Privacy Policy
Last updated: November 8, 2026
In short:
- I only collect what you choose to send me, plus anonymous visitor counts.
- I never sell your information or use it for advertising.
- The CV Builder and Cover Letter Builder are free, and what you type in them stays on your device.
- I only email you job tips if you sign up for them and tick the consent box. You can unsubscribe anytime.
- You can ask me to see, correct, or delete your information at any time.
Who I am
This website (xybuilds.com) is run by Roanne Xyril Buenaventura ("Xy"), an individual based in the Philippines. For anything about your personal information, email roannexyrilbuenaventura@gmail.com.
What I collect and why
1. Contact form
When you send a message, I receive your name, email address, topic, and message. I use them only to read and reply to you. The message is saved in my website's database and a copy is emailed to me.
I keep messages for as long as I need them to reply and follow up. You can ask me to delete yours at any time.
2. CV Builder and Cover Letter Builder
Both tools are free. Everything you type stays in your own browser (saved as a draft on your device), and your PDF is created on your device. Your CV and cover letter details are not sent to me or stored on my servers. You can clear your draft anytime with "Start over" or by clearing your browser data.
3. Visitor statistics
I use Vercel Web Analytics to count visits: pages viewed, the website that referred you, country, and device type. It uses no cookies and does not identify you personally.
4. Things saved on your own device
Your browser remembers small preferences, like light or dark mode, whether you have already seen the intro, and your CV Builder and Cover Letter drafts. These stay on your device. You can clear them anytime in your browser settings.
5. Project brief ("Start a project" form)
When you send a project brief, I receive what you type: your name, email, country, optional Messenger/WhatsApp/phone, and details about your business and the website you need (project type, pages, budget range, deadline, and notes). I use them only to prepare for our call, give you a quote, and reply to you. The brief is saved in my website's database and a copy is emailed to me. I keep briefs while we're discussing or working on your project, and you can ask me to delete yours at any time.
6. Email list (free CV checklist)
If you sign up for the free CV checklist, I receive your email address, the page you signed up from, the date, and the exact consent statement you agreed to. I use your email only to send you the occasional job-hunting tip. I keep it until you unsubscribe.
To unsubscribe, use the unsubscribe link in any email, or email me at roannexyrilbuenaventura@gmail.com with the subject "Unsubscribe". I'll remove you from the list.
Services that help run this site
These companies process data on my behalf only to provide their service:
| Service | What it does |
|---|---|
| Vercel | Hosts the website and provides the visitor statistics |
| Neon | Stores contact messages, project briefs, and email-list signups (database) |
| Resend | Sends contact messages, project briefs, and signup alerts to my email |
| Google (Gmail, Google Fonts) | Receives my notification emails; Google Fonts delivers the website's fonts to your browser |
The Messenger, Facebook, and Instagram buttons take you to Meta's own websites, which have their own privacy policies.
What I don't do
- I don't sell, rent, or trade your personal information.
- I don't use it for advertising or share it with marketers.
- I don't add you to my email list unless you sign up yourself and tick the consent box. Sending a contact message or using the CV Builder does not sign you up.
Your rights
Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173), you have the right to be informed, to access your information, to correct it, to object, and to ask for it to be deleted. Email me at roannexyrilbuenaventura@gmail.com and I will respond as soon as I can.
If you feel your concern wasn't handled properly, you may contact the National Privacy Commission.
Keeping your information safe
The website uses a secure (HTTPS) connection, and stored information is kept with the providers above. Only I can access contact messages, project briefs, and signups. No method is 100% secure, but I take reasonable steps to protect your information.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, I'll update it on this page and change the "Last updated" date above.
