1. Introduction
Welcome to ProPathJobs.com (“we”, “us”, “our”). We are committed to protecting and respecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your personal data when you visit or use our job-listing website at https://propathjobs.com/ (“the Site”).
By using the Site, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
2. Information We Collect
We may collect and process the following types of personal data:
- Registration / Application Data: When you register on the Site, create a profile, apply for a job, upload a résumé/CV, you may provide your name, email address, phone number, postal address, work history, education details, professional certifications, skills, and other career-related information.
- Employer / Recruiter Data: If you are an employer or recruiter posting job vacancies, we may collect company name, contact person, email, phone number, company address, job-listing details.
- Usage & Technical Data: We automatically collect certain information when you visit the Site, including your IP address, browser type, operating system, referral URL, pages visited, date/time stamps, and browsing behaviour (for example which job adverts you view).
- Cookies & Tracking Technologies: We use cookies and similar technologies to recognise you, remember your preferences, and track site usage.
- Third-Party Data: We may obtain information about you from third-parties (for example publicly available sources or job-advertising partners) and merge it with data we hold.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use personal data for the following purposes:
- To provide you with access to the Site and the services offered (job-search, applications, job-listing posting).
- To process your job applications, communicate with you regarding opportunities, and match your profile with relevant jobs.
- To enable employers/recruiters to review applicant profiles and manage job postings.
- To send you administrative communications (for example account confirmation, updates to terms/policies, notifications).
- To personalise your experience on the Site (for example showing job suggestions, remembering your preferences).
- To monitor and analyze usage of the Site, improve our services, and maintain security and integrity.
- To detect, prevent and respond to fraud, misuse or other harmful activity.
- Where permitted by law, to send you marketing or promotional communications (you will have the right to opt-out).
4. Legal Basis for Processing
Depending on the jurisdiction and the nature of processing, our legal basis may include:
- Processing is necessary for the performance of our contract with you (e.g., providing job-matching services).
- Processing is required for compliance with our legal obligations.
- Processing is in our legitimate interests (for example improving the Site, ensuring security, marketing) and does not override your rights.
- Where required, we will ask for your consent (for example for certain cookies or marketing communications) and you may withdraw that consent.
5. Disclosure of Your Information
We may share your personal data with:
- Employers/recruiters who have job postings on the Site, so that they can review your profile and contact you.
- Service providers and vendors who perform functions on our behalf (for example hosting, data analytics, email communications). These parties will process your data only as instructed by us and under confidentiality obligations.
- Legal or regulatory authorities, if required by law or to respond to lawful requests (such as court orders).
- In the event of a merger, acquisition, reorganisation, or sale of all or part of our business, your data may be transferred to the acquiring entity (subject to confidentiality commitments).
- Aggregated or anonymised data: We may share aggregated, non-identifiable information (for example usage statistics) for analytics or reporting purposes.
6. International Transfers
Because we may operate globally, your data may be transferred to and processed in countries outside of your residence. We will take steps to ensure appropriate safeguards are in place (for example standard contractual clauses, where applicable) to protect your privacy rights.
7. Data Retention
We will retain your personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for (including for satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements). When data is no longer required, we will delete or anonymise it.
If you have registered a profile but become inactive, we may retain certain data for internal archival purposes or in case you wish to re-activate your account, but always for a no-longer-than-needed period.
8. Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the following rights regarding your personal data:
- The right to access the personal data we hold about you.
- The right to correct or update any inaccurate or incomplete data.
- The right to erase or anonymise your personal data (“right to be forgotten”) subject to legal or contractual retention obligations.
- The right to restrict or object to our processing of your data (for example for direct marketing).
- The right to receive a copy of your data in a structured, machine-readable format (data portability) where applicable.
- The right to withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent.
- The right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority if you believe our processing of your data violates applicable law.

These measures include encryption, access controls, regular audits, and secure storage. However, no method of transmission or electronic storage is completely secure—while we strive to protect your data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
