Frequently Asked Questions

Is my resume data safe from recruiters, marketers, and data brokers?

Yes. When you use cloud builders like Zety or Resume.io, your personal details, work history, and contact info are saved to their databases and often monetized or sold to third parties. HonestPDF keeps your data strictly on your device. It never touches a server.

Will I receive job marketing spam after building my resume?

Never. We do not require an email address or account creation. Cloud competitors explicitly use your forced sign-up email to bombard you with job alerts and premium subscription upsells. Since we don't collect your data, we literally cannot spam you.

Do I lose access to my resume if your servers go down?

No. Cloud builders lock your career documents inside their proprietary ecosystems: if their servers crash or they change their pricing models, you are locked out. With HonestPDF, the entire builder runs natively in your browser. You own your exported PDF forever, with zero platform dependency.

Are the templates optimized for ATS (Applicant Tracking Systems)?

Yes. Highly graphic, image-heavy templates from Canva often fail corporate ATS parsing, causing automatic resume rejections. HonestPDF exclusively uses clean, structured single-column or ATS-safe two-column layouts that guarantee perfect machine readability by corporate HR software.
