Privacy Policy
Last updated April 28, 2026
What we collect
No account, no email. Facet does not require sign-in. We do not collect a name, email address, or any other identifier from you.
Text you submit. The resume bullet, headline, or summary you paste into Facet, the target role you enter, and the mode you select are sent to Google’s Gemini API so that it can generate rewrites. Facet itself does not store the text you submit on our servers.
Local device data. Facet stores a small amount of information in your browser’s local storage: your rewrite history (up to 20 most recent entries), your target role, and your theme preference. This data lives on your device and is never sent to our servers. Clearing your browser data removes it.
IP address (rate limiting). To prevent abuse, the rewrite endpoint is rate-limited per IP address. The IP is hashed and used only as a rate-limit key, not stored as a user record.

Third parties
Google (AI processing). The text you submit is sent to Google’s Gemini API for rewriting. Google’s handling of that data is governed by the Gemini API Terms. On paid API tiers, Google does not use submitted data to train its models. On free tiers, Google may use submitted data to improve products. Please review Google’s terms before submitting any content you consider confidential.
Vercel (hosting and analytics). The service is hosted on Vercel, which receives request metadata (IP, user agent, URL) needed to serve pages. Vercel Web Analytics captures aggregate, anonymous pageview statistics. See Vercel’s Privacy Policy.
PostHog (product analytics). We use PostHog to understand how the product is used — which pages are visited, which features are clicked, which modes are popular. PostHog receives event metadata and device information. It does not receive the text you paste into Facet. Session recording is disabled. See PostHog’s Privacy Policy.
Sentry (error tracking). When something breaks, we send the error details (stack trace, route, browser) to Sentry so we can fix it. Request bodies on /api/rewrite (the text you paste) are replaced with a placeholder before leaving our server. See Sentry’s Privacy Policy.

How we use the data
We use the data above only to operate the service: to produce rewrites, to enforce rate limits, and to show you your own recent history on your device. We do not sell your data. We do not use it for advertising. We do not share it with third parties other than the service providers listed above.
Retention
We retain no server-side record of the text you submit. Local-device data persists until you clear it.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or export personal data we hold about you, and to object to certain processing. To exercise any of these rights, email us using the contact below. We will respond within a reasonable time.
Children
Facet is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect data from them. If you believe a child has provided data to us, contact us and we will delete it.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the “Last updated” date above.
