Privacy Policy
Capitol Vectors is a non-partisan career platform for Georgetown students. This policy explains what we collect, how we use it, and the control you have over your information.
What we collect
Account details: your username, Georgetown email, and password (stored encrypted). Your email is used to verify you're a Georgetown student and to sign you in.
Profile details you choose to add: a work status and a profile photo.
Activity you create: forum posts and comments, saved jobs, the applications you track, and the salary, culture, and interview data points you contribute to the Intelligence workspace.
What's public and what's private
Public: your username, your work status (if you set one), your profile photo, and anything you post in the forum. These are visible to other members, and forum posts are visible to visitors.
Private: your email, the applications you track, and each individual data point you contribute. We never display these tied to your name.
How we use your information
- Run and secure the service, and verify Georgetown eligibility.
- Show your public profile details next to your posts.
- Power features like the Intelligence workspace, benchmarks, and job discovery.
Anonymized and aggregated use
We use the data you provide — Intelligence contributions, forum activity, and the applications you track — in anonymized and aggregated form to build features like pay and culture benchmarks and job discovery. Identifying details are removed before data is used this way. No anonymization method is perfect, and we don't guarantee it is.
Reviewing applications for job ideas
Your application tracker is private to you in the product. We may review tracked applications in anonymized form — not tied to who tracked them — to find roles, offices, and internships worth adding to the job board or Intelligence.
Sharing
We share your data with the service providers that host and run Capitol Vectors, and when the law requires it.
Your choices
You control your public work status and photo from your profile, and you can clear them anytime. You can delete your account — and everything tied to it — from your profile page; deletion is permanent.
Retention and security
We keep your information for as long as your account is active. We use industry-standard measures to protect it, though no system is perfectly secure.
Changes and contact
We'll update this policy as the product grows and note the date above. Questions? Email grahamwierzbicki@gmail.com.
