Your Privacy Matters

Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 15, 2026

We built LegendCV to help you get hired, not to monetize your data. This policy explains exactly what we collect, why we collect it, and what we never do with it.

The short version

• We collect only what's needed to make the product work

• Your resume data stays private and is never sold to third parties

• AI analysis happens in secure, isolated environments

• You can export or delete your data anytime, no questions asked

• We're GDPR and CCPA compliant

What we collect

Account information

When you create an account, we collect:

  • Email address (for login and important notifications)
  • Name (to personalize your experience)
  • Password (encrypted with industry-standard bcrypt)
  • Account creation date

Resume and career data

To provide AI-powered resume optimization, we process:

  • Resume content (work history, education, skills)
  • Job descriptions you analyze
  • Template preferences
  • ATS optimization settings
  • Interview preparation responses (if you use that feature)

This data is encrypted at rest and only used to provide our services. We never sell, share, or use your resume data to train public AI models.

Usage analytics

To improve the product, we track:

  • Pages you visit within LegendCV
  • Features you use (resume builder, ATS analyzer, etc.)
  • Device type and browser information
  • General location (city/country level, not precise GPS)
  • Performance metrics (page load times, errors)

We use privacy-focused analytics (Plausible/Fathom) that don't track you across the web.

Payment information

We use Stripe to process payments. We never see or store your full credit card details. Stripe provides us with:

  • Last 4 digits of your card
  • Card brand (Visa, Mastercard, etc.)
  • Billing country
  • Subscription status and renewal dates

How we use your data

We use your information to:

Provide our services

Generate resume suggestions, analyze ATS compatibility, create optimized templates, and deliver AI-powered career insights.

Improve our product

Understand which features work, which don't, and where users get stuck. All analysis is done in aggregate—we're looking at patterns, not individual users.

Communicate with you

Send important account updates, respond to support requests, and (if you opt in) share product tips and career advice.

Prevent fraud and abuse

Detect unusual account activity, prevent automated bot attacks, and ensure our AI features aren't being exploited.

AI processing and data security

When you use our AI features:

Your data never trains public models

We use AI APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic) in zero-retention mode. This means:

  • • Your resume content is processed to generate suggestions
  • • The AI provider doesn't store your data
  • • Your information never becomes part of their training data
  • • Each analysis is isolated and forgotten after completion

Security measures

  • • All data encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256)
  • • Resume data stored in isolated, access-controlled databases
  • • Regular security audits and penetration testing
  • • Two-factor authentication available for your account
  • • Automated backup systems with 30-day retention

Who we share data with

We only share your information with:

Service providers

Companies that help us run LegendCV: hosting (Vercel/AWS), payments (Stripe), email (SendGrid), analytics (Plausible). All are contractually required to protect your data.

AI processing partners

OpenAI and Anthropic process resume content in zero-retention mode (as described above). We have data processing agreements ensuring compliance.

Legal requirements

If required by law, court order, or government request, we'll provide the minimum information necessary. We'll notify you unless legally prohibited.

What we never do:

  • ✗ Sell your data to recruiters, job boards, or anyone else
  • ✗ Share your resume with employers without your explicit consent
  • ✗ Use your data for advertising or marketing by third parties
  • ✗ Train public AI models with your career information

  • Resume versions: We keep 30 days of version history so you can restore previous drafts.
  • Support conversations: Retained for 2 years to help with ongoing issues.

Changes to this policy

We'll update this policy as we add features or respond to legal requirements. When we make significant changes:

  • • We'll email you at least 30 days before changes take effect
  • • We'll update the "Last updated" date at the top
  • • We'll explain what changed in plain language
