Privacy & CV Data

SEM Solutions MEA LLC operates SEM Jobs Finder and is responsible for personal information processed through this service. We collect and use information needed to provide accounts, job matching, CV tools, interview preparation, subscriptions, security and customer support.

CV privacy

Your CV is private by default. It may be used to provide services you request, such as job matching, CV optimization and interview preparation. Your CV is shared with recruiters only through the Hire Me feature, as described below.

CV sharing and Hire Me consent

When you create a candidate account and accept the Terms & Conditions and this Privacy Policy, you confirm: “I authorize SEM Jobs Finder to activate my Hire Me profile and make my CV visible to recruiters.”

This does not activate Hire Me automatically, and uploading a CV does not either. Hire Me is activated manually, by you or by SEM Admin, once the required Hire Me information is complete. You can deactivate Hire Me at any time; doing so removes your profile from recruiter discovery immediately.

When Hire Me is active, SEM Jobs Finder may initially present an anonymized career profile. Access to additional candidate information is subject to the permissions and controls provided through the service.

Your controls

Account privacy controls are designed to include recruiter-discovery permission, CV deletion, account/data deletion, data access/export and consent history. We apply retention, access-control and security measures appropriate to the service.

Marketing communications and consent

We may use your email address, and your mobile number where you have agreed, to send marketing emails, promotional offers, job alerts, and marketing messages through WhatsApp and SMS. Where the law of your country allows it, new candidate accounts are subscribed to marketing emails by default when the profile is completed; where the law requires prior consent we wait until you subscribe. WhatsApp and SMS marketing are never switched on for you automatically: they need your own separate Subscribe under My Account → Marketing preferences. Accepting the Terms & Conditions and this Privacy Policy is not treated as consent to WhatsApp or SMS marketing.

We keep a record of each subscription and withdrawal (date and time, channel, wording shown, and where available the IP address) as evidence of your consent. You can withdraw consent or unsubscribe at any time under My Account → Marketing preferences, using the unsubscribe link in a marketing email, or by writing to info@semsolutions.me. Withdrawal applies from that moment and does not affect messages lawfully sent before it. Service messages about your account, security, billing and subscription are not marketing and are not affected.
