Privacy and data use

Privacy Policy

Last updated: 6 November 2026

This policy explains what stays in your browser, what is sent when you request an online service, and how analytics and advertising choices are handled.

1. About this policy

This policy covers information handled when you visit Resume Earth, use its tools, or contact us. The site is operated at www.resumeearth.com. For privacy questions or requests, email support@resumeearth.com.

2. Information in your browser

The resume builder saves your draft, selected template and related editor state in this browser's local storage. Job-description drafts may use session storage. The cover-letter composer normally keeps its working draft in page memory. When a privacy-triggered reload is needed to terminate Clarity, a one-use, tab-scoped handoff can preserve drafts and completed tool results. It is removed on the next application boot; handoffs older than 90 seconds are not restored. Browser-history state is used only if session storage cannot be written. This information can include the personal details you choose to enter, such as your name, contact details, employment history, education, skills and photo.

This browser storage is not a server-side account or database. It may be unavailable on another device or browser. Clearing this site's browser data removes locally saved drafts, so download or back up a resume before clearing it. The storage inventory is in the Cookie Policy.

3. Online tools and AI processing

Some optional features send the information needed for the result you requested to Resume Earth's server and, when configured, an AI provider. This can include resume text, job descriptions, a summary, work notes, a project name or skills, depending on which feature you use. The legacy writing helpers send only the fields needed for the selected helper, not provider credentials. Provider keys are held on the server and are not included in the browser bundle or browser request.

Configured providers can include Groq, OpenRouter, Google Gemini or Hugging Face. The selected provider processes the request under its own terms and privacy practices. We do not control the provider's retention or handling. Do not send information that you are not comfortable submitting to that service. AI suggestions can be inaccurate; review them and remove any statement that does not match your experience before using it.

Files and PDF export

The ATS scanner extracts and checks PDF, DOCX and TXT content in your browser. Local export tools also render documents in the browser. If a deployment has a separate PDF renderer configured, the PDF feature sends the document in a POST request to that service. The PDF request contract is not a URL carrying the resume; the print page receives its payload through the configured injection or message integration. The print route does not accept resume data from a query parameter.

4. Contact messages

When the contact form is enabled and you submit it, the name, email address, subject and message you enter are sent through EmailJS for delivery. If the form is unavailable, the contact page provides the verified support address, support@resumeearth.com. Avoid including sensitive information in a support request unless it is needed to handle your request.

5. Analytics and measurement

Analytics measurement is off until you choose Acceptin the site's analytics notice or Privacy Settings. This separate analytics choice controls Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity and, on supported Vercel deployments, Vercel Analytics and Speed Insights. Choosing Rejectkeeps optional measurement off, records your rejection and removes measurement cookies the site can clear. Reopen the shared at any time from the navbar, footer or this page to accept, reject or withdraw, or turn measurement off and reopen the notice. Failed or unverified storage writes are reported; the current page's choice may not persist to other tabs or later visits, which may use an older choice. Analytics choice is not advertising consent and does not control whether the shared AdSense tag is requested.

After acceptance, Google Analytics measures site usage; Microsoft Clarity records sessions, including clicks and browsing interactions; and Vercel Analytics / Speed Insights collect usage and performance telemetry where enabled. These providers may receive technical visit information such as pages viewed, browser or device details and network information, under their own privacy terms. Google Analytics may use cookies such as _ga; Microsoft Clarity may use cookies such as _clck and _clsk. The Cookie Policy describes the site's current storage entries and links to the providers' documentation. Blockers, browser settings or network failures can still prevent measurement.

Microsoft Clarity and resume content

Resume and cover-letter preview regions are marked with Clarity's documented masking attribute, and form fields are masked by Clarity's default behavior. The print route is excluded from Clarity recording because it renders user-provided document content. These safeguards are separate from the analytics choice; rejecting before acceptance prevents Clarity from being loaded. Masking is not a guarantee that recordings contain no personal data. Withdrawing after Clarity starts replaces the document to terminate its recorder and attempts to restore drafts and tool results. Already sent or in-flight requests cannot be recalled; this is not a promise to stop every request from a provider.

6. Advertising and ad privacy choices

Advertising consent is separate from analytics consent. The analytics notice does not authorize ads, and accepting analytics does not change Google's advertising consent signals.

The Google AdSense tag is a direct async script in the shared document head. The browser requests it on every page load, including the home page, blog index, tools, resume builder, template pages, contact, legal pages and print route. It is not delayed until the visitor makes an ad choice. Google Consent Mode defaults are set to denied before this tag runs. On the canonical production site, Google Funding Choices has a separate bootstrap eligible on every route ofwww.resumeearth.com, including builder and print documents, to retrieve or manage advertising choices and update those consent signals. Google decides whether to display a message based on the account's published configuration, region and saved choices. Bootstrap eligibility does not guarantee a popup. Its response does not prevent, defer or remove the AdSense script. The initial script request can send ordinary page, browser and connection metadata to Google.

The AdSense script also runs on resume-entry and print pages where a document may be visible. The site does not deliberately send résumé text as an AdSense request field, and print résumés are not carried in the URL. Because third-party JavaScript runs in the page, however, this policy cannot guarantee the provider is technically unable to access content rendered there. Google's ad technology may use browser data, consent signals, cookies or similar storage under its own terms; exact names and retention periods vary. Whether Google displays ads on a page depends on publisher-account settings and is not confirmed by this repository. See how Google uses data on partner sites and Google's Ads Settings.

To revisit Google's ad choices, open on the current page; no article navigation is required. Its EU / UK / Swiss control requests Google's consent or revocation message. The request is not confirmation that a message appeared or a choice changed. If the choice message does not appear, the account's published message or browser settings may affect its availability. An unavailable or denied status keeps the Consent Mode signals at their denied defaults where no grant is available, but it does not stop the AdSense script request.

US state opt-outs use Google's published Do Not Sell or Share control where applicable, with GPP signals. Google's EU revocation API is not a universal US opt-out. Its custom US confirmation API requires an overridden Google link, supported in Ad Manager; this site does not enable that override or replace Google's US link. The settings panel links to Google's regional API documentation without inventing a CMP record or certifying an advertising preference.

7. How information is shared

Resume Earth does not sell personal information or rent out resume data. Information is shared only as needed for the feature or service you choose, site operation, measurement and advertising services described above, or a legal obligation. The AdSense page-load request occurs even before an ad choice is available, as explained in section 6.

  • AI providers, EmailJS or a configured PDF renderer process the fields or document you submit for that feature.
  • Google's shared AdSense tag is requested on every document, including resume-entry and print routes. The separate Funding Choices bootstrap is eligible on every canonical production route, but Google decides message display from account configuration, region and saved choice. The site does not deliberately send résumé text as an AdSense field, but third-party scripts run on pages where document content may be visible.
  • Hosting and delivery providers serve the site and its API. Their own logs and retention are governed by their terms.
  • Information may be disclosed to a regulator, court or law-enforcement body when legally required.

8. Logs and retention

The application does not intentionally log AI request bodies, resume text, AI prompts, provider response bodies or query-string values. API responses containing user-submitted information are sent with no-store headers. Public AI endpoints use a best-effort in-memory rate limit keyed by the forwarded client IP; the keys are not written to an application database and expired entries are periodically removed from the running process. Hosting providers may separately process request metadata under their own policies.

Resume drafts remain in browser storage until you remove them. Data sent to an AI provider, EmailJS, hosting provider or PDF renderer is subject to that service's processing and retention practices. Resume Earth does not maintain an account database or a persistent server copy of a resume created by ordinary browsing.

9. Security and data minimization

Requests to the site's AI endpoints are size-limited, validated and rate-limited. The server does not return provider error bodies to the browser, and application error logging excludes request bodies and query values. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure. Remove unnecessary sensitive information before using an online feature, and upload another person's document only with their permission.

10. Your choices and rights

  • Delete a browser draft: clear this site's browser storage after downloading or backing up the file.
  • Limit online processing: AI, job-match, contact and remote PDF features are optional; use local editing and export where available.
  • Change analytics consent: use Privacy Settings in the navbar, footer or on this page. This changes analytics measurement only, not advertising preferences.
  • Change ad choices: open for the separate Google EU / UK / Swiss control and information about Google's applicable US Do Not Sell or Share control.
  • Privacy request: email support@resumeearth.com with a description of the information and request. Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete or restrict processing, and to complain to a data protection authority.

11. Children's privacy

Resume Earth is a general-audience service and is not designed for children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through an account system; the site has no accounts. If you believe a child has sent information through a contact form or online tool, email support@resumeearth.com with enough detail to identify the submission.

12. Third-party services and links

AI providers, Google, Microsoft, Vercel, EmailJS, hosting providers and any configured PDF renderer have their own terms and privacy notices. Links from Resume Earth to job boards, employers or other websites lead to services we do not control; their practices are outside this policy.

13. Changes to this policy

This page will be updated when our information practices materially change, and the date above will be revised. The current version is the one published here.
