Privacy Policy

At resume-helper.com, we value your privacy. Our mission is to provide a free, helpful, and transparent resume tool that puts you in full control of your data.

What We Collect

By default, we do not collect or store any personal data, resumes, or usage analytics. You can use the editor entirely offline or download your resume as JSON or PDF without creating an account.
When you send a request to generate a PDF, the data is not saved or copied, the pdf is generated on the go and none of your data stays with us.

If you choose to create an account, you can optionally save your data on our servers. This data may include your name, contact information, work experience, education, and resume structure.

Your Data, Your Choice

If you manually opt to save resume data to your account, you can choose between two options:

  • Encrypted Storage — You encrypt your resume in your browser using a private key (passphrase) before saving it. We never receive or store this key. Your resume can only be decrypted on your device with the correct key. This also means that if you lose your key, we have no way of helping you retrieve your data.
  • Simple Storage — If you prefer the convenience of not needing to remember another password, you may store your data without protecting it on your end with a key. The data is still stored in a secured database, though this means we can technically view your data, but we will never sell, or share it. It's still your data and we do not assume ownership for it, so we will not do anything other than provide it back to you, when you need it.

We encourage encrypted storage for maximum privacy.

How We Use Your Data

Your data is only used to:

  • Prefill your resume when you return to the site
  • Allow you to make changes or download updated versions

We do not use your data for analytics, advertising, or third-party sharing.

Retention Policy

Your data will be retained only as long as your account exists. You may delete your saved resumes or your account at any time. Encrypted resumes are stored as unreadable ciphertext, even to us.

Your Rights

Under applicable data protection laws (including GDPR), you have the right to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you
  • Correct inaccurate or outdated information
  • Delete your saved data or account
  • Withdraw consent at any time

If you would like to exercise any of these rights, please email us using the contact information below.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as our services evolve. We’ll always post updates here, and we will never make changes that reduce your rights or compromise your privacy without clear notice.

We will never sell your data. Period.
