  • •You can request deletion at any time (see Section 9).

8. Security

We use encryption in transit (TLS), encryption at rest for databases and object storage, role-based access controls, and regular dependency reviews. No system is perfectly secure, but we take reasonable steps appropriate to the sensitivity of CV data.

9. Your rights

Under UK and EU GDPR you have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict processing of, and port your personal data, and to object to certain processing. You can also withdraw consent and lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.

To exercise any right, email hello@cvblend.ai. We respond within 30 days. The UK supervisory authority is the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk).

10. Children

CVBlend.AI is not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect data from children. If you believe a child has provided us with data, contact us and we will delete it.

11. Automated decision-making

Our CV optimisation and ATS scoring use automated processing to provide insights and recommendations. These are advisory; we do not make decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects on you without human involvement.

12. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy. The "Last updated" date reflects the most recent version. Material changes will be flagged in-product or by email where appropriate.
