Bushpass shows you a curated daily feed of live job ads and three illustrated atlases of regional employers. None of that data belongs to us. This page explains exactly where it comes from, how we collect it, and how to ask us to remove yours.
Factual data only: job titles, location, posting date, employer name, public contact details, and the source URL. We do not republish full job descriptions verbatim; the app stores them so the relevant snippet can be shown next to the live source link, and every listing is one click away from the original page on the source site.
For the farm / mine / roadhouse atlases, we collect publicly available employer information from government datasets, industry directories, and public business registries: name, type, region/state, postcode, the public phone or email published by the business, and a public website link if one exists. We do not collect personal contact details of individuals.
Most listings are gathered automatically by polite, low-frequency crawlers, with a
handful of source-specific adapters that respect each site's robots.txt
and rate limits. The crawler identifies itself in every request with a fixed,
attributable user-agent string so site operators can spot us in their logs and
reach us directly:
Bushpass-Bot/1.0 (+https://bushpass.com/about-scraping; bot@bushpass.com)
A small subset of seed data (notably regional employer directories) was imported from public PDF documents or government data releases. Each imported record keeps a provenance tag so we can recheck or retract anything that's no longer current.
Job titles, locations, dates, and the existence of a posting at a given source URL are facts. Facts are not copyrightable under Australian or international copyright law. The original wording of the description, the employer's logo, and the site's layout are protected — we don't republish those.
Every listing in Bushpass links back to the original source. We are explicitly not a substitute for the source site — we're an organised, searchable index across many sources, the same model used by news aggregators and job-search meta-engines.
If you operate a site we crawl, or your business appears in one of the atlases and you'd like to be removed (or your details updated), email:
Tell us which URL, business name, or listing you'd like removed. We aim to action takedown requests within 48 hours, and we block our crawler from re-fetching the source so the removal sticks across future polling cycles.
For copyright complaints (alleging we reproduced protected expression rather than facts), please reference the URL of the page on bushpass.com and the URL of the original work, and we'll respond on the same 48-hour clock.
The list below covers the public job boards, government feeds, and industry directories we presently index. The set evolves as we add coverage and retire stale sources; reach out at the takedown address above for the current detailed list including last-fetched timestamps.
We’re a small Australian operator and we try to be the kind of crawler we'd want hitting our own site: identifiable, slow, polite, and quick to back off when asked.
