Important job listing notice

Some job listings on JobHunch may originate from third-party public sources and may be processed by AI-powered extraction systems. JobHunch does not guarantee job authenticity, employer legitimacy, job availability, or the accuracy of third-party information. Always verify employers independently before applying, interviewing, paying fees, or sharing sensitive personal information.

1. Information we collect

JobHunch may collect information you provide directly, information generated through your use of the platform, and technical information collected automatically. This may include your name, email address, mobile number if provided, account preferences, saved jobs, application tracking activity, employer portal information, messages, feedback, and support requests.

We may also collect technical data such as IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, referral URLs, approximate location derived from device or network signals, timestamps, and interaction events used to improve performance, security, and product quality.

2. Account data, saved jobs, and application tracking

When login/signup features are available, JobHunch may process account data to create and manage your profile, authenticate access, personalize your experience, save jobs, create alerts, and help you track applications across stages such as saved, applied, interviewing, rejected, or offer.

You are responsible for keeping your login credentials secure and for ensuring that the information you provide is accurate and current.

3. Job aggregation and AI-generated or extracted content

JobHunch is an AI-powered job aggregation and career platform. Some job listings may originate from third-party public sources, public company career pages, job boards, APIs, or other publicly available pages. Our systems may use scraping, APIs, and AI-powered extraction to organize job information into structured fields such as job title, company, location, work mode, salary, skills, description, and apply links.

AI-generated or AI-extracted content may occasionally be incomplete, inaccurate, outdated, duplicated, or formatted differently from the original source. JobHunch does not guarantee the authenticity, accuracy, availability, or legitimacy of any job listing. Users should independently verify employers, job details, application links, compensation, and hiring processes before applying or sharing personal information.

4. Employer data handling

Employers may directly post jobs on JobHunch through current or future employer portal features. Employer-provided data may include company name, contact details, job descriptions, application URLs, hiring preferences, billing or plan information if introduced, and communication history.

We may use employer data to publish and manage listings, prevent abuse, support applicants, improve matching and discovery, and operate hiring-related services. Employers should only submit information they are authorized to share.

5. Cookies and similar technologies

JobHunch may use cookies, local storage, pixels, tags, and similar technologies to remember preferences, maintain sessions, measure traffic, prevent abuse, understand product usage, improve search relevance, and support advertising or analytics features.

You can usually control cookies through your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect functionality such as login sessions, saved jobs, alerts, or analytics-based product improvements.

6. Analytics, tracking, and product improvement

We may use analytics and tracking tools to understand how users discover and use JobHunch, including page views, clicks, search patterns, performance metrics, referring pages, and conversion events. This helps us improve job discovery, platform reliability, user experience, and content quality.

Analytics data may be processed in aggregate or pseudonymous form where appropriate. We do not intentionally use analytics to collect sensitive personal information.

7. Third-party services and external links

JobHunch may integrate with third-party providers for hosting, analytics, authentication, email delivery, storage, AI processing, advertising, payment processing if introduced, and security. These providers may process data according to their own privacy policies and contractual obligations.

JobHunch pages may link to third-party websites, employer career pages, public job sources, application portals, blogs, or interview preparation resources. We are not responsible for the privacy practices, accuracy, security, or content of external websites. Review the privacy policy of any third-party site before submitting personal data.

8. Advertising and Google AdSense compatibility

JobHunch may display advertising in the future, including ads served by Google AdSense or other advertising partners. Advertising partners may use cookies, device identifiers, and similar technologies to serve, measure, and personalize ads based on visits to JobHunch and other websites, subject to user consent where required by law.

Users may be able to manage personalized advertising preferences through Google ad settings, browser controls, consent banners where available, and applicable privacy choices. We will aim to provide required notices and consent mechanisms when advertising features are enabled.

9. Data retention

We retain personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the platform, maintain accounts, operate saved jobs and application tracking, support employer services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, prevent fraud or abuse, and improve JobHunch.

Retention periods may vary by data type. For example, account data may be retained while an account is active, support messages may be kept for operational history, and analytics data may be stored in aggregate form for product analysis.

10. Your rights and choices

Depending on your location, including where GDPR-style privacy rights apply, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, object to, or receive a copy of certain personal data. You may also have the right to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.

To exercise privacy rights, contact us using the email placeholder below. We may need to verify your identity before responding. Some requests may be limited by legal, security, fraud-prevention, or operational requirements.

11. Security measures

We use reasonable technical and organizational safeguards designed to protect data from unauthorized access, misuse, loss, alteration, or disclosure. These may include access controls, secure hosting practices, encryption where appropriate, monitoring, backups, and limited access to operational systems.

No online service can guarantee complete security. Users should use strong passwords, keep account credentials confidential, and be cautious when following external job application links.

12. Children and sensitive information

JobHunch is not intended for children below the age required to use online services in their jurisdiction. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided personal data, contact us so we can review and take appropriate action.

Users should avoid submitting sensitive personal information unless it is specifically required for a legitimate support or account request.

13. Updates and contact

We may update this Privacy Policy as JobHunch evolves, including when we add login/signup, employer portal features, blogs, interview preparation content, saved jobs, application tracking, analytics, advertising, or other career resources. Updates will be posted on this page with an updated effective date.
