Terms of
Service.
Last updated: February 28, 2026
Welcome to CVForge (cvforge.in). By accessing or using our service, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. Please read them carefully before using the platform.
Acceptance of terms
By using CVForge, you confirm that you are at least 18 years of age and have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms. If you use CVForge on behalf of an organisation, you represent that you have authority to bind that organisation to these Terms.
Description of service
CVForge is an AI-powered resume builder and optimizer. Our service allows you to:
- Upload a resume (PDF or Word format) for AI-powered text extraction
- Select from professional resume templates
- Optionally purchase AI optimization of your resume content
- Download your formatted resume as PDF or Word document
No account or registration is required to use the core service.
Payments and refunds
CVForge operates on a pay-per-use model:
- ₹5 — Each download of your resume (PDF or Word, original or optimized)
- ₹9 — AI optimization of your resume content (downloads billed separately)
- ₹25 — Real-Time AI Editor: 2 hours of live editing with 1 free PDF or Word download included
All payments are processed securely via Razorpay. CVForge does not store your payment card details.
Due to the digital and immediately consumable nature of our services, all payments are non-refundable once the service has been delivered (i.e., once the AI has processed your resume or you have downloaded a file). If you experience a technical issue that prevented delivery, please fill out our feedback form at cvforge.in/feedback and we will review your case.
Referral programme
CVForge offers an opt-in referral programme. By signing up at cvforge.in/refer with your email and a 6-digit verification code, you receive a 6-character referral code (e.g. RAJ4K7) that you can share with others.
The programme works on a points basis:
- 1 point for each ₹5 download paid using your code
- 2 points for each ₹9 AI optimisation paid using your code
- 3 points for each ₹25 Real-Time AI Editor purchase paid using your code
6 points unlocks one free 2-hour Real-Time AI Editor session (₹25 retail value), redeemable on any uploaded resume from the editor card.
Lifetime cap: a maximum of 3 free editor sessions can be earned per referrer email, regardless of additional points accumulated beyond that.
Anti-abuse rules:
- The same browser session can only credit a referral code once
- The same payment instrument (card / UPI ID / wallet) can only credit a referral code once
- Self-referral is allowed (you may use your own code), subject to the same dedupe rules above
- Disposable email domains are not eligible for sign-up
Refunded payments do not earn points — if a payment is refunded after a point is awarded, that point is reversed at our discretion.
Free editor credits earned through the programme have no monetary value, are non-transferable, are non-refundable, and cannot be converted to cash. CVForge reserves the right to revoke credits, suspend accounts, or modify the programme's terms at any time without notice if abuse, fraud, or repeated violations of these Terms are detected.
