Privacy Policy

Defynd (“we”, “us”, or “our”) values your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information across all digital tools and browser extensions developed under the Defynd brand, including RecOS and others we may release in the future.

By using our tools, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

1. Tools Covered by This Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to all products and extensions created by Defynd, including:

• RecOS – A Chrome Extension that provides AI-powered candidate evaluation on LinkedIn

• Additional browser extensions, tools, and services released by Defynd in the future

2. Our Privacy Commitments

• We do not sell, rent, or transfer your data to third parties.

• We do not collect personally identifiable information unless required and explicitly consented to by the user.

• We do not use your data for advertising or tracking purposes.

• We design all tools with privacy-first principles and minimize or eliminate data collection wherever possible.

3. Information We Collect

Most Defynd tools, including RecOS, do not collect or transmit any personal or sensitive information.

However, in some cases, tools may require temporary access to content in the browser for functionality (e.g., reading visible content on a LinkedIn profile to provide analysis). This data:

• Is processed entirely on your device

• Is never transmitted to external servers

• Is not stored or shared in any way

If future tools require additional permissions or collect specific types of data, this will be clearly stated during installation and in documentation.

4. Chrome Permissions Justification

To provide functionality like analyzing LinkedIn profiles, RecOS and similar tools may request:

• ActiveTab: To analyze content of the current tab only after you explicitly activate the extension

• Scripting: To safely inject code that reads public content (like LinkedIn text sections) in your browser

• Storage (if applicable): Only to store local preferences or settings on your device. We do not access cloud-based user data.

We never request or use permissions beyond what is essential for core functionality.

5. No Remote Code Execution

All our browser extensions run locally and do not fetch or execute remote scripts. This ensures user safety and eliminates the risk of unvetted behavior.

6. Data Security

Although we do not collect or transmit personal data, we follow best practices for secure development, sandboxing, and permissions management. Any tool that stores preferences locally does so using secure Chrome APIs.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as we release new tools or introduce new capabilities. If changes are significant, we will notify users through an update or on our website.

9. Required Certifications (for Chrome Web Store)

We certify that:

• We do not sell or transfer user data to third parties, outside of the approved use cases

• We do not use or transfer user data for purposes unrelated to the single purpose of the extension

• We do not use or transfer user data to determine creditworthiness or for lending purposes
