Privacy Policy
Last updated: 8 August 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how SOVATalents (“SOVATalents”, “we”, “us” or “our”) collects, uses and protects your information when you visit sovatalents.com or contact us to hire talent. SOVATalents is a curated directory of certified Filipino freelancers operated by the team behind PinoySEO.ph and SOVA (School of Virtual Assistance), based in the Philippines. By using our website, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
Information we collect
We collect information in two ways:
- Information you provide to us. When you contact a talent, submit an enquiry, or fill in a form on our site, we collect the details you give us — typically your name, email address, company or website, and a description of the help you need.
- Information collected automatically. Like most websites, we automatically collect limited technical information through cookies and analytics tools — such as your IP address, browser type, device, pages viewed and how you arrived at our site.
How we use your information
We use the information we collect to:
- Respond to your enquiries and introduce you to suitable talent;
- Qualify your requirements and coordinate the hiring process;
- Operate, maintain and improve our website and services;
- Send you information related to a request you have made; and
- Comply with our legal obligations and protect our rights.
Information about our talent
The profiles listed on SOVATalents feature graduates of PinoySEO and SOVA who have agreed to be listed. Their profile details — such as name, skills, location and rate — are managed by our team on their behalf. If you are a listed graduate and wish to update or remove your information, please contact us using the details below.
How we share information
We do not sell your personal information. We only share it in limited circumstances:
- To make an introduction. When you ask to hire, we share the relevant details of your request with the talent we introduce you to.
- With service providers. We use trusted third-party services (for example website hosting, form and email tools, and analytics) that process data on our behalf.
- For legal reasons. We may disclose information where required by law or to protect our rights, users or the public.
Cookies and analytics
We use cookies and similar technologies to make the site work, remember your preferences, and understand how visitors use our pages. We use analytics tools such as Google Analytics and Google Search Console to measure traffic and improve our content. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings, though some features may not work as intended if you do.
Data retention
We keep your information only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy, to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes and enforce our agreements. When it is no longer needed, we take reasonable steps to delete or anonymise it.
Your rights
Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173) and other applicable laws, you have the right to access the personal information we hold about you, to ask us to correct or update it, to request its deletion, and to object to certain processing. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below and we will respond within a reasonable time.
Data security
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your information against loss, misuse and unauthorised access. However, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Third-party links
Our website may contain links to other sites, including PinoySEO.ph and SOVA.ph. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites, and we encourage you to review their own privacy policies.
Children’s privacy
Our services are intended for businesses and adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 18. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “last updated” date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
