Privacy Policy

WorkBase PH is owned and operated by Curators Marketplace, a DTI and BIR-registered business in the Philippines (DTI Business Name No. 8077722). Curators Marketplace is responsible for the personal information collected through workbaseph.com.

For any privacy question or request, email hello@workbaseph.com.

We collect what we need to run the Platform:

• Account details — your name, email address, and password. Passwords are stored only in scrambled (hashed) form, so we cannot see them. If you sign in with Google, Google shares your name, email address, and profile photo with us.
• Specialist profiles — photo, bio, skills, location, job title, rate range, availability, education, work history, resume, certifications or reference letters, your "Get to Know Me" video or audio introduction, computer specifications, internet speed test results, and anything else you add.
• Employer accounts — company name, website, job posts, and the business documents you submit for verification.
• Payments — job-post payments are processed by PayPal, and Done-For-You Hiring and Managed Hire invoices are paid through PayPal. We receive a record of each payment (amount, date, and the PayPal order or invoice details, such as the payer’s name and reference). We never receive or store your full card number.
• Messages and forms — messages sent through the Platform, interview bookings, and forms you fill in, such as Done-For-You Hiring requests.
• Visit and device information — the pages you visit, the website or ad that brought you here, your browser type, and your IP address.

• To create and run your account.
• To match Specialists with job posts and show Employers relevant candidates.
• To show Specialist profiles, including video and audio introductions, to Employers on the Platform.
• To process payments and keep payment records.
• To review Employer verification documents.
• To schedule interviews and deliver messages.
• To send emails about your account, applications, job posts, and payments.
• To prevent fraud, spam, and misuse of the Platform.
• To understand how the site is used, improve it, and measure our advertising.

Some features use a third-party AI service: helping write job descriptions and cover letters, reading resumes and screenshots of computer specs, and summarizing how a candidate fits a role. We send only what each task needs. For candidate fit summaries, the candidate’s name and contact details are never sent.

Employers. Registered Employers can see Specialist profiles on the Platform, including photos, resumes, and "Get to Know Me" video or audio introductions, so they can evaluate candidates. Employers with an active $29 job post can also see contact details. By uploading an introduction, Specialists agree to it being shared with Employers for this purpose.

Employer confidentiality. Employers must treat applicant videos as confidential and may not download, record, or share them outside the Platform, in line with National Privacy Commission (NPC) guidelines.

Our marketing. We may feature excerpts of Specialist profiles in our own marketing, such as our website and social media. Before any such use, we blur or obscure the Specialist’s face and remove all contact details, including email address, phone number, home address, and social media or messaging handles. Specialists can ask us to take down any marketing material at any time by emailing hello@workbaseph.com. See Section 13c of our Terms of Service for details.

Verification documents. Employer verification documents are used only to review the business. We never show them to other users or share them with third parties, apart from the storage provider that holds them for us.

We do not sell your personal information. We may disclose information when the law requires it, for example in response to a valid order from a court or government agency.

We use outside companies to run parts of the Platform: website hosting and data storage, email delivery, payment processing (PayPal and Wise), video interviews, AI features, analytics and advertising, and review invitations. Each one receives only the information it needs to do its job for us.

Some of these companies are based outside the Philippines, so your information may be processed in other countries. Each provider handles it under its own privacy and security terms.

We use cookies and similar browser storage to keep you signed in, remember which website or ad brought you here, and measure how the site and our ads perform. Our pages use Google Analytics and the Meta Pixel.

Visitors in the UK and EU see a cookie banner. For them, ad and analytics cookies stay off unless they choose Accept, and the site works the same either way. Anyone can also block or delete cookies in their browser settings.

Specialists may add a "Get to Know Me" video or audio introduction. By submitting one, you allow WorkBase PH to process it, store it securely, and share it with Employers on the Platform so they can evaluate your applications.

Video recordings are sensitive personal information under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012. You can ask us to delete your introduction at any time by emailing hello@workbaseph.com.

WorkBase PH uses industry-standard encryption to protect your data, including HTTPS on every page. Passwords are stored in hashed form, and uploaded files are kept in secure storage.

No system is perfectly secure. We are not liable for security breaches caused by user negligence, including but not limited to sharing passwords or using insecure devices. If you think someone has accessed your account without permission, email hello@workbaseph.com right away.

We keep your information while your account is open and for as long as we need it to provide the Platform. We keep payment records for as long as tax and accounting laws require.

When you ask us to delete your account, we remove your profile from the Platform and delete or anonymize your personal information, except records we must keep by law or to resolve a dispute.

Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012, you have the right to:

• Be told how your information is collected and used (this policy)
• Access the personal information we hold about you
• Correct information that is wrong or out of date
• Object to processing, or withdraw your consent
• Ask us to delete or block your information
• Get a copy of your information in a common electronic format
• File a complaint with the National Privacy Commission

To use any of these rights, email hello@workbaseph.com from the email address on your account.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes take effect once the updated version is posted on this page, and the date below shows when it last changed. Please check this page periodically.
