Disclosure of Information to Others
We do not disclose to third parties your personal information, combined personal and demographic information or information about your use of the jobmining.com Web site (such as the areas you visit or the services you access), except as set forth in the following four subparagraphs.
- We may disclose such information to third parties if you consent to such disclosure. For example, if you indicate that you would like to receive information about the products or services of third parties at the time you register for a My JobMining account, we may supply your contact information to third parties such as employers, recruiters, data aggregators, marketers or others for the purpose of sending you e-mail or otherwise communicating with you. We may use data we have about you (such as the interests and preferences you have expressed) to determine whether you might be interested in the products or services of a particular third-party.
- We may disclose such information to companies and individuals we employ to perform functions on our behalf. Examples may include hosting our Web servers, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, processing credit card payments, and providing customer service. These companies and individuals will have access to your personal information as necessary to perform their functions, but they may not share that information with any other third party.
- We may disclose such information if legally required to do so, if requested to do so by a governmental entity, including a governmental entity of the United States, or if we believe in good faith that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to legal requirements or comply with legal process; (b) protect the rights or property of jobmining.com or its affiliated companies; (c) prevent a crime or protect national security; or (d) protect the personal safety of users or the public.
- We may disclose and transfer such information to a third party who acquires all or a substantial portion of jobmining.com's business, whether such acquisition is by way of merger, consolidation or purchase of all or a substantial portion of our assets. In addition, in the event jobmining.com becomes the subject of a bankruptcy proceeding, whether voluntary or involuntary, jobmining.com or its trustee in bankruptcy may sell, license or otherwise dispose of such information in a transaction approved by the bankruptcy court.
jobmining.com may also share aggregated anonymous information about visitors to its Web site with its clients, partners and other third parties so that they may understand the kinds of visitors that visit jobmining.com's site and how those visitors use the site.
jobmining.com and its affiliates supply technology, hosting and related services to other leading companies to power recruitment areas on their Web sites (sometimes referred to as "career site hosting recruitment areas"). Personal and/or demographic information supplied by you in a career site hosting recruitment area becomes part of the jobmining.com database, but it is not accessible by anyone other than you, jobmining.com and the company concerned without your consent.
Information gathered on a page in a career site hosting recruitment area, or on a co-branded page (such as that of a contest co-sponsored by jobmining.com and another company), may become the property of the other company or of both jobmining.com and the other company. In that instance, the use of such information by the other company may be subject to the privacy policy of that company and, in any event, jobmining.com is not responsible for that company's use of your personal or demographic information.
Resumes
Since jobmining.com is a
career site, we give you the option of putting your resume in our
database. There are two ways of doing this:
- You can store your resume in our database, but not allow it to
be searchable by potential employers. Not allowing your resume to
be searchable means that you can use it to apply for a job online,
but employers and recruiters will not have access to search it
through our resume database product.
- If you allow your resume to be searchable, then all parties
with access to our searchable resume database (or copies thereof)
will have access to your resume.
In addition, you can also
elect to make your resume confidential which means that your contact
info and current employer will be not be displayed to all parties
with access to our searchable resume database.
We attempt to
limit access to our searchable resume database (or copies thereof)
only to paying employers, recruiters, hiring managers, headhunters,
and human resource professionals, as well as law enforcement and
national security agencies, but cannot guarantee that other parties
will not gain access to this database. We are not responsible for
the use made of resumes by third parties who access such resumes
while they are in our searchable database. You may remove your
resume from our database at any time. However, employers, recruiters
and others who have paid for access to that database or to obtain a
copy of that database, as well as parties who have otherwise gained
access to the database, may have retained a copy of your resume in
their own files or databases. We are not responsible for the
retention, use or privacy of resumes in these instances.
