What we collect

People looking for work: your email and name, and whatever you add to your profile. That can be where you are now (studying, in NS, working), whether you are looking, your school, course, qualification and graduation year, your job title, employer, field, industry and years of experience, when you could start, your right to work in Singapore, the pay you are aiming for, skills, languages, the kind of work and company you want, a short intro, a CV and links, including LinkedIn. Every one of these is optional. We do not ask for your NRIC, phone number, age, gender, race or religion.

Companies: company name, work email, website, and optionally your UEN.

Why

To show you relevant roles, to send an application to a company when you choose to apply, to put you forward for roles if you say companies can find you, to introduce you to other people on Worksider for networking or mentoring if you say yes to that, and to email you matching roles if you ask for that. Pay figures from job listings are used, without naming anyone, in our Singapore pay averages.

Who sees it

A company sees your profile and CV for roles you actually apply to.

Unless you switch it to "Only companies I apply to", companies can find you on Worksider. That means we may show a company a short summary of your profile when you look like a match: no name, no contact details, no employer, no school, no links and no pay. If the company is interested, we ask you. Your name, contact details and CV go to that company only after you say yes to it. We never show your profile to the company you say you work for. You can change this on your profile at any time.

Unless you untick "Introduce me to people", we may also introduce you to someone else on Worksider for networking or mentoring. Each of you first sees the same kind of summary, with no name or contact details. Your name and contact details go to that person only after you both say yes.

Some answers are never shown to any company or to anyone we introduce you to: the pay you are aiming for, whether you are looking, the kind of company you want, and your current employer. We use them only to decide which roles fit you.

Reading your CV

If you press "Read my CV", your CV is sent to Anthropic, the company that makes Claude, to be read. What it finds is shown to you in the form to check, and nothing is saved until you press Save. Anthropic processes it for us under its commercial terms, which do not allow it to train its models on it. What was read from your CV is deleted when your CV is.

How long

CVs are deleted after 12 months without activity, and immediately when you delete them, along with anything read from them. Unverified accounts go after 7 days. Delete your account from your dashboard and everything personal goes within 30 days; payment records are kept five years because IRAS requires it.

Where

Our hosting is in Singapore. We use Stripe for payments, Mailgun for email, Google for sign-in and to count visits, Microsoft to see how pages get used, Telegram for the channel and Anthropic to read CVs you ask us to read, so some data is processed outside Singapore under their own protections.

Counting visits is Google Analytics. It sets cookies so we can see how many people come and which pages they use. It never sees your CV or your profile, and the private part of any link we email you is removed before anything is sent. Cloudflare, which carries all traffic to the site, also counts page loads and how fast they are, without cookies.

Seeing how pages get used is Microsoft Clarity. It shows us where people click, how far they scroll and where they get stuck, so we can fix what is confusing, and it sets cookies to link the pages of one visit. It never sees what you type. On your profile, your dashboard, your company page and the applicants pages it sees none of the words either, and it is never on for a link we email you, so it never sees your CV, your name or your contact details.
