Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how OnlineTesolJob.com ("we", "our", or "the platform") collects, uses, and protects your information. We keep it short. We keep it clear. If you have questions after reading, contact us.

1. Information We Collect

We collect different types of information depending on how you use our platform.

Job Listing Submissions

When an employer submits a job listing, we collect:

• Job details — title, salary, location, company name, and job description.
• Contact information — email address and application link (both optional). These are shown to applicants if provided.
• Phone number — including country code and phone number. This is collected so our team can communicate with the employer about their listing. It is never shown to applicants.
• Instant messaging account — the employer's preferred contact method (WeChat, WhatsApp, or Teams) and their account ID. This is used solely for platform-to-employer communication regarding listing management. It is never shown to applicants.

Contact Form Submissions

When you send us a message through our contact page, we collect:

• Your name and email address.
• Subject and message content.

Captcha Data

Our forms use a math-based captcha to prevent spam. The captcha generates a random arithmetic question in your browser. Your answer is checked locally. We do not store captcha answers or track captcha attempts.

Automatically Collected Data

Like most websites, we automatically collect:

• IP address — used for security and analytics.
• Browser type and version — used to ensure our site works correctly on your device.
• Pages visited and time spent on pages — used to improve our content.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use collected information for specific, limited purposes:

1. Displaying job listings — job details (title, salary, location, description) are published on our site for job seekers to browse.
2. Facilitating applications — if an employer provides a contact email or application link, we display these to job seekers who wish to apply.
3. Platform communication — we use the employer's phone number and instant messaging account to discuss listing status, corrections, or removals. We never share these with applicants.
4. Responding to inquiries — we use your name and email from the contact form to reply to your message.
5. Spam prevention — captcha verification ensures submissions come from real users.
6. Site improvement — anonymous usage data helps us understand what content is most useful and how to improve the platform.

3. Information Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. Here is who may see your data:

• Job seekers can see published job details and any contact email or application link the employer chose to provide.
• Service providers who help us operate the platform (hosting, analytics) may have access to data under strict confidentiality agreements. They cannot use your data for their own purposes.
• Legal requirements — we may disclose information if required by law, regulation, or legal process.

We will never share an employer's private phone number or instant messaging details with job seekers or any third party.

4. Cookies

Our site uses minimal cookies:

• Essential cookies — required for the site to function (e.g., session management, form submissions). These cannot be disabled without breaking site features.
• Analytics cookies — help us understand site traffic and usage patterns. These collect anonymous, aggregated data. They do not identify individual users.

We do not use advertising cookies or third-party tracking pixels. You can control cookie preferences through your browser settings.

5. Data Retention

We keep your information only as long as needed:

• Job listings remain active until they expire or are removed by the employer. We may retain archived copies for up to 12 months after removal for dispute resolution.
• Contact form messages are retained for up to 24 months so we can reference past conversations if you reach out again.
• Server logs containing IP addresses are automatically purged after 90 days.

You can request deletion of your data at any time (see Section 6).

6. Your Rights

You have the right to:

1. Access — request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
2. Correction — ask us to fix inaccurate or incomplete information.
3. Deletion — request that we remove your personal data, subject to legal obligations.
4. Portability — receive your data in a commonly used, machine-readable format.
5. Objection — object to certain types of data processing.

To exercise any of these rights, send us a message via our contact page. We will respond within 30 days.

If we become aware that we have collected data from a minor, we will delete it promptly. If you believe a child has submitted information to our platform, please contact us immediately.
