Data Privacy Policy
This Data Privacy Policy ("Policy") will help you understand how ILAHiring Technologies Pvt. Ltd. (collectively, "Company" or "we" or "us" or "our" or "ILAHiring") uses and protects the data that a user, employee, third party service provider, or individual ("Users" or "you" or "your") provides to us when you visit and use jobz.ilahiring.com ("Website") or the Jobz mobile application, or any software that we provide to you for access in your electronic devices, any use of our online platform, our materials, proprietary content, tools, software (collectively, these are called the "Services") and/or whose Personal Information is being processed for undertaking the business activities.
Jobz is a candidate and recruiter platform. Candidates upload a resume once and the platform parses it into a profile, scores fit against open roles, and gives recruiters shortlists instead of raw application queues. Both sides get in-app messaging once a shortlist lands, real-time status updates on every application, and control over what is shared.
Our mission is to make hiring feel like progress instead of paperwork, and to serve candidates and recruiters equally in that pursuit.
By using the Service(s) and/or being associated with our Company, you agree to the collection, storage, use, processing, and transfer of your information in accordance with this Policy. The information shared by you is divided into two categories: "Personal Information" (PI) and "Sensitive Personal Information" (SPI) as defined hereinafter.
We are committed to protecting the privacy and confidentiality of Personal Information and Sensitive Personal Information of our Users and third party service providers, and to ensuring that any Personal Information and Sensitive Personal Information supplied by or collected on behalf of our Users, or otherwise generated by our business activities, is collected and processed fairly and lawfully.
