Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 9, 2026

Who is responsible

gig2.me is a social network for gig economy workers associated with Cook Technology Corp. Bill Cook, United States of America, is the data controller responsible for the personal data handled by gig2.me. For privacy questions and requests, email website@gig2.me or use our contact form.

Information we collect and why

We process information you provide when creating and using an account, including your username, contact email, profile details, posts, uploaded media, messages, and support requests. We use this information to operate your account, provide the social-network features you choose, display your content to its intended audience, respond to requests, and administer and protect the service.

When you choose Facebook Login, Meta provides the basic profile information permitted by public_profile, such as your Facebook user ID, name and profile picture, and your email address when available under the email permission. We use this data to authenticate you, create or identify your gig2.me account, and personalize your account profile. Facebook Login is optional. These permissions do not grant gig2.me access to your private Facebook messages or permission to post to Facebook on your behalf.

The site and its hosting service also process technical information, such as IP addresses, browser and device information, access times, and server logs, to deliver pages, diagnose problems, and prevent spam, fraud and abuse. Cookies support sign-in sessions and site preferences. You can manage cookies through your browser; blocking them may affect sign-in and other features.

Who can receive information

Information you choose to publish, including profile details and public posts, can be viewed by others. Messages are processed to deliver them to their recipients. HostGator provides the website hosting and related storage and technical services and can process site data, including Facebook login data, on our behalf to provide those services. Authorized site administrators process data as needed to operate and support gig2.me. Facebook Login also involves Meta's processing under its own privacy policy.

We may disclose information when legally required. Requests from public authorities are reviewed for legality; unlawful requests may be challenged; any disclosure is limited to the information necessary; and requests and responses are documented.

The hosting location for gig2.me is Phoenix, United States. HostGator/Newfold also identifies support processing in India and the Philippines in its privacy notice. Processing may occur outside your country.

Retention and security

We retain account information and content while needed to provide your account and the features you use. Retention also depends on security and abuse-prevention needs, unresolved disputes, and applicable legal obligations. When information is no longer needed, it is deleted or anonymized. The site uses HTTPS to protect data in transit.

Your choices and data deletion

You can update profile information through your account settings. To request access, correction, a copy of your information, or deletion of your account and associated data, email website@gig2.me or use https://gig2.me/contact-us. For Facebook data deletion, use the subject Facebook data deletion request and include your gig2.me username or profile URL and the email associated with the account. Do not send your password. We may ask for information needed to verify account ownership before processing a request.

You can remove gig2.me from Facebook's Apps and Websites settings to stop future access through Facebook Login. Removing the connection does not itself delete information already held by gig2.me; use the deletion-request process above for that. Information may be retained where required by law or necessary to address security incidents or disputes. Depending on your location, you may also have rights to object to or restrict processing, withdraw consent, or complain to your data-protection authority. Contact us to exercise applicable rights.

Other websites and policy changes

Links, advertisements and embedded content may lead to services with their own privacy practices. This policy applies to gig2.me. Updates to this policy will be posted here with a revised date.
