Current control position

Blacklight limits collection to the service path and does not operate an advertising-profile business. Applicant content, operational records, partner configuration, and billing evidence are separated by purpose and access boundary.

What Blacklight currently does

These statements describe implemented controls and their limits in plain language. They are not a certification, legal opinion, or substitute for an institution-specific contract requirement.

01

Blacklight collects the information needed to generate, deliver, and support resume requests: intake details, uploaded documents, selected targets, delivery records, and support or privacy follow-up when needed.

02

That data stays tied to the service path rather than being reused for ad targeting, third-party tracking, or unrelated marketing profiling.

03

Special events default to aggregate-only organizer reporting. Sponsors do not receive participant names, contact information, resumes, request logs, portal access, or recruiting rights merely because they funded access.

04

The public site is intentionally cookie-light and tracking-light, so the normal assumptions people make about ad-tech stacks do not apply here.

05

Launch verification stores bounded operational evidence, including the authorized actor, active campaign, configuration fingerprint, and a hash of the confirmed public link rather than a reusable raw link token.

06

Delivered resume and cover-letter DOCX files stay plain-text and single-column for applicant tracking system (ATS) compatibility. They also use Word headings, lists, language information, and document properties to work better with assistive technology.
