Cookie Policy

No confusing jargon here! We'll explain exactly how NestCV uses cookies to make your experience better.

Last updated: February 2, 2026

Hey there! 👋 Before you dive in, here's the gist: we use cookies to keep things running smoothly on NestCV. They help us remember your preferences, keep you logged in, and understand what's working well on our site.

Want the full picture on how we handle your data? Check out our Privacy Policy for all the details.

So, What Exactly Are Cookies?

No, we're not talking about the chocolate chip kind (though those are great too! 🍪). Digital cookies are tiny text files that websites save on your device when you visit. Think of them like little notes that help a website remember who you are and what you like.

Here's what they do for you:

  • Remember your settings — like your preferred template colors or font choices
  • Keep you logged in — so you don't have to sign in every single time
  • Help us improve — by showing us which features people love (and which need work)
  • Make things faster — speeding up how quickly pages load for you

The Different Types of Cookies We Use

Not all cookies are created equal! Here's a breakdown of the ones you'll find on NestCV:

🔒 Essential Cookies (The Must-Haves)

These keep the lights on. Without them, basic things like logging in or saving your resume wouldn't work. We can't turn these off — they're absolutely necessary for the site to function.

⚙️ Functional Cookies (The Helpers)

These remember your choices and preferences. Love using dark mode? Prefer a specific language? These cookies make sure you don't have to set things up again every time you visit.

📊 Performance Cookies (The Improvers)

These help us understand how people use our site — which pages are popular, where folks get stuck, that sort of thing. Don't worry, this data is anonymous and grouped together. We're looking at trends, not tracking individuals.

📈 Analytics Cookies (The Learners)

We use tools like Google Analytics to see how people interact with our resume builder. This helps us figure out what's working and what needs improvement — so we can keep making NestCV better for you.

Third-Party Cookies

We work with a few trusted partners who may also place cookies on your device. Here's who they are and why:

📊 Google Analytics

This is our go-to for understanding how our site performs. Google Analytics helps us see things like how many people visit, which pages they check out, and how long they stay. All of this data is anonymized — we see patterns, not personal info.

🔐 Firebase (for Login)

When you create an account or log in, Firebase handles the authentication. It sets a cookie to keep your session secure and remember that you're signed in.

📢 Advertising Partners

Sometimes we show ads to keep NestCV free. Our ad partners may use cookies to show you relevant ads based on your interests. We're picky about who we work with, and you can always opt out (more on that below).

How We Use Analytics

Let's be real — we want to make NestCV the best resume builder out there. Analytics help us do exactly that by showing us:

  • Which templates are the crowd favorites
  • Where people might be getting confused (so we can fix it)
  • Any bugs or slow pages that need attention
  • What new features you might love

Your Privacy Is Protected 🛡️

Here's the thing: we're looking at big-picture data, not spying on individuals. The analytics we collect are grouped together and don't personally identify you. Your resume content? That stays between you and your future employer.

Want to Control Your Cookies? Here's How

You're in the driver's seat. If you want to manage or block cookies, you've got options:

🌐 Browser Settings

Every major browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge) lets you control cookies. You can block them, delete them, or get notified whenever a site tries to set one. Just head to your browser's privacy settings.

📉 Opt Out of Google Analytics

Not a fan of being counted in website stats? No problem. Install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on and you're all set.

🚫 Manage Ad Preferences

Want to control personalized ads across the web? Check out the Digital Advertising Alliance's opt-out page to customize what you see.

Heads up: Blocking some cookies might affect how NestCV works for you. Essential cookies can't be turned off — without them, you wouldn't be able to log in or save your resume.

The Bottom Line: It's Your Choice

We believe in transparency and giving you control. Here are your options when it comes to cookies:

✅ Accept All Cookies

Keep using NestCV as usual and enjoy the full experience — personalization, analytics, the works.

⚡ Customize Your Settings

Use your browser settings to pick and choose which cookies you're comfortable with.

Whatever you decide, we respect it. Got questions? We're just an email away.

Updates to This Policy

The web is always evolving, and so are we. We might update this Cookie Policy from time to time — maybe to reflect new features, legal changes, or better ways of doing things. When we make significant updates, we'll update the date at the top of this page.

Feel free to pop back here occasionally to stay in the loop. We promise to keep it readable (no lawyer-speak!).

Got Questions? Let's Chat!

If anything about this Cookie Policy left you scratching your head, we'd love to hear from you. No question is too small!
