Cookie Policy

We use only essential cookies needed to run the service. No advertising cookies. No tracking. No surveillance.

01The short version

  • We use only essential cookies — the ones needed for the service to function.
  • No advertising cookies, no marketing pixels, no third-party tracking.
  • We don't use Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or similar surveillance tools.
  • Some essential cookies are set by trusted providers (Clerk for auth, Stripe for payments).

02What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember you, your preferences, and your sign-in status.

"Local storage" is similar — it's a way for websites to store small amounts of data in your browser. We use it for theme preferences and cookie consent.

04Third-party cookies

Some essential cookies come from our service providers:

We do NOT use:

  • Google Analytics
  • Facebook Pixel or Meta tracking
  • TikTok pixel

  • Cross-site tracking cookies
  • Fingerprinting techniques

05Controlling cookies

Most browsers allow you to:

  • Block all cookies
  • Delete existing cookies
  • Allow only first-party cookies
  • Get notified before cookies are set

Important: blocking essential cookies (like Clerk's auth cookies) will break ResumeAI — you won't be able to sign in or use the service.

For browser-specific instructions:

06Do Not Track

"Do Not Track" (DNT) is a browser signal indicating you don't want to be tracked. We don't currently respond to DNT signals because we don't track you to begin with — DNT was designed to prevent ad tracking, and we have none.

Global Privacy Control (GPC) is the modern equivalent — same logic applies.

07Changes to this policy

If we add or change cookies, we'll update this page and the "Last updated" date. Material changes will trigger a refreshed consent banner.
