Privacy Policy

Your privacy matters to us, and this policy explains — in plain language — what personal information Vibetown collects, why we collect it, how we use and protect it, and the choices you have. Vibetown is operated by Innolope LLC, and we've written this policy to be genuinely useful rather than a wall of legal boilerplate. If anything here is unclear, please reach out; we'd rather answer a question than leave you guessing.

1. Who's responsible for your data

The company responsible for your personal information (the “data controller,” in legal terms) is Innolope LLC, registered in Delaware with an address at Ste A, 8 The Green, Dover, DE 19901, Kent County, United States. If you ever want to know what we hold about you, correct it, or ask us to delete it, you can contact us at [email protected] and a real person will help you.

2. What we collect

We only collect what we need to run Vibetown well. The information we gather falls into a few natural groups:

• Information you give us. When you sign up and build a profile, you share things like your name, email address, and — depending on whether you're a candidate or a recruiter — details such as your skills, experience, CV, company information, and the vacancies you post.
• Content and messages. The applications, messages, and content you create on the platform, so we can deliver them to the right people and keep a record of your activity.
• Technical information. When you use Vibetown, we automatically receive some data from your device and browser — things like your IP address, browser type, pages you visit, and how you interact with the site — which helps us keep the service secure and working properly.
• Information from third parties. If you sign in through a provider like Google, or connect another service, we receive the limited information that provider shares with us to set up and secure your account.

3. Why we use your information

We use your data to provide and improve Vibetown, and never simply for its own sake. Concretely, that means we use it to create and manage your account; to match candidates with relevant vacancies and recruiters with relevant talent; to enable applications, messaging, and the other features that make the platform work; to process payments for paid features; to keep the service safe and prevent fraud and abuse; to understand how people use Vibetown so we can make it better; and to communicate with you about your account, important updates, and — only if you've agreed to it — occasional news. We rely on the legal grounds appropriate to each purpose: performing our contract with you, pursuing our legitimate interests in running and improving the service, meeting our legal obligations, and, where required, your consent.

4. How your information is shared

Vibetown is a marketplace, so some sharing is the whole point — but it always happens in ways you'd expect. When you're a candidate, the profile details you choose to make visible can be seen by recruiters using the platform; when you post a vacancy as a recruiter, it's shown to relevant candidates. Beyond that, we share personal information only with the service providers who help us operate Vibetown — for example hosting, analytics, email delivery, and payment processing — and only so they can perform those services for us under appropriate confidentiality obligations. We may also disclose information when the law requires it, to protect our rights or the safety of others, or as part of a business transfer such as a merger or acquisition. We do not sell your personal information, full stop.

5. Cookies and similar technologies

Like most websites, Vibetown uses cookies and similar technologies to keep you signed in, remember your preferences, keep the platform secure, and understand how it's used so we can improve it. Some of these are essential for the site to function; others, such as analytics, help us learn what's working. You can control cookies through your browser settings, though turning off essential cookies may stop parts of Vibetown from working as intended.

6. How long we keep your data

We keep your personal information for as long as your account is active and for as long as we need it to provide the service, comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. When we no longer have a good reason to keep your data, we delete it or anonymize it. If you close your account, we'll remove or anonymize your personal information within a reasonable period, though some records may remain in secure backups for a limited time or where the law requires us to retain them.

7. How we protect your data

We take security seriously and use a combination of technical and organizational measures — such as encryption in transit, access controls, and careful vendor selection — to protect your information against loss, misuse, and unauthorized access. No system is ever perfectly secure, so we can't promise absolute protection, but we work continuously to keep your data safe, and if a breach ever affects you, we'll act quickly and tell you what you need to know.

8. International transfers

Innolope LLC is based in the United States, and the service providers we work with may be located in other countries. That means your information may be processed outside the country where you live, including in places whose data-protection laws differ from your own. Where we transfer personal data across borders, we take steps to make sure it stays protected in line with this policy and applicable law.

9. Your rights and choices

You have real control over your personal information. Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access the data we hold about you, correct it if it's wrong, ask us to delete it, object to or restrict certain processing, withdraw consent you've given, and receive a copy of your data in a portable format. You can exercise many of these rights directly in your account settings, and for anything else you can email us at [email protected]. We'll respond within the timeframes the law requires, and we'll never charge you or make it hard to exercise a right you have.

10. Children's privacy

Vibetown isn't intended for children, and we don't knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 16 (or the age of digital consent where you live, if that's higher). If you believe a child has given us their information, please contact us and we'll delete it promptly.

11. Changes to this policy

As Vibetown evolves, we may update this Privacy Policy to reflect new features or legal requirements. When we make a meaningful change, we'll update the date at the bottom of this page and, where appropriate, give you additional notice. We encourage you to check back now and then so you always know how your information is handled.
