1. Information We Collect
1.1 Information You Provide
We collect information you provide directly to us, such as when you create an account, apply for jobs, or contact us. This may include:
- Name and email address
- Resume and professional information
- Job search preferences
- Communications with us
1.2 Publicly Available Job Postings
We aggregate job opportunities and freelance projects from publicly available sources, including social media platforms such as LinkedIn. When individuals or companies publicly post job opportunities or project requests, we may collect and display:
- Name of the person or company posting the opportunity
- Professional headline or title
- Profile photo (if publicly available)
- Link to the original public post
- Link to the public profile
- The content of the job posting itself
This information is collected from publicly accessible posts that individuals have chosen to share publicly. We do not collect private messages, private profile information, or any data that requires authentication to access.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Provide, maintain, and improve our services
- Process job applications and connect you with employers
- Send you job alerts and relevant opportunities
- Respond to your comments and questions
- Send promotional communications (with your consent)
3. Legal Basis for Processing
We process personal data under the following legal bases:
- Consent: When you create an account or subscribe to job alerts, you consent to our processing of your data for those purposes.
- Contract: Processing necessary to provide our services to registered users.
- Legitimate Interest: For publicly posted job opportunities, we rely on legitimate interest. Job posters publicly share opportunities with the intent to reach potential candidates. Our aggregation service helps achieve this goal by increasing visibility of their posts to relevant job seekers. This benefits both parties: posters reach more candidates, and job seekers discover more opportunities.
4. Information Sharing
We do not sell your personal information. We may share your information with:
- Employers when you apply for a job
- Service providers who assist in our operations
- Law enforcement when required by law
5. Data Security
We implement appropriate security measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.
6. Data Retention
We retain data for different periods depending on the type:
- User account data: Retained until you delete your account or request deletion.
- Job postings from company career pages: Retained for up to 30 days after the posting date, then automatically deleted.
- Freelance opportunities from social media: Retained for up to 14 days after the posting date, then automatically deleted. This shorter period reflects the typically urgent nature of these opportunities.
7. Your Rights
You have the right to:
- Access and update your personal information
- Request deletion of your data
- Opt-out of marketing communications
- Request a copy of your data
7.1 Removal of Publicly Posted Content
