Privacy Policy
Effective date: March 30, 2025
1. Introduction
Talory ("we", "us", or "our") operates talory.io (the "Service"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect information about you when you use our Service.
By using Talory, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.
2. Information We Collect
Account information: When you register, we collect your name, email address, and a hashed (never plain-text) password.
Resume content: You may paste or upload your resume. This content is sent to our AI pipeline to tailor it to job descriptions you provide. We store the tailored output and associated metadata (job title, company, keyword scores) in your history.
Job descriptions: Job descriptions you paste or that we scrape at your request are used solely to tailor your resume and are not stored independently.
Payment information: Payments are processed by Stripe. We do not store your card number or full payment details. We receive a Stripe customer ID and subscription ID to track your plan status.
Usage data: We collect basic usage data such as the number of tailorings performed, timestamps, and error logs. We do not use third-party analytics trackers.
Cookies: We use a single session cookie (resumeai_token) to keep you logged in. We do not use advertising or tracking cookies.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Provide, operate, and improve the Service
- Tailor your resume using AI models (Anthropic Claude)
- Send transactional emails (email verification, account notifications)
- Process payments and manage your subscription via Stripe
- Enforce usage limits based on your plan
- Respond to support requests and communicate with you
- Detect and prevent fraud, abuse, or security incidents
We do not sell your personal data. We do not use your resume content to train AI models.
4. AI Processing
Resume tailoring is powered by Anthropic's Claude API. Your resume text and job descriptions are sent to Anthropic's servers for processing. Anthropic's privacy policy governs how they handle API inputs. We do not share your name, email, or account information with Anthropic — only the text content needed for tailoring.
We do not use your resume or job description content to train our own models or any third-party models.
5. Data Storage and Security
Your data is stored in a PostgreSQL database hosted on Neon (neon.tech), a SOC 2-compliant cloud database provider. Passwords are hashed using bcrypt and never stored in plain text.
We use industry-standard security practices including HTTPS, secure cookies, and JWT-based authentication. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure.
We retain your account data and tailoring history for as long as your account is active. You may delete individual tailoring records at any time from your dashboard history. To delete your full account, contact us at hello@talory.io.
