Privacy Policy

At Clarvo, we take your privacy seriously. This privacy policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information.

Clarvo and Jobgeek

Clarvo Oy, formerly known as Hanki App, is a company based in Finland that operates online marketplaces connecting companies with job seekers. Our platforms include Clarvo and Jobgeek, which use algorithm-based employment mediation technology accessible through our websites at www.clarvo.ai and www.jobgeek.ai. In this privacy policy, we refer to ourselves as “Clarvo,” “we,” “us,” or “our,” and our platforms collectively as “Services.”

At Clarvo, we respect your privacy and are committed to protecting the personal information you share with us. Protecting your data and transparency on data usage is one of our core values. This privacy policy outlines the ways in which we process your personal data when you use our Services.

1.1 Registration and the Use of Our CV Creation Tools

When you register to use our standard services, we will store the following categories of personal data to connect you with relevant job opportunities:

We only process personal data that we obtain from you and your provided sources. This includes information provided by you from third parties such as filling in data through LinkedIn. Please note that your anonymity on our websites is not absolute. Your user account is connected to your email address, so your identity may be identifiable to us.

We may use information provided by you to collect data on your profile. Additionally, we may collect and use information from your publicly available professional profiles (such as LinkedIn, GitHub, or other professional networking sites) to enrich and update your profile. This may include information about your professional experience, skills, achievements, and other career-related information that you have made publicly available. This is done to help connect you with companies that match your ambitions and preferences.
