Privacy policy.
Last updated: April 2026
notapdf (“we”, “us”) is operated from Mumbai, India. This policy explains how we handle personal data under India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP Act) and applicable international law.
1. What we collect
When you use notapdf we process:
- Résumé / CV content you upload or paste (name, contact, experience, education, skills)
- Email address (for payment receipts and portfolio delivery)
- Payment metadata from Razorpay (payment ID, timestamp — never card details)
- Anonymous analytics (page views, portfolio view counts, IP-derived country)
2. Legal basis for processing
We process your data for performance of the contract you entered into when you used the service (DPDP Act s.7(a)) — generating your portfolio and delivering it. We do not sell your data and do not process it for advertising.
3. How we use it
Your résumé content is sent to the Anthropic Claude API (US) to generate your portfolio HTML. It is processed in-memory and is not retained on our servers after generation completes. Anthropic’s retention policy applies to their processing — typically up to 30 days for abuse monitoring, then purged. See Anthropic’s privacy policy.
4. Cross-border transfer
Processing happens in the US (Anthropic, Vercel) and India (Razorpay, Upstash). By using notapdf you consent to this transfer under DPDP Act s.16. We select processors that maintain industry-standard security controls.
5. Your portfolio data
Once published, your portfolio is deployed as a public Vercel project. The content you chose to show is publicly accessible at your portfolio URL. You can request deletion by emailing the grievance officer below.
6. Third parties
We share data only with processors required to deliver the service:
- Vercel — hosting, deployment (US)
- Anthropic — AI generation (US)
- Razorpay — payment processing (India)
- Upstash Redis — portfolio view counter (global)
- Resend — transactional email (US)
7. Your rights under the DPDP Act
You have the right to:
- Access a summary of personal data we hold about you
- Correction of inaccurate or incomplete data
- Erasure of your data (portfolios taken offline, records purged)
- Grievance redressal via the officer listed below
- Nomination of another person to exercise your rights in the event of incapacity
To exercise any right, email the grievance officer. We respond within 7 working days.
8. Retention
Résumé content you upload is purged from memory at the end of each generation request. Published portfolio content stays live as long as you want it to — request deletion at any time. Payment records are retained for 7 years per Indian tax law. Analytics logs are retained for 90 days.
9. Security & breach notification
We use HTTPS everywhere, scoped API keys, and environment-variable secret storage. In the event of a personal-data breach affecting you, we will notify you and the Data Protection Board of India within 72 hours of discovery, as required by DPDP Act s.8(6).
10. Cookies
notapdf does not use tracking cookies or third-party advertising cookies. We use only technically necessary cookies for session state.
11. Grievance officer
For any privacy question, data-subject request, or complaint under the DPDP Act:
Shreyas Tiwari
Grievance Officer, notapdf
Email: hello@notapdf.com
You may also lodge a complaint with the Data Protection Board of India if you are unsatisfied with our response.
12. Updates
We update this policy when our processing changes. The “Last updated” date above reflects the most recent revision. Material changes will be announced via email to active users.
