This Website utilizes cookies to enhance user experience and improve functionality. In compliance with applicable legislation, where required, we implement a cookie control system that allows users to provide explicit consent or deny the use and storage of cookies on their computer or device.

5 – Sponsored Links and Advertising

This Website may feature sponsored links and advertisements, which are typically provided by third-party advertising partners. These partners may have their own privacy policies governing the advertisements they serve. Clicking on any sponsored advertisements may redirect you to an external advertiser’s website via a referral program, which may use cookies to track referral activity. These cookies may be stored on your device. Users should be aware that clicking on any sponsored or external links is done at their own discretion and risk. We do not assume liability for any damages, losses, or consequences resulting from visiting external websites linked through advertisements on this Website. We recommend reviewing the privacy policies of any third-party websites before engaging with their content or services.

Any documents, files, or media made available for download on this Website are provided at the user's own risk. While we take reasonable precautions to ensure that only legitimate and secure downloads are offered, users are strongly advised to verify the authenticity and safety of any downloaded files using third-party antivirus software or similar security applications. We do not assume responsibility for downloads provided by third-party websites or external sources. Users should exercise caution and independently verify the legitimacy and security of any third-party downloads before opening or using them.

7 – User Communications and Personal Information

Users who contact us through this Website do so at their own discretion and provide any requested personal details at their own risk. All personal information submitted is kept private and securely stored until it is no longer required or serves no further purpose.

This is conducted in strict compliance with the GDPR, DPA, and PECR regulations outlined in this Privacy Policy.

8 – Email Marketing & Mailing List

We operate an email mailing list program to inform subscribers about our products, services, and company updates. Subscription to this mailing list is voluntary and requires explicit user consent through a sign-up process. All subscriber information is collected, processed, managed, and stored in compliance with the GDPR, DPA, and PECR regulations referenced in this Privacy Policy. Subscribers may unsubscribe at any time by emailing info@resm.io or via alternative means provided in the footer of our marketing emails. If applicable, subscribers may also opt out of all email marketing platform lists. The type, frequency, and content of marketing messages—including any third-party content—are clearly disclosed at the time of subscription. Our email marketing messages may contain tracking beacons, tracked links, or similar technologies to monitor subscriber engagement. These tracking tools may collect data such as email open rates, click activity, geographic location, demographics, and other relevant subscriber information to improve and tailor our marketing efforts.

9 – External Links and URL Shortening

While we strive to include only reliable, safe, and relevant external links, users are advised to exercise caution before clicking on any links provided on this Website. External links may appear as clickable text, banners, or images that redirect to third-party websites. Additionally, this Website may use shortened URLs, a technique that condenses long web addresses into significantly shorter versions (e.g., https://tinyurl.com/4fxt676t). While commonly used in social media and online content, users should take extra precautions and verify the authenticity of shortened URLs before clicking. Despite our efforts to vet external links, we do not control or guarantee the content, security, or privacy practices of third-party websites. Users access external links at their own risk, and we assume no responsibility for any loss, damage, or consequences resulting from visiting third-party sites linked from this Website.

We maintain a Social Media Policy to ensure that our business and staff engage responsibly and professionally across online platforms. While we may operate official profiles on social media, users are encouraged to verify the authenticity of any profiles before engaging with or sharing information. We will never request passwords or personal details through social media channels. Users should always exercise caution and maintain appropriate conduct when interacting with us on social media. This Website may also include social sharing buttons, enabling users to share content directly from our web pages to their respective social media platforms. The use of social sharing buttons is entirely voluntary and done at the user’s discretion. By using these features, you acknowledge that shared content may be published to your social media profile, feed, or page.

11 – Use of Third-Party AI Services

11.1 Data Transmission to Third-Party AI Services

To provide certain features—such as CV analysis, cover letter generation, and interview question creation—our service utilizes third-party AI services. When you submit your CV, job description, or other relevant text inputs in our application, these data points are sent to third-party servers for processing. This data transmission is necessary for generating the requested content and ensuring the high level of AI-driven functionality our application offers.

11.2 Types of Data Shared

The types of data sent to third-party APIs typically include, but may not be limited to:

  • 1. CV or Resume Content: Work experience, educational background, skill sets, and any optional additional information you choose to provide.
  • 2. Job Description Information: Role responsibilities, qualification requirements, company details, and any other relevant context you include.

11.3 Purpose of Data Sharing

We only share your data with third-party services for the explicit purpose of generating or enhancing the documents or content you request (e.g., cover letters, CV improvements, or interview questions). The data is processed by the AI model and returned to our application, where it is made available to you in the form of generated text or suggestions.

11.4 Data Retention and Access

  • 1. Limited Retention: We do not permanently store any of the text sent to the third-party APIs unless you choose to save the generated documents within your account.
  • 2. Access Controls: Our internal processes ensure that only authorized personnel can access the minimal data necessary for support or troubleshooting.

11.5 Data Security Measures

We employ secure encryption protocols (such as HTTPS/TLS) during data transit to protect your information against unauthorized access or disclosure. Additionally, our third-party services maintain their own security and privacy measures to safeguard the data they process.

11.6 User Consent

By using our service, you acknowledge and consent to this data sharing process. If you do not agree with how we handle your information, you may choose to refrain from using these AI-enhanced features or contact us for further clarification.

11.7 Changes and Updates

We may update this section periodically to reflect changes in our AI service integrations or privacy practices. Please check this policy regularly to stay informed of any modifications.

11.8 International Data Transfers

Our third-party services may process personal data on servers located outside the UK/EU, including in the United States. Where such international data transfers occur, we implement appropriate safeguards in accordance with applicable data protection laws, such as Standard Contractual Clauses or other legally recognized mechanisms. These measures ensure that any transferred personal data is afforded the same level of protection as within the UK/EU. If you would like more information about these safeguards, please contact us at info@resm.io.

11.9 Accuracy and User Responsibility

While our AI-powered features strive to provide accurate, high-quality content, including CVs, cover letters, and interview questions, occasional inaccuracies or omissions may occur. Therefore, all AI-generated outputs should be reviewed and verified by the user before final use. By utilizing these AI features, you acknowledge that you are responsible for the accuracy, completeness, and suitability of any documents or materials generated and for ensuring they meet your specific needs, legal requirements, or professional standards. For additional disclaimers and usage guidelines, please see our Terms of Service.
