Privacy Policy

1. Your resume stays on your device

The free ATS Score Checker reads and scores your resume locally in your browser using open-source libraries. Your file is never uploaded, stored, or transmitted to our servers or any third party. Closing or refreshing the page removes it from memory.

2. Information we collect — only with your consent

We only receive personal information that you choose to send us, for example when you:

This may include your name, email address, phone/WhatsApp number, and the content and personal information (PII) inside the reference resume you share. You share this on your own consent, only for delivering the service you opted for. We do not run hidden trackers or sell your data to advertisers.

3. How we use it

We use the details you share solely to deliver the specific service or response you requested — nothing else. Your phone number is additionally retained as your customer identification and may be used to send you occasional promotional updates about our services. You can withdraw this consent and opt out at any time, and we will stop and remove you immediately.

We may also use anonymized, aggregated data (with no personal identifiers) for business analytics — for example, to understand which services are popular or how to improve. This anonymized data cannot be traced back to you.

4. Data retention — content deleted, billing kept 6 months

Any content or documents you share to fulfil a request — such as your reference resume, the delivered resume, files, message details, name and email — are deleted within 24 hours of delivery being sent and confirmed (or of the request being completed). We do not store this content beyond 24 hours, and we do not share it with any third party. If a third party is ever genuinely required, we take your consent first.

The only other information we retain is your phone/WhatsApp number, kept solely as your customer identification and for occasional promotional updates. You may withdraw your consent and have it removed at any time.

5. We never store or share your data

We do not store your content-based data, and we do not share, rent, or sell your information or documents with anyone. The only people who ever see your details are those at The Corporate Chai working on your request.

6. Encrypted, secured conversations on WhatsApp

Almost all communication with us happens on WhatsApp, where every message is end-to-end encrypted by default — meaning only you and we can read them.

7. Third-party links

Our site links to WhatsApp, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, OneDrive and similar services. Once you leave our site, their own privacy policies apply.

8. Your rights & how to raise a grievance

You can ask us to delete your data or withdraw your consent (including for promotional updates) at any time. For general support, email our team or message us on WhatsApp. For any privacy grievance, data-access request, or suspected data breach, write to our dedicated grievance email: grievance.thecorporatechai@gmail.com.

9. Our privacy commitments

We align our practices with the principles of ISO/IEC 27701:2019 (Privacy Information Management / PIMS) and India's Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act, 2023. Please note: this is a self-alignment with those principles; we are not officially certified.

We are also fully transparent in how we operate: we never push you to buy additional services, and we never spam or harass you.

10. No defamation

No competitor, individual or entity has the right to make false allegations against, or to defame, The Corporate Chai — digitally, on social media, offline, or via comments anywhere. Any such act may lead us to file for defamation. Genuine concerns should be raised with us directly and pursued only through lawful channels.
