Understanding website activity

We automatically count page loads and selected actions to understand which work interests visitors and how our campaigns perform. These totals record the page, action, broad referral source and campaign, without analytics cookies or identifiers that recognise individual browsers. They are not linked to your enquiries or applications.

If you allow optional analytics, we also use cookies containing random identifiers to recognise repeat visits from the same browser. This helps us understand navigation, time spent on pages, scrolling and contact-link clicks. Reports may include device category, browser type, referral source, campaign and approximate country. We do not request your precise location or store names, account identities or raw IP addresses in website analytics.

Your analytics choices

Optional analytics is off until you allow it. You can decline or withdraw permission below and continue using the whole website. Withdrawal removes the analytics identifiers from this browser and stops future optional measurement; existing records follow the retention period below. Automatic activity totals are separate from this choice. We respect Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control browser settings.

Enquiries and portfolio requests

We use the contact details and project information you submit to respond to your enquiry or portfolio request. A portfolio request includes your email and, where relevant, the project you were viewing. Enquiries may also include your phone number, project location, scope and timing. We check submissions for spam and misuse.

Submitting a request does not subscribe you to marketing. Email-update permission is separate and optional. We do not send enquiry or application details to advertising platforms. If you contact us through WhatsApp or your email app, that service’s privacy terms also apply.

Careers & Training

We use your name, contact details, work or training interests, answers, résumé and optional links to review your application. No account or analytics permission is required. Applying does not subscribe you to marketing.

Unsubmitted answers and your selected résumé are saved in your browser to help you resume the form. They are not uploaded until you submit. Use Clear saved draft to remove them, especially on a shared device. Clearing browser data may also remove your draft.

Documents and links undergo security checks before reviewers can open them. Checks or delivery issues may delay review. We may use AI to prepare a short summary from your answers and résumé for the team. Summaries can contain errors; the team reviews the application and makes recruitment decisions. We do not automatically score candidates or make hiring decisions.

Please include only information relevant to your application. Do not upload identity documents, financial or health records, passwords or private access credentials.

How long we keep information

• Website analytics: up to 90 days. The optional visit-session cookie expires after 30 minutes of inactivity.
• Enquiries and portfolio requests: up to one year.
• Unsubmitted application drafts: available in your browser for seven days, then removed when the form is next opened.
• Submitted applications and review copies: up to 180 days. Original uploads are removed after successful security checks, or after seven days if processing has not completed.

Expired records are removed during routine processing or review. Separate records needed for an ongoing client, employment or training relationship may be kept afterwards.

Access and service providers

Access to enquiries and applications is restricted to authorised JSM reviewers. Service providers support hosting, storage, security checks, assisted summaries and email delivery. They may process information outside Kenya. Hosting providers also handle technical connection information needed to operate and protect the website.
