How We Use Your Data

Your data is used to:

We do not use analytics or tracking services. We do not sell or share your data with third parties. Our infrastructure providers (Vercel for hosting, Turso for database) process data only as needed to operate the service.

Children's Privacy

The Career HUD is intended for users aged 13 and older. Age confirmation is required at registration. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has created an account, please contact us so we can remove their data.

Data Retention

Your data is retained for as long as your account is active. As this is a proof-of-concept application, data may be deleted without notice during development or if the project is discontinued.

Proof of Concept Disclaimer

The Career HUD is an AI-generated prototype. Assessment results are not scientifically validated and should not be used as the basis for real career decisions. This tool is for educational and exploratory purposes only.
