Bine handles personal information to run the product, improve the experience, and keep the service trustworthy.

This Privacy Policy explains how Bine collects, uses, shares, and protects personal information when you use the Bine website, waitlist forms, mobile application, and related services.

This policy applies to information collected directly from you, automatically through your use of the service, and from other sources you choose to connect or upload through Bine.

The information we collect depends on how you use Bine and which features you choose to use.

• Contact and account information, such as your name, email address, phone number, and other identifiers you provide.
• Career and profile information, such as your resume or CV, work history, education, skills, interests, profile details, and preferences.
• Content and communications, such as messages, introductions, support requests, survey responses, and information you submit through forms or chats.
• Usage and technical information, such as IP address, browser type, device information, pages viewed, timestamps, referral information, and service logs.
• Information from integrations or uploads, if Bine offers those features and you choose to use them.

We use personal information to provide, operate, and improve Bine.

• Create and maintain your account, profile, and onboarding flow.
• Convert resume and profile data into a discovery-ready experience.
• Facilitate matching, introductions, conversations, and other service features.
• Send service updates, support responses, product notices, and early-access communications.
• Protect the service, detect abuse or fraud, troubleshoot issues, and enforce our terms and policies.
• Analyze usage trends and improve product quality, relevance, safety, and performance.
• Comply with legal obligations and respond to lawful requests.

We do not sell your personal information. We may share information in the following circumstances:

• With other users or participants in the service when your profile, resume-derived details, or communications are part of the core product experience.
• With vendors and service providers that help us host, secure, support, analyze, or operate Bine.
• If required to comply with law, regulation, legal process, or enforceable governmental request.
• To protect the rights, safety, security, and integrity of Bine, our users, or the public.
• As part of a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, sale of assets, or similar business transaction.

We retain personal information for as long as needed to provide the service, maintain business and legal records, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and improve safety and reliability.

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information, the nature of your relationship with Bine, and our legal obligations.

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, update, delete, or restrict the use of your personal information.

You may also opt out of non-essential promotional communications by using the unsubscribe method in those messages. Service and account-related communications may still be sent when necessary.

• You can choose whether to provide optional profile, resume, or communication details, but some features may not work without them.
• You can request review, correction, or deletion of your information where applicable.
• If local law gives you additional privacy rights, we will handle qualifying requests in accordance with that law.

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Bine may process and store information in countries other than the one where you live. Where required, we will use appropriate safeguards for cross-border data transfers.

Bine is not intended for children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If we learn that we have collected such information, we will take appropriate steps to delete it.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will post the updated version here and update the last updated date above. Material changes may also be communicated through the service when appropriate.

For privacy questions or requests related to Bine, please use the contact method made available through the Bine website or app.

If you want this policy to include a dedicated legal entity name, mailing address, or privacy inbox before launch, those details should be added here before publishing publicly.
