1. Who We Are

Nigeria Best Jobs (“we”, “us” or “our”) connects job seekers with employers across Nigeria through nigeriabestjobs.com.

The organisation responsible for processing personal information under this policy is:

Business name: Nigeria Best Jobs
Business address: Suite RA01, 195–197 Wood Street, London, E17 3NU
Contact email: info@nigeriabestjobs.com
Telephone: +44 7572 929385

This policy explains how we handle personal information when you visit our website, contact us, subscribe to job alerts or use our recruitment support services.

We handle personal information in accordance with applicable data protection requirements, including the UK General Data Protection Regulation and the Data Protection Act 2018 where applicable.

2. Information We Collect

Depending on how you interact with us, we may collect:

• Contact information: Your name, email address, telephone number and information included in your enquiries.
• Recruitment information: CVs, employment history, qualifications, skills and other details you choose to provide directly to us.
• Employer information: Business name, contact person, business contact details, vacancy information and recruitment requirements.
• Subscription information: Your email address, subscription preferences and confirmation or unsubscribe records.
• Technical information: IP address, browser and device information, pages requested, access times and security logs.
• Communications: Messages and correspondence relating to enquiries, services, complaints or privacy requests.

Please provide only information relevant to your enquiry or application. Avoid sending sensitive information, identity documents or financial details unless necessary for a clearly explained purpose.

3. How We Obtain Information

We obtain personal information when you:

• Complete a website form.
• Contact us by email, telephone or another communication channel.
• Send us a CV or request recruitment assistance.
• Submit a vacancy or request candidate shortlisting.
• Subscribe to job alerts.
• Visit or interact with the website.

Where someone provides another person’s information, such as a referee’s contact details, they should have authority to share it and ensure that person is informed.

Our hosting, security and subscription providers may also process technical information when delivering their services.

4. How We Use Information

We use relevant personal information to:

• Respond to enquiries and provide requested assistance.
• Publish and manage vacancies.
• Provide agreed recruitment and CV shortlisting services.
• Deliver job alerts requested by subscribers.
• Operate, maintain and protect the website.
• Detect spam, fraud, misuse and technical problems.
• Manage business relationships and service records.
• Handle complaints and privacy requests.
• Meet applicable legal obligations and establish or defend legal claims.

Information provided for one purpose will not automatically be treated as permission for unrelated marketing or unrestricted sharing.

5. Our Legal Bases for Processing

Where applicable data protection law requires a lawful basis, we rely on the basis appropriate to the activity:

Contract or steps requested before a contract: To provide agreed services or respond to a request connected with entering into an agreement.

Legitimate interests: To manage relevant business enquiries, administer recruitment support, protect the website and maintain necessary records, where those interests are not overridden by your rights.

Consent: For optional email subscriptions and other activities where consent is required, including relevant advertising or tracking technologies.

Legal obligations: Where processing is necessary to comply with applicable law.

If processing requires consent, you may withdraw it at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.

If sensitive personal information is needed for a particular recruitment activity, an appropriate additional legal condition must also apply.

6. Who We Share Information With

We may share relevant information with:

• Employers or recruitment clients, where necessary for recruitment assistance you have requested and consistent with the purpose explained to you.
• Service providers, supporting website hosting, form storage, communications, security and subscriptions.
• Professional advisers, where necessary for legal, accounting or business advice.
• Public authorities, where disclosure is legally required.
• Other recipients, where you authorise a specific disclosure.

Access should be limited to information necessary for the relevant purpose. Employers receiving candidate information are responsible for their own lawful handling of that information.

Information submitted for a public vacancy advertisement, including any contact details intended for publication, will be visible to website visitors.

7. International Processing

Our business contact address is in the United Kingdom, and our services concern employment opportunities in Nigeria. Information may therefore be accessed or processed in the United Kingdom, Nigeria or countries used by relevant service providers.

Where a transfer is subject to UK international data transfer rules, an appropriate transfer mechanism must apply. Depending on the circumstances, this may involve an adequacy decision, approved contractual safeguards or a permitted exception.

You may contact us for details of the destinations and safeguards relevant to the processing of your information.

8. How Long We Keep Information

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary for its purpose, taking account of legal obligations and relevant disputes.

The criteria depend on the information involved:

• Enquiries and correspondence: Whether the enquiry has been resolved and whether a record is needed for follow-up or a dispute.
• CVs and recruitment records: The duration of the recruitment activity, any agreed ongoing assistance and relevant legal requirements. Providing a CV does not automatically authorise indefinite retention for future vacancies.
• Employer and service records: The duration of the business relationship and applicable accounting or legal requirements.
• Subscription records: Whether the subscription remains active. Limited unsubscribe records may be retained to respect your preferences.
• Technical and security logs: The period reasonably needed to identify faults, investigate misuse and protect the website.

Information no longer required should be securely deleted or anonymised. Service providers may have separate retention arrangements described in their privacy notices.

9. Cookies and Advertising

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies for essential functions, security, saved preferences and advertising.

The website includes Google AdSense integration. Google and its partners may use cookies, identifiers and information about your interaction with websites to deliver, personalise and measure advertising, depending on applicable requirements and your choices. Further information is available in Google’s explanation of data use on partner websites.

Where consent is legally required, optional cookies or similar technologies must not be activated before that consent is obtained. Continuing to browse does not, by itself, constitute consent.

You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking essential cookies may affect website functionality. Browser controls do not necessarily disable every form of tracking.

10. Job Alerts and follow.it

Our email subscription feature uses follow.it to process subscriptions and deliver updates from our jobs feed.

When you subscribe, your email address is submitted to follow.it. You may need to confirm your subscription before receiving updates. The service may also process subscription preferences and technical information as described in its privacy policy.

Where you subscribe through a form or subscription link provided for our website, follow.it may make your subscriber information available to us. See the follow.it Privacy Policy.

You can unsubscribe using the options provided in subscription emails. Subscribing to job alerts does not create a candidate account on our website or submit an application to an employer.

11. Your Rights and Complaints

Depending on the applicable law and circumstances, you may have rights to:

• Obtain access to your personal information.
• Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information.
• Request deletion of information.
• Request restrictions on processing.
• Object to processing based on legitimate interests.
• Object to direct marketing.
• Receive or transfer certain information in a portable format.
• Withdraw consent where processing relies on consent.

These rights are subject to applicable conditions and exceptions. We may need to verify your identity before responding to a request.

Send privacy requests to info@nigeriabestjobs.com.

You may also complain to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office. Information on raising a concern is available on the ICO complaints website. You do not have to contact us first. Depending on where you live and the processing involved, you may also have rights to complain to another relevant supervisory authority.

12. External Job Applications and Links

Some job listings direct you to an employer’s website, recruitment platform or email address.

Information you provide directly to those organisations is handled under their own privacy policies. Nigeria Best Jobs does not automatically receive a copy of an external application.

Please review the recipient’s privacy information before sending a CV or other personal details.

This policy does not govern independent websites or services accessed through links or advertisements on our website.

13. Information Security

Personal information should be protected through appropriate technical and organisational measures, including access restrictions and safeguards relevant to the systems used.

No internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure. Please avoid sending unnecessary sensitive information through website forms or ordinary email.

If you believe information sent to us has been exposed or misused, contact us promptly at info@nigeriabestjobs.com.

14. Information You Choose to Provide

You may browse job listings without submitting a CV or subscribing to alerts.

Where information is necessary to respond to an enquiry or provide a requested service, choosing not to supply it may prevent us from completing that request.

Please keep information you provide accurate and tell us when an important correction is needed.

15. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy to reflect changes in our services, providers or applicable requirements.

The current version will be published on this page with its effective date. Where required, we will provide additional notice of material changes or seek fresh consent before processing information for a new purpose.
