### Why does yoummday need my contact information?

**1. To Create and Manage Your Account**

Your email address and name are required to create your Talent account and provide secure access to the platform.

We also use your email address to:

- Send important updates about your registration and verification
- Share relevant information about projects and the platform
- Help you reset your password if necessary

You can manage which emails you receive in the **"Subscriptions"** section of your profile.

**2. To contact you during account verification and recruiting**

Your phone number allows our verification team to contact you if:

- There are issues with your registration

- We want to support you during the verification and recruitment process

In some cases, we may also contact you regarding project opportunities that match your profile.

**3. To verify your eligibility for projects**

Your billing and work addresses are required for legal and operational reasons.

We use this information to:

- Verify your residential and work location
- Check whether you are eligible for specific projects
- Ensure compliance with legal requirements and client policies

Please note that some projects are only available in certain countries or regions.

**4. To Find Suitable Projects for You**

Your preferred language(s), experience, and contact details help us recommend projects that match your skills and availability.

For example, if you speak German and live in the EU, we may inform you about projects specifically seeking German-speaking talents in that region.
