Privacy Policy

expathjobs.com is an independent, free tool. This page explains what data we collect and why — in plain language, not legal boilerplate.

Site analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand how many people visit the site and which pages they use — for example, how many people use the verify tool versus browse the directory. This collects general information like your approximate location (city level, from your IP address), device/browser type, and which pages you visit. Google Analytics uses cookies to do this. We do not use this data to identify individual visitors.

You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking across all websites using Google's browser opt-out add-on.

Searches

You don't need an account to use this site, and we don't ask for your name, phone number, or any ID. When you check an agency, the licence number, name, or phone number you type is sent to our server to look it up. We don't save these searches. Your IP address is held in memory for up to two minutes only to stop automated abuse, and is not stored. Because a search appears in the page address (for example /verify?q=1712), Google Analytics may record it along with the page visit.

Cookies

We set one cookie of our own, NEXT_LOCALE, to remember the language you chose (Sinhala, Tamil, or English). Google Analytics sets its own cookies, described above.

Agency directory data

Agency names, licence numbers, licensee names, addresses, and contact details shown in the directory come from the Sri Lanka Bureau of Foreign Employment's public register. We show only what SLBFE publishes, and when SLBFE removes something, it disappears from this site at our next check.

What we don't do

We don't sell data. We don't use tracking for advertising purposes.
