Our core function is to provide links that redirect you to the official application pages on employer or third-party job board websites.

We do not and will not sell, rent, or trade your personal information.
We may share information we collect in the following situations:

- With Advertising Partners: We may share non-personally identifiable information (such as browser type or general demographic data) with third-party advertising partners to facilitate the delivery of relevant ads.
6. Advertising Disclosures and Third-Party Vendors
Our website uses Google AdSense to display advertisements. As part of this service, third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user’s prior visits to our website and/or other sites on the Internet.
A. Use of Advertising Cookies: Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to our users based on their visit to our site and/or other sites on the Internet. This allows for the delivery of personalized advertising (also known as interest-based advertising or behavioral targeting).
B. User Consent for Personalized Ads: By using our site, you consent to the use of such cookies for personalized advertising. You have the right to object to this processing.
C. How to Opt-Out of Personalized Advertising:
- Users may opt out of personalized advertising from Google by visiting Google’s Ads Settings.
- Users may opt out of personalized advertising from third-party vendors who use cookies by visiting the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page or the Digital Advertising Alliance’s opt-out page.
- You can also manage your cookie preferences directly through your browser settings (see Section 8).
D. Non-Personalized Ads: If you opt out of personalized advertising, you may still see contextual advertisements based on the content of the webpage you are viewing, but these ads will not be based on your past browsing behavior.
7. Third-Party Links and External Sites
Our Service contains numerous links to external job application sites (employer career pages, platforms like LinkedIn, Indeed, etc.). This Privacy Policy applies ONLY to information collected by UniversalJobBoard.com.
We have no control over, and assume no responsibility for, the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites or services, including our advertising partners and the job sites we link to. We strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policy and terms of service of every site you visit when you click a link that leaves our Service.
