This page informs you of our policies regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of personal data when you use our Service and the choices you have associated with that data. We use your data to provide and improve the Service. By using the Service, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to track activity on our Service and hold certain information. On your first visit, a cookie consent banner lets you accept or decline non-essential (analytics) cookies before any such cookie is set — see "How We Obtain Consent" below.

What are cookies?

Cookies are files with small amount of data which may include an anonymous unique identifier. They are sent to your browser from a website and stored on your device. Tracking technologies also used are beacons, tags, and scripts to collect and track information and to improve and analyze our Service.

Types of Cookies we use:

  • Essential Cookies: Required for the Service to function properly. These are not gated behind the cookie consent banner.
  • Analytics Cookies: Help us understand how visitors interact with our Service. Only set after you accept the cookie consent banner.
  • Advertising Cookies: Not currently used — we do not serve any advertisements at this time.
  • Functional Cookies: Remember your preferences and settings

How We Obtain Consent

How we obtain consent depends on where you are:

  • European Economic Area, United Kingdom and Switzerland: a consent banner appears on your first visit and Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and PostHog are not loaded at all unless you choose Accept.
  • Everywhere else: analytics run by default, and you can switch them off at any time using the "Cookie Settings" link in the site footer.

Wherever you are, if your browser sends a Global Privacy Control (GPC) or Do Not Track signal we treat it as an opt-out and analytics stay off — you do not need to do anything else. You can change your choice at any time via "Cookie Settings" in the footer, and we remember your choice, whether you accepted or declined, for six months before asking again.

Third-Party Services

We may employ third-party companies and individuals to facilitate our Service, provide the Service on our behalf, perform Service-related services, or assist us in analyzing how our Service is used.

Current Third-Party Partners:

  • Google Analytics: For website analytics and user behavior tracking (loaded only after cookie consent)
  • Google Tag Manager: Used to manage and deploy the analytics tags listed here (loaded only after cookie consent)
  • PostHog: For product analytics and usage insights (loaded only after cookie consent)
  • Supabase: For optional cloud storage and authentication services

Data Retention

We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

Retention Periods:

  • Resume Data: Stored locally in your browser until you clear it
  • Account Data: Retained while your account is active
  • Analytics Data: Retained for 26 months in anonymized form
  • Usage Logs: Automatically deleted after 90 days

  • Right to Access: Request copies of your personal data
  • Right to Rectification: Request correction of inaccurate data
  • Right to Erasure: Request deletion of your personal data
  • Right to Restrict Processing: Limit how we use your data
  • Right to Data Portability: Transfer your data to another service
  • Right to Object: Object to processing of your data

Data Security

The security of your data is important to us. We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure.

International Data Transfers

Your personal information may be transferred to, and maintained on, computers located outside of your state, province, country or other governmental jurisdiction where the data protection laws may differ from those of your jurisdiction.

Children's Privacy

Our Service does not address anyone under the age of 13 ("Children"). We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 13. If you are a parent or guardian and you are aware that your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes. Changes to this Privacy Policy are effective when they are posted on this page.
