Our commitment to maintaining your privacy
Our purpose is to help people live more fulfilling and productive working lives and help organisations succeed. We believe it’s important that you understand how your information is collected, used, protected and how you can manage it when you engage with us. Our Privacy Policy explains all of this in detail below.
By registering and creating an account with us, using our products and services, visiting our Platforms or simply engaging with us over the phone, via email, in person or by any other means, the terms contained in this Privacy Policy will apply to you.
Capitalised terms in this Privacy Policy are defined in section 17, unless otherwise stated.
We operate an online employment marketplace spanning the Asia-Pacific region with operations in Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia, Singapore, Philippines, Indonesia, Thailand and Hong Kong.
This Privacy Policy covers our businesses which operate under the following brands:
a. SEEK in Australia and New Zealand; b. JobStreet by SEEK (excluding JobStreet Express) in Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia and the Philippines; and c. JobsDB by SEEK in Thailand and Hong Kong.
As we operate in different markets across the Asia-Pacific region, aspects of this Privacy Policy address certain region-specific requirements under applicable Privacy Laws (please see section 18 for more information). It is important that you read this Privacy Policy in full to ensure you understand all aspects that apply to you.
This section sets out which legal entity in the SEEK Group is responsible for the Personal Information we collect from you and clarifies when we are a controller or a processor of your Personal Information.
If you are a Candidate, when you apply to a role advertised on our Platforms, we are Processing your job application (and any Personal Information included within that application) on behalf of the Advertiser to whom you are applying. For such Processing of Personal Information, we are the data processor and the Advertiser is the data controller.
In all other cases in which we collect your Personal Information, we do so as a data controller of such information. The relevant data controller (or the equivalent concept in your region) of your Personal Information is as follows:
a. For SEEK Users, SEEK Limited.
b. For JobStreet Users and/or JobsDB Users, the Designated Entity and SEEK Limited either as joint data controllers or as independent data controllers (depending on applicable Privacy Laws).
We collect different types of information about you depending on how you interact with us and use our products and services. For example:
To sign up as a Registered User on our Platforms (whether you are a Candidate or an Advertiser), you will need to provide basic information such as your name and email address.
If you are a Candidate, if you choose to create a Profile and/or if you are applying for a job, depending on the Advertiser, we may collect additional Personal Information about you on behalf of the Advertiser.
The main types of information (including Personal Information) we may collect includes but is not limited to:
a. If you are a Registered User:
Categories of Personal Information | Description |
---|---|
General Data |

Contact Data |

Background Data | For Candidates setting up a Profile, you may elect to disclose to us the following information: personal summary, work experience, educational background, language skills, other skills, professional qualifications, salary information, preferred job classifications and locations. |

This data is automatically collected through use of Cookies that is part of or placed on your browser or on your devices. (see section 11 for more information on how we manage Usage and Device Data) |
Third Party Data (including Personal Information of Related Person) | Name, email address, mobile phone number, other contact number, contact address, workplace, position, relationship with the Registered User (please ensure you have the consent of the relevant third party when disclosing their Personal Information to us). |

For example, if you contact us via phone, email or online. c. If you are a Young User: For Young Users who are under the minimum age provided for under applicable Privacy Laws, you represent and warrant that your parent or legal guardian has been informed of and agreed to this Privacy Policy. Where legally required, you are responsible for obtaining valid consent from your parent or legal guardian before providing us with your Personal Information (Parental Consent). We may ask you to provide us with evidence of the Parental Consent and we reserve the right to delete any Personal Information collected from you if we cannot verify that you have the necessary consent to provide us with your Personal Information and/or use our Platforms. We will not be held liable or responsible where you have failed to obtain Parental Consent. d. Other categories of Personal Information: We may also collect other Personal Information that you provide through your engagement with us, for example, in connection with surveys or promotions.
In most cases, we do not need to collect your Sensitive Information when you engage with us. You should not disclose any Sensitive Information to us which is not necessary or relevant to disclose. Candidates should be especially mindful of this during a job application process.
However, there may be some situations where we do collect and handle your Sensitive Information. For example, a Candidate may decide to provide an Advertiser with specific health information (e.g., vaccination status information) when completing a job application. This information will be collected by us on behalf of the Advertiser.
We will only collect Sensitive Information where: a. you consent to us collecting and processing your Sensitive Information by voluntarily including such information within documents and other information provided by you to an Advertiser as part of a job application process or where you voluntarily include such information within your Profile; b. you have provided your explicit consent to SEEK Pass (our third party verification provider) to share your Sensitive Information with us; or c. there is another legal basis permitting us to collect such information.
We collect your Personal Information in a few different ways. a. Directly from you We collect your Personal Information directly from you (including but not limited to) when you register and create an account with us, use any of our products and services (including when you communicate with us) or simply visit our Platforms.

You can choose not to share your Personal Information with us. However, if you choose not to provide us with the necessary Personal Information, we may not be able to provide you with some or all of our products or services.
We also require your Personal Information to meet our legal obligations. Where the legal basis for the Processing of your Personal Information is to comply with our legal obligations, a failure by you to provide us with certain Personal Information may cause us and/or you to be in breach of these legal obligations.
We take reasonable steps to ensure the security of our systems and to protect your Personal Information from misuse, interference and loss as well as unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. Any Personal Information which we hold is stored on secure servers and protected in controlled facilities.
We follow accepted industry standards to protect your Personal Information. However, no method of transmission over the internet, or method of electronic storage, is guaranteed to always be secure. Third parties with whom we share your Personal Information (including Advertisers) are asked by us to comply with all relevant obligations relating to the use and disclosure of Personal Information that are outlined in applicable Privacy Laws and any other relevant laws. Where you are asked by a third party to provide your information directly to them (for example, where you apply for a job via an Advertiser’s career’s platform), the use of your information by these third parties will be governed by their own privacy policies and is not our responsibility or within our control.
You can also play an important role in keeping your Personal Information secure, by maintaining the confidentiality of any password and accounts used on the Platforms. Please notify us immediately if you become aware of any unauthorised use of, or breach of security relating to, your account.
a. IP Addresses
Our web servers gather your Internet Protocol (IP) address to assist with the diagnosis of problems or support issues with our services, and to monitor the use of our Platforms, including the monitoring of the location of our Users.
b. Cookies
We use Cookies to provide Users with a better browsing experience. These Cookies collect details such as preferences and click activity for measurement and for features such as remembering your details for ‘Auto Login’ (provided you have chosen this option) and remembering your search criteria for the ‘My Last Search’ function. We use this information for a variety of purposes, including to customise and improve your experience of our services (e.g. by remembering your details if you have selected the ‘Auto Login’ option on one of our apps), to improve website performance, to analyse, develop and test our services and new functionalities, to make business decisions, aiding in error reporting, to assist with online payments, and to report to our advertisers and business Partners on results achieved through our services.
This information may be received from or shared with any entity within the SEEK Group and our Service Providers and Partners. This is done for the purpose of providing you with improved products and services.
We also use Cookies to tailor display advertisements from any entity within the SEEK Group, our Partners and Advertisers that appear on our Platforms, Related Platforms or other third party websites and apps (Advertising Locations) to your interests, actions and behaviour on those Advertising Locations (which may be collected through the use of Cookies on those Advertising Locations), your Profile and/or information provided as a user on the Advertising Locations. Display advertisements may be targeted to Candidates, Advertisers, or other types of visitors to those Advertising Locations.
Our Partners and Service Providers may place Cookies on some of the pages Users visit on the Platforms. These Cookies are designed to collect non-personal information to analyse Users’ interests and searches on our Platforms to help deliver more relevant display advertisements when Users visit our Platforms and other websites. The non-personal information collected by these Cookies may be shared with other third parties for purpose of managing and targeting display advertisements and for market research analysis.
You can limit the use of your information for purposes of targeted display advertising by updating your browser settings to block Cookies or by updating the display advertising settings in the system settings of your mobile device.
If you do not wish to have Cookies active while you browse our Platforms, you may “opt out” by modifying the privacy options in your browser. However, doing so will prevent access to some areas of the Platforms and limit your use of some of our products and services.
c. Our Apps
In addition to the above, where Users access our mobile applications (Our Apps) we use third party software development kits (SDK’s) and services which collect information relating to your use of Our Apps, including tracking of app installs and re-engagement. This information is used to tailor and measure display advertisements to install and/or use Our Apps which appear on third party sites/apps and are targeted towards Users’ usage preferences.
If you want to opt-out from the collection and usage of information for display advertisement targeting you can do so by disabling tracking permission for the app (Settings > Privacy > Tracking) on your iOS version 14.5+ device, by enabling “Limit Ad Tracking” (Settings > Privacy > Tracking) on your iOS device older than version 14.5 or by enabling the “Opting out of interest-based ads” option (Settings > Privacy > Tracking) on your Android device.
d. Third Party Measurement
To better understand our Users, we utilise third party Service Providers to measure and assess our Platforms’ traffic. A Cookie is used to collect the following information on the usage of our Platforms:
The number of page views (or page impressions) that occur on the Platforms;
The number of unique visitors to the Platforms;
How long these unique visitors (on average) spend on the Platforms when they do visit; and
Common entry and exit points into the Platforms
For Unregistered Users of our Platforms, this aggregated information is collated and provided to us to assist in analysing the usage of our Platforms. For Registered Users, this information is connected across different sessions on various devices to our Platforms to provide a more accurate total of the number of users prior to aggregation. This data is also accessible by media organisations and research companies, for the purpose of conducting industry comparisons with other organisations.
We retain your Personal Information for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected and retained as set out in this Privacy Policy or until such time as you request us to delete your Personal Information, after which we will take reasonable steps to delete your Personal Information (if required under applicable Privacy Laws).
If you have applied to a job advertisement on our Platforms and therefore provided your Personal Information to Advertisers, you will need to contact those Advertisers directly to request that your information be deleted from the Advertiser’s systems.

Where information is held in testing environments, this information is held in closed and secure environments and the information is only used for the purpose of internal software testing.
