Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

We collect information you provide directly — such as your name, email address, and review content — when you create an account, leave a review, or contact us. We also automatically collect usage data (pages visited, device type, IP address) through cookies and similar technologies.

2. How We Use Your Information

• To operate and improve the Ratings Nepal platform
• To display your reviews and public profile information
• To send service-related communications (e.g. password resets)
• To personalize your experience and show relevant content
• To detect and prevent fraud or misuse

3. Information Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We may share data with trusted service providers who help us operate the platform (hosting, analytics, email delivery). We may also disclose information when required by law.

4. Cookies

We use essential cookies to keep you logged in, functional cookies to remember your preferences, analytics cookies to understand usage, and advertising cookies (set by Google and other third parties) to serve and measure ads. You can manage cookie settings in your browser. See our Cookie Policy for details, and section 5 below for how to opt out of personalised ads.

5. Advertising

We use third-party advertising companies, including Google, to serve ads when you visit Ratings Nepal. These companies may use cookies and similar technologies to collect information about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you.

• Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on our site. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to our users based on their visit to Ratings Nepal and/or other sites on the internet.
• You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalised advertising at aboutads.info.
• For more information on how Google uses data when you use our site, see Google's Privacy & Terms.

6. Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data, including encryption in transit (TLS) and secure storage. However, no system is 100% secure and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Your Rights

You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data at any time by contacting us at privacy@ratingsnepal.com. You can also download a copy of your data or delete your account yourself from your account settings, where you can also choose which update emails you receive. Deleting your account removes your job applications, uploaded documents, claims and newsletter subscription; reviews you wrote remain on their listings but are no longer linked to you and are shown as “Former user”.

A CV you attach to a job application is deleted 90 days after the job closes or its application deadline passes. The business keeps the rest of your application.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. When we make significant changes, we will notify registered users by email and update the “Last updated” date above.
