Privacy policy

Who we are

AccountingTalent.in is operated by Martin Casey trading as Kaya Virtual (ABN 84 263 783 878), Australia. We are not a recruitment agency or an employer, and we are not a party to any employment agreement you enter into.

You can reach us at contact@accountingtalent.in.

What we collect

When you apply, we collect the answers you give us: your name, email address, WhatsApp number, city, and optionally a LinkedIn URL. We also collect your professional details: qualification, years of experience, US-client experience, role, software skills, US tax forms prepared, salary expectation, availability, working hours, notice period, and whether you have a working home setup.

We record how you heard about us, and if an advertisement brought you here, the campaign it came from.

Payments and renewals. When you buy a plan, we store your plan, your renewal dates and the reference numbers Stripe gives us for your customer record, subscription and invoices. We do not see or store your full card number or UPI details; Stripe and Link handle these.

Emails about your plan. We send you emails needed to run your membership, such as payment receipts, renewal reminders and failed-payment notices. We send these even if you have unsubscribed from job alerts or other emails.

Signing in with Google or LinkedIn

You can sign in with your Google or LinkedIn account instead of an emailed code. If you do, Google or LinkedIn shares your name, email address and profile photo with us. We use your email address to find your existing account or create a new one, and we store your name with your account. If your Google or LinkedIn email matches an account you already have with us, both sign-in methods lead to that same account. We never see your Google or LinkedIn password, and we don’t receive your contacts, connections or posts. We will never post anything on your behalf. Sign-in is handled for us by our authentication provider, Supabase. You can remove our access at any time in your Google Account or LinkedIn settings, and you can still sign in with an emailed code afterwards. If you delete your AccountingTalent.in account, we delete the sign-in details we hold.

Your talent profile (optional)

If you choose to, you can add more to your profile for freelance, part-time or short-task work: your name, what you do best, the accounting standards you know, your hours and availability, an optional hourly rate, a one-line headline, your LinkedIn profile link, and a membership number for each professional qualification you hold (for example ICAI, ACCA, a US state board or ICMAI). We never ask for or store ID documents, Aadhaar or PAN.

Who sees it. Only you and our team. No employer, firm or other member can see any of it. Your profile shows you a preview of what a firm would see, but nobody else sees that card.

How we check qualifications. Our team looks up the membership number you give us on the professional body's public register and compares the name there with the name on your profile. That is why our team sees your name, your membership numbers and your LinkedIn link. We use them only to check your profile, and we record whether each qualification was verified and when.

"Tell me when firms join". If you switch this on, we record that you'd like an email and when you switched it on. It shares nothing with anyone. If firms can later see profiles, we'll email you once to ask whether you want to show yours; nothing is shown unless you agree then. You can switch it off at any time.

Deleting it. "Remove freelance details" deletes this part of your profile, including your membership numbers and the switch. "Delete my profile" deletes this part and your job-matching answers. If you ask us to delete your account, we delete all of it. We keep a note of our checks (the qualification type, the result and the date) linked only to an account number, never to your name or membership number; once your account is deleted, that number no longer leads to anyone.

We keep your talent profile until you delete it or your account.

Why we collect it

We use your email and WhatsApp number to reach you about the skills assessment.

Who we share it with

We do not sell your data. We do not share it with advertisers, data brokers, or third-party recruiters.

We use the Meta Pixel to measure the effectiveness of our advertising. It records that a visit or application happened, not the contents of your application.

Where your data is held

Your data is stored on servers operated by our infrastructure providers, which may be located outside India, including in the United States and Europe. By applying you consent to this transfer.

How long we keep it

We keep your profile for as long as you want to be listed.

If you ask us to delete your profile, we delete it.

Your choices

Email contact@accountingtalent.in and we will show you what we hold about you, correct anything wrong, or delete your profile entirely. There is no exit interview and no penalty. We aim to respond within 30 days.

You can ask us to delete your details at any time.
