Privacy Policy

Your data, explained.

Last updated: March 23, 2026

This policy explains exactly what FitMyCV collects, why we collect it, who we share it with, and what you can do about it. Written to be specific - not to cover ourselves with vague language, but to give you a clear picture of how the product actually works.

What we collect

Account data

When you sign up - via Google or email/password - we store your name, email address, Firebase UID, and profile photo URL.

Extended profile (optional)

If you fill out your profile in Settings, we store what you provide: phone number, address, GitHub URL, Instagram URL, and LinkedIn URL. None of this is required to use the product.

Resume & cover letter content

We store the full text and structured JSON of every resume and cover letter you create - including target job descriptions, ATS match scores, version history, and optimization logs.

AI output

We store the results of AI operations: tailored resume bullets, ATS scores (0–100), category breakdowns (keywords, grammar, format, skills, experience, education), and optimization job logs.

Credit & billing data

We store your credit balance, full credit transaction history, plan purchase history, Razorpay payment ID and order ID, amount, currency, and timestamp. We do not store card numbers or CVVs.

Usage data

We track last active timestamp, resume count, tailor run count, analysis run count, and average match score to understand how the product is being used.

Anonymous ATS analyses

If you run an ATS analysis without logging in, we store the resume text and scores with no user ID attached. These records are purged after 90 days.

How we use your data

We use your data to do exactly what you asked us to do:

  • Authenticate your account and keep your session secure
  • Store and display your resumes, cover letters, and ATS scores
  • Send your resume and job description to AI APIs to generate tailored content
  • Track your credit balance and deduct credits when you use paid features
  • Process payments and issue receipts via Razorpay
  • Apply referral rewards when you or someone you referred completes a qualifying action
  • Send transactional emails - account verification, password reset, payment confirmation
  • Analyze aggregate usage patterns to improve the product (we look at trends, not individual users)

We do not use your data for advertising. We do not build profiles to sell. We do not share your resume content with recruiters or employers.

AI data processing

Read this section carefully

FitMyCV uses third-party AI APIs (OpenAI and/or Anthropic) to power its core features. When you use any AI feature, your content is sent to these external services. Here is exactly what gets sent and when:

AI Resume Tailoring:Your full resume text + the target job description
ATS Analysis:Your full resume text
AI Cover Letter:Your resume text + the target job description
AI Bullet Rewriter (editor):The selected resume field text only

We do not use your resume data to train AI models. Your content is sent to the AI API solely to generate the output you requested. We have no control over the internal processing of OpenAI or Anthropic - they have their own privacy policies.

Data sent to AI APIs is transient from our side - we do not store the raw API request beyond what appears in your saved documents. The AI provider may retain inputs per their own data retention policies.

If you are not comfortable with your resume text being sent to a third-party AI API, do not use the AI features. The template editor and PDF export work without AI and do not send data externally.

Payments & billing data

All payment processing is handled by Razorpay. We never see or store your card number, CVV, or bank credentials - those go directly to Razorpay's secure servers.

What we store on our end:

  • Razorpay payment ID and order ID
  • Credit pack purchased and number of credits
  • Amount paid and currency (INR or USD)
  • Payment timestamp
  • Your credit balance and full transaction history

Indian users pay in INR via Razorpay's domestic gateway. International users pay in USD via Razorpay's international card processing. Geo-detection determines which gateway is used at checkout.

All purchases are final. Credits are non-refundable. We encourage you to use the 30 free credits before buying a pack.

Referral system data

FitMyCV has a referral program. Here's what we store and why:

  • Your referral code: A random string tied to your account. Not personally identifiable on its own.
  • Who referred you: The referral code used at your signup, so we can credit the right person.
  • Referral count: How many people signed up using your link.
  • Reward history: Whether rewards were issued and when, so we don't double-credit.

Referral codes are random strings - they don't contain your name or email. We don't share referral data with third parties.

Data sharing & third parties

We do not sell your data. We do not share it with advertisers. Here is the complete list of third parties that touch your data:

Request information

Email us at fitmycv.team@fitmycv.site to ask what data we hold about you or how it's being used.

Cookies & tracking

We keep this simple because we don't do much here.

Essential session cookies

Firebase Authentication uses a session cookie to keep you logged in. Without it, the app doesn't work. You can clear it by logging out or clearing browser storage.

No advertising cookies

We do not use Google Ads, Meta Pixel, or any third-party advertising trackers. There are no retargeting cookies on this site.

No cross-site tracking

We don't track you across other websites. What happens on fitmycv.site stays on fitmycv.site.

We may use localStorage to cache things like your country/currency preference and template selections. This data stays in your browser and is not sent to our servers.

Children's privacy

FitMyCV is a career tool for adults. The service is not intended for anyone under 16 years of age.

We do not knowingly collect personal data from minors. If you believe a child under 16 has created an account, contact us at fitmycv.team@fitmycv.site and we will delete the account and all associated data promptly.

Changes to this policy

If we make material changes to this policy - changes that affect how we collect, use, or share your data - we'll notify you by email and update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.

Minor changes (fixing typos, clarifying language without changing substance) will be updated silently. The current version is always at fitmycv.site/privacy.

Continuing to use FitMyCV after a policy update means you accept the updated terms. If you don't agree, you can delete your account from Settings.

Questions about this policy, data requests, or anything else privacy-related - reach us directly:

We aim to respond within 2 business days. For account deletion requests, include the email address associated with your account.
