Privacy Policy

1. Who We Are

Acadveda ("Acadveda", "we", "us", or "our") operates an education talent platform that connects schools, colleges, and education vendors with educators looking for jobs, skills, and career growth. We collaborate with institutions across states, districts, and blocks so hiring and professional development can happen in one place.

This policy applies to our public website, account registration and login, job portal, training programs, and related support or contact forms.

2. Who This Policy Covers

This policy applies to anyone who visits Acadveda or creates an account, including:

• Educators such as teachers, HODs, principals, and clerical or administrative staff who create profiles and apply for roles.
• Schools, colleges, and other institutions that post jobs, review applicants, and manage hiring.
• Administrators and support users who manage accounts, roles, locations, and listings.
• Visitors who browse the website, join training, or send a message through our contact form.

3. Information We Collect

We collect information you provide, information created when you use the platform, and limited technical data needed to keep Acadveda secure and working.

• Account details: name, email address, phone number, password, and the role you register under (for example teacher, principal, school, or staff).
• Professional profile: qualifications, subject expertise, experience, achievements, photo, address, and location such as state, district, or block.
• Applications and documents: resumes, cover letters, certificates, and other materials you submit for a job.
• Institution and hiring data: school or college name, job listings, role requirements, applicant status, and recruitment activity.
• Training records: course or workshop enrolment, progress, and certifications issued through Acadveda.
• Support messages: name, email, and the content of messages sent through our contact form.
• Usage data: pages viewed, device and browser type, IP address, and similar diagnostic information.

4. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to operate Acadveda as an education hiring and professional-development platform, including to:

• Create and manage your account and role-based access.
• Show tailored job listings and help educators search by location, subject, and institution type.
• Let schools post openings, review applications, and run a more efficient hiring process.
• Match candidates with roles using the profiles, filters, and recruitment tools on the platform.
• Deliver specialized training, leadership programs, and certification records.
• Communicate about account activity, applications, security alerts, and support.
• Improve the website, prevent misuse, and comply with legal obligations.

5. How Information Is Shared

Acadveda is built so the right people can see the information needed for hiring and training. We do not sell your personal information. We share it only as described below.

• Schools and institutions see the professional profiles and application materials of candidates who apply to their jobs.
• Educators see job listings and relevant institution information posted by schools and colleges.
• Administrators and support teams may access accounts, roles, locations, and listings to operate and support the platform.
• Service providers who host, secure, or help us run Acadveda may process data on our instructions.
• We may disclose information if required by law, or to protect the rights, safety, and integrity of Acadveda, our users, and institutions.

6. Role-Based Access

Access on Acadveda depends on your role. A teacher, principal, school, or admin user only sees the features and records associated with that role. Schools should not use applicant information for purposes unrelated to recruitment, and educators should only use institution or job information to evaluate and apply for roles.

7. Cookies and Similar Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to keep you signed in, remember preferences, understand how the website is used, and improve performance. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Some features, including login and account sessions, may not work correctly if essential cookies are disabled.

8. Data Retention

We keep account, profile, application, job-posting, and training records for as long as your account is active and as needed to provide the service, resolve disputes, and meet legal or operational requirements. You may request deletion of your account or certain records, subject to information we must retain for hiring history, certifications, security, or compliance.

9. Security

We use administrative, technical, and organizational measures appropriate to an education hiring platform, including role-based access controls, to protect personal and professional information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security. Please keep your login credentials confidential and tell us promptly if you believe your account has been misused.

10. Your Choices and Rights

Depending on applicable law, you may be able to access, update, or delete certain information in your Acadveda profile, manage communication preferences, or ask us to correct or restrict how we use your data. You can update many profile and account details after signing in. For other requests, use the contact options on this website.

11. Children's Privacy

Acadveda is intended for education professionals, schools, and institutions — not for children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has provided information to us, please contact us so we can delete it.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as Acadveda adds features or as legal requirements change. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page will change when we do. Continued use of Acadveda after an update means you accept the revised policy.

13. Contact Us

If you have questions about this Privacy Policy or how Acadveda handles personal or professional information, please reach us through the Contact page on this website. We will review privacy requests related to educator profiles, school accounts, job applications, and training records.
