Plain English, no legal maze. Here's exactly what we collect and why.
Last updated: August 2026
RoleShift (roleshift.co.uk) is a UK job board for career-changers. If you have any questions about this policy or your data, email us at roleshift.app@gmail.com.
We collect only what you give us directly:
We do not currently use tracking cookies, analytics pixels, or third-party advertising trackers on this site.
We will never sell your data, and we will never share it with third parties for marketing purposes.
Some features send small pieces of information to services we use, only when you use them:
Ask RoleShift. If you use the on-page helper, the messages you type are sent to our assistant service and, when full answers are enabled, processed by Anthropic to generate a reply. Anthropic states that data sent through its API is not used to train its models. Replies are generated automatically; please do not include sensitive personal details in your messages.
Location search. If you type a place or postcode into the location filter, that text is sent to postcodes.io, a free UK geocoding service, to find its map coordinates. Nothing else about you is sent with it, and we do not store it.
Saved roles. Roles you save are kept only in your own browser's local storage. They are never sent to RoleShift.
Signups are processed through Formspree, a third-party form service, and land in our email inbox. The website is hosted by Netlify, and job listings are served from a database hosted by Supabase; both keep standard operational logs. Some of these providers process data outside the UK under their own published safeguards. We don't currently operate our own database or user accounts - there's no password, profile, or account to worry about, because none exists yet.
Under UK GDPR, you have the right to:
To exercise any of these, just email roleshift.app@gmail.com - we'll action it promptly.
This site does not currently set tracking or advertising cookies. If that changes (for example, if we add analytics to understand site usage), we'll update this policy and ask for your consent where required.
This policy is written to be genuinely clear rather than legally dense. If anything is unclear, or you'd simply rather ask a person, email roleshift.app@gmail.com.
