Collection of Information

BidderJob collects personal information in three primary ways: information you actively provide to us, information we collect automatically as you use our Services, and information we obtain from external sources. This section explains each category in detail.

1.1 Information You Provide to Us We collect information you provide directly to us. This occurs when you:

• Create an account on BidderJob

• Fill out a form or complete your profile

• Submit or post content through the Services (posts, responses, series)

• Purchase a BidderJob membership

• Communicate with us via third-party platforms

• Request customer support

• Otherwise communicate with us

The types of personal information we may collect include: your name, display name, username, bio, email address, business information, avatar image, photos, posts, responses, and series you publish, and any other information you choose to provide.

In some cases, we may collect information about others — for example, if you purchase a BidderJob membership as a gift. We use this solely to fulfil your request and will not contact your gift recipients for unrelated purposes unless they separately consent.

💳 Payment Information — Important Note BidderJob does not directly collect or store your payment card details. All payment processing is handled by authorised third-party payment processors. Any information you provide to facilitate a payment is governed by the payment processor's own privacy policy. We strongly encourage you to review that policy before providing payment information.

1.2 Information We Collect Automatically When you use our Services, we automatically collect certain technical and behavioural information, including:

• Activity Information: Reading history, link sharing, user follows, post highlights, and claps.

• Transactional Information: Membership subscription details, purchase price, and transaction date when you purchase a membership.

• Device & Usage Information: Hardware model, operating system, mobile network, IP address, unique device identifiers, browser type, app version, access times, pages viewed, links clicked, and referring page.

• Cookies & Tracking: Cookies, web beacons (pixel tags / clear GIFs), and third-party analytics technologies. These collect IP address, browser, mobile network, pages viewed, time spent, and links clicked. See Section 6 (Your Choices) for cookie management options.

1.3 Information We Collect from Other Sources We may obtain information about you from third parties, including:

• Social networks (if you connect a social account to BidderJob)

• Accounting services providers

• Data analytics providers

If you create or log into your BidderJob account through a third-party platform (such as Apple, Facebook, Google, or Twitter/X), we receive certain information from that platform — such as your name, friend or follower lists, birthday, and profile picture — in accordance with that platform's authorisation procedures.

1.4 Information We Derive We may draw inferences about you based on the information we collect. For example, we may infer your approximate location from your IP address, or your reading preferences from your reading history on the platform.

Use of Information

BidderJob uses the information it collects to operate and improve the platform, personalise your experience, and communicate with you. Specifically, we use information to:

• Provide, maintain, and improve our Services, including publishing and distributing user-generated content

• Personalise the posts and content you see, and operate our metered paywall

• Create and maintain your BidderJob account

• Process transactions and send confirmations, receipts, and experience surveys

• Send technical notices, security alerts, and support and administrative messages

• Respond to your comments and questions and provide customer service

• Communicate with you about new content, products, services, and features, and other news we believe will interest you

• Monitor and analyse trends, usage, and activities in connection with our Services

• Detect, investigate, and prevent security incidents, fraud, and other illegal or deceptive activity

• Debug and repair errors in our Services

• Comply with our legal and financial obligations

• Carry out any other purpose described to you at the time the information was collected

📧 Opting Out of Communications You may opt out of receiving non-essential communications (such as digests, newsletters, and activity notifications) at any time by following the unsubscribe instructions in those communications or through your account Settings page. Note: even after opting out, we may still send you administrative emails related to your account or our ongoing business relationship.

Sharing of Information

BidderJob shares your personal information only in the specific circumstances described below. We do not sell your personal information.

• 👥 Other BidderJob Users: When you publish content, post comments, or send private notes, certain profile information is visible to others — including your name, photo, bio, followers, following, recent posts, claps, highlights, and responses.

• 🔧 Vendors & Service Providers: We share data with companies that help us operate BidderJob — web hosting, storage, infrastructure, analytics, payment processing, fraud prevention, customer service, communications, and marketing.

• ⚖️ Legal Requirements: We may disclose information if required by law or legal process, including lawful requests from public authorities. Where possible, we will notify you before disclosing so you can seek court intervention. We will object to legal requests we believe are improper.

• 🛡️ Protection of Rights: We may share data if we believe your actions violate our policies or the law, or if necessary to protect the rights, property, and safety of BidderJob, our users, or the public.

• 🏛️ Legal & Professional Advisors: We share data with our lawyers and other professional advisors as necessary to protect and manage our business interests.

• 🔄 Mergers & Acquisitions: We may share data in connection with a merger, sale of company assets, financing, or acquisition of BidderJob.

• 🏢 BidderJob Affiliates: Data is shared within the BidderJob corporate family — current and future parent companies, affiliates, subsidiaries, and companies under common ownership.

• ✅ With Your Consent: We share data with your consent or at your specific direction.

We may also share aggregated or de-identified information that cannot reasonably be used to identify you as an individual.

Third-Party Embeds

BidderJob does not host all of the content displayed on our Services. Users can post content that is hosted by a third party but displayed ("embedded") within BidderJob pages.

⚠️ How Third-Party Embeds Affect Your Privacy When you interact with an Embed — for example, watching a YouTube video embedded in a BidderJob post — the third-party host may receive information about your interaction just as if you had visited their site directly. This can include your IP address and details about how you engaged with the embedded content. BidderJob does not control what information third parties collect through Embeds, or what they do with it. This Privacy Policy does NOT apply to Embeds. The privacy policy of the third party hosting the Embed governs any data collected through it. We recommend reviewing the relevant third-party privacy policy before interacting with any Embed.

Transfer of Information to the United States and Other Countries

BidderJob is headquartered in the United States. We have operations and service providers located in the United States and in other countries around the world. As a result, your personal information may be transferred to, stored in, or accessed from jurisdictions that may not offer the same level of data protection as your home jurisdiction.

For example, we transfer personal data to Amazon Web Services (AWS), which processes information for us in data centres across the globe. We take steps to ensure that your personal information receives an adequate level of protection wherever it is processed, including through contractual data protection clauses where required by applicable law.

🌍 International Users — Your Rights If you are located in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, Section 8 of this Policy describes your specific rights and the legal bases on which BidderJob processes your personal data. California residents should refer to Section 7 for CCPA-specific rights and disclosures.
