Cookies and Similar Technologies
WordCV may use cookies and similar technologies to support website functionality, understand website usage, remember preferences and measure advertising performance.
A cookie is a small piece of data that a website may store on your device. Some cookies may be necessary for website functionality, while others may be used for analytics or advertising purposes.
Depending on your location and the technologies used on WordCV, you may be given options to accept, reject or manage certain categories of cookies.
Analytics
WordCV may use analytics services to understand how visitors interact with the website. Analytics data can help us understand information such as which pages are visited, how visitors arrive at the site and how the website performs across different devices.
Analytics providers may use cookies or similar technologies in accordance with their own privacy policies and applicable data protection requirements.
Advertising
WordCV may display advertising provided by third-party advertising partners. These providers may use cookies or similar technologies to deliver, limit, measure or personalise advertisements, depending on your location and consent choices.
Third-party advertising providers may process information in accordance with their own privacy policies. Where required, WordCV will provide appropriate consent controls before non-essential advertising technologies are used.
CV Template Downloads
WordCV provides downloadable CV templates and related files. We may record general download activity, such as which file was downloaded or how often a resource is accessed, to help us improve our content.
Unless a particular feature clearly states otherwise, downloading a template does not require you to submit the personal information that you later add to the document on your own device.
Information You Add to Downloaded CV Files
When you download a Word CV template and edit it on your own device, the personal information you enter into that document is not automatically sent to WordCV merely because you are editing the file.
You are responsible for protecting copies of your CV stored on your computer, mobile device, cloud storage account or any other service you choose to use.
Third-Party Services and Links
WordCV may contain links to external websites or use third-party services for functions such as analytics, advertising, website hosting, security or other technical services.
We are not responsible for the privacy practices of external websites. If you follow a link to another website, you should review that website’s privacy policy separately.
Data Retention
We aim to retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, to comply with applicable obligations or to protect the security and operation of the website.
Different types of information may be retained for different periods depending on their purpose and the systems or third-party services involved.
Your Privacy Choices
Depending on your location, you may have rights regarding personal information processed about you. These rights can vary according to applicable law and may include the ability to request access, correction, deletion or restriction of certain personal information.
You may also be able to manage certain cookies through website consent controls or your browser settings.
Children’s Privacy
WordCV is intended to provide general CV and job application resources. We do not knowingly seek to collect unnecessary personal information from children.
