Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Welcome to Architecture Jobs ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your personal information and your right to privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding that information.

2. Information We Collect

We collect minimal data necessary to provide our services and ensure the integrity of our job board analytics.

• Usage Data: We track visits to job postings to calculate view counts.
• Cookies: We use cookies to prevent duplicate view counts from the same device.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the collected data primarily to:

• Provide accurate analytics to companies posting jobs.
• Ensure that job view counts represent unique interest rather than repetitive refreshes.
• Maintain and improve the performance of our platform.

Specifically, we store a small file (cookie) on your device when you view a job. This allows us to know if you have already seen that specific job posting, ensuring that we report accurate "unique view" numbers to the hiring companies.

4. Third-Party Services & Hosting

Our application is deployed and hosted on Vercel. Vercel may collect anonymous usage data (like server logs) to maintain the stability and security of their infrastructure.

For more information on how Vercel handles data, please review the Vercel Privacy Policy.

5. Cookie Policy

We use a specific cookie named viewed_job_[ID]. This cookie is widely considered a "functional" or "analytics" cookie. It is stored for 1 year to prevent double-counting your views on job postings. You can choose to accept or decline this tracking via our Cookie Consent banner.

6. Your Rights

We value your privacy and your rights over your data. Even though we collect minimal data (anonymous view counts and consent cookies), you have the right to:

• Ask questions about what data we hold about you.
• Request the deletion or removal of your data.
• Withdraw your consent for cookies at any time.

We are committed to honoring your right of removal. If you wish to have any data associated with you removed, please contact us, and we will take immediate action.

7. Contact Us

If you have any questions or concerns about this Privacy Policy, or if you wish to exercise your rights regarding your data, please do not hesitate to contact us. We are here to help and ensure you feel safe using our platform.
