JobPost ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting the privacy of all individuals who use our platform. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and disclose personal information when you access or use JobPost's job board services, including our website, mobile experience, and related tools. By using our platform, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

We collect information you provide directly to us when you create an account, submit a job application, post a job listing, or communicate through our platform. This includes your name, email address, phone number, resume or CV, employment history, educational background, and any other information you choose to provide. We also collect information automatically when you use our services, such as IP address, browser type, device identifiers, pages visited, and time spent on the platform.

We use the information we collect to provide, maintain, and improve our services; match job seekers with relevant job opportunities; enable employers to review and manage applications; send you notifications, updates, and service-related communications; verify your identity and prevent fraud; comply with applicable legal obligations in the UAE and GCC region; and personalise your experience on the platform based on your preferences and activity.

We do not sell your personal data to third parties. We share your information only in the following circumstances: with employers when you submit a job application; with trusted service providers who assist us in operating our platform under strict confidentiality agreements; when required by applicable law, regulation, or lawful government request; and to protect the rights, safety, or property of JobPost, our users, or the public.

Some information you provide may be considered sensitive under applicable data protection laws. Please be mindful when sharing the following on your profile or application:

• National ID or passport number
• Nationality or citizenship status
• Religion or religious affiliation
• Health or medical information
• Gender or marital status
• Financial information beyond salary expectations

You are not required to share sensitive information to use our platform. We recommend sharing only what is necessary for your job search or hiring process.

We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you with our services. If you delete your account, we will remove your personal data within 30 days, except where retention is required by applicable law or legitimate business purposes such as resolving disputes or enforcing our agreements.

We implement industry-standard technical and organisational measures to protect your personal information against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These include encryption of data in transit and at rest, access controls, and regular security assessments. However, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your experience on our platform. Cookies help us remember your preferences, understand how you use our services, and deliver relevant content. You can manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of our platform.

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have the right to access the personal data we hold about you; request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information; request deletion of your personal data; withdraw consent where processing is based on consent; and lodge a complaint with the relevant data protection authority.

Our services are intended for individuals who are at least 18 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 18. If we become aware that a child under 18 has provided us with personal data, we will take steps to delete that information promptly.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, legal requirements, or platform features. When we make material changes, we will notify you by updating the date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, through email or an in-platform notification. Your continued use of JobPost after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
