Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

PlaceHire ("we", "us", "our") operates a campus placement platform that connects students, colleges, and companies. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have when you use our website, dashboards, and related services (collectively, the "Platform").

2. Information We Collect

• Account information: name, email address, phone number, password, and role (student, college, company, or recruiter).
• Profile and academic data: resumes, transcripts, skills, certifications, and GitHub/LinkedIn links you choose to submit.
• Placement activity: job applications, interview schedules, offers, and communications made through the Platform.
• Usage data: log files, device information, IP address, and analytics collected automatically when you use the Platform.

3. How We Use Your Information

• To operate placement drives, match candidates with opportunities, and generate AI-based profile scores.
• To verify identity and academic credentials on behalf of colleges and companies.
• To communicate updates, interview invitations, and account notifications.
• To maintain platform security, prevent fraud, and comply with legal obligations.

4. Sharing of Information

We share your information only as needed to provide the Platform: with the college you are affiliated with, with companies you apply to or who invite you to a drive, and with service providers who help us operate the Platform (such as hosting and email delivery). We do not sell your personal data.

5. Data Retention

We retain account and placement data for as long as your account is active or as needed to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, including legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.
