The panel on a Google posting, with today’s figures.

Where it works

On its own

LinkedIn, Indeed, Glassdoor, Handshake and Wellfound. The panel opens at the bottom right of a posting.
With a click

Any other job page that names its employer for search engines, which covers Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workday and most company career sites. Click PERM Tracker in the toolbar.

Reading the panel

PERM cases published: Green card labor certifications in DOL's quarterly files: decided cases only.
Certified: The share of decided cases DOL certified, once the employer has 30 or more decided. Fewer, and the panel says it's too few to say.
Waiting at DOL now: Its cases still open in DOL's live case status, which we check every day.
H-1B applications (LCAs): Labor condition applications in DOL's files: the first step of an H-1B, not the visa itself.
Possible match: The posting's name and DOL's didn't match exactly, so the panel names what it matched. Check it's the same company.
No record: Nothing under that name. Companies often file under their legal name, so it may still sponsor under another.

Privacy

What's sent: The employer's name as the posting prints it, to permtracker.app. With it, the extension's version number.
What isn't: The page's address, the job's title or text, anything you type, your browsing, and cookies: the request carries none, signed in or not.
What's kept: Each answer, in your browser's session storage for six hours, so going back to a posting doesn't ask again. It's cleared when the browser closes.
On our side: A daily count of lookups. Like any site, our web server keeps a request log for 14 days, and each line holds your connection's address and the name asked about. Nothing ties a lookup to an account, and nothing else is kept. Requests reach us through Cloudflare, like every visit to this site.
Tracking: None. No analytics, no ads, no third parties.

What it asks Chrome for, and why

Read the five job sites: To read the employer's name on a posting. On LinkedIn the whole site is matched, since it opens a posting from the feed without a new page; anywhere that isn't a posting, nothing is read.
Active tab, and scripting: Only when you click the toolbar button on another job page: it reads that one page's posting, once.
Storage: The six-hour session cache above.
permtracker.app: The one server it asks.

The rest of how this site handles data is in the privacy policy. Questions go to support@permtracker.app.

Building your own?

The extension asks one endpoint, /v1/lookup/employer, and it needs no key. It’s documented with the rest of the API. PERM Tracker isn’t affiliated with the U.S. government, and nothing here is legal advice.
