Privacy

In short: you build your resume freely and it stays in your browser. The PDF downloads without an account. A free account (email, no password) is optional and keeps your resume online. Your Resume is only sent to our servers if you save it to your account. The AI option and advertising are described below.

What your resume contains

The information you enter (identity, contact details, photo, background) is only used to display and print your Resume. It only leaves your device if you save the resume to your account, or for the AI option.

The AI option

If you use "Fill in with AI", "Improve with AI", "Tailor my resume" or the cover letter, the text or file (PDF, photo) you provide (and, for tailoring, the job ad and the texts of your resume) is sent to our service, which passes it to an Anthropic AI model to produce the result. We do not store it and it is not linked to any account. Your IP address is only used to limit the number of uses per day and is kept in memory for the day. Processing by Anthropic is subject to its own privacy policy. Do not send documents that are not your resume (for example, identity documents).

Usage statistics

We count page views and a few actions (PDF download, template chosen, AI use) anonymously. No cookie is set, no identifier is created, neither your IP address nor the content of your resume is recorded in these statistics, and nothing lets us recognise you from one visit to the next. Only the page name, the action, the referring site and the type of device (mobile or computer) are kept. If your browser sends a "Do Not Track" signal, we count nothing.

The account

A free account is optional: it keeps your resumes online. We store your email address and the resumes and letters you choose to save, in a database hosted by Supabase (European Union region, Paris). You sign in with a link sent by email, through the Resend email service. Your saved resumes are only visible to you. You can delete each resume, or your whole account with all your resumes, at any time from "My account": deletion is immediate and permanent. We keep your data for as long as your account exists.

What is stored on your device

So that you can come back to your draft, a copy is kept in your browser's local storage (localStorage), along with your session if you are signed in, and your choice about advertising cookies. You can clear the draft with the "Start from scratch" button, or by clearing the site's data in your browser. If you use a shared computer, remember to do so.

Advertising and cookies

CVLibre is free thanks to advertising, shown by Google AdSense, and to the optional CVLibre Pass. Payment for the Pass is handled entirely by Gumroad: CVLibre never receives your bank details, only the purchase confirmation, the email address used and your account ID to activate the Pass. On your first visit, a banner asks whether you accept advertising cookies. No ads are requested before you choose. If you accept, Google may use cookies to show and measure personalised ads. If you decline, Google only shows non-personalised ads. Your choice is kept for 6 months in your browser and you can change it at any time with the "Cookies" link at the bottom of each page. Ads never appear in your PDFs and never have access to the content of your Resume. Processing by Google is subject to its own privacy policy.

Notifications: CVLibre may offer to send you notifications (offers and advertising), through Adrenalead's Notifpush service. The request only appears after you download a resume or a letter, or after a few pages, and nothing is sent without the permission you give in your browser. If you accept, a subscription ID is stored by Adrenalead to send you these notifications. You can stop them at any time in your browser settings (site permissions for cvlibre.com). Processing by Adrenalead is subject to its own privacy policy.

Job alerts: if you create an alert from the jobs page (or the Jobs CVLibre app), CVLibre stores your search (job, place, contract), the notification subscription address given by your browser and your IP address, used only to query the job search engine. Every morning, the CVLibre server looks for new jobs and sends you a notification. These notifications come from CVLibre and contain no advertising. Deleting the alert ("Delete" button) or blocking notifications in your browser erases this data.

Our usage statistics use no cookies. Fonts are hosted on the site. The other services (AI, Supabase, Resend) are only called if you use the matching feature.

Your rights

Under the GDPR, you can access, correct or delete your data at any time: directly from "My account" for your resumes and your account, or by writing to contact@cvlibre.com. You can also complain to the French data protection authority, the CNIL (cnil.fr).
