1. Who we are and what this document covers
This Privacy Policy explains what personal data Fairplace collects, what we use it for, who we share it with, and what rights you have over it. It complements our Terms and Conditions and applies to candidates, companies/recruiters, and site visitors.
2. Data we collect
Account data: name, email, and password (encrypted) when you sign up.
Profile data (optional): location, skills, work experience, education, résumé PDF, and the text extracted from it — anything you choose to fill in.
Application data: when you apply to a job, we collect name, email, phone, city, résumé, and an optional message, even without a created account.
IP-based location: we use the ipinfo.io service to estimate city/country from your IP address, exclusively to suggest "jobs near you" on the homepage and, on your first visit to the site, to pre-select the display language. This lookup is not saved tied to your account — it's done on the fly on each visit, and only the chosen language (not the location) is saved in your browser.
Technical data: essential session (login) and language-preference cookies. We do not use third-party tracking cookies or advertising pixels.
3. What we use your data for
(a) Operating your account and authentication; (b) enabling job applications and sending them to the corresponding companies; (c) generating email job alerts based on your preferences; (d) displaying your public portfolio, if you enable that option; (e) processing your résumé with artificial intelligence tools to extract information and suggest profile autofill; (f) suggesting relevant jobs based on your approximate location; (g) complying with legal obligations and preventing fraud.
4. Who we share it with
We share your application data (including résumé) only with the company you applied to, by email. We do not sell personal data to third parties or share it with advertisers. We use the following providers strictly to operate the service, under confidentiality obligations:
- SolveRH — a recruitment management platform we sync application data to (name, email, phone, résumé), so partner companies using it can evaluate your application.
- ipinfo.io — IP-based geolocation, used on the fly and not tied to your account (see section 2).
- AI processing providers (for automatic résumé data extraction and profile suggestions) — receive résumé content processed at the time of submission.
- Hosting provider and email delivery provider — technical infrastructure needed to run the site and send job alerts.
These providers may be located outside Brazil; when they are, we require them to offer a level of data protection equivalent to that required by the LGPD.
5. Retention
We keep your account data while it remains active. Standalone application data (no account) is retained for as long as needed for the company to evaluate the application, plus a reasonable period afterward for support and fraud-prevention purposes. You can request deletion at any time (section 7).
6. Legal basis and international compliance
We process your data based on your consent (by accepting these documents), on the performance of the service you requested (application, alert, portfolio), and on our legitimate interest in operating and improving the platform. For users in Brazil, we follow the General Data Protection Law (LGPD, Law 13.709/2018). For users in the European Union/European Economic Area, we follow the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and we commit to tracking future EU regulatory updates applicable to this service as they take effect.
7. Your rights
You can, at any time: (a) access the data we hold about you; (b) correct inaccurate data directly in your profile; (c) delete your account and associated data, directly from the "My Profile" page under "Privacy & account" — deletion is immediate and cannot be undone; (d) download a portable copy of your data (JSON), also under "Privacy & account"; (e) withdraw your consent, which may limit features that depend on it. For other requests, use the contact channels available on the site.
8. Security
Passwords are stored hashed (never in plain text). We use encrypted connections (HTTPS) across the entire site. No system is 100% risk-free, and we commit to notifying you in the event of a security incident affecting your data, as required by law.
9. Minors
The service is intended for users 16 years or older, per our Terms. We do not knowingly collect data from users under 16.
10. Changes to this policy
We may update this Policy from time to time. Material changes will be communicated by email or an on-platform notice.
11. Contact
