Privacy Policy

Introduction

BookJobs Asia ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard information when you visit our website at bookjobs.asia (the "Site").

By using our Site, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

Information We Collect

Information You Provide

You do not need an account to browse job listings or follow external apply links to employer sites. If you choose to register, save jobs, maintain a profile, post a role (employers), join a waitlist, share interest in being interviewed, or contact us, we may collect information you submit, such as:

• Account registration: name, email address, password, and job-category preferences (job seekers); company and team details for employer accounts
• Profile and saved jobs: optional profile fields (including a résumé or CV if you upload one), saved job listings, and newsletter or digest preferences
• Employer listings: job descriptions, hiring contact details, and related posting information when invited employers use our tools
• Other requests: information in emails or forms (for example, post-a-job waitlist, career-spotlight interview interest, or support enquiries)

If you sign in with a social account, we receive basic profile information from that provider (such as your name and email) according to your settings with them.

Automatically Collected Information

When you visit our Site, we may automatically collect certain information, including:

• Usage Data: Information about how you interact with our Site, such as pages viewed, search queries, filters used, and click patterns
• Device Information: Browser type, operating system, IP address, and device identifiers
• Cookies and Similar Technologies: Session and preference cookies (see below) and data collected by our analytics provider

How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Provide, operate, and maintain our Site
• Enable account features such as saved jobs and employer listings, where applicable
• Send service and newsletter emails you request or that relate to your use of the Site
• Improve and personalize your experience
• Understand how users interact with our Site
• Analyze usage patterns and trends
• Detect and prevent technical issues or fraudulent activity

Legal Basis for Processing

We process your information based on our legitimate interests in providing and improving our services, analyzing Site usage, and maintaining security; on the performance of a contract when you create an account or use account features; and on your consent where required (for example, optional marketing emails). This includes:

• Ensuring the functionality and security of our Site
• Providing features you request, such as accounts and saved jobs
• Understanding how users interact with our platform to improve user experience
• Analyzing usage patterns to enhance our services

We balance these legitimate interests against your privacy rights and ensure that your fundamental rights and freedoms are not overridden.

Third-Party Services

Our Site uses third-party service providers for hosting, authentication, email, analytics, and security. We do not control these providers' privacy practices:

• Hosting and authentication — database hosting, optional file storage (for example, if you upload a résumé or CV to your profile), and user sign-in. Session cookies are set when you are signed in.
• Analytics — aggregate usage measurement (see Analytics below)
• Email — transactional and newsletter messages
• Social sign-in — when you choose to sign in with a third-party account
• CDN and security — content delivery and protection of the Site
• External links — job listings link to employer and third-party sites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites.

We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party sites or services you use.

Analytics

We use a third-party analytics service to understand how the Site is used in aggregate — for example, which pages are viewed and how visitors navigate. We use this information to improve the Site. We do not use analytics for cross-site advertising or to sell your personal information.

Our analytics provider may process technical and usage data such as page URL, referrer, browser type, and device type. If you are signed in, we may associate usage events with your account to understand product features — not for targeted advertising.

Opting out of analytics

You can limit analytics collection by adjusting your browser settings, using a browser extension that blocks analytics scripts, or contacting us at [email protected] for help. Opting out may not affect strictly necessary cookies needed for sign-in.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies where needed for the Site to work, to remember choices you make, and for analytics. We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.

• Strictly necessary: session cookies when you are signed in, so account features work
• Functional: preferences such as list or grid view for job listings
• Analytics: our analytics provider may use cookies or similar technologies to distinguish visits and measure usage (see Analytics above)

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Note that disabling strictly necessary cookies may affect sign-in and other account features.

Data Security

We implement reasonable security measures to protect information collected through our Site. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy, including operating your account, and meeting legal obligations. Automatically collected usage and analytics data is typically retained for up to 26 months before deletion or anonymization.

We may retain certain information for longer periods if required by law or necessary for legitimate business purposes, such as resolving disputes or enforcing our agreements.

Children's Privacy

Our Site is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have inadvertently collected such information, please contact us so we can delete it.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date.

We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes. Your continued use of the Site after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.

Sale or Sharing of Personal Information

We do not sell your personal information. We also do not share your personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising (also known as targeted advertising).

Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information, including:

• The right to access information we hold about you
• The right to request correction of inaccurate information
• The right to request deletion of your information
• The right to object to or restrict certain processing activities
• The right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising (we do not sell or share personal information for such advertising)

California residents may have additional rights under the CCPA/CPRA. Contact us at [email protected] to exercise any of these rights. We will respond within the time required by applicable law.
