Privacy Policy

What we collect

CampFIFO Jobs Canada does not require accounts and does not collect resumes, names, email addresses or any other personal information from job seekers to browse listings. When you apply to a job, you leave our site and complete the application on the employer’s own website, which is governed by that employer’s privacy policy.

Like most websites, our hosting provider automatically records standard technical information when you visit — such as your IP address, browser type, referring page and access times — in server logs used for security monitoring and troubleshooting. This information is not linked to a user profile because none exists.

Cookies

We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. Search filters work entirely through URL parameters, so no cookie is needed to remember your preferences. Employers who contact us may have their correspondence retained as part of ordinary business records.

Your rights under PIPEDA

We handle any personal information in our custody — such as employer contact details or correspondence — in accordance with the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA). You have the right to access the personal information we hold about you, to challenge its accuracy, and to request correction or deletion. Requests can be sent to privacy@campfifojobs.ca and will be answered within 30 days.

Accounts and security

If you create an account, we store your email address, a bcrypt hash of your password (never the password itself), your role (job seeker or employer), and — for employers — your company name. Employers’ job postings and seekers’ saved jobs are stored against your account.

When you log in, we set a single httpOnly session cookie (campfifo_session) containing an opaque random token. The token itself is stored only as a hash in our database, sessions expire after 30 days, and logging out deletes the session. The cookie is flagged SameSite=Lax, which also means it is not sent on cross-site form posts.

We do not use any third-party analytics or tracking cookies, and we do not share account data with anyone. There is currently no password reset feature, so if you forget your password there is nothing to recover — contact us and we can delete the account so you can re-register.

Job seekers can optionally save a search and opt in to one daily email per search when new matching jobs are posted (CASL-compliant consent, recorded when you subscribe). Alert emails always include an unsubscribe link to your saved-searches page, and deleting the search stops its emails immediately. Transactional email is sent through our email provider using only your email address; no other personal information is included in alert emails.

The “Report this job” button on job pages is fully anonymous: it stores the job reference, an optional reason you type, and the time of the report — never your name, email or account.

Changes and contact

If we begin collecting personal information — for example, saved searches or job alerts in a future release — this policy will be updated before those features launch, and consent will be obtained where required. Questions about this policy can be directed to privacy@campfifojobs.ca.
