Privacy Policy

Updated 6/19/2018

At Great Recruiters™, LLC, your privacy is very important to us. Part of the operation of the Great Recruiters website involves the collection and use of information about those who visit and/or use the website. This privacy policy explains what type of information we collect and what we may do with that information. This privacy policy may change from time to time, so please check it often.

The information we collect is used to improve the content of our web pages. Personally identifiable information is not shared with, nor is it sold to, other organizations for commercial purposes, except to provide better access and/or functionality that you may have requested. However, we do reserve the right to collect and aggregate data, ratings, and reviews for commercial purposes without identifying the source of such data, ratings, or reviews.

What Information Do We Collect?

In general, you can visit this website without identifying who you are or revealing any information about yourself. Information collected online can generally be categorized as anonymous or personally identifiable. Anonymous information is information that cannot be connected to the identity of a specific individual. Personally identifiable information is information that specifically identifies a particular user, such as by name, address, or phone number. An example of anonymous information is the fact that, while this website may record the number of visits to a particular page that occur in a given period of time, it does not necessarily reveal the names or other identifying information of every visitor. Many users of this website will choose not to provide any personally identifiable information; therefore, those individuals are anonymous to us, and any data collected about their use of our website, is anonymous information; sometimes this information may be referred to as “meta data,” and with respect to reviews, for example, such data may only be identifiable as to industry, job title, and/or geographic location.

Automatic Anonymous Information

When you visit our website, we may collect certain technical and routing information about your computer. For example, we may log environmental variables such as browser type, operating system and CPU speed, and the Internet Protocol (IP) address of your originating Internet Service Provider, to try to bring you the best possible user experience. We also record search requests and results to try to ensure the accuracy and efficiency of our search engine. We may use your IP address to track your use of our website, including pages visited and the time spent on each page. We can collect this information and use it to measure the use of this website and to improve its content and performance. All of the information that is automatically submitted to us by your browser is considered anonymous information. To the extent we share such information with third parties, it is not traceable to any particular user and will not be used to contact you.

Cookies

This website uses cookies. Cookies are small data files, typically made up of a string of text and numbers, that assign you a unique identifier. This information enables your computer to have a “dialogue” with our website and permits us to administer our website more efficiently and to provide a more tailored and user-friendly access for all users. You may set your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie or even to prevent cookies from being sent; if you do so, this may limit the functionality available when you visit our website because cookies might be necessary to properly operate within our website pages.

Third parties or affiliates that link on this website may use cookies or collect other information when you go to their website. We do not control the collection or use of such information by these other companies or organizations. You should contact those companies or organizations directly if you have any questions about their collection or use of the information they collect about you.

How Do We Use Information We Collect?

We collect personally identifiable information only for providing the website access and usage that you request, generating statistical studies, conducting marketing research, improving our website, sending you surveys, and notifying you of new changes to our website that may affect you. If and when you submit personally identifiable information to us, you understand that you are agreeing to allow us to access, store, and use that information for those purposes.

Except for the disclosure of information in accordance with and furtherance of the Terms of Use, we will not sell or give any personally identifiable information to any other third parties unless compelled by law or to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities or suspected fraud. We may be required by law enforcement or judicial authorities to provide personally identifiable information to the certain governmental authorities. If requested by law enforcement or by judicial order, we will provide this information on receipt of the appropriate documentation. We may also release information to law enforcement agencies or other third parties if we feel it is necessary to protect the safety and welfare of our personnel, any other person, or to enforce these Terms of Use.

Opt-Out Policy

If at any time you do not wish to receive offers and/or emails from us, we simply ask that you tell us. You may request that we remove your name from our mailing list by sending us an email addressed to [email protected] and indicating in the subject line “No Offers or Email.”

Security

We operate secure data networks protected by industry standard firewall and password protection systems. Our security and privacy policies are periodically reviewed and enhanced as necessary, and only authorized individuals have access to the personally identifiable information provided by our users. We do not, however, guarantee that unauthorized, inadvertent disclosure will not ever occur.

Transfer of Customer Information

Customer lists, information, and all data on the website are properly considered assets of a business. Accordingly, if we merge with another entity or if we sell our assets to another entity, our customer lists and information, including personally identifiable information that you have provided us, would normally be included among the assets transferred.

For Users who are “natural persons” as defined under General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) and are visiting our Platform and Site from the European Union (“EU”) or any other country outside the United States, please be advised that your information may be transferred to, stored, and/or processed in the United States, which is where Great Recruiters servers are located.  Data protection and other laws of the United States or other countries might not be similar or as comprehensive as those in your country, but please be assured that Great Recruiters takes the appropriate steps pursuant to laws and regulations in the United States to ensure that your privacy is protected.

In order to use the Great Recruiters platform, either directly or via a hosted subscriber portal, Users must provide a name and email address.  Great Recruiters will encrypt personal data when such data is transferred (aka “Pseudonymisation”). Users personal data may be transferred to and stored in locations outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”) (such as the United States of America) at a Great Recruiter’s server.

If Great Recruiters (either directly or indirectly) transfers your personal data to a recipient outside the EEA, it will only do so in compliance with the GDPR.  If your personal data is obtained and stored on Great Recruiter’s server as a result of your relationship with a Great Recruiter’s subscriber, Great Recruiters we will take appropriate steps to ensure that your personal data is adequately Protected under applicable law.

For more information on cross-border transfers of your personal data or Great Recruiter’s safeguards, please address and contact our “Data Controller” via the following: [email protected].

As noted above, your personal data may end up on a server in the United States perhaps because you engaged one of Great Recruiter’s subscribers or otherwise consented to provide such data or personal information to Great Recruiters.  Great Recruiters does not use the personal data collected to make automated decisions regarding employment or credit screening.  The following are some examples that illustrate how Great Recruiters keeps your personal data and for what purpose:

• Great Recruiters may keep your personal data collected during a site visit involving a purchase of services for as long as required by applicable tax law;
