Privacy Policy

Last updated: December 2025

1. Introduction

REVEAL, operated by Reveal Technologies LLC ("we", "our", or "us"), is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our platform.

2. Our Core Philosophy

Your data works for you, not against you. This principle guides every decision we make:

  • We will never sell your data. Your information is not a product. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties for advertising or marketing.
  • Data collection serves your success. Every piece of information we gather exists to build a complete picture of who you are as a developer—so you can be matched with opportunities that truly fit.
  • Recruiters pay for access, not your data. Our business model is built on recruiters paying to connect with verified talent. You are the talent we serve, not the product we monetize.
  • Respect is non-negotiable. Your career journey, skills, and professional story deserve the highest level of care. We handle your information with that understanding.

3. Information We Collect

We collect information you provide directly to us, including:

  • Account information (name, email, profile details)
  • Professional information (work history, skills, experience level)
  • GitHub data (when you connect your account)
  • Assessment responses and results
  • Usage data and analytics

GitHub Integration

When you connect your GitHub account, we access your repositories through GitHub Apps with read-only permissions. You select which repositories to analyze. We access:

  • Repository metadata (name, description, languages used)
  • Commit history and patterns
  • Code content for analysis purposes

Important: We do not store or retain your source code. Code is processed in real-time to extract insights about your skills, coding patterns, and technical abilities. Only the derived insights and metadata are stored—never the code itself.

4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use essential cookies and similar technologies to operate the Service:

  • Authentication cookies: To keep you signed in and secure your session
  • Preference cookies: To remember your settings and preferences
  • Security tokens: To protect against cross-site request forgery and other attacks

We do not use advertising cookies or sell data to advertisers. We may use basic analytics to understand how users interact with the Service and to improve functionality.

5. AI Processing and Synthesis

Important: REVEAL uses artificial intelligence to process, analyze, and synthesize your information. By using our Service, you acknowledge and agree that:

  • Your profile data, assessment responses, and GitHub information may be processed by AI systems
  • AI-generated content (including profile summaries, skill assessments, and match reasoning) will be visible to recruiters
  • While we strive for accuracy and consistent AI behavior, we cannot guarantee the output of AI systems
  • AI-generated insights are meant to supplement, not replace, human judgment in hiring decisions
  • You are responsible for reviewing AI-generated content on your profile for accuracy

6. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Provide and maintain our services
  • Generate skill assessments and verified badges
  • Match developers with relevant job opportunities
  • Improve and personalize your experience
  • Communicate with you about our services

7. Data Sharing and Third-Party Services

We do not sell your personal information. We may share your information with:

  • Recruiters (only your public profile, with your consent)
  • Service providers who assist in our operations
  • Legal authorities when required by law

Third-Party Service Providers

To provide the Service, your data may be processed by the following categories of third-party providers:

  • Clerk: Authentication and identity management
  • Stripe: Payment processing (for credit purchases)
  • GitHub: Repository access via GitHub Apps (read-only, user-selected repos)
  • AI Providers (Google, Anthropic): Content analysis, skill assessment, and profile synthesis
  • Cloud Infrastructure: Secure hosting and data storage

Each provider is bound by their own privacy policies and data protection obligations. We select providers who maintain appropriate security measures.

8. Data Retention

We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you with the Service. Specifically:

  • Account data: Retained until you delete your account
  • Assessment results: Retained as part of your profile for the lifetime of your account
  • GitHub analysis: Insights retained; source code is never stored
  • Transaction records: Retained as required for legal and accounting purposes

Upon account deletion, we will delete or anonymize your personal data within 30 days, except where we are required to retain certain information for legal, accounting, or legitimate business purposes.

9. Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. In the event of a data breach that affects your personal information, we will notify you and any applicable regulators as required by law.

10. International Data Transfers

REVEAL is based in the United States. If you access the Service from outside the United States, your information will be transferred to, stored, and processed in the United States and potentially other countries where our service providers operate. These countries may have different data protection laws than your country of residence.

By using the Service, you consent to the transfer of your information to the United States and other jurisdictions as described in this Privacy Policy. We take steps to ensure your data receives adequate protection in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

11. Children's Privacy

The Service is not intended for children under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 18. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under 18, we will take steps to delete such information promptly. If you believe we may have collected information from a child under 18, please contact us at contact@revealdev.com.

12. Your Rights

You have the right to:

  • Access your personal data
  • Correct inaccurate data
  • Request deletion of your data
  • Export your data
  • Opt out of marketing communications

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at contact@revealdev.com. We will respond to your request within 30 days.

13. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you by email (using the email address associated with your account) or by posting a prominent notice on the Service prior to the changes becoming effective. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically.

Your continued use of the Service after any changes to this Privacy Policy constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
