2. Your Consent
When you first visit our website, you will be shown a cookie consent banner that allows you to accept, decline, or customize your cookie preferences. By clicking "Accept All Cookies," you are giving us your consent to use all cookies and tracking technologies described in this policy.
If you choose to customize your preferences, you will be able to select which categories of cookies you consent to. You can change your cookie preferences at any time by clicking on the "Cookie Settings" link in the footer of our website.
Please note that essential cookies are necessary for the basic functionality of our website and cannot be disabled. These cookies do not collect any personal information and are active only during your current browsing session.
By continuing to use our website without adjusting your cookie settings, you consent to our use of cookies in accordance with this Cookies Policy. However, you can change your cookie settings at any time.

5. Local Storage
In addition to cookies, we use browser local storage to save your resume data directly on your device. This data remains on your device and is not transmitted to our servers (except temporarily during PDF generation). This allows you to continue working on your resume across browser sessions without needing to create an account.
How We Use Local Storage
We use local storage for the following purposes:
- Storing your resume data (personal information, work experience, education, skills, etc.)
- Storing your profile photo as a base64 encoded string directly in local storage
- Preserving your resume creation progress
Your data stays on your device
Persists between sessions
Private and secure
Local storage differs from cookies in that the data stored in local storage has no expiration date and doesn't get sent to the server with each request. This makes it ideal for storing larger amounts of data that you want to persist even after the browser is closed.
Important: Clearing your browser data will erase your saved resume information from local storage. Always export important resumes as PDFs to prevent data loss.
Managing Local Storage
You can view and manage the data stored in local storage through your browser's developer tools. Most modern browsers allow you to clear local storage through the same interface you use to clear cookies and other site data.
To clear local storage:
- Open your browser's settings or preferences
- Navigate to the privacy or storage section
- Look for options to clear browsing data, cookies, and site data
- Make sure "Local Storage" or "Site Data" is selected
- Clear the data
Please note that clearing local storage will permanently delete any unsaved resume data.
