#2My brother and I were tired of managing various job apps or companies we might want to work with some day in email or not at all. Kiter is a private repo for your job search - both what you have done and recommending what to do next based on where you are in your process.

From your Privacy Policy:
"8. Disclosure of Data We may disclose personal information that we collect, or you provide:
[...]
(i) to our subsidiaries and affiliates;"
Can you elaborate how you define "private repo" in this context while also stating that my personal information may be shared with "subsidiaries and affiliates" in the context of your Privacy Policy?

By private we meant that there is no social aspect of the product. We don't ever share user's name email etc. unless you opt to share it with recruiters at the companies you are applying to.

Thank you for the clarification. If my data will not be shared unless I opt-in, who are the affiliates and subsidiaries mentioned in your privacy policy?
Could the policy be amended to be more descriptive in how personal information will be used? For example, I observe that the policy outlines several definitions that are to be used throughout, but specifically those two terms are not defined for users of the service who may be privacy-minded users.

Yes - we have no affiliates and can revisit the policy to make that clearer. Thank you for pointing that out as we do not want any ambiguity for users.
Information is used to generate an automated in-app "Battery" score to give you an idea of how close you likely are to an offer across all applications.

#8As a native English-speaker in the US, the name seems problematic. "Kiter" is not a word and feels closer to a profanity rather than a reference to a kite. Further a "kite" doesn't have an aspirational metaphor in US-English-- in fact it is the opposite, "Go fly a kite" is a dismissive phrase. I don't think the name is viable.

Good points. We are both avid kite surfers so did some word magic to come up with Kiter. We also wanted to emulate the image of having a string from your kite so you can have control. A tether from the traditional spray and pray method of applications to something grounded. But being a word wasn't high on our criteria list. For example Uber and Spanx both aren't words.

Have you heard of "kiting" before? Kiter seems like a great name in this context, having job prospects predictably chasing you rather than you hopelessly chasing them.
