1.Why does Hufr collect (and use) my data?

At Hufr, we aim to create the best possible recruitment experience across every medium. This involves knowing certain things about our applicants. For example, knowing which jobs you apply to helps us understand your interests. That information lets us select the types of jobs we show you in certain parts of the app or site. (This job selection process is still guided by our professional judgment, and doesn’t impact large portions of the app or site.)

1.What type of data is collected about me when I’m accessing Hufr?

Different types of data are collected based on the different Hufr services you use. There are effectively two types of data collection: direct and indirect.

Direct data collection means you are submitting data to us. For example, when you create an account with Hufr, you submit your email address to set up and personalize it.

Indirect data collection takes place passively as you interact with our site or apps. Our tracking technologies collect data about your behavior, like which jobs you apply to or how often you visit Hufr. Additionally, we collect data about applicants from sources like privately owned databases and social media platforms.

2.What does Hufr do with data it collects on me?

We use it to find the best information to you, like by recommending jobs that may be of interest. The specific data we use depends on the offering, and how you are accessing it. We also use your data to tailor your experience.

3.How are you keeping my data safe?

We have implemented organizational, technological and physical safeguards designed to keep our readers’ data secure internally. Hufr is dedicated to building, maintaining and upgrading the measures we take to protect your data.

4.Why am I given the option to use LinkedIn for log-in?

Our applicants have voiced a desire for our log-in process to be even simpler.

If you sign up via LinkedIn, they share limited data with us so we can create an account for you. We do not share any data about your reading behavior with LinkedIn when you sign up. To learn more, see our social login page.
