Who we are
TheBigMove.ai finds senior roles that fit you, and works for you, not for employers. For any question about your data, or to complain, write to business@thebigmove.ai.
What we collect, and why
| What | Why we need it |
|---|---|
| Your name, email address and a password (stored only as a one-way hash, never readable) | To create your account, let you log in and send you sign-up and password-reset codes |
| Your CV file (PDF or Word) and the text we read from it | To build your profile, so we can find roles that fit your experience |
| Your profile: headline, level, years of experience, function, domain, industries, skills and past roles | To match you with roles. You can check and correct everything we read from your CV |
| Your search: target roles, minimum fixed pay, cities, work mode and deal-breakers | To search for roles you want and leave out the ones you don't |
| What matters to you, if you add it: kinds of company, industries to look for or avoid, priorities such as P&L or reporting line, travel, moving city, notice period | To rank roles by what you care about, and show how each one measures up |
| Your search in your own words, if you type or speak it | To fill in your search for you. We keep the text with your search; we never keep a recording of your voice |
| Key achievements you add (scope, results, credentials) | To show you how you fit each role |
| Companies you hide, and roles you save, hide or rate | To stop showing you those companies and to improve what we show you |
| Phone number, city and profile photo, if you add them | Shown only to you, on your account. Not used for matching and never shared |
| What you agreed to, and when (for example, using your profile to find roles) | So we only use your data the way you allowed, and can show it |
| Technical records: when you logged in, when a search ran, errors | To keep the service working and secure. These records contain your account number, not your CV or your email address |
We read your CV with our own software, on our own servers. We do not send your CV to any outside AI service.
If you use Describe it in your own words, we send only those words, with your level and function, to Amazon Bedrock, Amazon's AI service, to turn them into search settings. Never your CV, name or email. It runs Amazon's Nova model in AWS's Asia-Pacific regions, and AWS does not keep the words or use them to train its models. If you use the mic, your voice goes to Amazon Transcribe in Mumbai, which turns it into text and keeps no recording.
Where your data is kept
All of it is stored on Amazon Web Services (AWS) in Mumbai, India. CV files and photos are stored privately and encrypted, and only you can open them through the app.
Our web pages reach you through AWS's worldwide delivery network (CloudFront). It passes your requests on to Mumbai and does not keep your personal data.
Who else sees any of it
- Amazon Web Services hosts the app, sends our emails and runs the optional AI and voice features described above. AWS stores the data but does not use it for its own purposes.
- JSearch, the job-search service we use (through RapidAPI), receives search phrases built from your target roles and cities, such as “VP Engineering Bengaluru”. It never receives your name, email address or CV.
- Company career sites (Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, SmartRecruiters): we only read their public job lists and send nothing about you.
We do not sell your data or show you ads. We do not send your profile to employers or recruiters. If a later feature would introduce you to an employer, it will ask you first.
Cookies and emails
We use one cookie, to keep you logged in. It lasts 7 days, or until you sign out. We use no advertising or tracking cookies, and nothing else is stored in your browser.
The only emails we send are your sign-up and password-reset codes, from no-reply@thebigmove.ai. No newsletters or marketing.
How long we keep it
- Your account, CV and profile: until you delete your account. We keep your newest CV and the one before it; older CV files are deleted when you upload a new one.
- When you delete your account: everything is removed from the live system straight away, CV files and photo included. Database backups, used only to recover from a failure, keep a copy for up to 35 days, and then that copy is gone too.
- Technical records: 30 days.
- Sign-up and password-reset codes: 15 minutes, stored only in a form nobody can read back.
Your choices and rights
On the Settings page you can:
- See and download everything we hold about you (“Export my data”).
- Correct your details, profile, search and achievements at any time.
- Withdraw consent to profile matching (“Use my profile to find roles”). We stop searching for you straight away, and you can turn it back on whenever you like.
- Delete your account and all of your data.
For anything else, write to business@thebigmove.ai.
Changes to this notice
If we change what we do with your data, we will update this notice and ask you to agree again when the change needs your consent.
