This Privacy Policy explains how GetJobsNews (“we,” “us,” “our”), which operates the website at getjobsnews.co.in, handles information about visitors and readers. We are an independent editorial publication, and we aim to collect as little personal data as possible. This policy is written to be consistent with India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP Act) and, for readers in the European Union, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

Who we are and how to reach us

GetJobsNews is the data fiduciary/controller responsible for the personal data described here. If you have any question or request about your data, contact us at hello@getjobsnews.co.in.

What information we collect

  • Information you give us. If you email us, submit feedback, report an error, or pitch to write for us, we receive the information you choose to share — typically your name, email address, and the contents of your message.
  • Information collected automatically. Like most websites, our servers and analytics tools may record technical data such as your IP address (often truncated or anonymised), browser type, device information, pages visited, and referring pages. This helps us understand how the site is used and keep it secure.
  • Cookies and similar technologies. We use a limited set of cookies as described in our Cookie Policy.

We do not knowingly collect sensitive personal data, and we do not ask readers for financial account details — we are not a recruiter and never handle applications or payments for jobs.

Why we use your information

  • To respond to your messages and provide the information you request.
  • To operate, maintain, secure, and improve our website and content.
  • To understand aggregate readership through analytics.
  • To comply with legal obligations and to detect or prevent fraud and abuse.

Under the GDPR, our legal bases are your consent (for example, non-essential cookies), our legitimate interests in running and improving an editorial website, and compliance with legal obligations. Under the DPDP Act, we process personal data for lawful purposes based on your consent or as otherwise permitted by law.

How we share information

We do not sell your personal data. We may share limited data with trusted service providers who help us run the site — for example, hosting and analytics providers — who are bound to protect it and use it only on our instructions. We may also disclose information where required by law or to protect our rights and the safety of our readers.

Data retention

We keep personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes described here or as required by law. Correspondence is retained as long as needed to handle your query and for reasonable record-keeping; technical and analytics data is typically retained in aggregated or limited form.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you have rights over your personal data. Under the DPDP Act, these include the right to access, correct, and erase your data, to nominate another person to exercise your rights, and to grievance redressal. Under the GDPR, these include the rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection, and data portability, and the right to withdraw consent at any time. To exercise any right, email us at hello@getjobsnews.co.in. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the relevant Data Protection Board (India) or your local supervisory authority (EU).

Children

Our site is intended for a general adult audience. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us data, contact us and we will delete it.

Security

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against loss, misuse, and unauthorised access. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, but we work to safeguard the limited information we hold.

Third-party links

Our articles frequently link to official government and other external websites so you can verify information at the source. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites; please review their policies.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected on this page with a revised effective date. Your continued use of the site after an update means you accept the revised policy.
