Data Storage and Security

• Clearing your browser data will delete your saved resume

Future Premium Features: If you opt for cloud storage features:

• Your data will be encrypted in transit (HTTPS/TLS)
• Stored on secure, industry-standard cloud servers

Third-Party Services

We may use third-party services that collect information:

• Analytics: Privacy-focused analytics to understand usage patterns
• Hosting: Secure cloud hosting providers for our website and future premium services
• Payment Processors: Stripe or similar services for processing premium subscriptions (future)

These services have their own privacy policies and handle data according to their terms.

You have the right to:

• Access: Request a copy of your data (premium users)
• Deletion: Request deletion of your account and data
• Correction: Update or correct your information
• Export: Download your resume data in standard formats
• Opt-out: Unsubscribe from communications at any time

For the free version, you can simply clear your browser’s localStorage to delete all local data.

Cookies and Tracking

We use minimal cookies for:

• Maintaining your session
• Remembering your preferences
• Essential security features

We do not use advertising cookies or cross-site tracking. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, though some features may not work properly.

Children’s Privacy

Our service is not intended for users under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe we have collected information from a child, please contact us immediately.

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. When we introduce premium features that require server storage, we will:

• Notify you prominently on our website
• Update the “Last updated” date
• Provide clear opt-in choices for premium features
• Maintain the free, privacy-focused version

Your continued use of our service after changes means you accept the updated policy.
