Cookie Policy

Last updated: March 30, 2026

1. What We Use

MyPDFCV does not use cookies. Instead, we use your browser's localStorage to store:

  • Your resume data (content, section order, template choice)
  • Your theme preference (light or dark mode)
  • PostHog anonymous session data (random anonymous ID, event queue)

Your resume data never leaves your browser. Anonymous analytics data is sent to PostHog's servers (see section 2).

2. Analytics

We use PostHog to collect anonymous usage analytics such as feature usage, page visits, and general interaction patterns. No personally identifiable information (names, emails, resume content) is collected. All profiles are anonymous, your IP address is not stored, and we respect the Do Not Track (DNT) browser setting — if enabled, no analytics data is collected. You can also clear PostHog's localStorage data by clearing your browser's site data.

3. Third-Party Services & Downloads

The following third-party resources may be downloaded and cached by your browser during normal use of MyPDFCV:

  • AI models: The text improvement feature downloads an open-source AI model (Xenova/flan-t5-small) from Hugging Face's CDN on first use. This is cached by your browser using standard HTTP caching, not cookies.
  • PDF processing: The document import feature uses PDF.js (by Mozilla) which may load a worker script. This is also cached by standard browser caching.
  • LinkedIn OAuth: If you choose to sign in with LinkedIn, LinkedIn's own cookie and privacy policies apply to the authentication flow. We do not control LinkedIn's use of cookies. Please refer to LinkedIn's Cookie Policy for more information.
  • PostHog Analytics: Anonymous usage events are sent to PostHog (posthog.com) servers in the United States. PostHog's privacy policy applies to the processing of this data. No resume content or personal information is included.

These downloads and services are subject to the respective providers' privacy policies. No personal data from your resumes is sent to these providers.

4. Clearing Data

You can remove all stored data at any time by clearing your browser's localStorage. This will permanently delete all resume data and preferences. In most browsers, this can be done via Settings > Privacy > Clear browsing data > Cookies and site data.
