2.1 Account Information

When you create an account we collect information such as your email address and credentials required to authenticate you.

2.2 CV / Resume Data

The Service allows you to enter information that may be included in a CV/resume, such as your name, contact information, work history, education, skills, and other career-related information ("CV Data").

2.3 Job Description and Tailoring Inputs

If you use tailoring features, you may submit job descriptions, role requirements, or other text that you want to tailor your CV to ("Tailoring Inputs").

2.4 Usage and Device Data

We may collect information about how you use the Service, such as pages visited, features used, timestamps, approximate location derived from IP address, device/browser characteristics, and diagnostics.

• Processing your requests and delivering requested outputs (for example, CV exports).
• Improving, monitoring, and securing the Service (fraud prevention, debugging, performance).
• Communicating with you about the Service (service messages, confirmations, support).
• Marketing and promotion of our Service. CV Data may be used to influence our own marketing (for example, understanding which features are most valuable or what templates are popular), but your CV Data is not sold or provided to third parties for their marketing.

4. How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share information only as described below:

• Service providers: We use vendors to help us operate the Service (for example, hosting, database storage, authentication, email delivery, analytics, payment processing, and content-generation infrastructure). These providers are permitted to process data only on our instructions.
• Legal and safety: We may disclose information if required by law or if we believe disclosure is necessary to protect rights, safety, prevent fraud, or respond to lawful requests.
• Business transfers: If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, or sale of assets, information may be transferred as part of that transaction.

Important: We do not provide your CV Data to third parties for their use or marketing.

5. Cookies and Similar Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies only to the extent necessary to provide the Service and keep it secure. These may include cookies required for authentication, session management, security, load balancing, and user preferences.

We do not intentionally use non-essential cookies for advertising purposes. If we introduce analytics or marketing cookies in the future, we will update this Privacy Policy and, where required, provide appropriate choices.

6. Data Retention

We retain personal information only as long as necessary to provide the Service and for legitimate business purposes such as maintaining records, complying with legal obligations, resolving disputes, and enforcing agreements.

You may be able to delete CVs and other content within the Service. Some information may remain in logs or backups for a limited time.

7. Security

We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect information. However, no system can be guaranteed 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. Your Choices

You may have the ability to:

• Access and update certain account information.
• Delete certain CVs or other content within the Service.
• Request support regarding your data (subject to verification).
