Terms of Service
Effective date: [effective date]
1. Agreement
These terms are an agreement between you and [Company legal name] ("CV Boost", "we", "us"). By using the website or app, you accept them. You must be at least [minimum age] years old.
2. What CV Boost is, and is not
- A writing and comparison tool. It compares your CV with a job advert and suggests a tailored CV and cover letter based on what you gave it.
- Not a guarantee. We do not promise interviews, job offers, or that your CV will pass any employer's screening software. The match score is an estimate.
- Not professional advice. Suggestions are general guidance, not career, legal or immigration advice.
- AI can make mistakes. It may misread your CV, misjudge a requirement or word something inaccurately.
- Not connected to employers. We do not send your CV to anyone, and we are not affiliated with the companies whose adverts you paste.
3. Your responsibility for what you send
You are responsible for every CV and cover letter you send to an employer.
- Upload only your own CV, and give only true answers to our questions.
- Review every change before you use it. Fill in or remove any placeholder in square brackets.
- Make sure everything in the final documents is true and accurate. Misstating your experience to an employer can have serious consequences, and those are yours, not ours.
- Do not use CV Boost to create a CV for someone else without their permission, or to fabricate experience, qualifications or references.
4. Your account
Keep your sign-in secure; you are responsible for activity on your account. An account is for one person. Tell us if you believe someone else has used it.
5. Free use, credits and plans
Free score. You can get a limited number of match scores free of charge. We may change the limit.
Applications. A paid "application" covers one job advert: the tailored CV, a cover letter, exports, your own edits, and a limited number of AI rewrites shown in the app. An application is used when the tailored CV is delivered. If tailoring fails, no application is used.
Ways to pay. Single applications, packs, a monthly subscription and a fixed-term pass are shown with their prices before you buy. Prices vary by country and by where you buy.
Buying on the web. Web purchases are processed by [web checkout provider], who is the seller of record and handles payment, tax and invoices under their own terms.
Buying in the apps. Purchases in the mobile apps are made through the App Store or Google Play and charged to your store account.
Subscriptions. A subscription renews automatically each period until you cancel. Cancel on the web in your account settings, or in your store account if you bought in an app, at least 24 hours before renewal. Your plan stays active until the end of the paid period. Deleting your account or the app does not cancel a subscription.
Unused applications. [Decision needed: whether monthly allowances expire at renewal, and whether packs expire.]
Refunds. [Decision needed: your refund policy for web purchases, for example a refund on request if no application from the purchase has been used.] App purchases are refunded by Apple or Google under their policies. Nothing in these terms removes rights you have under the law of your country. [Lawyer: add the withdrawal-right wording required for digital content in the EU and UK.]
Fair use. We may limit or suspend accounts that use the service in ways that are clearly not personal job seeking, such as automated use or resale.
6. Acceptable use
You agree not to: use CV Boost for anything unlawful; upload content that is not yours or that contains other people's private information without permission; try to make the AI produce harmful or deceptive content or reveal its instructions; copy, resell or build a competing service from the product or its output at scale; interfere with the service, get around limits, or access it by automated means. We may suspend or close an account that breaks these rules.
7. Your content and ours
Your content. You keep all rights in your CV, your answers and your notes. You give us permission to process them only to provide the service to you.
What we create for you. As between you and us, the tailored CVs and cover letters are yours to use for your own job applications.
Our service. The website, apps, templates, design and software belong to us or our licensors. You may use the templates only in documents exported from CV Boost for your own use.
Job adverts. Adverts belong to whoever published them. Paste them only to use CV Boost for your own application.
8. Availability and changes
The service depends on third-party AI and hosting and may be interrupted or slow at times. We may change or remove features. If a change significantly reduces what a paid plan includes, we will tell you in advance.
9. Disclaimers and limit of liability
CV Boost is provided "as is". To the extent the law allows, we make no warranties about its accuracy or fitness for a particular purpose, including the accuracy of scores, rewrites and exported files.
To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, lost income or opportunities, or the outcome of any job application; and our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim. Nothing here limits liability that cannot be limited by law, or your rights as a consumer.
10. Ending this agreement
You can stop using CV Boost and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or end your access if you break these terms, or if we stop offering the service, in which case we will give reasonable notice and [decision needed: refund of unused paid applications].
11. Changes, law and contact
We may update these terms and will notify you before significant changes take effect. These terms are governed by the laws of [governing law and courts], unless the consumer law of your country gives you the right to bring a claim where you live.
