Privacy policy

Last updated 13 November 2026

AdwumaAI helps people in Ghana find jobs and apply for them. This page explains, in plain words, what personal data we collect, why, who we share it with and the rights you have under Ghana's Data Protection Act, 2012 (Act 843).

What we collect

Account details: your name, email, phone number (optional) and a securely hashed password. We never see or store your password itself.
Your CV and what AdwumaAI reads from it (experience, education, skills, contact details), plus the CVs you build here.
Your job search: the roles, cities and preferences you tell the agent, jobs found for you, application packs, cover letters, interview practice answers, your applications board and notes.
Voice: when you use voice input, the recording is turned into text and not kept.
Payments: the credit packs you buy and their status. Card and Mobile Money details are handled by Paystack; we never receive them.
Employers: company details, vacancies and the applications you receive.
Technical data: basic logs (such as IP address and error messages) kept for security and to fix problems.

How we use it

To find and score jobs for you, write application packs, cover letters and CVs, fill application forms you open, and coach you for interviews.
To send what you ask for: password resets, email confirmation, job alerts and reminders. You can switch alerts off in Settings at any time.
To run credits and payments, prevent fraud and abuse, and keep the service secure.
To build the public salary guide from salaries stated in job adverts. It never uses your own salary or personal data.

We don't sell your data, and we don't use it for advertising.

When you apply for a job

If you apply to a vacancy posted on AdwumaAI, that employer receives your name, contact details, CV and cover letter. When you fill a form on another website, the information goes to that website and is covered by its own privacy policy. AdwumaAI never submits an application without you pressing Submit.

Services we use

Your data is processed by these providers only to run AdwumaAI:

Vercel (hosting) and Supabase (database and CV file storage), with servers in the European Union.
AI providers (through OpenRouter) that read your CV and job details to score jobs and write text for you.
Paystack (payments), Resend (email) and, if you turn on notifications, your browser's push service.

Your data is processed outside Ghana (mainly in the European Union and the United States). By creating an account you agree to this transfer. We use these providers under their data protection terms, and send only what each task needs.

How long we keep it

We keep your data while your account is open. When you delete your account, your CV files, profile, jobs, applications and notification settings are deleted straight away. Payment records are kept for as long as tax and accounting law requires, without your name or contact details.

Your rights

See and correct your data in the app (My agent, CV builder, Settings).
Delete your account and data yourself: Settings → Delete my account.
Ask us for a copy of your data, object to how it's used, or complain: contact us at Settings. You can also complain to the Data Protection Commission of Ghana.

Security

Connections are encrypted (HTTPS), passwords are hashed, CV files are kept in private storage, and access is limited to what each part of the service needs. No system is perfectly secure: use a strong password that you don't use elsewhere.

Children

AdwumaAI is for people aged 18 and over. We don't knowingly keep data about anyone younger; if you think we do, contact us and we'll delete it.

Changes

If we change this policy in an important way, we'll tell you in the app or by email before the change applies.
