Privacy Policy

1. Who we are

ARISE is an Erasmus+ funded project delivering an accessible, AI-powered employment support platform for people with disabilities. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal data when you use arise4all.eu.

2. What data we collect

When you create a profile, we collect the information you choose to provide, including your name, contact details, education, work experience, skills, and career preferences. Some fields, such as gender, citizenship status, and ethnicity, are explicitly optional and never affect your eligibility to use the platform.

3. Why we collect it

We use your data to help you build a professional profile, match you with inclusive employers, and provide personalised career guidance. We never use your data to infer or record information about disability status beyond what you choose to share directly.

4. Legal basis

We process your data on the basis of your explicit consent, given when you complete your profile and accept this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Service.

5. How long we keep your data

We retain your data for as long as your account remains active, or as required by the funding programme's reporting obligations. You may request deletion of your account and associated data at any time.

6. Your rights

Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), you have the right to access, correct, export, or delete your personal data, and to withdraw consent at any time. To exercise these rights, please contact us using the details below.
