The Persona page said contact details, date of birth, salary and equality data "stay out of every prompt". That's true for the AI that writes CVs, letters and answers, but not for the form-filling agent, which is also an LLM:

  • it gets your name, contact details and date of birth in its task, so it can type them in;
  • it gets your salary and equality answers when a form asks for them.

Changes (wording only, no behaviour change)

  • Privacy panel: "What the AI never sees" is now "Where your private details go":
    • the writing AI never sees these details;
    • the form-filling agent is given what forms ask for;
    • the job-board password reaches no AI.
  • Identity, salary and equality notes: each now says the data goes only to the agent filling in forms and is never used for writing.
  • README privacy table: one row for the writing, scoring and question-reading calls, and one for the form-filling agent.

Tests

  • tsc, lint and build pass.
  • Playwright: 13/13. The first run had two timing failures on pages this change doesn't touch, and two reruns both passed.

…I never sees them

The Persona page said contact details, date of birth, salary and equality
data "stay out of every prompt". That holds for the AI that writes CVs,
letters and answers, but not for the form-filling agent, which is also an
LLM: it gets name, contact details and date of birth in its task, and
salary or equality answers when a form asks. The panel ("Where your private
details go"), the Identity, salary and equality notes, and the README's
privacy table now say so. The job-site password still reaches no model.
