1. Introduction

Welcome to Jobsite.world (“Jobsite.world,” “we,” “our,” or “us”).

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, store, and protect personal information when you access or use our website, applications, and related services (collectively, the “Platform”).

Jobsite.world is designed to help property owners, developers, contractors, construction professionals, and other users discover construction projects and connect with people interested in construction-related work.

This Privacy Policy applies to information collected through the Platform, including information provided when you create an account, establish a professional profile, publish a project, upload photos or videos, communicate with other users, or contact us.

By using the Platform, you acknowledge this Privacy Policy. Where consent is required by law, we will request consent separately.

2. Information We Collect

• Name or display name.
• Email address.
• Username and account identifier.
• Password credentials, or authentication information managed by a third-party sign-in provider.
• Profile photograph and other information you choose to provide.

When you post or interact with a construction project, we may collect:

• Project title and description.

• Project address, approximate location, or geographic coordinates.

D. Communications and User Interactions

If the Platform supports messaging, inquiries, comments, or other communication features, we may collect the information you submit through those features, including:

• Messages and inquiries.
• Comments and responses.
• Project interest and contact requests.
• Information about interactions with other users.
• Reports, complaints, and customer support communications.

Please do not use the Platform to exchange sensitive information unless the feature is specifically designed to handle it securely.

E. Photos, Videos, and Uploaded Files

We may collect and process photos, videos, drawings, documents, and other files that you upload.

Depending on the file and your device settings, uploaded media may contain embedded metadata, such as the date a photograph was taken or location information.

We may process uploaded files to store, display, resize, compress, secure, and deliver them through the Platform.

Before uploading media, consider removing location metadata and confirming that the content does not disclose private property information, confidential documents, or information about individuals without authorization.

F. Device and Usage Information

When you access the Platform, we or our service providers may automatically collect certain technical information, where enabled, including:

• IP address.
• Browser type and version.
• Device type and operating system.
• Pages or features accessed.

We use this information to operate, troubleshoot, protect, and improve the Platform.

G. Cookies and Similar Technologies

We and our service providers may use cookies, local storage, and similar technologies to:

• Maintain login sessions.
• Remember user preferences.
• Support security and authentication.
• Understand Platform usage.
• Improve performance and reliability.
• Support analytics or other features, if enabled.

You may be able to control certain cookies through your browser settings or available consent tools. Disabling necessary technologies may prevent some features from functioning properly.

Where required by law, we will obtain consent before using nonessential cookies or similar technologies.

H. Location Information

Jobsite.world may process location information to display construction projects on a map and help users discover relevant projects.

Location information may come from details you enter manually, project addresses, map coordinates, or device location permissions if a location-based feature is implemented and you authorize it.

We do not assume that you have authorized access to your device’s precise location simply by visiting the website.

You can control device location permissions through your browser or device settings. However, project locations you choose to publish may remain visible according to the project’s visibility settings.

3. How We Use Personal Information

1. Providing the Platform: Creating and managing accounts, displaying profiles, publishing projects, and enabling users to discover construction opportunities.

Jobsite.world does not sell personal information for monetary consideration.

Some privacy laws, including California law, define “sale” and “sharing” broadly. Certain disclosures to third parties for cross-context behavioral advertising may qualify as sharing even when no money changes hands.

We will honor applicable opt-out preference signals, such as Global Privacy Control, when legally required.

Retention periods depend on the type of information, how it is used, applicable legal obligations, and operational requirements.

If you delete your account or request deletion of personal information, we will take the steps required by applicable law. Certain information may be retained where legally permitted or required, including for security, fraud prevention, dispute resolution, and legal compliance.

Deleted information may remain temporarily in backup systems before being overwritten or deleted through ordinary retention processes.

9. Children’s Privacy

Jobsite.world is intended for individuals who are legally able to enter into agreements for their use of the Platform. It is not designed to collect personal information directly from children under 13.

We do not knowingly collect personal information online from children under 13 without legally required parental consent.

If you believe a child has provided personal information to us in violation of applicable law, please contact us. We will investigate and take appropriate steps, including deletion where required.

If a particular feature is directed toward children or otherwise triggers additional legal obligations, we will implement the required safeguards before offering that feature.

10. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, and disclosure.

Depending on the Platform’s implementation, these safeguards may include access controls, authentication protections, secure transmission, security monitoring, and restricted access to stored information.

No website, cloud service, or electronic transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

You are responsible for protecting your account credentials, using appropriate device security, and notifying us if you suspect unauthorized access to your account.

In the event of a data breach, we will comply with applicable notification and response requirements.

11. International Data Transfers

Jobsite.world and its service providers may process or store information in the United States or other countries where they or their service providers operate.

Data protection laws in those locations may differ from the laws where you live.

Where required, we will implement appropriate safeguards for international transfers of personal information.

12. Third-Party Services and External Links

The Platform may integrate with or link to third-party services, including authentication providers, map providers, hosting platforms, analytics tools, and external websites.

Those third parties may collect or process information under their own privacy policies and terms.

Jobsite.world does not control the independent privacy practices of third-party services.

Before using a third-party service or following an external link, we encourage you to review its applicable privacy policy.

13. Do Not Track and Privacy Signals

Some browsers offer Do Not Track settings or similar privacy signals.

Because there is no universally adopted standard governing every Do Not Track signal, our response may depend on applicable law and the technology involved.

You may be able to manage certain information through your account settings, depending on the features available.

You can also control certain browser cookies and device permissions through your browser or device settings.

If a particular option is not available directly through the Platform, contact us for assistance.

Removing information from the Platform does not necessarily remove copies previously downloaded, shared, indexed, or otherwise retained by other users or third parties.

15. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our services, technology, business practices, or legal obligations.

When we make material changes, we will take reasonable steps to notify users through the Platform, by email where appropriate, or by other legally required methods.

The updated policy will display a revised effective date.

Where required by law, we will obtain consent before making changes that require consent.
