At Talentoop, we value your privacy and are fully committed to protecting the personal information you share with us. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, store, and safeguard your personal data when you visit or use our website and services. As an Indian-based job listing platform, we ensure compliance with India’s Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act 2023, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and other global data protection laws where applicable.
About Talentoop
Talentoop is a job listing and career discovery platform based in India. We connect job seekers with employers across various industries by providing job postings, resume uploads, company profiles, and career-related content. Our platform is designed to offer a secure and streamlined job-seeking experience. We prioritize transparency and accountability in how your personal information is collected, used, and stored.
Information We Collect
We collect various types of information depending on your interaction with our platform. When you create an account, you provide us with your full name, email address, phone number, and other professional details such as your resume, qualifications, experience, and job preferences. If you choose to enhance your profile, you may also upload a profile picture and include links to your social media accounts like LinkedIn.
In addition to the information you provide directly, we automatically collect data about your device and browsing activity. This includes your IP address, browser type, operating system, pages visited, time spent on each page, and session data collected through cookies and tracking technologies. These help us analyze how users interact with our platform and improve the user experience.
We may also receive information about you from third-party sources. This includes login authentication via Google or LinkedIn, employer feedback, and data provided through analytics and marketing tools that help us better understand user behavior.
How We Use Your Data
Your data is essential for us to deliver our services effectively. We use the information you provide to create and manage your account, recommend job listings based on your profile, and facilitate direct communication between you and potential employers. If you opt in, we also send you newsletters, job alerts, and promotional content tailored to your career interests.
Beyond operational use, we analyze aggregated data to improve the performance, design, and usability of our platform. This includes identifying usage patterns, monitoring system performance, and enhancing security features. In certain circumstances, we use your data to comply with legal requirements and assist law enforcement when mandated.
Sharing of Personal Data
We do not sell your personal information. Your data is shared only when necessary and under strict confidentiality agreements. For instance, when you apply for a job or make your profile visible, your information is shared with employers. We may also share your data with third-party service providers who assist us in operating the platform—this includes cloud storage providers, analytics firms, and email marketing platforms.
In cases where it is legally required, such as by court order or governmental regulation, we may be obligated to disclose your information to authorities. Any sharing of data is done securely and in accordance with applicable data protection laws.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Our platform uses cookies and similar technologies to enhance user experience. These technologies help us keep you logged in, remember your preferences, and provide personalized job recommendations. Cookies also allow us to understand user behavior through analytics and serve targeted advertisements.
You have the option to manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings or via the cookie banner on our website. Disabling cookies may impact certain functionalities, such as staying logged in or receiving job suggestions tailored to your interests.
Data Storage and Security
Talentoop stores your personal data on secure servers provided by reputable hosting partners like AWS and Google Cloud. We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your information, including SSL encryption for data in transit, firewalls to prevent unauthorized access, and access control protocols that restrict data visibility to authorized personnel only.
We conduct regular security assessments, monitor for vulnerabilities, and ensure our infrastructure is up to date with the latest security patches. Your data privacy is not just a legal obligation but a core part of our mission to be a trusted career platform.
Retention of Data
We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to provide our services or as mandated by law. For instance, user profiles are stored until you decide to delete your account. Job applications and related documents are typically kept for up to three years to facilitate application tracking and compliance.
Analytics and system logs are generally retained for 12 to 24 months to help us understand platform usage and resolve technical issues. Communication records via email are maintained for up to one year for support and recordkeeping purposes.
Your Rights and Choices
You have full control over your data. You can request access to the personal information we hold about you, ask for corrections to inaccurate details, or request deletion of your data from our systems. If you’ve previously given consent for marketing or data processing, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time.
Additionally, you may request a downloadable copy of your personal data or object to the way we process your data in certain circumstances. To exercise these rights, please contact us via email at privacy@talentoop.com. We are committed to responding to all data access and deletion requests within seven business days.
