3 — Verification & anti-fraud rules

Email verification: required. Prefer college email (if available) for faster auto-verification.

Admin approval: for accounts without college email — admin will review uploaded proof (scanned ID / graduation certificate).

2FA (optional): for admins and election managers.

One-person-one-account: enforce by unique email + phone; detect duplicates via name + batch + roll.

Rate-limiting & CAPTCHA: for registrations and job postings to prevent spam.

Moderation queue: for job posts, galleries, and public announcements (flagging system for users).



---

4 — Roles & permissions

Super Admin: full control (site config, users, data export).

Admin / EC member: approve members, moderate content, create news/events.

Moderator: manage galleries, comments, flag handling.

Employer / Alumni (verified): post jobs, post event, post news (if allowed).

Guest / Public: view public pages, see limited directory (or preview cards; full details only to verified users).



---

5 — Security, privacy & legal

SSL/TLS mandatory.

Secure password rules + bcrypt or Argon2 storage.

Privacy policy + terms of use pages. Include explicit consent for storing personal data and for mailing lists.

Data export/erase request handling (GDPR-style; India does not yet have a full law but still follow best practices).

Backup & restore (daily or weekly).

Regular software updates and dependency checks.

PCI-compliance if accepting payments (use hosted gateways like Stripe / Razorpay to reduce scope).



---

6 — Technical stack options (pick one)

Modern custom stack (recommended for scale & flexibility)

Frontend: React (or [login to view URL]) — responsive, SEO-friendly.

Backend: Node.js (Express / NestJS) or Django (Python).

Database: PostgreSQL.

File storage: AWS S3 or equivalent (or DigitalOcean Spaces).

Auth: JWT with refresh tokens, OAuth social login (Google, Facebook, LinkedIn).

Hosting: Vercel / Netlify (frontend) + Render / DigitalOcean / AWS (backend).


Faster + lower cost (no-code / CMS)

WordPress with MemberPress / BuddyBoss / WP Job Manager + Cloud hosting. Good for quick rollouts and non-technical admins.


Progressive Web App (PWA) for mobile experience (optional).

11 — Tips for hiring & project success

Ask for code repo access & regular commits.

Request a staging URL early so you can test features while they build.

Insist on data export (CSV) from day one.

Keep one person as single point-of-contact for quicker approvals." (client-provided description)
