At ResumeHowl, we take your privacy seriously. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and what choices you have. We wrote this in plain language because legal pages should not require a law degree to understand.
When you sign up, we collect your name and email address. This is the basics we need to create and manage your account.
When you use our service, you provide resume content (either by uploading a file or pasting text). This includes things like your work history, education, skills, and contact details. We store this content so we can generate your portfolio site and let you come back to edit it later.
If you upgrade to Pro ($29/year), your payment is processed by Stripe. We never see or store your full credit card number. Stripe handles all payment data under their own privacy policy. We only receive a confirmation of payment, your subscription status, and a truncated card identifier (like the last four digits).
We collect basic usage information like how many sites you have generated, when you last logged in, and what features you use. This helps us understand how the service is being used and where we can improve.
We use the information we collect to:
We do not sell your personal information. We do not use your resume content for advertising. Your data is yours.
We rely on a few trusted third-party services to run ResumeHowl. Here is who they are and what they do:
When you generate a portfolio site, your resume content is sent to Anthropic's Claude API to power the AI generation. Anthropic processes this data according to their privacy policy. Per Anthropic's API terms, your data sent through the API is not used to train their models.
Stripe handles all payment processing for Pro subscriptions. When you enter your payment details, that information goes directly to Stripe. We never handle or store your full card number. You can review Stripe's privacy policy for details on how they manage payment data.
We use Supabase for our database, user authentication, and file storage. Your account data and resume content are stored on Supabase's infrastructure. You can review Supabase's privacy policy for more information.
We take reasonable measures to protect your data. Your account is secured with authentication managed by Supabase. Data is transmitted over encrypted connections (HTTPS). We follow standard security practices for a web application of this nature.
That said, no system is perfectly secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security, but we do our best to keep your information safe and we will notify you promptly if a breach affects your data.
We use a small number of cookies to keep the service running smoothly. These are functional cookies, not tracking cookies. We do not use cookies for advertising or third-party analytics.
For the full details on what cookies we set and why, see our Cookie Policy.
You have the right to:
If you need help exercising any of these rights, email us at hello@resumehowl.com and we will sort it out.
We keep your data for as long as you have an active account. If you delete your account, we remove your personal data, resume content, and generated sites promptly. Some records (like billing history) may be retained as required by law or for legitimate business purposes such as fraud prevention, but these will not include your resume content.
If your account is inactive for an extended period, we may reach out to confirm you still want to keep it before taking any action.
ResumeHowl is not designed for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 13. If we learn that we have collected data from a child under 13, we will delete it promptly. If you believe a child has provided us with their information, please contact us at hello@resumehowl.com.
ResumeHowl and our third-party providers operate infrastructure in various countries. By using the service, you acknowledge that your data may be transferred to and processed in countries outside your own. We rely on our providers' compliance with applicable data protection regulations to safeguard your information during these transfers.
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. If we make significant changes, we will let you know by email or through a notice in the app. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page always reflects the most recent version.
Continued use of ResumeHowl after changes are posted means you accept the updated policy.
