Cue Privacy Policy
Last updated: 8 October 2026
Cue is an app for Mac, iPhone and iPad that helps you find roles, build your résumé and cover letters, practice interviews, and take part in interviews and meetings. It is provided by cue ("we"). This policy explains what Cue does with your information.
The short version
• Cue has no accounts, no advertising, no analytics and no tracking.
• Audio is turned into text on your device and is never saved or sent anywhere.
• Your profile, documents, roles, transcripts and summaries are stored on your device.
• When you ask for AI help, Cue sends the text needed for that request to Google's Gemini service.
• When you search for jobs, the words you type are sent to the job boards. Your profile is not.
What stays on your device
Audio. Cue listens through your microphone during a session you start. On a Mac, if you allow it, Cue also listens to audio playing on the Mac, so it can hear the other side of a call. The audio is turned into text by Apple's on-device speech recognition and discarded as it is transcribed. It is never saved and never leaves your device.
Your content. Your profile (name, headline, résumé, skills and notes), your stories, the roles you add with their job descriptions and application status, the résumés and cover letters you build (including contact details you type into them, such as an email address or phone number), and your session transcripts, notes, summaries, coaching and practice scores are stored in the app's private storage on that device.
What Cue works out for you. Readiness scores, your daily plan, progress, delivery figures, job match scores, keyword coverage and the fact check of written documents are all calculated on your device.
Nothing is synced between your devices, and none of this is sent to us. Files you export or share, such as a PDF of your résumé, go only where you send them.
What is sent to generate help
Some features use an AI service. They are: live help during an interview or meeting, interview preparation, practice interviews and their coaching, session summaries, thank-you notes, story suggestions, drafting or tailoring a résumé, writing a cover letter, and reading the skills in your profile or the keywords in a job description.
When you use one of these, Cue sends the text needed for that request to Google's Gemini models through Google Firebase. Depending on the request, this includes excerpts of the conversation transcript, your profile, résumé and stories, a résumé you have built in the app, and the role and job description you entered. In a practice interview, the question is also sent so that it can be read aloud. Only text is sent, never audio.
This text is used to produce the response shown to you. Cue has no accounts, so it is not linked to your name or to a profile of you. We do not keep a copy of it. Google processes it under its own terms, which may include processing on servers outside your country; see https://firebase.google.com/support/privacy and https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/terms.
To check that requests come from a genuine copy of Cue, the app uses Firebase App Check and Apple's DeviceCheck. These confirm the app's authenticity and do not identify you. As with any internet service, Google also receives the technical information needed to deliver and protect the service, such as your device's network address.
Job search
When you search under Find Jobs, the words you type in the search field are sent to the job boards Cue reads: Remotive (remotive.com), Jobicy (jobicy.com) and Remote OK (remoteok.com). They return their public listings. Like any website you contact, they also see your device's network address.
Nothing else is sent to them: not your profile, your résumé, your skills, or the place you entered. Listings are compared with your skills on your device. Cue keeps a copy of each board's listings on your device for a few hours so that it doesn't have to ask again.
Opening a posting or applying takes you to the board's own website, where that board's privacy policy applies.
Purchases
Subscriptions are bought through Apple. Cue learns whether you have an active subscription and never sees your payment details. Apple's privacy policy applies to the purchase.
What Cue does not do
• It does not ask you to create an account or sign in.
• It does not show advertising, use analytics, or track you across apps or websites.
• It does not sell or rent your information.
• It does not record or read your screen. macOS groups audio capture under "Screen & System Audio Recording"; Cue uses only the audio.
• It does not listen until you start a session, and it shows an indicator for as long as it is listening.
Other people on your calls
Cue can transcribe what other people say on a call you are part of, and that text may be included in what is sent to generate help. You are responsible for telling them and for following the laws and policies that apply to you.
Keeping and deleting your data
Your content stays on your device until you delete it. You can delete individual roles, documents, stories and sessions in the app, or erase everything in Settings › Privacy › Erase All Data. On iPhone and iPad, deleting the app also removes its data. On a Mac, use Erase All Data before deleting the app.
We hold no copy of your content, so there is nothing for us to delete. Text sent to generate help is handled by Google as described in its terms.
Your choices and rights
You decide what goes into Cue and when it is used: nothing is sent to the AI service unless you use a feature that needs it, and nothing is sent to the job boards unless you search.
Depending on where you live, you may have legal rights over your personal information, such as the right to see it, correct it or have it deleted. Because your content lives on your own device, you can do these things yourself in the app. If you have a question or a request we can help with, write to us at the address below.
Children
Cue is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them.
Changes
If this policy changes, the date at the top will change, and significant changes will be noted in the app's release notes.
