Privacy Policy

Data Gathering and Application

Our data gathering strategy involves collecting a range of information to improve our services and personalize user experiences. This includes your personal details such as name, contact information, job-related data, and other identifiers you provide. We also track your interactions with our services, including the pages you visit, the searches you make, and other activities. This information is combined with data from additional sources to refine our services, offer relevant content, and gain insights into user needs and preferences. We may aggregate or anonymize this data so that it is not traceable to you or your device. Aggregated or anonymized data may be used for research, marketing, and other operational purposes and may be shared with third parties like advertisers and promotional partners.

In compliance with the legal requirements of your jurisdiction and the use of our services, we may collect, use, store, and transfer different types of Personal Information. The table below illustrates the categories of Personal Information that we might process, including its usage, storage, and transfer.

Identity Information	First name, maiden name, last name, resume/CV, Social Media profile, username or similar identifier, profile photo
Contact Information	Physical address, email address, social media address, telephone number, and any other contact information you provide to us

Aggregated Data Usage Policy

We collect and use Aggregated Data, which refers to statistical or demographic details, for various purposes. Even though this data may be derived from your Personal Information, it is not categorized as Personal Information because it does not directly or indirectly identify you. For instance, we may aggregate your Usage Information to compute the proportion of users utilizing a specific feature on our website.

Importance of Providing Personal Information

If we are legally obligated to collect Personal Information or it is required for a contract (or its formation), and you do not supply the necessary Personal Information upon request, we might be unable to complete or form the contract (e.g., offer services). Consequently, we may need to cancel any service you have with us (or have requested), and you accept this as a condition of service.

Data Collection Methods

• Automatic Collection: While using our website, we may collect Personal and Non-Personal Data, such as Technical and Usage Data about your device, browsing activities, and patterns through cookies, server logs, and similar technologies. If you visit other websites utilizing our cookies and Tracking Technologies, we might also gather Technical and Usage Data about you. For further information, refer to our "Cookie Policy" section.
• External Data Sources: We may obtain Personal Data, including Technical and Usage Data, from third-party sources such as analytics firms or advertising networks. If you are a client, we may gather additional Business Information from these sources to enhance the Business Information you have provided. We may also collect Business Information and Contact Data about non-users from these external sources.
• Client-Specific Data Handling: When clients hire us to provide services, we handle Personal Data based on their instructions and do not maintain a direct relationship with the individuals whose data we process. If you need to access, correct, amend, or delete your data, or have other requests, we will provide you with the client’s contact details for direct communication. In some cases, we may assist with your request.

Personal Information Usage

• Provision of Services: To fulfill your Service requests, we process your personal information. This may involve sharing data with third-party service providers or partners to ensure we deliver our Services effectively. Without this processing, we cannot provide the Services properly.
• Customer Support: When you contact us with questions or feedback, your personal data helps us provide the necessary support. This ensures we can resolve any issues you have. Without this information, our support services would be less effective.
• Compliance Monitoring: We use your personal information to detect prohibited or illegal activities, enforce agreements, and manage fees associated with our Services. This process is critical for maintaining the security and compliance of our Services.
• Safety and Security: To safeguard your experience and protect against spam and malware, we use your data to enhance our security measures and verify user identities. Without this information, ensuring the security of our Services would be challenging.
• Personalization and Plugins: Our Services feature third-party plugins and customization options. We utilize cookies and similar technologies to personalize your experience as outlined in our Cookie Policy. Without processing your personal data, full access and personalization might not be available.

If we plan to use your personal information in ways not described in this Privacy Policy in the future, we will update you. You will then have the choice to limit our data use, which could affect your access to certain Services.

When revisions are made, the updated Privacy Policy will be posted on our services.
