Privacy Policy — JobGlobe
What this app is (and is not)
JobGlobe is an independent directory that gathers the most popular job-search websites across the world’s busiest hiring markets — organised by country — and helps you reach them quickly. On top of that directory the app adds its own native features: a search box, country browsing, and on-device starred shortcuts to the sites you use most. When you tap a job site, it opens inside a simple in-app browser, and you can hand the page off to your phone’s default browser at any time with “Open in browser”. JobGlobe is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any of the job sites it links to (Indeed, LinkedIn, Glassdoor, SEEK, Naukri, Bayt, StepStone, JobStreet, Reed, or any other). All product names and trademarks belong to their respective owners.
What this app collects
JobGlobe does not collect any personal information from you. There are no user accounts, no sign-in, and no server we control that stores your activity.
| Data | Collected? | Stored where |
|---|---|---|
| Name, email, account info | No | — |
| Device location | No | — |
| Contacts, camera, microphone | No — the app does not request these permissions | — |
| Starred job sites | Only which of the built-in sites you tap the star icon on (stored as short IDs) | App-private SharedPreferences on this device only |
| Search text you type | Used only to filter the on-device list of job sites; never sent anywhere | Not stored |
| Pages you open in the in-app browser | Loaded directly from the job site’s own website; the app does not log, read, or transmit your browsing | Standard WebView cache on your device (clearable in Android settings) |
| Crash logs / analytics | No | — |
How the in-app browser works
Tapping a job site opens that site’s own public website inside Android’s standard WebView component, scoped to the URL you selected. The page is served directly by the job site — the same content you would get by typing the address into any browser. JobGlobe does not inject scripts into those pages, and does not read your cookies, login credentials, session tokens, or the content you submit on them. For sign-in or applying with an account, we recommend using the “Open in browser” button so the flow runs in your full system browser, where the third-party site’s own privacy policy applies.
Permissions the app requests
- Internet / network state — required to load job-site pages and to request ads. The app shows a “You’re offline” screen when there is no connection.
The app does not request contacts, location, microphone, camera, storage, or any other sensitive permission.
Advertising
JobGlobe shows ads provided by Google AdMob in three formats: banner (a small strip above the content), interstitial (an occasional full-screen ad after several site opens), and app-open (a full-screen ad when you bring the app back to the foreground — never on the first launch). Google’s advertising SDK collects and processes limited data — for example, your device’s advertising identifier and approximate IP-based location — to serve and measure ads. This is governed by Google’s policies:
If you live in a region where consent is required (the EEA, UK, Switzerland, or a US state with applicable privacy law), the app uses Google’s User Messaging Platform (UMP) and you can re-open the consent form from About → “Ad Privacy & Consent Options”.
No fees, ever
JobGlobe is free and will never ask you to pay for a job, a visa, or an application. Legitimate employers do not charge candidates. Treat anyone who asks for payment as a red flag.
Children
JobGlobe is intended for job seekers and is not designed for children. The AdMob ad content is mixed-audience.
Trademark notice
Indeed, LinkedIn, Glassdoor, SEEK, Naukri, Bayt, StepStone, JobStreet, Reed, and all other named job sites are trademarks of their respective owners. Their inclusion in this directory is nominative — JobGlobe helps you reach those public services and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any of them.
