ConnectToCampus connects Computer Science students with companies that are hiring. This policy explains what we collect from students and from companies, how we use it, and the choices you have.
This Privacy Policy applies to ConnectToCampus (“ConnectToCampus”, “we”, “our” or “us”) and to the website, applications and services we operate (together, the “Service”). It applies to everyone who uses the Service — students and job seekers, and the companies and recruiters who engage with us.
By using the Service, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with it, please do not use the Service.
When you create an account or complete your profile, we collect information such as:
You do not have to provide optional information, but some features may not work without it.
If you sign in with a third-party provider such as Google, we receive information from that provider — typically your name, email address, profile picture and a unique identifier. We use it to create and secure your account. We do not receive your third-party account password.
To help companies evaluate candidates on evidence rather than on résumés alone, we collect and display skill-related information, including:
Please note: connected developer profiles are public by nature. When you link one, we may read and display publicly available information from it. Only connect accounts you are comfortable having shown to companies. You can disconnect a profile at any time, and it will stop updating, though previously shared copies may persist as described in Section 10.
When you use the jobs and applications features, we collect:
If you contact us on behalf of a company, or if you post roles on the Service, we collect the information you give us — for example your company name, your name, your work email address, the role you are hiring for, the number of openings, and any notes you add. We also collect the content of job postings you publish, such as the role title, description, location, compensation information and required skills.
Where a recruiter account is created for a company, we associate that account with the company and the role it is hiring for.
When a company asks us for a candidate batch, we prepare a shortlist from student profiles and share it with that company through a private link. See Section 5 for what that means for students and for companies.
When you use the Service, we and our infrastructure providers may automatically collect:
We use this for security, troubleshooting, measurement and improving the Service.
We use the information we collect to:
We will not use your personal information for purposes materially different from those described here without giving you notice where the law requires it.
Assessment and contest results on ConnectToCampus are a professional signal, not a game score. They are stored on your profile, may be shown to companies that are hiring through the Service, and are used to decide who appears in a candidate shortlist.
This is an important change from earlier versions of this policy. Our assessment and leaderboard results are used to evaluate candidates for real hiring, and should not be treated as entertainment. If you do not want a result to form part of your professional profile, do not take the assessment, or contact us to remove it where we are able to do so.
When a company asks us for candidates, we use profile information, assessment results, connected-profile signals and the role requirements to select students who may be a fit, and we prepare a shortlist. This involves automated comparison of profile data against the role. It does not make an employment decision — the company interviews and decides — but it determines which profiles the company is shown.
When we send a company a shortlist, the company receives a private, unlisted link to a page showing the selected candidates and their professional information — typically names, campuses, skills, assessment results and connected-profile signals.
Some information may be visible to other users, or to companies, depending on the feature and your settings — for example your display name, username, avatar, public profile details, campus and department, skills, assessment results, leaderboard positions, connected-profile signals, and content you publish such as job postings or interview experiences.
Do not add information to your profile that you do not want companies or other users to see. Where we offer a private-profile setting, use it if you want to limit visibility — note that private profiles may be excluded from candidate shortlists.
We use cookies, local storage and similar technologies to:
Strictly necessary cookies are required for the Service to work. Optional analytics run only after you accept them, and nothing is measured for visitors who decline or who have not yet decided. For the specific cookies we use and how to control them, see our Cookie Policy.
We rely on third-party providers for infrastructure and functionality. These currently include providers of authentication, database and file storage, hosting and content delivery, and optional analytics. For example:
These providers process information on our behalf or under their own terms. We encourage you to read their privacy policies. We do not sell your personal information.
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect information against unauthorised access, disclosure, loss, misuse, alteration and destruction. These include access controls and row-level security rules that restrict which records each account can read.
No internet-based service can guarantee absolute security. Keep your account credentials secure, and contact us immediately if you believe your account has been compromised.
We keep information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the Service, maintain your account, fulfil the purposes described in this policy, meet legal, accounting and security requirements, resolve disputes, enforce our agreements and prevent fraud or abuse.
When information is no longer reasonably required, we delete it, anonymise it or securely dispose of it, subject to legal and operational requirements. Information already shared with a company through a shortlist is subject to Section 5.
You may ask us to delete your account and the personal information associated with it by contacting us through the support channel on the website.
Some information may need to be retained where the law requires it, or where it is reasonably necessary for legitimate security, fraud-prevention, dispute-resolution or legal purposes. Deleting your account may also remove content, applications, assessment history and other account-related data, and may remove you from shortlists that have not yet been delivered.
Depending on where you live and the law that applies to you, you may have the right to:
To exercise a right, contact us using the details in Section 19. We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request, and some rights are subject to legal exceptions.
The Service is intended for users who are legally able to use it. You must be at least 13 years old, or older where your jurisdiction requires a higher age for a service of this kind.
Because the Service is used for hiring, if you are below the age of majority where you live, you should only apply for roles, or take part in hiring-related features, with the involvement of a parent or guardian, and you must be legally able to work in the relevant location. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children where that is prohibited by law. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information in violation of applicable requirements, contact us and we will review and act on it.
The Service lets users create and publish content, such as job postings, interview experiences and profile text. You are responsible for what you publish, and you should think carefully before including personal information. We are not responsible for personal information you choose to make public.
We send communications needed to run your account and the Service, such as security alerts, application updates, shortlist notifications, important service changes and replies to your support requests. Where the law requires it, marketing messages will include a way to unsubscribe or manage your preferences.
The Service may link to third-party sites and services. We do not control them and are not responsible for their privacy practices. Read their privacy policies before providing personal information.
Your information may be processed and stored on servers located outside your state, province or country, depending on the infrastructure providers we use. Where applicable, we take reasonable steps to ensure that such processing is carried out in accordance with applicable data-protection law.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. For material changes, we may give additional notice where the law requires it — for example by email or a prominent notice in the Service. Continuing to use the Service after an updated policy takes effect means you acknowledge the updated policy.
If you have questions, concerns or requests about this Privacy Policy or your personal information, contact us through the support channel on the website. For privacy and data-protection requests, please mark your message clearly as a “Privacy Request” so it reaches the right team.

This Privacy Policy describes our general privacy practices and is intended to give you transparency about how information may be handled. The exact information collected depends on the features you use, your account settings and applicable law. Nothing in this policy limits any rights you may have under applicable data-protection or privacy law.
