Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

CV Meistras is committed to protecting your privacy and handling your personal data responsibly. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information in accordance with GDPR and data protection principles.

2. Data We Collect

We collect only the minimum data necessary to provide our service:

• Account information (email, name) for authentication
• Resume content you create (stored only while you use the service)
• Payment status (premium/free): we do not store payment card details
• Session data for keeping you logged in

3. How We Use Your Data

Your data is used solely to:

• Provide the resume building service
• Maintain your account and preferences
• Process payments securely through Stripe
• Generate PDFs of your resumes on-demand

4. Data Minimization

We follow the principle of data minimization. We do not store:

• Generated PDF files: these are created in memory and sent directly to you
• Payment card details: all payments are processed by Stripe
• Unnecessary personal information beyond what you provide

5. Data Retention

Personal data is retained only as long as necessary to provide our services:

• Active accounts: Data is kept while you use the service
• Inactive accounts: Accounts inactive for 12 consecutive months may be deleted
• Deleted accounts: All data is permanently removed upon account deletion

This approach aligns with GDPR storage limitation principles and helps maintain system performance.

6. Inactive Account Removal

To comply with data minimization requirements and maintain platform efficiency, accounts that remain inactive for 12 consecutive months may be automatically removed. Inactivity is defined as no login or account activity during this period.

You can prevent automatic removal by logging in at least once every 12 months. We recommend exporting important data before extended periods of inactivity.
