Resume Tailor is a Chrome extension built to help job seekers compare their resume against job descriptions. It is a personal project and is not affiliated with Google, LinkedIn, Indeed, Glassdoor, Dice, ZipRecruiter, or any other platform.
What this extension collects The extension stores two things on your device:
Your resume text Your Gemini API key
Both are saved in chrome.storage.local, which means they stay in your browser on your own machine. They are never sent to any server, never synced, and never shared with anyone. When you click Analyze, your resume text and the job description text from the page you are viewing are sent to Google’s Gemini API to generate the analysis. That is the only moment anything leaves your device. Once the analysis is done, the result is shown to you and nothing is saved anywhere beyond your current session. The extension does not collect your name, email address, location, or browsing history. It does not track what pages you visit. It does not have a backend server, a database, or user accounts of any kind.
Google Gemini API The AI analysis is powered by Google’s Gemini API. When you click Analyze, your resume and the job description are sent to Google for processing. Google’s own privacy policy applies to that request and can be found at https://policies.google.com/privacy. The Gemini API key you use is your own personal key. Resume Tailor never has access to it beyond storing it locally on your device for your own use.
Permissions The extension requests the following permissions: activeTab — to read the job description text from the job posting page you are currently on. scripting — to inject a script into the active page that extracts the job description text. storage — to save your resume and API key locally on your device so you do not have to re-enter them every time. host permission for generativelanguage.googleapis.com — to send the resume and job description to Google’s Gemini API when you click Analyze. No other permissions are requested.
Clearing your data You can remove your saved resume and API key at any time by going to the extension’s Settings page and clearing the fields. Uninstalling the extension removes all locally stored data automatically.
Children This extension is intended for adults who are actively job searching. It is not directed at anyone under the age of 13 and no such data is knowingly collected.
