Privacy Policy
Last updated: May 2026
1. Information We Collect
We collect essential information you provide directly (such as your name and email address) when creating an account or using our contact forms. We also automatically collect standard web infrastructure data (IP addresses, browser types, session durations, and interaction metrics) to ensure platform stability, security, and analytical performance.
2. How We Use and Protect Your Information
We utilize your information strictly to: (a) provide and maintain functional service matching your profile to IT jobs, (b) send transactional and critical security notifications via email, (c) respond to your support requests, and (d) actively detect and prevent fraudulent account activity. We employ modern hashing algorithms (Bcrypt) for passwords and utilize standard Laravel encryption paradigms to protect data in transit.
3. No Sale of Personal Data & Third-Party Limitations
HireIT unequivocally does not sell, trade, or monetize your personally identifiable information to external third parties. However, please be aware that as a job aggregator, our platform contains extensive outgoing links to third-party portals (such as LinkedIn, Naukri, or corporate applicant tracking systems). When you click an external link, you leave our jurisdiction. We hold absolutely no liability for the tracking, privacy policies, or data compliance of those external domains.
4. Third Party API Disclosures
The platform may utilize third-party Artificial Intelligence APIs (such as Google Gemini) to process job descriptions or generate resume summaries. Any data processed by external AI is subject to the privacy policies of those specific API providers. We take care not to transmit identifying user info alongside generic prompts unless explicitly requested by the user flow.
5. Cookies & Session Management
We utilize encrypted, HttpOnly session cookies purely for active authentication and fundamental site functionality. By using our application, you consent to this essential cookie usage required to keep you logged in securely.
6. Security Acknowledgment & Disclaimer
While we implement robust, industry-standard security measures (including CSRF tokens, database request binding, and restricted admin access), no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. By continuing to use this service, you acknowledge and accept that HireIT assumes no liability for unintended data breaches or unauthorized third-party access resulting from factors beyond our direct control.
7. Right to Deletion & Retention Practices
Your account data is retained only as long as necessary to provide the service. You harbor the fundamental right to request the complete deletion of your account and associated records from our active databases at any time by contacting support.
