Privacy Policy

Visary ("we", "us", "our") operates the Visary website and mobile application — a platform that helps individuals find visa-sponsored employment opportunities in the United Kingdom. Our registered address and contact details are available at the bottom of this page.

We are the data controller for the personal information you provide to us when using our services.

We collect the following categories of personal data:

• Account data — your name, email address, and password when you register.
• Profile data — CV details, work history, education, skills, and job preferences you add to your profile.
• Usage data — pages visited, jobs viewed, search queries, and interactions with features.
• Device data — IP address, browser type, operating system, and device identifiers.
• Payment data — billing details processed securely via our payment provider. We do not store card numbers.
• Communications — messages you send us and email preferences.

We use your data to:

• Provide and personalise our job search and CV building services.
• Match you with relevant visa-sponsored job opportunities.
• Send job alert emails if you have subscribed (premium feature).
• Process subscription payments and manage your account.
• Improve our platform through analytics and user feedback.
• Comply with legal obligations and prevent fraud.
• Send service-related communications (e.g. security alerts, policy updates).

Under UK GDPR, we rely on the following legal bases:

• Contract — processing necessary to provide our services to you.
• Legitimate interests — analytics, fraud prevention, and improving our platform.
• Consent — marketing emails and optional cookies. You may withdraw consent at any time.
• Legal obligation — where required by law.

We do not sell your personal data. We may share it with:

• Service providers — hosting (Vercel), database (Firebase/Google Cloud), payment processing, and analytics tools, all bound by data processing agreements.
• Employers — only if you explicitly apply for a role or opt in to profile visibility.
• Legal authorities — where required by applicable law or court order.
• Business transfers — in the event of a merger or acquisition, under appropriate confidentiality terms.

We retain your account data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we will remove your personal data within 30 days, except where we are required to retain it for legal purposes (e.g. financial records for 6 years under UK tax law).

Under UK GDPR you have the right to:

• Access — request a copy of the data we hold about you.
• Rectification — correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
• Erasure — request deletion of your data ("right to be forgotten").
• Restriction — ask us to limit how we use your data.
• Portability — receive your data in a machine-readable format.
• Object — object to processing based on legitimate interests.
• Withdraw consent — at any time for consent-based processing.

To exercise any of these rights, email us at privacy@visary.app. We will respond within 30 days. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).

We use strictly necessary cookies to maintain your session and authentication state. We also use analytics cookies (with your consent) to understand how users interact with the platform. You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings.

We implement industry-standard security measures including HTTPS encryption, hashed passwords, and access controls. No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, but we take all reasonable steps to protect your data.

Our infrastructure is primarily based in the UK and EU. Some service providers (e.g. Google Firebase) may process data in the United States under Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the ICO.

We may update this policy from time to time. We will notify you of significant changes by email or via a notice on our platform. The "last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision.
