Job Jack Privacy Policy: Your Privacy, Your Control

Welcome to Job Jack! We understand how important your personal information is, and we are committed to keeping it safe. This Privacy Policy is here to explain what data we collect, why we collect it, and how you can control your information when you use our website (https://thejobjack.com).

We believe in transparency, so take a few minutes to go through this policy. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out—we’re happy to help!

1. Who We Are

Job Jack is the team behind this website, and we take your privacy seriously. Our goal is to create a secure space for you to explore, engage, and interact without worrying about your personal data being misused.

If you ever have concerns about your privacy, don’t hesitate to contact us!

2. What Information We Collect and Why

We only collect essential data to make your experience better. Here’s what we gather and why:

Comments

When you leave a comment, we collect:

  • The information you provide in the comment form.
  • Your IP address and browser details (to prevent spam and maintain site security).

If you use Gravatar (a service that displays your profile picture), an anonymous code generated from your email address may be shared with them. You can read Gravatar’s privacy policy on their website. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture will be visible to the public.

Media Uploads

If you upload images to our site, make sure they don’t contain location data (EXIF GPS). Otherwise, other users could download your images and extract that information.

Cookies: Making Your Experience Smoother

Cookies are small files that help websites remember your preferences. Here’s how they work on Job Jack:

  • Commenting? You can choose to save your name, email, and website in cookies, so you don’t have to re-enter them next time. These cookies last for one year.
  • Visiting our login page? A temporary cookie checks if your browser accepts cookies. It disappears when you close your browser.
  • Logging in? We use cookies to remember your login details and display preferences.
  • Login cookies last two days.
  • Screen preferences last one year.
  • Choosing “Remember Me” extends your session to two weeks.
  • Logging out removes these cookies.
  • Editing or publishing an article? A cookie stores the post ID and expires in one day.

Want to control or delete cookies? You can manage them in your browser settings anytime.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Some pages on Job Jack may include videos, images, or articles from other websites. These external sites may track your data just as if you visited them directly. If you’re logged into their platform (like YouTube or Facebook), they may collect more information.

3. Do We Share Your Data?

No. We never sell or share your personal data for marketing purposes.

The only exception is security-related cases—for example, if you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email as a security measure.

4. How Long Do We Keep Your Data?

We only keep your data for as long as necessary. Here’s what happens to different types of information:

  • Comments: Your comment and its metadata are stored indefinitely. This helps us approve future comments automatically instead of holding them for review.
  • User Accounts: If you register on our site, we store the personal information in your user profile. You can view, edit, or delete your data anytime—except for your username. Our administrators can also manage user profiles.

5. Your Rights: Control Over Your Data

If you’ve created an account or left comments, you have rights over your data:

  • Want a copy of your data? You can request an exported file of the personal data we have on you.
  • Want to delete your data? You can ask us to remove your personal information—except for any data we must keep for legal, security, or administrative reasons.

To make a request, just contact us, and we’ll assist you.

6. Where Does Your Data Go?

To protect our site from spam, visitor comments may be checked using an automated spam detection service. This helps us keep our platform safe and user-friendly.

7. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy occasionally to reflect changes in how we handle your data. If we make any updates, we’ll post them here. By continuing to use our website, you agree to the latest version of our policy.

8. Need Help? Contact Us!

If you have any questions or concerns about your privacy, don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re here to ensure that your data stays safe and that you feel comfortable using Job Jack.

Your privacy matters to us, and we’re committed to protecting it.
