Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 26, 2026
ResumeAI processes personal data — including your resume — to tailor documents to job descriptions. This policy explains what we collect, why, who we share it with, and the rights you have over it.
1. Data we collect
- Account data: your email address, display name, and either a securely hashed password or, for Google sign-in, your Google account ID. We never store your Google password.
- Resume & profile content: the resume files and profile text you upload, parsed into a structured profile of your roles, projects, and skills.
- Job inputs: the job descriptions, position titles, company names, and application questions you paste in to generate documents.
- Generated documents: the resumes, cover letters, and answers the Service produces for you, kept in your history until you delete them.
- Usage records: a count of generations per day (to enforce plan quotas) and minimal server request logs — method, path, status, timestamp, and account ID. Logs never contain your resume text, job descriptions, or generated content.
- Billing data (Pro only): if you subscribe, our payment processor (Stripe) collects your payment details. We store only your Stripe customer and subscription identifiers and subscription status — never your full card number.
2. How we use your data
We use your data solely to operate the Service: to authenticate you, parse your resume, generate tailored documents, score them against job descriptions, enforce plan limits, and provide your history. We do not sell your data or use it for advertising.
3. Third-party AI processing
To generate documents, your resume/profile text and the job description you provide are transmitted to a trusted third-party large-language-model (LLM) provider (currently DeepSeek or Anthropic). These providers process the text to return tailored output. We send only what is needed for the task and do not include your account password or payment details. Please review the applicable provider's terms; we are not responsible for their independent practices, but we choose providers that do not require training on your submissions for API use.
4. Cookies and tracking
ResumeAI uses no advertising or analytics cookies. Your login session is held as a bearer token in your browser's local storage, not in a tracking cookie. The only cookie we set is a short-lived, HttpOnly oauth_state cookie used strictly to protect the Google sign-in flow against CSRF; it expires within minutes.
5. Data retention
Your account and content are retained for as long as your account is active. Resumes, profiles, and cover letters you delete are removed from our database, and their stored PDF files are deleted from disk. When you delete your account, your associated data is removed. Minimal request logs are rotated automatically and retained only briefly for operational and security purposes.
6. Your rights
- Access & export: you can view and download every resume, cover letter, and profile you've created from within the app.
- Correction: you can edit your profile, display name, and generated documents at any time.
- Deletion: you can delete individual resumes and profiles directly in the app. To delete your entire account and all associated data, contact us at the address below and we will action it.
Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under laws such as the GDPR or CCPA (including the right to object to or restrict processing). Contact us to exercise them.
7. Security
Passwords are hashed with bcrypt and never stored in plaintext. Traffic is served over HTTPS. Access to stored PDFs is gated by short-lived, cryptographically signed links, and server logs are kept access-restricted. No system is perfectly secure, but we take reasonable measures to protect your data.
8. Children
The Service is not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect their data.
9. Changes
We may update this policy as the Service evolves. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date above.
