Careers and legal

Open roles

Each role is a JSON file in src/content/roles/. The careers page lists open roles in order, each one expandable with its responsibilities, requirements and an “Apply” link that opens an email to site.email with the role in the subject line.

src/content/roles/motion-designer.json

{
  "title": "Motion Designer",
  "team": "Motion",
  "location": "Remote (Europe)",
  "type": "Freelance, 3 days a week",
  "salary": "£420 to £520 a day",
  "summary": "Help us define how brands move, from interface animation to launch films.",
  "responsibilities": ["Write motion guidelines for identity systems"],
  "requirements": ["A reel with brand and interface work"],
  "order": 3,
  "open": true
}

Field	Notes
title, team	Shown in the role’s header
location, type	Free text: “Remote (Europe)”, “Full time”, “Freelance, 3 days a week”
salary	Optional. Publishing a range gets you better applicants
summary	One sentence, visible before the role is opened
responsibilities, requirements	Lists, shown when the role is opened
order	Lower comes first
open	Set to false to hide a role without deleting it

With no open roles, the page shows an empty state inviting speculative applications, so it never looks abandoned. To remove careers altogether, delete src/pages/[...lang]/careers.astro and its entry in footerNav.

Check the job structured data

careers.astro publishes each role as JobPosting data for Google’s job search. Two values in it are written for the demo studio: datePosted and addressCountry ('GB'). Update both when you publish real roles.

Privacy policy and imprint

/privacy and /imprint are Markdown files in src/content/legal/, with a translation per language in de/ and id/.

This policy explains how Swift Studio Ltd ("we") handles personal data on this website.

## Who is responsible

…

The page shows “Last updated” from updated, a note that the text is a template, and the Markdown in .prose-swift typography.

These are templates

The demo texts describe a UK studio with a German imprint. They are a starting point, not legal advice. Rewrite them for your business and have them checked for the countries you work in. When you have, delete the paragraph that shows dict.legal.notice in [legal].astro.

Germany, Austria and Switzerland require an imprint (Impressum) on business websites. Elsewhere you can remove it: delete imprint.md in every language, remove 'imprint' from the slugs in src/pages/[...lang]/[legal].astro and from legalNav in site.ts.

To add a page such as /terms, see Legal pages.
