Your privacy
Last updated 11 November 2026
Findly is a small test version of a job-matching app for shop and retail jobs around Manchester. Only invited testers can use it. This page explains, in plain English, what we keep about you, why, and how to get it deleted.
What we keep
- Your email address, so you can sign in with a code.
- Your preferences: your postcode (to work out distances; it’s never shown to anyone), how far you’d travel, the kinds of work, hours and pay you want, and the things you’d rather avoid, including anything you type in “Tell us in your own words”.
- What you do with jobs: jobs you save or hide, and any problems you report.
- Your goals on the “Your climb” checklist, and the jobs you mark as applied with their status.
- Your profile picture, if you add one. It’s shrunk on your phone first, which also removes hidden details such as where the photo was taken. Only you can see it.
- Details from your CV, if you add one: past job titles, skills, roughly how many years of retail experience you have, and a one-line summary. We don’t keep the CV file itself, or your name, address or contact details from it.
- A sign-in cookie, so you stay signed in. We don’t use advertising or tracking cookies, and we don’t use analytics.
Why we keep it
Only to run Findly for you: to show jobs that suit you, remember your choices, and fix problems you tell us about. As a tester, your feedback also helps us improve the app. We never sell your information or use it for advertising.
Who helps us run Findly
These services handle some information on our behalf:
- Supabase stores your account, profile picture and the information above, on servers in London.
- Vercel runs the website.
- Brevo sends your sign-in emails.
- Anthropic (the AI) reads job adverts to work out what each job involves. If you use “Tell us in your own words”, your sentence is sent to it to turn into avoid-list items. If you add a CV, the AI reads it once to pick out your experience; it’s told not to pick out personal details, and the file isn’t stored afterwards. Your email is not sent.
- postcodes.io is sent your postcode when you look it up, to find your area.
- OpenStreetMap provides the map tiles on the preferences page.
Job adverts come from Reed.co.uk. When you apply, or open “See what staff say” on Indeed or Glassdoor, you go to their websites and their own privacy policies apply.
How long we keep it
Until you delete your account, or until the test ends, when we delete testers’ information.
Your rights
- Delete everything yourself: go to My profile and choose Delete my account. Your account, profile picture and everything linked to it is deleted straight away. You can also remove your CV details or picture on their own from your profile.
- Ask for a copy of your information, or ask us to correct it, by emailing hello@findlyjobs.co.uk.
- If you’re unhappy with how we’ve handled your information, you can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ico.org.uk).
