ResumeGenie is designed with your privacy as the highest priority. We believe that a resume builder should never harvest personal information, force you to create an account, or store your sensitive career data on external servers. All resume editing, PDF generation, and ATS scoring happens locally on your device. This privacy policy transparently explains what data we do NOT collect, how ads work, and how you remain in full control.
π Complete feature transparency
ResumeGenie includes the following professional tools β all accessible instantly without sign-up, subscriptions or hidden data sharing:
Engineered layouts that pass automated tracking systems. No data leaves your device.
Generate high-quality PDF resumes instantly. Files are saved locally or shared via your system picker.
Your progress saves automatically while you type. Data lives only on your deviceβs local storage.
Modify, redesign, and adjust your resume as many times as you want β no restrictions, no cloud sync.
Real-time compatibility scoring based on job description keywords. Analysis runs 100% on-device.
Open the app whenever you need, all your drafts remain private. No expiry, no forced updates.
π No personal data collection β ever
- No account creation: We do not ask for email, name, phone number, or any identifier. You open the app and start building.
- No cloud storage: Your resume content, text, personal details (name, experience, skills) are never transmitted to any server. All editing stays on your deviceβs internal storage.
- No analytics tracking: We do not integrate Google Analytics, Firebase Analytics, or any third-party tracking that could collect usage patterns or device identifiers.
- No crash reporting with personal data: Standard Play Console crash reports may include anonymized stack traces, but never contain any resume content or personal identifiable information.
- No location, contacts, or microphone access: ResumeGenie requests zero runtime permissions. We don't need camera, storage (except for PDF export which uses the system file picker), or contacts.
π± Local data & what remains on your device
Because we never collect data, some information is stored exclusively on your phone/tablet to enable core features like Auto-Save and Unlimited Edits. This includes:
- Resume drafts (text, layout preferences, job titles, skills, work history)
- Selected template style and color variations
- ATS scoring history (if you compare multiple job descriptions β all locally cached)
You can clear this data at any time by uninstalling the app or using the system βClear storageβ option in Android settings. Once removed, no trace remains. ResumeGenie does NOT have remote access to this information.
π’ Advertising in ResumeGenie
ResumeGenie is a free app supported by advertisements. To keep all features completely accessible without paywalls, we display ads using Google AdMob (or similar certified ad partners). Here is how ads work while respecting your privacy:
- No personal data used for ad targeting: We do NOT share your resume content, name, or any entered information with ad networks. AdMob may use anonymous device identifiers (like Advertising ID) to serve generic, contextual ads, but you can reset or limit ad tracking at any time from Android settings.
- No behavioral profiling from resume data: Since no resume data leaves your device, ad partners cannot target you based on your job search or industry.
- Children policy: ResumeGenie is intended for general audiences (job seekers above 16). We comply with Google Playβs ads policies and do not serve personalized ads to users under the age of consent in their region.
- Opt out of interest-based ads: You can opt-out by visiting Android Settings β Google β Ads β Opt out of Ads Personalization. This does not affect app functionality.
β Full feature accessibility β no hidden restrictions
All capabilities listed below are 100% free and unlocked from the first launch. There are no premium tiers, no pay-per-export, no watermark limitations, and no requirement to watch videos to unlock basic features. Every user enjoys:
- Unlimited PDF exports without any daily cap
- Access to all Industry Templates (no locked "pro" section)
- Unlimited edits & revisions across unlimited resumes
- Real-time ATS Score evaluation as many times as you like
- Auto-save and manual edit history always available
π Third-party services & permissions
ResumeGenie integrates only essential services:
- Google AdMob β displays advertisements. Their privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
- Android System File Picker β used exclusively when you export a PDF or choose a custom photo/icon from your device. The app does not automatically read your storage; you explicitly grant temporary access via the system picker.
No other SDKs (analytics, crashlytics with user data, tracking pixels, or cross-promotion networks) are embedded.
π€ Children's privacy & compliance
ResumeGenie does not knowingly collect any personal information from anyone, including children under 13. Since we don't require accounts or collect names/emails, there is no risk of unknowingly storing children's data. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has used the app and somehow provided us data (which is technically impossible due to our architecture), contact us and we will clarify our zero-data design.
π Changes to this Privacy Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time to reflect improvements or legal requirements. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. Since we do not collect user contact info, we encourage you to review this policy occasionally within the app or via the Google Play listing. Material changes (such as introduction of data collection β which we will never do without explicit consent) would be highlighted through the app store update notes.
π§ Developer contact & data requests
Because ResumeGenie collects no user data, there are no databases to query, no profiles to delete, and no personal information to export. If you have any privacy-related questions or concerns, feel free to reach out to the developer:
π© Email: benjamindavid03@gmail.com
For any data removal request regarding local storage: simply uninstall the app or clear app data from Android Settings β Apps β ResumeGenie β Storage β Clear Data. That permanently deletes all drafts and settings from your device.
By using ResumeGenie, you acknowledge that this privacy policy is transparent and reflects a true zero-data-collection model. No resume text, no personal details, no geolocation, and no account credentials are ever transmitted. The app operates fully offline (except for ad loading). Your career journey stays yours.
