Information We Collect

When you register on Database™, we collect your name, email, password, and account type (freelancer or agency), along with any additional information you choose to include in your profile settings. We also collect details related to your project submissions, including titles, descriptions, and media assets. In addition, we collect data about your usage of the platform such as your interactions, preferences, and behavior patterns. Technical data including IP address, device type, browser information, and cookie data may also be collected to support platform functionality and user experience personalization.

How We Use Your Information

Your information is used to operate and maintain the platform, process and moderate project submissions, and display approved projects publicly. We use the data to personalize your experience, including tailored content in your feed and intelligent search results. It also allows us to create your public portfolio once a submission is approved and list your profile in the public Directory. These uses are essential to deliver a curated and relevant user experience.

Sharing of Information

Once a project submission is approved, your user profile and portfolio become publicly visible to all users of the platform. Approved users are also featured in the public Directory. While we never sell or rent your personal data to third parties, we may share anonymized, aggregated information for internal analysis, research, or performance monitoring purposes.

You have the right to access, edit, or delete your personal information. You can update your profile or modify any unapproved submissions at any time. If you wish to request data deletion or inquire about your stored data, you can contact us directly at info@the-database.co

We apply appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal information. However, it is important to understand that no digital storage system is entirely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute protection from breaches or unauthorized access.

Cookies

We use cookies to enhance your experience on Database™. These help us remember your preferences, improve performance, and offer personalized content. You may choose to manage or disable cookies through your browser settings.
