Recruitfeed
Privacy Statement
Last updated 1 November 2026
Who this statement covers
recruitfeed.com belongs to Recruitfeed, a small recruitment service in Moruya on the New South Wales South Coast. We connect people living in Australia with home-based roles run by other businesses. This statement sets out what happens to personal information when someone reads our pages or contacts us.
We work to the Australian Privacy Principles in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth). Questions about anything below can go to support@recruitfeed.com.
Information you give us
The site does not have an application form that stores your answers on our server. Applicants reach us by WhatsApp or by email, and we only hold what they decide to send. In practice that tends to be:
- your first name or full name
- the mobile number attached to your WhatsApp
- your email address, if you write to us by email
- whether part-time or full-time work interests you
- anything else you include in a message, such as your town or which days suit you
If a form is added later, this statement will be updated beforehand and every field on that form will be named here.
Details from anyone else
Recruitfeed does not purchase mailing lists and does not copy information from social media accounts. When an employer lets us know the result of an introduction, for example that a position is now taken, we may add a short note so we can keep you informed.
Technical records
Whenever a page is requested, the hosting service records basic technical data such as the requesting IP address, the type of browser and device, the page address and the time. These records help us keep the site secure and fix faults. We do not use them to work out who a visitor is.
Information we will not ask for
Nobody at Recruitfeed will ask you for passwords, one-time codes, online banking logins or photos of identity documents by WhatsApp or email. A message asking for these did not come from us. Do not answer it, and please forward it to support@recruitfeed.com.
How the information is used
We read your messages so we can reply, explain the training course and the two types of role, suggest which one might fit, and set up an introduction to an employer if you ask for one. Keeping a record of the conversation saves you from explaining things twice.
What we do not do with it
We never sell, trade or rent applicant information. We do not send marketing for other products. Your details go only to the employer you have agreed to, and to no other business unless we have asked and you have said yes.
Introductions to employers
You will know the name of the employer before we introduce you. Once you agree, we share the minimum that employer needs, normally your name and mobile number. The employer then looks after its own copy under the privacy rules that apply to it.
Service providers
A handful of outside services help us run the site and talk with applicants:
- Cloudflare, which hosts the website and forwards emails sent to support@recruitfeed.com
- Google Fonts, which supplies the typefaces on our pages and may see your IP address while they load
- WhatsForm, which provides the Apply button and opens WhatsApp so you can message HR
- WhatsApp, a Meta service, which carries the messages you send to HR
Before we begin using any further service that would handle applicant information, we will name it in this list.
When the law requires disclosure
Information may be released if an Australian law, a court order or an authorised government agency requires it, or where it is reasonably necessary to protect someone from serious harm.
Messages on WhatsApp
You are always the one who sends a WhatsApp message to HR. Tapping Apply, or a WhatsApp link, only opens the app; nothing goes anywhere until you press send. When you do, we see the message, your WhatsApp profile name and your phone number.
Cookies
recruitfeed.com runs no analytics and sets no advertising cookies at present. Your browser may store small technical files that help the pages load and display correctly. The Apply button is provided by WhatsForm, and that service has its own policy. If we ever add a measurement tool, it will be described here before it goes live.
Advertising
Recruitfeed may promote its roles online. No advertising pixel or conversion tag is installed on the site today. Should one be added, we will publish its identifier here, it will never receive your name or phone number, and we will not use enhanced conversions, Customer Match or remarketing lists built from applicant information.
Storage outside Australia
Cloudflare, Google, WhatsForm and WhatsApp may keep or process data in other countries, including the United States and member states of the European Union. Each company publishes its own privacy and security terms.
How long we keep things
Chat and email records are deleted no later than 12 months after our last contact with you. Technical logs are cleared within 30 days, and backup copies may take a further 30 days to expire.
Keeping information safe
Access to applicant messages is limited to the Recruitfeed team members who handle applications. Our accounts are protected with strong, separate passwords and two-step sign-in wherever the service offers it. No online service can promise perfect security, so please leave sensitive information out of messages unless we specifically ask for it.
Copies held by others
Your WhatsApp chat is also stored on your own phone, and an employer you meet through us keeps its own file. Deleting our records does not remove those copies.
Your choices
Email support@recruitfeed.com to find out what we hold about you, to have it corrected, or to have it deleted. We will reply within 30 days. You can withdraw from the process at any time and we will stop using your details, although we cannot recall information an employer has already received with your consent.
People, not programs
Applications are never approved or rejected automatically. Every message is read by a person on our team.
Minimum age
Recruitfeed roles are open to adults aged 18 or older. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone younger.
Complaints
If you think we have handled your information badly, tell us at support@recruitfeed.com and explain what happened. We will look into it and send you a written answer.
Telling a friend
Want to pass Recruitfeed on to someone? Please send them a link to the website instead of giving us their contact details, so they can read this statement and choose what to share.
Changes to this statement
We revise this statement whenever our practices change, and the date at the top shows the version in force. For bigger changes, such as a new form or a new provider, we will also let current applicants know.
