Upcoming privacy policy change

Written by The Trade Me team in General and Jobs at 4:30pm, Fri 9 Dec 2016

On 23 December 2016 we’re planning on making an update to our privacy policy to allow us to build some cool new features in Trade Me Jobs.

This change is to further explain how we use some of the data you upload when applying for jobs.

When uploading your CV during a job application or adding it to CVs and documents we will soon start running scanning software over it and use that data to create a Trade Jobs member profile. Don’t worry – none of our staff will read your CVs. And we won’t share any of the information with any third parties without your explicit permission. The software will not scan any of your existing CVs, or any of the documents or cover letters you save. It will only scan the CVs you save after 23 December 2016. More...

Site outage

Written by The Trade Me team in General at 4:30pm, Wed 23 Nov 2016

Unfortunately we had some site issues between 3.10pm and 3.31pm and again between 3.57pm and 4.13pm today which meant Trade Me was down. We've fixed the issue and we're back up online.

We're sorry for any inconvenience and to make sure no listings were affected, we've extended all auctions set to close today between 3.10pm and 4.30pm by one hour.

If you’re having any trouble as a result of this outage, please get in touch so we can help you out.
