Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 10, 2026

The short version: Callback has no accounts, no analytics trackers, and no server of ours that stores your information. Your profile, resume, and applications live on your device. We don't collect your data.

Who we are

Callback ("the app," "we") is an iOS application that helps students and early-career job seekers discover internships and jobs, prepare applications, and track their progress. For any privacy question, contact us at ianroyes@gmail.com.

Information stored on your device

Everything you enter into Callback stays on your device, saved in the app's private storage:

Your profile (name, school, graduation year, resume text, skills, and optional Quick Answers such as email, phone, LinkedIn URL, work authorization, and GPA)
Your queued and tracked applications, generated cover letters, and follow-up drafts
Saved jobs, streak history, and app preferences

None of this is transmitted to us. We have no ability to access it. Deleting the app deletes this data.

Location

If you enable "Jobs Near You," the app requests a one-time location fix from iOS to determine your general area (city and state). This is used only on your device to rank nearby listings, is stored only in your local profile, and is never sent to us or to any third party. You can turn it off at any time in the app or in iOS Settings.

Network requests the app makes

To show you live job listings, the app fetches data directly from third-party services. As with any internet request, those services receive your IP address and standard request metadata when the app contacts them:

Job listing feeds — public job APIs and the community-maintained internship listings repository (fetched from GitHub) to populate your deck and the Fresh Drops feed.
Company logos — a public favicon/logo service is used to display company logos on job cards.
Job applications — when you tap through to apply, you leave the app and interact directly with the employer's or job board's website, which is governed by that site's own privacy policy. Callback never submits an application on your behalf.

Your profile contents, resume, and application history are never included in these requests.

Purchases

Subscriptions (Callback Pro Monthly and the Semester Pass) are processed entirely by Apple through your App Store account. We never see your payment details. Apple's handling of your purchase information is described in Apple's privacy policy.

Notifications

Follow-up reminders and the optional daily Fresh Drops nudge are local notifications, scheduled and delivered entirely on your device. No push notification server is involved.

Analytics and tracking

The app contains no third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking SDKs. We do not track you across apps or websites. We may review the aggregated, anonymized statistics Apple provides to all developers through App Store Connect (such as total download counts), which contain no personal information.

Children

Callback is intended for users aged 16 and older and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Your choices

All profile fields are optional — the app works without them.
Location and notifications are opt-in and can be revoked in iOS Settings at any time.
Deleting the app permanently removes all locally stored data.

Changes to this policy

If we ever change how the app handles data — for example, by adding optional accounts or sync — we will update this policy and note the change in the app's release notes before it takes effect.
