Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how PocketJobs collects, uses, and protects information when you use our website and services.

We may collect the following categories of information when you use the Platform:

• Information you provide directly (e.g. registration details).
• Information generated through your use of the Platform (e.g. quiz attempts, saved jobs).
• Technical information collected automatically (see "Usage and Device Information" below).

When you register as a Student or Employer, we collect details such as your name, email address, phone number, and (for Employers) company information, in order to create and manage your account.

When you apply to a job, save a listing, or track an exam, we store the related application data (e.g. which jobs you applied to, your application status) so that both Students and Employers can manage the process on the Platform.

We may automatically collect certain technical information, including:

• Device and browser type.
• Pages visited and features used.
• Approximate location (derived from IP address, where applicable).

This information helps us maintain and improve the Platform.

How We Use Cookies

PocketJobs uses cookies and similar technologies to keep you signed in, remember your preferences, and understand how the Platform is used. You can control cookies through your browser settings; disabling certain cookies may affect Platform functionality.

Advertising Cookies

We may allow trusted third-party advertising and analytics partners (such as Google) to use cookies or similar technologies on the Platform to serve ads and measure their performance. These partners may collect information about your visits to this and other websites to help provide advertising relevant to your interests. You can manage or opt out of certain advertising cookies through your browser settings or, where available, the relevant provider's own preference tools (for example, Google's Ads Settings).

We use the information we collect to:

1. Provide, operate, and maintain the Platform.
2. Personalize job recommendations and study content.
3. Send notifications and updates you have opted into.
4. Improve Platform performance and security.

We may use your contact information to send job alerts, exam reminders, application status updates, and account-related communications. You can manage these preferences from your account settings.

We may use trusted third-party services (for example, payment processing and authentication providers) to operate the Platform. These providers only receive the information necessary to perform their specific function.

We apply reasonable technical and organizational measures to help protect your information. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

We retain account and activity information for as long as your account remains active, or as needed to provide the Platform's services, comply with legal obligations, and resolve disputes.

Subject to applicable law, you may have the right to:

• Access the personal information we hold about you.
• Request correction of inaccurate information.
• Request deletion of your account and associated data.

You can exercise most of these rights directly from your account settings, or by contacting us.

PocketJobs is intended for users who are at least 16 years old, or who are using the Platform with parental/guardian consent. We do not knowingly collect personal information from young children.

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. We encourage you to review this page from time to time.
