Terms of Use
These Terms of Use govern access to and use of Psychologist.CV, including the public website, account system, CV and cover-letter templates, document-import tools, editing interface, PDF generation, public CV pages, sharing features, scripts, interfaces, and related services. Psychologist.CV is operated by Dot Coms, Inc.. By accessing or using any part of the Service, you acknowledge that you have reviewed these Terms, have the legal capacity to accept them, and agree to comply with every provision that applies to your use. Psychologist.CV is a specialized publishing and document-creation platform. It allows psychologists, psychology professionals, researchers, educators, trainees, and other eligible users to prepare professional materials, upload supported documents, generate downloadable files, and optionally publish a CV at a public web address. The Service does not verify professional credentials, guarantee employment or academic outcomes, or replace independent legal, licensing, ethical, clinical, or career advice. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not create an account, upload a document, publish a CV, use a template, or otherwise use the Service. The Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy are incorporated into these Terms by reference.
1. Operator, ownership, and defined terms
Psychologist.CV, its domain name, brand, logo, original software, workflows, page architecture, template system, visual design, documentation, compilations, metadata, and proprietary operating elements are owned by Dot Coms, Inc. or used under authorization from applicable licensors. All rights not expressly granted are reserved. References to “Psychologist.CV,” the “Service,” “we,” “us,” or “our” mean the Psychologist.CV platform and Dot Coms, Inc., except where the context clearly requires a different meaning. “User Content” means information, text, photographs, logos, professional history, uploaded files, imported material, messages, and other content submitted, created, stored, shared, or published by a user. No user acquires an ownership interest in the Service by creating an account, using a template, publishing a CV, linking to a page, or providing feedback. The absence of a copyright, trademark, or proprietary notice on a page does not waive any right or grant permission to reproduce, modify, distribute, scrape, resell, or commercially exploit protected material.
2. Nature and scope of the Service
The Service provides tools for creating, editing, formatting, importing, downloading, sharing, and publishing professional CVs and cover letters. Features may include predesigned psychology-focused templates, section editors, document conversion, PDF generation, public profile URLs, account settings, and email-based sharing tools. The Service is a technical platform, not an employer, recruiter, credentialing organization, licensing board, university, healthcare provider, professional association, records custodian, or background-check service. We do not evaluate whether a user is qualified for a position, licensed in a jurisdiction, entitled to use a professional title, or compliant with a particular employer, board, payer, court, university, or professional-association requirement. Examples, sample language, section names, template content, and suggested organization are provided for convenience only. Users must independently determine whether their documents satisfy the rules and expectations that apply to them.
3. Eligibility and legal capacity
You may create an account or use nonpublic account features only if you are at least eighteen years old, have reached the age of legal majority where you live, and can enter into a binding agreement. The Service is not directed to children and is not designed for use by minors without lawful authorization and appropriate adult involvement. You may use the Service only where access and use are lawful. You are responsible for compliance with laws, professional rules, employment obligations, institutional policies, licensing requirements, court orders, contractual restrictions, sanctions, export controls, and other requirements applicable to you. We may refuse, restrict, or terminate access when eligibility cannot be established, when use would create legal or security risk, or when an account appears to have been created through false information, automated abuse, impersonation, or circumvention of a prior restriction.
4. Account registration and security
Account information must be accurate, current, and associated with a working email address that you are authorized to use. You may not create an account for another person without authority, create misleading duplicate accounts, impersonate another individual or organization, or falsely claim an affiliation with Psychologist.CV or Dot Coms, Inc.. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and for activity performed through your account. You must use reasonable safeguards, avoid sharing credentials, sign out on shared devices, and notify Client Assistance promptly if you believe an account has been compromised or accessed without authorization. We may require email confirmation, security checks, password resets, additional information, or temporary restrictions when reasonably necessary to protect the account, the Service, other users, or third parties. We are not responsible for loss caused by a user’s failure to secure credentials or maintain access to the registered email address.
5. Free access and feature availability
Psychologist.CV may make some or all features available without a subscription charge. Free availability does not create a perpetual obligation to provide any particular feature, storage amount, template, public URL, export format, or level of support. We may add, remove, limit, redesign, replace, or reorganize features for maintenance, security, legal compliance, compatibility, capacity, abuse prevention, product development, or other legitimate operational reasons. A feature may be unavailable temporarily or permanently, and older documents may require adjustment after a technical or design change. Nothing in these Terms guarantees that a particular browser, device, file type, operating system, printer, PDF viewer, email provider, search engine, or third-party platform will remain compatible with the Service.
6. Templates, builder tools, and generated documents
Templates and builder tools are intended to help users organize professional information. They are not representations that a document is complete, error-free, legally compliant, ethically appropriate, accessible, applicant-tracking-system compatible, accepted by an employer, or suitable for every professional purpose. Formatting may vary by browser, screen size, printer, PDF renderer, font availability, content length, image dimensions, imported markup, and user editing. Users must review every generated or published document before relying on it, sending it, printing it, or making it public. You may use a template to create your own professional materials through the Service. You may not extract, reproduce, resell, sublicense, redistribute, mirror, frame, mass-download, or use the templates or builder interface to create a competing product, template library, automated service, or training dataset.
7. Uploaded documents and imported content
The Service may permit import or upload of supported document formats, including text-based PDF, DOCX, HTML, and TXT files. You represent that you own the uploaded material or have all permissions necessary to process it through the Service. Import tools may extract text, headings, lists, links, or other document structure. Conversion is inherently imperfect. Layout, fonts, columns, tables, images, headers, footers, page breaks, special characters, and complex formatting may be altered, omitted, or rearranged. Scanned or image-only documents may not be readable by text-import tools. You must inspect imported content before saving, publishing, sharing, or downloading it. Do not upload malicious code, password-protected files that you are not authorized to open, copyrighted material without permission, confidential records belonging to another person, or files that exceed stated limits or interfere with system operation.
8. Ownership of User Content
As between you and Dot Coms, Inc., you retain ownership of User Content that you lawfully create or submit. These Terms do not transfer ownership of your original professional information to us. You are solely responsible for User Content and for obtaining permissions from every person whose name, photograph, quotation, publication, recommendation, contact information, logo, trademark, work product, or other protected material appears in it. You must not imply that another person endorsed you or authorized publication when they did not. You represent that User Content is accurate to the best of your knowledge, does not infringe intellectual-property, privacy, publicity, confidentiality, contractual, or other rights, and may lawfully be processed in the manner you request.
9. License necessary to operate the Service
You grant Dot Coms, Inc. a limited, worldwide, nonexclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, format, convert, display, transmit, cache, back up, and otherwise process User Content only as reasonably necessary to operate, secure, maintain, improve, and provide the features you request. For a published CV, this license includes displaying the selected content at the public URL, generating previews, transmitting the page to visitors, and allowing ordinary search-engine or browser access. For a sharing request, it includes generating and transmitting the requested email or link. The license ends when the relevant content is deleted or the account is closed, except to the extent copies remain temporarily in backups, logs, caches, fraud-prevention records, legal records, or systems where retention is reasonably necessary or legally required. Deletion from Psychologist.CV cannot force deletion of copies made by recipients, search engines, archives, employers, or other third parties.
10. Public CVs, publication, and search-engine indexing
A CV is not public merely because it exists in an account. Publication occurs when a user activates or uses a public-publishing feature. A published CV may be accessible to anyone who knows, receives, discovers, or searches for its public URL. Public pages may be indexed, cached, copied, quoted, archived, linked, screenshotted, printed, downloaded, or redistributed by search engines and third parties. Unpublishing or deleting a CV removes or disables the Service’s version when processing is complete, but does not guarantee immediate removal from search results, browser caches, web archives, recipient systems, or independent copies. Before publication, remove information you do not want publicly available. This may include home addresses, personal phone numbers, dates of birth, signatures, government identifiers, private email addresses, confidential employment information, patient information, and security credentials. A public Psychologist.CV page is user-authored content. Its availability does not mean that Dot Coms, Inc. verified the identity, education, license, certification, employment, publication record, competence, background, or professional standing of the person described.
11. Professional accuracy, licensure, and ethical obligations
Users must accurately describe degrees, licenses, registrations, certifications, training, supervised experience, employment, publications, presentations, research, memberships, awards, and professional roles. You may not use protected titles, post-nominal letters, license numbers, institutional affiliations, or specialty claims in a misleading or unauthorized manner. Psychologists and other regulated professionals remain responsible for complying with licensing-board rules, ethical codes, advertising restrictions, telehealth rules, employer policies, academic-integrity standards, publication standards, and requirements governing representation of credentials. We do not monitor every CV and do not undertake a duty to investigate credentials. We may remove or restrict content when credible information suggests impersonation, material misrepresentation, unlawful professional advertising, infringement, fraud, or risk to users or the public.
12. Protected health information, patient data, and confidential records
Psychologist.CV is not a clinical-record system, electronic health record, patient portal, telehealth platform, secure clinical file-transfer service, or emergency service. The Service is not intended to receive, maintain, or transmit patient records, psychotherapy notes, treatment information, protected health information, substance-use-disorder records, or other clinical data. Do not include identifiable patient or client information in a CV, cover letter, uploaded document, support request, recommendation, portfolio example, publication description, case illustration, or shared message. Professional accomplishments must be described without violating confidentiality, privilege, consent requirements, institutional rules, research obligations, or applicable law. Use of Psychologist.CV does not by itself create a covered-entity, business-associate, healthcare-provider, psychologist-client, or similar relationship between a user and Dot Coms, Inc.. We do not enter into a business associate agreement merely because a user is a healthcare professional.
13. Prohibited content
You may not submit, publish, transmit, or link to content that is unlawful, fraudulent, defamatory, threatening, harassing, hateful, sexually exploitative, invasive of privacy, malicious, deceptive, or designed to facilitate wrongdoing. Content may not infringe copyright, trademark, publicity, confidentiality, database, contract, or other rights. You may not publish another person’s identity documents, passwords, access tokens, financial-account information, Social Security numbers, government identifiers, private communications, patient data, or other highly sensitive information without a lawful and compelling basis. We may act on content reports without being required to adjudicate private disputes. Removal, restriction, preservation, or non-removal of content does not constitute an admission about ownership, liability, truth, professional status, or legal rights.
14. Prohibited conduct and technical abuse
Users must not interfere with the Service, servers, databases, scripts, authentication systems, access controls, PDF generation, file-processing tools, public pages, analytics, security measures, or network resources. Attempts to gain unauthorized access, probe vulnerabilities, bypass limits, introduce malware, overwhelm resources, or disrupt another user are prohibited. Automated access must respect applicable law, published technical instructions, rate limits, and reasonable resource constraints. Scraping, harvesting, bulk account creation, credential stuffing, unsolicited messaging, systematic copying, competitive extraction, reverse engineering, or repeated requests that impair availability are prohibited unless expressly authorized in writing. You may not use the Service to train an artificial-intelligence system on proprietary templates or platform content, create a substitute CV-builder product, resell access, conceal malicious links, distribute spam, manipulate search results, or falsely imply sponsorship or endorsement.
15. Email sharing and communications initiated by users
Sharing tools allow a user to send a CV link or related message to a recipient. You are responsible for entering the correct address, having a lawful and appropriate reason to contact the recipient, and ensuring that the message is not deceptive, harassing, unsolicited bulk communication, or prohibited by anti-spam, employment, privacy, or professional rules. A message sent through the Service may identify the sender, include user-provided text, and invite the recipient to view a public or accessible document. We do not guarantee delivery, inbox placement, recipient review, or continued availability of the linked CV. You may not use sharing features to build mailing lists, send advertisements, transmit confidential clinical information, impersonate another sender, or evade a recipient’s request not to be contacted. We may restrict sharing activity that appears abusive, automated, misleading, excessive, or harmful to email reputation.
16. Intellectual property and acceptable reuse
Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, revocable, nonexclusive, nontransferable, nonsublicensable license to access and use the Service for lawful personal and professional document creation. This license does not authorize ownership, resale, republication, white-labeling, sublicensing, or commercial exploitation of the platform. Psychologist.CV templates, interface elements, icons, graphics, software, source code, workflow design, documentation, and branding may not be copied or used outside the normal operation of the Service except with written permission or as permitted by mandatory law. Third-party names, marks, fonts, libraries, photographs, and other materials remain the property of their respective owners. Their appearance does not imply endorsement and does not grant a license from the applicable rights holder.
17. Copyright, trademark, and rights complaints
A rights holder may submit a sufficiently detailed complaint through Client Assistance identifying the protected work or right, the specific Psychologist.CV URL or content, the claimant’s authority, contact information, the requested action, and a good-faith explanation of the alleged violation. We may request additional information, preserve relevant records, restrict access, remove content, restore content, forward a complaint or response to affected parties, or decline to act when a request is incomplete, abusive, fraudulent, or unsupported. Submission or handling of a complaint does not create an attorney-client relationship, guarantee a particular outcome, waive defenses, or constitute an admission of infringement, ownership, liability, or wrongdoing.
18. Third-party services, links, and independent websites
The Service may rely on or link to hosting providers, email services, analytics tools, security services, fonts, libraries, file-processing components, external support services, and other third parties. Those providers may operate under separate terms and privacy notices. External links and recipient destinations are independently controlled. We do not guarantee their availability, security, accuracy, accessibility, privacy practices, content, products, services, or continued compatibility. Your dealings with a third party are between you and that party. Dot Coms, Inc. is not responsible for independent transactions, representations, failures, tracking practices, malware, losses, or disputes arising outside the Service, except to the extent responsibility cannot legally be excluded.
19. Privacy, cookies, analytics, and security
Use of the Service is subject to the Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy. Those policies describe categories of information that may be processed, purposes of processing, publication choices, service providers, retention, user rights, browser technologies, and security practices. No online service can guarantee absolute security. Users must maintain secure devices, browsers, networks, email accounts, passwords, and backups. You should not use the Service as the only repository for information that is important to you. We may use logging, traffic analysis, rate limiting, access restrictions, fraud detection, file validation, backups, and other protective measures. Security measures may result in blocked requests, delayed processing, or temporary restrictions.
20. No professional advice, employment promise, or credential verification
The Service provides document-creation and publishing tools only. It does not provide psychotherapy, diagnosis, treatment, crisis response, legal advice, licensure advice, tax advice, compliance advice, human-resources advice, recruitment services, background checks, credentialing, supervision, continuing-education credit, or individualized career counseling. No psychologist-client, physician-patient, attorney-client, supervisor-supervisee, employer-employee, recruiter-applicant, fiduciary, or other professional relationship is created by using the Service. Templates, examples, automated formatting, or support communications do not guarantee interviews, employment, promotion, admission, publication, licensure, reimbursement, credentialing, or any other outcome. Users must obtain qualified independent advice when needed.
21. Availability, preservation, and risk of data loss
The Service may be interrupted by maintenance, software errors, hosting failures, cyberattacks, capacity limits, provider outages, domain or certificate issues, legal requests, network conditions, or events beyond reasonable control. Continuous availability, error-free operation, and permanent storage are not guaranteed. Users are responsible for keeping current copies of CVs, cover letters, source documents, images, publications, and other important materials outside Psychologist.CV. Downloaded files should be reviewed and backed up using systems controlled by the user. We may correct, repair, migrate, reformat, disable, or remove data when reasonably necessary to restore operation, address corruption, enforce these Terms, protect security, comply with law, or respond to a user request.
22. Suspension, restriction, and termination
We may suspend, limit, unpublish, or terminate access when we reasonably believe an account or content violates these Terms, infringes rights, creates security or legal risk, consumes excessive resources, involves fraud or impersonation, or threatens the Service or another person. When appropriate, we may provide notice or an opportunity to correct a problem. Immediate action may be taken when delay could increase harm, compromise security, violate law, damage infrastructure, or interfere with an investigation. A user may stop using the Service and may use available account controls to unpublish or delete content. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination—including ownership, licenses necessary for retained copies, disclaimers, limitations, indemnity, dispute provisions, and enforcement rights—remain effective.
23. Disclaimer of warranties
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS,” “AS AVAILABLE,” AND “WITH ALL FAULTS.” DOT COMS, INCORPORATED DISCLAIMS ALL EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, AND OTHER WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, SECURITY, RELIABILITY, AVAILABILITY, PROFESSIONAL ACCEPTANCE, AND RESULTS. We do not warrant that templates will meet every institutional requirement, that imported documents will retain formatting, that PDFs will render identically on every system, that public pages will be indexed or removed by search engines, that messages will be delivered, or that errors will be corrected within a particular period. No oral statement, support response, sample document, promotional description, or course of dealing creates a warranty unless contained in a written agreement signed by an authorized representative of Dot Coms, Inc.. Some jurisdictions do not permit certain disclaimers, so they apply only to the fullest extent allowed.
24. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, DOT COMS, INCORPORATED AND ITS OWNERS, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, AFFILIATES, LICENSORS, AND SERVICE PROVIDERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES; LOSS OF DATA, REPUTATION, OPPORTUNITY, EMPLOYMENT, REVENUE, PROFITS, OR GOODWILL; OR COSTS OF SUBSTITUTE SERVICES ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE. This limitation applies to claims involving account access, document loss, formatting changes, imported files, public disclosure, search indexing, third-party copying, inaccurate User Content, email delivery, security incidents, interruptions, provider conduct, or reliance on templates or generated documents, regardless of legal theory and even if the possibility of loss was known. Where liability cannot be excluded, aggregate liability arising from the Service will not exceed the greater of the amount the claimant paid directly to Dot Coms, Inc. for the specific Service during the twelve months before the event or one hundred United States dollars, except where applicable law requires a different remedy.
25. Indemnification
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Dot Coms, Inc. and its owners, officers, directors, employees, contractors, affiliates, licensors, and service providers from claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, losses, costs, and reasonable legal fees arising from your User Content, publication choices, sharing activity, uploaded files, violation of these Terms, misuse of the Service, or infringement of another person’s rights. We may control the defense and settlement of a covered matter, and you agree to provide reasonable cooperation. You may not settle a matter in a way that admits fault by, imposes obligations on, or restricts Dot Coms, Inc. without written consent. This section does not require indemnification to the extent prohibited by law or to the extent a claim results solely from conduct for which Dot Coms, Inc. is legally responsible and responsibility cannot be shifted.
26. Governing principles, disputes, and informal resolution
These Terms are governed by the law applicable to Dot Coms, Inc. and operation of the Service, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, except where mandatory consumer law requires otherwise. Before commencing formal proceedings, a claimant should provide written notice through Client Assistance describing the dispute, relevant account or URL, material facts, requested relief, and contact information, and allow a reasonable opportunity for investigation and informal resolution. Nothing in this section prevents a party from seeking emergency injunctive relief, protecting intellectual property, reporting unlawful conduct, responding to legal process, or exercising a right that cannot lawfully be waived. To the extent permitted by law, claims should be brought individually rather than as a class, collective, coordinated, private-attorney-general, or representative proceeding.
27. General legal provisions
If a provision is invalid or unenforceable, it will be modified or severed only to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will continue in effect. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver, and a waiver in one instance is not a continuing waiver. You may not assign or transfer your rights or obligations without written consent. Dot Coms, Inc. may assign these Terms in connection with a restructuring, affiliate operation, merger, acquisition, financing, asset transfer, change of control, or succession. These Terms, together with incorporated policies and any feature-specific written terms, constitute the entire agreement concerning the Service and supersede prior statements on the same subject. Headings are for convenience, examples are not exhaustive, and “including” means “including without limitation.”
28. Changes and contact
We may revise these Terms to reflect changes in the Service, law, technology, security practices, providers, or business operations. The revised version will be posted on this page. Continued use after the revised Terms become effective constitutes acceptance to the extent permitted by law. Material changes may also be communicated through the website, account interface, or registered email address when reasonably appropriate. You are responsible for reviewing the current version before continued use. Questions, legal notices, security concerns, rights complaints, and disputes concerning Psychologist.CV should be submitted through Client Assistance. Provide enough detail to identify the account, public URL, content, or event involved, but do not include patient information, passwords, or unnecessary sensitive information.
