Confidentiality

Privacy

MineMatch365 is a free, non-commercial service. This page is how we meet the Australian Privacy Principles in plain language: we tell you what we collect, why, and how to reach us.

Who runs this

The operator is MineMatch365. There is no other organisation named on this service. Privacy questions, access requests, corrections and deletion requests go to minematch365@proton.me.

What we collect

To open a desk we collect an email address and a password. The password is stored as a hash, not as the password you typed. If you sign in with Google or X, we receive the identity those services share, usually a name and an email.

Profile details, all optional until you choose to add them, can include a company name, a private contact email, a phone number, discipline, open-cut or underground, roster, commodities, locations, education, tickets, software, an experience band, a salary band in $10,000 steps, and companies you want blocked. We do not ask for a photo or a current employer on the public card, and we do not store an exact salary or an exact year count for display.

Why

We collect this only to run the desk: to let you sign in, to show an anonymous card to approved recruiters, to send intro requests, and to swap contact details if a mining professional says yes. We do not use it for advertising, and we never sell it.

What recruiters see

Until you approve an intro, an approved recruiter sees a public ID (MM-XXXX) and the skills card, including bands rather than exact figures. No name, no email, no phone. After you approve, both sides receive the contact details they each supplied.

What you see first

Before you answer, you see the recruiter’s company and the role, plus the brief they sent. Their email and phone stay hidden until you say yes.

How it is stored and secured

Account and profile data sit in a private database used only for this service. Sign-in is handled by the app’s own account system. Access to your desk is limited to your signed-in session. We don’t publish the database, and we don’t give other companies a copy of it. Recruiters who have not been approved cannot search the pool.

How long we keep it

We keep your email, password hash and profile while the account is open, because the service needs them to work. From Account on your desk, choose Delete my account and confirm. That removes the sign-in, the desk, your card and intros. If you only leave the desk, the sign-in stays. Email minematch365@proton.me from the address on the account if you still need something removed. If the service stops, email the same address and we will delete what we still hold or tell you what remains.

Access, correction and deletion

You can update or unpublish your card from the desk, and you can delete your whole account from Account on your desk after a confirmation step. Under the Australian Privacy Principles you can also ask for a copy of the personal information we hold, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it. Email minematch365@proton.me. We aim to answer within a few days.

Intros, decline and blocking

A declined intro is closed. We do not pass your identity on, and we do not keep a public mark that you said no. You can list companies — including your current employer — that must never see your card. Those desks are left out of search and cannot send you an intro. A rare combination of registration, state and commodity can still make someone recognisable. Leave off anything that would only be you.
