Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 1, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how jobs.kn collects, uses, stores, shares, and protects information when you use jobs.kn, including our website, accounts, job listings, applications, employer tools, support tools, reports, and related services.

jobs.kn is operated by 869 DOT DESIGN, registered in the Federation of Saint Christopher (St. Kitts) and Nevis under License Number L202624217. In this Privacy Policy, "jobs.kn", "the Platform", "we", "our", and "us" refer to jobs.kn and its operator.

jobs.kn is a job-listing, application, communications, support, and employer visibility platform. Employers remain separate parties responsible for reviewing applications, communicating with applicants, making hiring decisions, and complying with laws that apply to their own hiring process.

jobs.kn is not an employer, recruitment agency, staffing firm, placement service, labour broker, or recruiter of record.

By using jobs.kn, you acknowledge that your information will be handled as described in this Privacy Policy.

3. Platform Role and Employer Responsibility

jobs.kn provides technology tools for job listings, applications, communications, support, verification, and moderation.

Employers are separate parties. They are responsible for:

• the jobs they post;
• the accuracy of job information;
• reviewing applications;
• communicating with applicants;
• making hiring decisions;
• handling candidate information they receive;
• complying with employment, privacy, immigration, anti-discrimination, tax, licensing, and workplace laws.

jobs.kn does not make hiring decisions and does not guarantee interviews, offers, employment, salaries, benefits, work permits, or application outcomes.

4. Quick Apply and Candidate-Initiated Applications

When you use Quick Apply or another jobs.kn application tool, you choose to submit your application.

By submitting, you authorize jobs.kn to transmit your application data, profile details, application answers, documents, and related information to the named employer and its authorized hiring personnel.

The employer may download, review, store, or otherwise process your application information for its hiring process.

Employers are responsible for their own handling of candidate information after they receive it.

5. External Applications

Some jobs do not use jobs.kn application tools. Instead, they direct you to an employer careers page, employer application system, or other external application destination.

If you apply through an external website or third-party system:

• the information you enter there is handled by that employer or third party;
• their privacy policy and terms may apply;
• jobs.kn does not control that external website or system;
• jobs.kn is not responsible for the external system's security, availability, privacy practices, decisions, or outcomes.

We may keep a record that you clicked or were directed to an external application page for support, security, operational recordkeeping, auditability, and abuse-prevention purposes. This may include the job, company, destination URL or host, signed-in account where applicable, session hash, IP address, user agent, referrer, route information, and timestamp.

6. Imported and External Listings

jobs.kn may display job listings from employers, public sources, employer career pages, employer-operated job portals, employer application systems, feeds, APIs, and other public job sources.

Imported or external listings may be copied, summarized, reformatted, categorized, linked, or updated for display.

These listings may become stale, incomplete, inaccurate, unavailable, or different from the employer's current listing.

jobs.kn does not guarantee:

• that an imported job remains available;
• that the employer is still accepting applications;
• that the information is complete or error-free;
• that salary, location, or job details are current;
• that an external application link will work;
• that an employer will respond.

Where possible, we may display labels, source information, last-updated information, external-application labels, or listing-status information.

7. How We Share Information

We share information as described below to provide, secure, support, and operate the Platform.

7.5 During Business Changes

If jobs.kn or its operator is involved in a merger, acquisition, restructuring, asset sale, financing, or similar transaction, information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to appropriate protections where applicable.

8. Employer Use of Candidate Information

Employers who receive candidate or applicant information through jobs.kn must use it only for genuine hiring consideration and job-related communications.

Employers must not:

10. Sensitive Information

Applications, resumes, messages, or support requests may contain sensitive information if users choose to include it.

This may include information about health, religion, political opinions, criminal records, immigration status, identity documents, or other sensitive personal details.

Please avoid submitting sensitive information unless it is necessary for the relevant application, support request, or legal purpose.

Where sensitive information is submitted, we process it only where necessary to provide the Platform, transmit applications, support users, investigate reports, comply with law, protect users, enforce our Terms, or where you have clearly chosen to include that information in an application, message, document, profile field, or support request.

No online service can guarantee complete security. You are responsible for keeping your account credentials secure and notifying us if you suspect unauthorized access.

14. Retention

We keep information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer period is required or permitted by law.

Because jobs.kn supports applications, employer records, safety reviews, fraud prevention, and business operations, different types of information may be kept for different periods.

14.3 Employer and Job Records

Employer account records, company records, job publication records, job edit records, application workflow records, verification records, and related operational records may be retained for business, audit, compliance, security, and dispute-resolution purposes.

14.5 Security Logs

Security and abuse logs may be retained for as long as reasonably necessary to protect the Platform, investigate abuse, prevent fraud, enforce our Terms, and maintain security.

Routine security logs are generally retained for a limited period, while records connected with abuse, fraud, blocked users, suspicious activity, legal issues, or platform safety may be retained longer where reasonably necessary.

Platform audit logs may be retained in immutable or restricted form to protect Platform integrity, support investigations, and maintain accountability.

16.1 Access and Correction Requests

Where applicable privacy law gives you the right to access or correct personal information, you may contact us at [email protected].

We may ask you to verify your identity and provide enough information to help us locate the relevant records.

We aim to respond to valid access or correction requests within any timeframe required by applicable law.

If we refuse or limit access or correction where permitted by law, we will explain the reason where required or appropriate.

Correction requests should identify the information you believe is incomplete, incorrect, misleading, excessive, or not up to date, and explain the correction requested.

16.2 Required and Optional Information

Some information is required to use core Platform features. For example, an email address is required to create an account, application information is required to submit an application, and employer details are required to create or verify an employer account.

Other information may be optional, such as profile summaries, additional skills, cover letters, saved-job notes, or optional employer profile details.

You may use the Platform only if you are at least eighteen (18) years old or the age of majority in your jurisdiction.

We do not knowingly collect information from children.

18. International Processing

jobs.kn serves St. Kitts and Nevis, but our service providers, hosting infrastructure, email systems, development tools, or other technical systems may process information in other countries.

By using the Platform, you understand that information may be processed or stored outside your country, subject to reasonable safeguards appropriate to the service.

The updated version will be posted on the Platform with a new "Last updated" date.
