## Product Summary

Tenshoku Pad is a web application for managing a job search workflow. It includes an application tracker, job discovery/import workflows, source management, resume management, and encrypted private notes for applications.

The service is built for job seekers rather than advertisers or recruiters. It does not position itself as a recruiting marketplace, lead generation service, ad network, or resume database.

## Privacy Model

- Private application notes are encrypted in the browser before they are saved.
- Encrypted content uses AES-256-GCM with per-record data keys wrapped by the user's OpenPGP Curve25519 public key.
- The private key is protected by the user's master password.
- Application metadata such as company, role, status, source URL, salary, location, and description may currently be stored as normal server-side fields so the tracker can work.
- Visible metadata is used to run the product and is not intended for ads, recruiter spam, or data selling.
