Privacy

Security standards used to protect this site exceed those required by US, Australian, Canadian and European law.

We participate in the EU Safe Harbor Privacy Framework as set forth by the United States Department of Commerce. As part of our participation in the safe harbor, we have agreed to self-compliance dispute resolution for disputes relating to our compliance with the Safe Harbor Privacy Framework. If you have any complaints regarding our compliance with the Safe Harbor please contact securitywatchdog@insala.com. All dispute resolution process shall be conducted in English.

Your privacy and the privacy of all users of this web product and the pages of our Network partners' sites (collectively known as the "Site") are important to us. Therefore, we adopt the following privacy policy (the "Policy"). The Policy is based on the principles of notice, choice, and access security in the collection and use of all information regarding our users and their activities at our Site.

This Policy incorporates by reference, and is intended to evidence our full intent to comply with, the Safe Harbor Privacy Principles issued and published by the U.S. Department of Commerce (the "Safe Harbors"). You are encouraged to review the Safe Harbors by accessing the following link: http://www.export.gov/safeharbor. This Policy further incorporates by reference, and is intended to evidence our full intent to comply with, the requirements of the Data Directive enacted and enforced by the European Commission (the "Data Directive"). Materials relating to the Data Directive can be accessed at http://europa.eu.int/comm/justice_home/fsj/privacy/.

1. Notice

This Policy tells you, among other things, what information we gather from you through our Site, how we may use or disclose that information, and our efforts to protect it. Please read this Policy carefully and feel free to contact us at support@insala.com if you have any inquiries or complaints, or questions regarding its contents. Before or in connection with your use of our Site, we may collect a variety of information from and about you in different ways. When we create your account we store certain personally identifying information such as your name and e-mail address. As part of our services, you may create or submit your resume to be stored on-line with us. Or alternatively our clients may enter the information as they have control over some of the information as well. This is because part of our site functions as an application that provides a service to our clients. Client's may enter personal information of candidates and employees into our system. In some cases those candidates may enter the information themselves. However, under no circumstance do we use the personal information submitted beyond the scope of providing our service. It is our commitment to preserve the confidentiality of this information as our client's assets, particularly on those sites where we have branded the site with their name and logo. But at the same time care for the privacy of the end users of our site. Read on for more information. You may also choose to store personal contact information of others and personal documents. We use the personally identifying information you provide to register you as a user of the Site, to administer Site usage to monitor traffic-levels, and to contact you regarding improvements we can make to our Site and our services, if necessary. We may use your e-mail address to contact you directly regarding services, products, or information that we believe may be of interest to you. We will not use your information for any purpose that you have not authorized.

We do not sell or rent any information we collect as part of our services to any third parties without your consent. We may release resumes and registration information we collect through our service, known as Employment Information, only to potential employers you indicate through your account. We do not make any Employment Information available to potential employers until you do so yourself or you indicate that you would like us to do so. Prior to disclosure, we will ensure to the extent possible that potential employers are also in compliance with applicable privacy law.

From time to time, we may also disclose information to fulfill certain legal and regulatory requirements or if we believe, in good faith, that such disclosure is legally required or necessary to protect others' rights or to prevent harm.

2. Surveys and Contests

From time-to-time our site requests information from users via surveys or contests. Participation in these surveys or contests is completely voluntary and the user therefore has a choice whether or not to disclose this information. The requested information typically includes contact information (such as name and shipping address), and demographic information (such as zip code). Contact information will be used and/or shared with the contest or survey sponsors to notify the winners and award prizes. Anonymous Survey and Contest information will be used for purposes of monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of this site. Users' personally identifiable information is not shared with third parties unless we give prior notice and choice. Though we may use an intermediary to conduct these surveys or contests, they may not use users' personally identifiable information for any secondary purposes.

3. Log Files

Like most standard Web site servers we use log files. This includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp, and number of clicks to analyze trends, administer the site, track user's movement in the aggregate, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses, etc. are not linked to personally identifiable information. IP addresses are tied to personally identifiable information to enable our Web-based service. We use a tracking utility called Webtrends that uses log files to analyze user movement.

4. Networking Forum and Member's Chat

Within the networking forum and member's chat feature of the EmploymentTalk product, information such as name, screen name, email address, and country are used in a quasi-public way and can be viewed only by other users of the system. This is done through intrasite mail to intracompany contacts and is not disclosed to third party agents. The purpose of these two elements is for communication between other members only.

5. Choice

You may choose to restrict our use of your information. If you are a user of our Site or services, you may restrict distribution of your Employment Information by indicating such restrictions in your account when asked. On our Site, you have the option to remove your name and personal information from any information that will or may be disclosed to a third party (opt out).

For particularly sensitive categories of information, such as your medical or health conditions, ethnic or racial origin, political or religious beliefs, trade union membership or information concerning your health or sex life, we will not disclose such information to any third party without your affirmative authorization (opt in) on the Site. We will not use your information for any purpose other than for those purposes you have authorized and we will not use your information for a purpose that is incompatible with the purpose for which it was originally authorized by you. We will treat as sensitive any information that we receive from a third party where the third party treats and identifies it as sensitive. When you opt in to receive any newsletters (TechView or ECM Newsletter) you may opt out in two ways. We offer potential customers, clients and candidates a way to opt out and facilitate opt-out interaction with client administrators. You may opt out of receiving the ECM Newsletter by canceling your subscription. You may also opt out of either the ECM Newsletter or the TechView Newsletter by clicking on the opt-out feature found at the bottom of each newsletter. When you click on this opt-out feature you will be prompted to send an email to support@insala.com where your information will be noted and you will no longer receive either newsletter.

6. Onward Transfer (Transfers to Third Parties)

We will apply the Notice and Choice policies discussed above in the event we propose to disclose your information to a third party. If we propose to disclose your information to a third party that is acting as our agent or on our behalf, we will ensure that the third party has agreed to abide by the Safe Harbors or is subject to the Data Directive, or can otherwise assure adequate protection of your information. We may seek to assure adequate protection, for example, by entering into written agreements with third parties requiring such parties to provide at least the same level of privacy protection as is required by the Safe Harbors and/or the Data Directive.

7. Access

You can access your information by logging into your account on the Site. Once there, you can modify, correct, amend or delete your information. Ordinarily, we will not restrict access to your information except in rare cases where we reasonably believe that the rights of persons other than yourself would be violated.

8. Security

Your account containing your information is password protected. Only those who log on with your password can access your account. We have taken reasonable precautions to protect your personal information from loss, misuse and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and destruction. However, please remember that you play a valuable part in security as well. Your password to access your account should never be shared with anyone and should be changed at regular intervals. You are also advised to use a different password for this system than you use for other systems such as your financial institution. Standard security procedures recommend that you never use a single password more than once and never use the same password for multiple system logins. After you have finished using the Site, you should log off and exit your browser so no unauthorized persons can use our Site with your name and account information. Furthermore, if you provide any information to parties who operate Web sites that are linked to or from our Site, different rules may apply to their collection, use, or disclosure of your personal information. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of such other sites before revealing any sensitive or personal information. Regardless of the precautions taken by you or by us, "perfect security" does not exist on the Internet. We cannot ensure or warrant the ultimate security of any information you transmit.

9. Data Integrity

We make every effort to ensure that your information is reliable for the use you intend, and that it is accurate, complete, and current. To assist us in ensuring that your information is relevant on an on-going basis for its intended purposes, we encourage you to update your information on the Site as frequently as is necessary. We may periodically send you a notice asking you to visit the Site and update your information. If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes to this privacy statement, the homepage, and other places we deem appropriate so our users are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it. We will use information in accordance with the privacy policy under which the information was collected. If, however, we are going to use users' personally identifiable information in a manner different from that stated at the time of collection we will notify users via email or by posting a notice on our Web site for 30 days.
