The short version: your resume never leaves your browser. Everything you type into our builder is saved only on your own device. We do not upload it, store it on our servers, read it, or sell it — we could not, even if asked. We have no accounts and no login, so we do not hold a database of users.
This policy explains that in full, along with the limited technical data we and our partners do collect, and your rights over it.
This policy applies to TheGreatCV.com ("the Site", "we", "us"). By using the Site you agree to the practices described here.
The resume builder runs entirely inside your web browser. When you type your name, work history, education or any other detail:
What this means for you: we cannot recover your resume if you lose it. Clearing your browser data, using private/incognito mode, or switching devices will remove it. Use the Backup button to save a copy of your data as a file you control.
While your resume content stays private, some standard technical information is collected when anyone visits a website, including this one:
| Type | What it includes | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Server log data | IP address, browser type, device type, referring page, date and time of visit | Standard hosting operation, security and abuse prevention |
| Analytics data | Pages visited, approximate location (country/city level), session duration, aggregated usage patterns | To understand which guides and tools are useful and improve them |
| Advertising data | Cookies and identifiers set by advertising partners | To display ads, which keep the Site free |
| Local storage | Your resume content and preferences | Functional only — stays on your device, never sent to us |
We do not ask for, and do not knowingly collect, your name, email address, phone number, or any other directly identifying personal information, because the Site has no registration, login, or contact form. If you email us voluntarily, we will hold your message only to reply to it.
Cookies are small files stored by your browser. This Site may involve:
You can control or delete cookies at any time through your browser settings. Blocking advertising cookies will not stop you from using any tool on this Site — every feature remains fully free and functional.
This Site is free to use and is supported by advertising. We may work with third-party advertising networks, including Google AdSense.
Advertisers do not receive your resume content, and no advertiser pays us to influence the guidance in our tools or articles.
Our guides may link to external websites such as job portals, official government pages, or learning resources. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content or privacy practices. We encourage you to read the privacy policy of any site you visit.
Because we do not hold your personal data, most data requests are things you can action yourself, instantly:
You have rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, and objection regarding personal data. As explained above, we do not hold identifiable personal data about visitors. Where advertising or analytics partners process data as independent controllers, you may exercise your rights with them directly, or contact us and we will assist. Where required, consent for non-essential cookies is requested before they are set.
We do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined under California law. You have the right to know what is collected and to request deletion; as above, we hold no user database from which to delete.
We process the limited technical data described above in accordance with applicable Indian data protection law. You may contact us with any query regarding your data.
This Site is intended for users aged 16 and above and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.
The Site is served over HTTPS. Because your resume data never reaches our servers, the most common risk in online resume tools — a server-side data breach exposing user resumes — does not apply here. You remain responsible for the security of your own device and of any backup files you download.
We may update this policy from time to time. The "last updated" date above always reflects the current version. Material changes will be reflected on this page; continued use of the Site after an update constitutes acceptance.
