Privacy & Confidentiality

At Elphe, we understand that searching for a job while employed is a delicate situation. Your privacy isn’t just a feature—it’s fundamental to how our platform works. We’ve designed our platform with multiple layers of protection to help you explore international opportunities confidently.

Why Privacy Matters

Looking for better opportunities while employed comes with real risks:

Professional Risks:

Current employer discovering your job search
Colleagues finding your profile on job platforms
HR departments monitoring your activity
Word spreading in tight-knit professional communities

Real Consequences:

Strained relationships with managers and teammates
Being passed over for promotions or critical projects
Uncomfortable conversations before you’re ready
Pressure to leave before securing your next role
Potential job loss before you have an offer

These concerns prevent many talented professionals from even looking. That’s why we built privacy protection into Elphe’s core architecture.

How Your Privacy is Protected

1. Restricted Company Access

Only verified international companies can access your identifying information.

This means:

Companies must register with a mobile number from a supported country outside India
Indian companies cannot complete the registration process
Only companies committed to international hiring gain access
Your profile is protected from casual local browsing

Registration barrier: The platform requires international mobile number verification, which prevents Indian-based entities from registering as companies.

2. No Personal Information on Public Pages

Your identifying information is never exposed on publicly accessible pages.

What this means:

Public search pages show only generic skill categories and anonymized profiles
No names, photos, email addresses, or phone numbers on public pages
Your identity remains protected from discovery

3. Tiered Access System

Only verified and paying companies can see your complete information.

Access Requirements:

Companies must register with a mobile number from a supported country outside India
Mobile verification confirms the company’s legitimacy
Indian mobile numbers cannot complete registration
Only companies with international presence can access the platform

4. Premium-Only Access to Full Details

Only premium (paying) employers can access your complete resume and contact information.

This ensures:

Only serious, committed employers get your full details
Casual browsing doesn’t expose your information
Companies must invest before reaching out to you
