What Information About Me Is Collected and Stored?

We collect two basic types of information from you in conjunction with your use of the Site, Personal Information and Non-Personal Information. “Personal Information” is information that you may supply to us and can individually identify you, including your name, e-mail address, telephone number, postal address, credit card, billing and contact information, i.e., when you register for an account on the Site, upload content or participate in a community. “Non-Personal Information” is any information that does not personally identify you but may include tracking and usage information about your location, demographics, use of the Site and the Internet.

Personal Information

As a general matter, you can browse the Site without submitting your Personal Information to us. However, there are a number of circumstances in which you may supply us with your Personal Information. The following lists the most common ways in which we may collect your Personal Information:

  • Registration for an account on the Site

  • Creating your profile

  • Uploading your resume, cover letters or other materials

  • Applying for a posted job

  • Participating in interactive services, including any materials submitted in connection with a training module

  • Signing up to receive e-mail newsletters from us

  • Requesting customer service or other assistance

  • Participating in surveys, panels, or market research

  • Participating in special events and promotions

  • Entry in contests or sweepstakes

  • Submission of user generated content on any part of the Site that permits it

When you apply for a job through the Site or upload your resume to our resume database, employers will have access to that content. We have no control over the retention or use of your resume or profile by employers or third parties.

Collection of Personal Information From Social Media Sites

When you interact with any Site page or account on a social media platform, such as Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Tumblr, YouTube, or Pinterest, or use a social media feature such as Facebook’s “Like” button, we may collect the Personal or Non-Personal Information including your IP address, account ID or “handle.” However, we will comply with the privacy policies of the corresponding social media platform and will only collect and store such Personal Information that we are permitted to collect by these social media platforms.

Non-Personal Information

In addition, when you interact with the Site, our servers may keep an activity log of Non-Personal Information. Generally, we collect and store the following categories of Non-Personal Information:

  • Demographic data such as age, gender and five digit zip code as part of collecting personal information

  • Device information about your computer, mobile device, or other device that you use to access the Site. This information may include IP address, geolocation information, unique device identifiers, browser type, browser language and other transactional information

  • Usage information about your use of the Site. This information includes a reading history of the pages you view. We use this information to provide you with a more customized experience on the Site

  • Additional “traffic data” such as time of access, date of access, software crash reports, session identification number, access times and referring website addresses

  • Your search terms and search results

  • Other information regarding our users' use of the Site

Collection of Your Source IP Address/Location Information

We collect and store your device's source IP address which may disclose the location of your device at the time you access the Site. Advertisements and certain content may be directed to you as a result of this data.

In addition, in some cases the Site can deliver content based on your current location if you choose to enable that feature. If you enable that feature, your current location will be stored locally on your device which will be used by the Site to serve you certain content tied to your location. If you elect to have your location-based searches saved to your history, we will store such information on our servers.

Collection of Personal and Non-Personal Information From Other Sources

We also may collect and store information about you that we receive from other sources to, among other things, enable us to update and correct the information contained in our database and to better customize your experience on the Site.

Use of Cookies, Flash Cookies and Web Beacons

Like many websites, we use “cookies”, which are small text files that are stored on your computer or equipment when you visit certain online pages that record your preferences and actions. We use cookies to track use of our Site and online services. We may also use cookies to monitor traffic, improve the Site and make it easier for and/or relevant to your use. You may occasionally get cookies from companies advertising on our behalf. We do not control those cookies and they are not subject to this cookie policy.

You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but, if you prefer, you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies. For more information on cookies and how to disable them, you can consult the information provided by the Interactive Advertising Bureau at www.allaboutcookies.org.

We may also use web beacons or flash cookies. A web beacon or flash cookie (also known as “action tags”, “tracer tags”, or “single-pixel gifs”) is an invisible graphic on a web page that is programmed only to collect Non-Personal Information about your use of a given website. We do not collect Personal Information, such as names, e-mail addresses and phone numbers through such web beacons without your express permission.

We may work with third-party advertising companies who also may utilize flash or enhanced cookies or web beacons to better provide advertisements about goods and services that may be of interest to you. These partners do not use this technology to collect Personal Information about you or have access to or use your name, address, e-mail address, telephone number or other information from us. They may, however, anonymously track your Internet usage across other websites in their networks beyond this Site. To learn more about the use of this information or to choose not to have this information used by our third-party advertising partners by opting out please visit the Network Advertising Initiative by clicking http://www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp.

What Steps Are Taken To Keep Personal Information Secure?

We are concerned about ensuring the security of your Personal Information. Personal Information collected by our Site is stored in a reasonably secure operating environment that is not available to the public. Please understand, however, that while we use commercially reasonable efforts to safeguard your Personal Information once we receive it, no security is foolproof. The safeguards we use reflect, in a commercially reasonable manner, the nature of the information you have supplied to us and the nature and scope of our business.

Your Obligations to Keep Your Access Rights Secure

You promise to: (a) provide true, accurate, current and complete information about yourself and your business as prompted by a registration form (such information being the “Registration Data”) and (b) maintain and promptly update the Registration Data to keep it true, accurate, current and complete. If you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, or we have reasonable grounds to suspect that such information is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, we have the right to suspend or terminate your account and refuse any and all current or future use of the Site (or any portion thereof). You are entirely responsible for the security and confidentiality of your password and account. Furthermore, you are entirely responsible for any and all activities that occur under your account. You agree to immediately notify us of any unauthorized use of your account or any other breach of security of which you become aware. You are responsible for taking precautions and providing security measures best suited for your situation and the intended use of the registration and Site.

What Happens When I Link To or From Another Website?

The Site may contain links to other websites not operated by us. Please be advised that the practices described in this Privacy Policy do not apply to information gathered through other websites. We are not responsible for the actions and privacy policies of third parties and other websites.

What About Contests and Sweepstakes?

When we run a contest or sweepstakes relating to our Site, it will be accompanied by a set of rules. The rules for each contest/sweepstakes will specify how the information gathered from you for entry will be used and disclosed, if it is different than as described in this Privacy Policy. In conjunction with your entry in such contest or sweepstakes, Personal Information will be collected only if you voluntarily submit it.

Public Areas, Chat Rooms, Reviews, and Community Areas

Please remember that any information you share in public areas, such as message boards or feedback sections, becomes public and anyone may take and use that information. Please be careful about what you disclose and do not post any Personal Information that you expect to keep private. Please consult the applicable guidelines, if any, for use of our chat rooms and other community areas for more information.

Access To and Correcting Information

You may review and change your Personal Information by logging into the Site and accessing your profile. You may also remove your resume or delete your account at any time. If you delete your account, we will, for a period of time as determined by us, retain an archival copy of your Personal Information for its records and for audit purposes but the copy will not be accessible online.

Governing Law

The Site is published in the United States of America. We attempt to protect the Personal Information of all users of our Site and we attempt to comply with local data protection and consumer rights laws to the extent they may apply to the services provided by us. If you are uncertain whether this Privacy Policy conflicts with the applicable local privacy laws where you are located, you should not submit your Personal Information through the Site.

Assignment

We may change our ownership or corporate organization while providing the Site and services. We may also sell certain assets associated with the Site. As a result, please be aware that in such event we may transfer some or all of your information to a company acquiring all or part of our assets or to another company with which we have merged. Under such circumstances we would, to the extent possible, require the acquiring party to follow the practices described in this Privacy Policy, as it may be amended from time to time. Nevertheless, we cannot promise that an acquiring company or the merged company will have the same privacy practices or treat your information the same as described in this Privacy Policy.

Notice to Users Outside the United States of America

If you are located outside the United States of America, you should be aware that your Personal Information will be transferred to the United States of America, the laws of which may be deemed by your country to have inadequate data protection. If you are located in a country outside the United States of America and you voluntarily submit Personal Information to us, you thereby consent to the general use of such information as provided in this Privacy Policy and to the transfer of that information to, and/or storage of that information in, the United States of America.

Changes to This Policy

As our Site continues to develop, we may add new services and features to our Site. In the event that these additions affect our Privacy Policy, this document will be updated appropriately. We will post those changes prominently so that you will always know what information we gather, how we might use that information and whether we will disclose it to anyone. We do, however, recommend that you read this Privacy Policy each time you use our Site in case you missed our notice of changes to the Privacy Policy. We will not, however, materially change our policies and practices to make them less protective of Personal Information we have previously collected from you without your express consent.

How Do I Opt-Out or Correct Information About Me

You may always opt-out of receiving future e-mail messages from us. We provide you with the opportunity to opt-out of receiving communications from us at the point where we request information about you. To do so, you can send us a message at customersupport@yourjobpath.com.

To make such a request, please send an e-mail to customersupport@yourjobpath.com.

Do Not Track Practices

As of the date of this Privacy Policy listed above, we cannot honor web browser “do-not-track” signals because we may use third party vendors who do not honor such signals. While we collect Personal Information from you as described earlier in this Privacy Policy, we do not collect or use or allow third parties to collect or use Personal Information from you on the Site in order to monitor your online activities across third party websites or online services and over time (also known as behavioral advertising or interest-based advertising).
