Security and trust
engineered for private discovery
Privacy protections are enforced by system design and user-controlled consent mechanisms.
Private by default
Protected by design
Consent enforced
Privacy by design. Enforced by architecture.
Wigiwork does not rely on policies or promises to protect privacy. Privacy is enforced at the system level through architectural separation, encrypted identity storage, and explicit user consent at every stage of access.
- Employers never browse identities.
- Profiles are anonymous by default.
- Identity is revealed only with your approval.
Protection in every layer
Access control & consent
Visibility is opt-in by design. Employers only interact with anonymous profiles, and identity access is always user-approved.
- Anonymous by default — employers never browse identities
- Consent-gated access — identity requires explicit approval
- No real identity in search or previews — discovery stays anonymous
- Request-based visibility — access must be requested
- Audit trail — identity-access events are logged
Data protection & privacy
Professional data and identity data are protected through architectural separation, encryption, and strict handling rules.
- Encrypted identity data — stored separately from professional profiles
- Isolated storage layers — no shared access paths
- Anonymized previews — no personal signals exposed
- Anti-scraping defenses — Built to block automated harvesting
- No ads in profiles — analytics respect your choices
- Secure regional hosting — data handled by region
Infrastructure & controls
The platform is hardened through secure engineering practices, continuous monitoring, and real-time threat detection.
- Secure code reviews — ongoing internal audits
- Encrypted transport & storage — data protected in transit and at rest
- Strict authentication — least-privilege access enforced
- Real-time alerts — Rapid response to threats
- System-wide logging — accountability across all access
Compliance & standards
Privacy compliance is enforced through system rules, data minimization, and lifecycle controls — not policy alone.
- GDPR-aligned controls — strict PII separation and minimization
- CCPA / CPRA-aligned controls — consent-based access controls
- Privacy-led retention — data kept only as required
- Lifecycle controls — access revocation and deletion enforced
Private identity for a private job search.
Wigiwork is an anonymous market for tech professionals open to offers. Identity, profile visibility, and access are protected by consent-gated design while professionals run an anonymous job search across remote, hybrid, and onsite tech roles. Logged-out visitors and search engines only see your Fully Anonymous profile.
Profiles stay anonymous by default, with each tech professional's identity separated from searchable skills, salary, work experience, and technical capability. A profile snapshot gives hiring teams enough information to review fit, hire remote developers, find software engineers, and discover AI professionals through consent-gated access. Full profile stays hidden until approval — and contact details until you share them — reducing public exposure, searchable resumes, and automated scraping.
Maintain salary control and receive aligned opportunities through consent-based infrastructure.
Frequently
Asked
Questions
Wigiwork protects data by separating personal identity details from the searchable professional profile. Verified companies first review anonymous skills, experience, salary target, and role fit. Your verified email and approved profile details are shared only when Profile Access is granted through your approvals or chosen settings.
This structure reduces unnecessary exposure during discovery. It lets professionals in sensitive roles be discovered while controlling access to identity and deeper profile details.
No. Companies and approved agencies cannot search for candidates using a name, email address, phone number, or current or previous employer name.
Employer discovery is based on professional criteria such as skills, seniority, salary expectations, availability, location, and role fit. This prevents Wigiwork's employer search from being used to look for a specific person or employees of a named company.
Consent-based identity access means your direct identity details are not revealed through ordinary profile discovery. Verified companies can review your anonymous profile and Wigi Highlights, but identity access is provided only through controls you have authorized.
This may happen when you approve an Access Request or when a company meets the Automatic Access settings you have chosen. You can manage or revoke access through your Wigiwork controls.
Wigiwork reduces scraping risk by limiting exposed profile data, restricting employer access to verified organizations, and keeping identity behind user-controlled access. Employer discovery runs through a restricted Discovery Network—not an open resume database, social platform, or public job board. It's where professionals can be discovered while keeping their identity protected.
Because profile access is permission-based, the visible data surface is narrower than on public sites. Verification, limited access, and identity separation all help reduce the kinds of scraping and mass data collection common on open platforms.
Yes. Wigiwork is designed for professionals and employers that need more discretion, including fintech, cybersecurity, enterprise technology, and other regulated or sensitive technical roles. Privacy controls are built into the discovery process itself.
Anonymous profiles, company verification, identity separation, and consent-based access all support hiring in environments where confidentiality matters. This is relevant for both the professional and the employer side of the workflow.
