We may share portions of our log files, including IP addresses, for analytics purposes with third parties such as web analytics partners, application developers, and ad networks. If your IP address is shared, it may be used to estimate general location and other technographic data such as connection speed, whether you have visited the website from a shared location, and the type of device used to visit the website.

General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) Information

We may collect and use information about you if you are from the European Economic Area (EEA). In this section of our privacy policy, we explain exactly how and why these data are collected and how we protect these data from being duplicated or misused.

What is GDPR?

GDPR is an EU data protection law that governs how the data of EU citizens are protected by companies and gives EU citizens greater control over their personal data.

GDPR is relevant for any company operating globally and not just for EU-based companies and EU citizens. Our customers' data are important regardless of their location, which is why we have implemented GDPR controls as our baseline standard for all our operations worldwide.

What is personal data?

Any data that relates to an identifiable or identified person. GDPR covers a broad spectrum of information that could be used, alone or in combination with other information, to identify a person. Personal data goes beyond a person's name or email address. Some examples include financial information, political opinions, genetic data, biometric data, IP addresses, physical addresses, sexual orientation, and ethnic origin.

Data protection principles include requirements such as:

  • Personal data collected must be processed in a fair, legal, and transparent manner and should only be used in a way that a person would reasonably expect.
  • Personal data should only be collected to fulfill a specific purpose and should only be used for that purpose. Organizations must specify why they need the personal data when they collect it.
  • Personal data should be kept for no longer than necessary to fulfill its purpose.
  • People covered by GDPR have the right to access their personal data. They can also request a copy of their data and that their data be updated, deleted, restricted, or moved to another organization.

Why is GDPR important?

GDPR adds new requirements on how companies should protect the personal data they collect and process. It also raises the stakes for compliance by increasing enforcement and imposing greater fines for breaches. Beyond these facts, it is simply the right thing to do. At OnlineJobHunt.co.uk, we strongly believe that your privacy is very important, and we already have solid security and privacy practices that go beyond the requirements of this new regulation.

Data Subject Rights - Access, Portability, and Deletion

We are committed to helping our customers meet the data subject rights requirements of GDPR. OnlineJobHunt.co.uk processes or stores all personal data with fully vetted and compliant third-party providers. We store all conversations and personal data for up to 6 years unless your account is deleted. In this case, we dispose of all data in accordance with our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, but not beyond 60 days.

We are also required to provide information about the rights that California residents have under California law. You can exercise the following rights:
