This page says, in plain words, what we keep about you and why. It is an early draft for a Beta service.

Who we are

MEC Research Labs Ltd. (meclabs.ca), Vancouver, BC, Canada runs mecintel. It is early work, provided in Beta.

What we collect

• Your account: an email and a password. Only our sign-in service handles the password. The apps never see it. Profile, Career and Health are by invitation only.
• Profile keeps basics: name, photo, date of birth, timezone, language and pronouns. They are kept readable on our server, so the apps you use can show them. Some history, for example your profile change history, is sealed with a key that only your devices hold.
• Career keeps your jobs, wins, skills and schooling. The most private fields are sealed (encrypted) on our server. The key is kept apart from the database.

Why

We keep this so the apps can do their one job for you. We keep only what an app needs. We do not sell your data.

Who else sees it

• Cloudflare: our traffic runs through it.
• Resend: it sends our sign-in emails.
• Anthropic: only when you ask Career to read an old resume. Career uses Claude, an AI model made by Anthropic, so that text is sent to Anthropic to be read.

How long we keep it

Every night we make an encrypted backup. The server that makes it cannot open it. When you delete something, it leaves our live database at once. Copies in the encrypted backups are gone within about 35 days.

Recovery of your sealed history is off until you turn it on. If you lose every device and you did not turn it on, that history cannot be opened again.

Your choices

• Delete what you added, inside each app.
• You can ask us to close your account or to answer a privacy question. Write to contact@mecintel.com.

Cookies

The apps use one cookie to keep you signed in. This page has no forms, no cookies of its own, and no tracking or ad scripts.
