Privacy Policy
9. Overview
Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and — critically — what we do not do with it. Polishd is designed with a privacy-first approach: we do not store, retain, or sell your CV data.
10. Information We Collect
10a. Information You Provide
When you use the Service, you submit CV text. This content is processed in real time to generate your optimized output. We do not store this content after your session is complete.
10b. Technical Data
We may automatically collect basic technical information such as your IP address, browser type, device type, and usage timestamps. This data is used solely for security monitoring, abuse prevention, and improving the Service.
11. What We Do NOT Do
We are explicit about this:
- We do not store your CV content after processing
- We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with advertisers or third parties for marketing purposes
- We do not use your CV content to train AI models
- We do not build profiles on individual users
- We do not collect any payment or financial information
12. How We Use Your Information
The limited data we collect is used exclusively to:
- Process and deliver your CV optimization
- Provide customer support if you contact us
- Detect and prevent fraud or abuse
- Comply with legal obligations
13. Data Retention
CV content is deleted immediately after your optimized result is delivered. We do not retain copies. Technical logs may be retained for up to 90 days for security purposes, after which they are deleted.
14. Third-Party Services
We use third-party services to operate the platform, including AI infrastructure providers. These services operate under their own privacy policies. We select providers who comply with applicable data protection standards and do not permit them to use your data for their own purposes.
15. Security
We implement industry-standard security measures to protect data in transit and at rest, including TLS encryption. However, no system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. We encourage you not to include sensitive personal information (such as Social Security numbers, national ID numbers, or banking details) in your CV submission.
16. Children's Privacy
The Service is not directed at individuals under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has submitted data to us, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.
17. Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights regarding your personal data, including the right to access, correct, or delete information we hold about you. Since we do not retain CV content, there is typically nothing to delete. For any requests regarding your data, contact us at the email below.
18. Changes to These Policies
We may update these Terms and Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on our website with an updated effective date. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policies.
