Privacy Policy & Data Protection

We use your data solely for the following transparent purposes:

Your resume and personal contact details are never sold to data brokers or advertising third parties. When applying via 1-click Easy Apply, your resume is disclosed solely to the hiring managers of that company.

Candidates can configure their profile visibility as Public (visible to verified employers in the candidate directory) or Confidential (only visible to companies you explicitly apply to).

SMECjobs utilizes enterprise-grade 256-bit SSL encryption, tokenized authentication sessions, hashed passwords, and isolated cloud storage for resumes. Access to applicant records is strictly protected by role-based access controls.

Regardless of your location, SMECjobs provides full control over your personal data:

• Access & Correction: Review and update your resume, profile, or application history from your dashboard at any time.
• Data Portability: Request an export of your application activity and uploaded resumes.
• Right to Deletion: Permanently delete your candidate profile and all associated files upon request.

We use strictly essential session cookies to keep you signed in securely, alongside anonymous performance analytics to ensure low latency and search speed. You may disable cookies in your browser settings, though active account sessions require cookies.
