JobTek uses Stripe Payments Europe, Ltd. (1 Grand Canal Street Lower, Grand Canal Dock, Dublin 2, Ireland) to process subscription payments securely.

JobTek does not store full payment card details. Stripe may act as an independent Controller for certain payment and regulatory activities. JobTek receive only limited transaction metadata such as the payment amount, status, and reference ID.

For details on how Stripe processes personal data, see the Stripe Privacy Policy.

JobTek uses Twilio SendGrid, a trusted email delivery and messaging platform, to send and receive emails and deliver system alerts and notifications.

Message content, sender and recipient details, and delivery metadata are processed solely for the purpose of transmitting and managing these communications. For customer emails, you remain the data Controller and JobTek acts as your Processor.

Twilio processes message data only as necessary to deliver the communications and does not access or use it for any other purpose. For further information, see the Twilio Privacy Notice.

Messages and emails may also be sent from within the JobTek application as part of normal service operation; they are not limited to public enquiry endpoints.

 

​9. Meta Platforms Integration (Facebook, Instagram & WhatsApp)

JobTek integrates with services provided by Meta Platforms, Inc. (“Meta”), including Facebook Pages, Instagram (including Instagram Direct), and WhatsApp Business, to enable businesses to manage customer enquiries within JobTek.

 

Connecting a Meta Account

When a JobTek user connects a Facebook Page, Instagram account, or WhatsApp Business account, authentication is handled via Meta’s secure OAuth system. JobTek does not collect or store Meta account passwords.

During connection, JobTek may request permissions necessary to:

  • Access and list connected Pages or business accounts

  • Receive messages sent to those accounts

  • Send replies on behalf of the connected account

  • Access limited public profile information necessary to identify message participants

  • Manage webhook subscriptions and messaging metadata

 

Users may revoke JobTek’s access at any time through their JobTek account settings or via Meta’s business integration settings.

 

Data Received via Meta

Where messaging integrations are enabled, Meta may deliver data to JobTek via secure webhooks and APIs, including:

  • Message content and attachments

  • Message timestamps and delivery/read status

  • Platform-specific sender identifiers

  • Public display names associated with those identifiers

  • WhatsApp Business sender numbers and profile names (where applicable)

 

This information is imported into JobTek as part of an enquiry message record.

 

Use of Meta Data

Meta-sourced data is processed solely to:

  • Display customer communications within JobTek

  • Maintain enquiry history and activity logs

  • Enable authorised users to respond to messages

  • Associate platform identifiers with participant display names

  • Provide operational reporting and audit records

 

JobTek does not use Meta messaging data for advertising profiling or unrelated marketing purposes.

 

Sending Messages via Meta

When authorised users reply within JobTek, message content and any attachments are transmitted securely to Meta’s APIs for delivery through the relevant platform (Facebook, Instagram, Instagram Direct, or WhatsApp Business).

Meta’s processing of personal data is governed by Meta’s own privacy policy.

 

Data Deletion and Rights

If an individual has contacted a business via Facebook, Instagram, or WhatsApp and wishes to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal data stored within JobTek, they should contact the relevant business directly, as that business is the data controller for such communications.

 

Meta users may also manage their data via their Meta privacy settings.

 

For information on how Meta processes personal data, please refer to Meta’s Privacy Policy: https://www.facebook.com/privacy/policy/

 

10. Location and Address Search

We use Google Maps Platform for address lookup and autocomplete. Your input may be transmitted to Google. See Google’s privacy policy for details.

In addition, JobTek may collect or use GPS location data from your device to:

  • calculate estimated travel times (ETAs) to bookings,

  • assist in allocating bookings or resources based on location, and

  • record GPS coordinates and timestamps when certain actions are carried out (for example, starting or finishing a job) to provide audit logs and activity history.

This information allows users and administrators to view when and where actions occurred for legitimate operational and accountability purposes.

Location data is processed on the basis of legitimate interests and performance of contract, and is retained only as part of job or activity records in accordance with JobTek’s data retention policy. It is not used for continuous tracking or monitoring beyond these purposes.
 

11. Push Notifications

The JobTek mobile app uses Apple Push Notification Service (APNs) for iOS and Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) for Android to deliver real‑time alerts about jobs, bookings or enquiries.

Push notifications may include limited job or customer details necessary to identify the relevant update and are transmitted securely through Apple’s and Google’s systems.

JobTek does not store or control any data within those push services beyond what is necessary to transmit the notification. All job, booking, and customer information referenced by a notification is maintained within the JobTek Services under this Policy.
