Last updated: 2 October 2026. NextMove is a career and opportunity companion for students, graduates and early-career users. It is intended for adults aged 18+. This policy describes what the app actually does today; it is not legal advice.
When you create an account we store your name, email address and a bcrypt-hashed password (we never store your password in plain text). We also store the profile and learning details you choose to add — for example your goal, country, language, education, interests, skills, target roles, learning progress, practice attempts, projects, saved opportunities and posts you make in Circles. We do not ask for salary, government IDs or sensitive demographic data.
Project “evidence” files you upload (PDF, PNG, JPG, WEBP, DOCX or TXT, up to 8 MB each) are stored privately in managed object storage. Files are never public: every download goes through our backend, which verifies you are the owner and issues a short-lived (10-minute) authorized link. Other users cannot browse or access your files.
When you use Practice, the coach, or document drafting, your submission plus limited profile context (such as your goal, life stage and target roles) is sent to Anthropic’s Claude models, via our managed AI integration, purely to generate feedback or draft text for you. We never send your password. The AI does not make hiring decisions, does not invent your experience, and your content is not used to train third-party models through this integration.
We log a small set of privacy-safe product events (for example: onboarding started/completed, task completed, practice completed) with a whitelisted set of non-identifying properties. We do not place your private content, messages, uploaded files or secrets into analytics or routine logs. We do not use advertising identifiers and we do not track you across other companies’ apps or websites.
NextMove is currently in a free beta. Paid checkout is disabled, so no payment or card data is collected by the app at this time.
All traffic uses HTTPS/TLS. Passwords are hashed with bcrypt. Your sign-in token is kept in your device’s secure storage (Keychain / Keystore). Every request is checked so you can only access your own data.
We keep your data while your account is active. You can export or
delete your account at any time from Settings → Delete my account.
Deletion immediately removes your profile, progress, projects, practice attempts, coach
messages, saved opportunities, memberships, posts, documents, subscriptions and analytics
events from our active systems, and removes any file metadata. Uploaded file blobs become
permanently orphaned and unreachable and roll off per the storage provider’s retention
schedule.
NextMove is not directed to children and is intended for users aged 18 and over.
