vWorka ("we", "us", or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you use our platform at vworka.com.ng.

1. Information We Collect

We collect the following information when you use vWorka:

  • Phone number — used as your login and for employers to contact you after interview invite
  • Full name — displayed on your profile and CV
  • Location — your area in Lagos, used to match you with nearby jobs
  • Work history and skills — displayed on your CV to employers
  • Guarantor information — name, phone and relationship, used for identity verification
  • Education and training — displayed on your CV
  • Payment information — for employers, wallet transactions are recorded

2. How We Use Your Information

  • To create and manage your account
  • To match workers with relevant job opportunities
  • To allow employers to review worker profiles and CVs
  • To reveal worker phone numbers to employers only after an interview invite is sent
  • To verify worker identities and guarantors
  • To process wallet payments and transactions
  • To send you notifications about your applications and job invites

3. Phone Number Privacy

Your phone number is protected on vWorka. Employers cannot see your phone number by simply viewing your profile or CV. Your phone number is only revealed to an employer after they have:

  • Unlocked a hiring slot
  • Sent you a formal interview invitation

This ensures your contact details are only shared with employers who are seriously considering hiring you.

4. Information Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We share your information only in these cases:

  • With employers — your profile, CV, skills and work history are visible to employers. Your phone number is only shared after interview invite.
  • With our team — vWorka staff may access your information to verify your account or resolve disputes.
  • Legal requirements — we may disclose information if required by Nigerian law or court order.

5. Data Security

We use Supabase for secure data storage with industry-standard encryption. Your password is never stored in plain text. We use row-level security policies to ensure users can only access their own data.

6. Your Rights

You have the right to:

  • Access your personal data at any time
  • Update or correct your information
  • Request deletion of your account and data
  • Withdraw consent for data processing

To exercise these rights, contact us at vworka.business@gmail.com

7. Cookies

vWorka uses cookies only for authentication purposes — to keep you logged in. We do not use tracking or advertising cookies.

8. Children's Privacy

vWorka is not intended for users under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors.

9. Changes to This Policy
