What stays on your laptop, what touches our server, and a straight word on the AI.
Stored in a SQLite file inside your app folder. We can't read it. Wipe the file, it's gone.
Just enough to keep your licence honest and the AI features working. No analytics, no trackers, no resale.
Every pitch you send goes straight from your Gmail to the employer. Bushpass is the typewriter that helps you draft, queue and log them. Your Gmail is the postbox. We never see, store or relay the message.
Translation: Bushpass works on a plane, on a 4G hotspot in the middle of WA, and at the back of a hostel where the WiFi only does Facebook.
CV polish, email rewriter, payslip scanner, eligibility checks. All of it runs through a regular language model. Clever, yes. Perfect, no.
It can get a date wrong or miss context. Always read before you save or send. Treat its take as a mate's opinion at the pub, not gospel. We tell you this on page one of the app too.
Gatekeeper, the macOS security layer, shows a “cannot verify this app” dialog on first launch for any app it hasn’t seen before. On macOS Tahoe (26.x) the supported approval path is System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway. Standard behaviour for any small-shop desktop app without an Apple Developer ID.
We walk through the exact clicks on the install page. ~30 seconds, you only do it once per Mac. From the second launch onward, Bushpass behaves like any other app.
“Apple could not verify Bushpass is free of malware.”
Click Done, open System Settings → Privacy & Security, scroll to the Security block, click Open Anyway. Relaunch, click Open. Forever clean from there.
The full data-handling story is in the privacy policy. The legal fine print sits in the terms of service. Both kept short and skimmable, no Latin.
