- Resume/CV, work history, education, portfolio links (when you apply for jobs)
- Account username & password (if you register)

4. How We Collect Data

- When you create or update an account or profile.
- When you interact with job listings (apply, save, share).
- Automatically via cookies/analytics and server logs when you visit the Site.
- From third parties (e.g., LinkedIn, GitHub, or job boards) only when you choose to link or import data from them.
5. Purposes for Processing & Legal Basis
We process personal data for the following purposes:
- To provide, operate, and maintain the Site and its features (job listings, applications, account management).
- To process job applications and communicate with applicants and recruiters.
- To send transactional communications (application status, service changes) and optional marketing/newsletters (with opt-in).
- To detect, prevent and address technical issues, fraud, and security incidents.
- To analyze Site usage and improve our services (analytics).
- To comply with legal obligations and respond to lawful requests (e.g., court orders).
We rely on legitimate interests, consent (where required), contractual necessity (where you used a paid service), and legal obligations as the lawful bases for processing personal data. Note: India’s Digital Personal Data Protection framework requires transparency and notice at collection — we follow this approach.
6. Cookies & Tracking Technologies
We use cookies, local storage, web beacons and similar technologies to collect information about your activity on the Site. Cookies help with:
- Remembering your preferences and login state.
- Measuring Site performance and usage (analytics).
- Serving relevant advertising (if applicable).
You can control or delete cookies via your browser settings. Some Site features may not work if cookies are disabled. We recommend including a cookie banner and an option for users to manage cookie preferences. Best practices for cookie notices and management are widely recommended.
7. Third-Party Services & Disclosure
We may share personal data with trusted third parties for the purposes above, including:
- Analytics providers (e.g., Google Analytics)
- Hosting providers and cloud services
- Payment processors (for paid services)
- Email delivery services (for newsletters/notifications)
- When you apply for jobs, recruiters or employers share your application data directly with them as part of the application process.
We require processors to maintain appropriate security and use data only for the services they provide. Replace these placeholders with the actual providers you use, and add their privacy links on your Site. When using third-party ad networks or analytics, ensure their disclosures are included in your cookie notice.
8. Data Retention
We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes described (e.g., to process an application, maintain accounts, comply with legal obligations, or resolve disputes). For example:
- User account data: retained until you delete the account + a reasonable period for backups and legal compliance.
- Application materials: retained for a period required for recruitment and compliance (you may request deletion — see “Your Rights” below).
Retention times depend on the category of data and business needs. We will delete or anonymize data when no longer needed.
9. Security
We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal data (encryption in transit, access controls, periodic security reviews). However, no internet transmission is completely secure. If we become aware of a breach affecting your personal data, we will take steps to investigate and notify affected users and authorities as required by law. Follow recognized security practices and consult counsel for tighter controls if you process sensitive data.
10. Children’s Privacy
The Site is not directed to children under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 18. If you learn we have collected such data, please contact us and we will take steps to delete it. For any service that might involve minors (e.g., educational roles), implement verifiable parental consent where required.
11. International Transfers
Suppose we transfer personal data outside your country. In that case, we will take steps to ensure an adequate level of protection, such as standard contractual clauses or relying on third-party processors that meet equivalent safeguards. Mention exact jurisdictions and safeguards if you transfer data internationally.
12. Your Rights
Depending on applicable law, you may have rights including:
- Access: Request a copy of your personal data.
- Correction: ask us to correct inaccurate data.
- Deletion: Request deletion of your personal data (subject to legal exceptions).
- Restriction/Objection: request limited processing or object to certain processing.
- Portability: Request your data in a structured format.
- Withdraw consent at any time (where processing is based on consent).
To exercise these rights or make a data request, contact: himanshu291294@gmail.com. We will respond within the timelines required by applicable law. Under India’s DPDP framework, data principals have specific rights and the act emphasizes notice and transparency — follow guidance to implement formal request handling.
13. Recruitment / Applicant Data (Job Applications)
If you apply for jobs or submit a resume through the Site, we and the hiring organization may use your application data to evaluate your candidacy. By applying, you consent to our sharing of your application materials with the hiring organization(s). Recruitment-specific notices and retention periods are recommended; many companies publish a separate recruitment privacy notice explaining these details.
14. Advertising & Monetization (If Applicable)
If the Site uses advertising networks, sponsored listings, or affiliate links, we may share aggregated or personal data with ad partners. Users from jurisdictions with specific ad/privacy laws (e.g., CCPA for California residents) may have extra rights — if your Site targets or serves residents of such locations, add specific disclosures and opt-out mechanisms.

Important Notes & Next Steps (what I recommend you do now)
- Customize vendor names: Replace placeholder lines with the exact third-party services you use (hosting, analytics, payment/processing, ad networks). Those vendors’ privacy links should also be referenced on your Site.
- Cookie banner & preference center: Add a cookie consent banner and a simple preference center so users can opt in/out of tracking. Best-practice guidance listed in cookie/privacy articles is helpful.
- Recruitment notice: If you accept job applications, optionally publish a short recruitment privacy notice (applicant-specific) explaining retention, sharing with employers, and where applicants can request deletion. Example templates exist from recruitment technology providers.
- Legal review: This policy is a robust template but NOT legal advice. I strongly recommend a quick review by a lawyer — particularly to ensure compliance with India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDP Act) and any jurisdiction-specific laws that apply to your users.
