SkillEra Companion Browser Extensions
SkillEra offers two optional, single-purpose browser extensions that connect to your SkillEra account: the Career Suite (job-fit analysis, résumé & cover-letter drafting, LinkedIn optimization, and application tracking) and the Prompt Optimizer (refining your prompt wording on AI chat sites). They are separate extensions — each requests only the permissions it needs — and their data practices are described below. The rest of this policy applies to both.

Career Suite — page content it reads
The Career Suite only reads page content when you explicitly activate it (for example, clicking “Analyze fit” on a job posting or “Optimize” on your own LinkedIn profile). It reads only the specific text needed for that action to produce your result. It does not run analyses in the background across your browsing, does not transmit any page content unless you activate a feature, and does not collect your browsing history.

Prompt Optimizer — what it reads, and what it does not store
On supported AI chat sites (Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity) the Prompt Optimizer shows an optional “Optimize” button on your prompt box. It reads the text you have typed into that box only when you click Optimize, and sends that prompt to SkillEra to return an improved version (SkillEra generates the improved prompt using the third-party AI providers listed in Section 3). It does not read your conversation history, the AI's responses, or anything you do not submit for optimization; it only refines the wording of your request and leaves any code or content you included untouched. The feature is on by default but can be turned off entirely or per-site from the extension's popup, and each optimization uses tokens from your SkillEra balance. The Prompt Optimizer does not collect or store any résumé, profile, or other personal data — only your optimizer settings and session token are kept locally in the extension.

Authentication
Each extension authenticates using your existing skillera.io session or a scoped access token minted on skillera.io and stored locally in that extension. The token is limited to the extension's features and can be revoked at any time (“Sign out all extension sessions” on the Companion hub), which invalidates every existing token for your account.

Retention
Saved résumé, coaching context, and generated outputs (Career Suite) are retained until you delete them or close your account. Tracked applications are retained on a rolling window from their last update — 60 days on Basic and 190 days on Pro — after which they are cleared automatically; export to CSV to keep a permanent copy. The Prompt Optimizer stores no account-side data to retain.

Managing and deleting your data
On skillera.io/companion you can view, edit, export (CSV), and delete your Career Suite data at any time, including a one-click “Delete all my companion data” that permanently removes your saved profile, history, and tracked applications and signs the extension out. (The Prompt Optimizer keeps no such data — only local settings, which you can clear by removing the extension.) We do not sell this data and use it only to provide the features you request.
