Your Content

When you use FreeCV.org, you create content (your CV information, uploaded photos, etc.). Here's what you should know:

  • You're responsible for your content. Ensure the information you include is accurate and truthful.
  • Don't include sensitive data. Avoid putting highly sensitive information (like government ID numbers) in your CV.

Important: Because your data is stored locally in your browser, clearing your browser data or using a different device will result in loss of your saved CV. Download your CV regularly to keep a backup.

Intellectual Property

The Service and its original content (excluding user-generated content), features, and functionality are owned by FreeCV.org and are protected by international copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.

Our CV templates are provided for personal use. You may use them to create CVs for your own job applications. You may not extract, copy, or redistribute the templates themselves for commercial purposes.

Your CVs

The CVs you create using our Service belong to you. You're free to use, share, and distribute your generated CVs however you wish.

  • The accuracy of AI-generated content (like summaries)

We do our best to provide a reliable, helpful service, but we cannot guarantee perfect performance at all times.

Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, FreeCV.org shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to:

  • Loss of profits, data, or other intangible losses
  • Damages resulting from your use or inability to use the Service
  • Damages resulting from unauthorized access to your data

Changes to Terms

We reserve the right to modify or replace these Terms at any time. When we do, we'll update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page.
