Thank you for choosing to be part of our community at HireEffect (“Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”). We value our clients’ privacy. This privacy policy is effective June 1, 2018; it summarizes what information we might collect from a client or other visitor (“you”), and what we will and will not do with it. Please note that this privacy policy does not govern the collection and use of information by companies that HireEffect does not control, nor by individuals not employed or managed by HireEffect. If you visit a website that we mention or link to, be sure to review its privacy policy before providing the site with information.
When you visit our website hireeffect.com (the “website”), and more generally, use any of our services (the “services”, which include the website), we appreciate that you are trusting us with your personal information. We take your privacy very seriously. In this privacy notice, we seek to explain to you in the clearest way possible what information we collect, how we use it and what rights you have in relation to it. We hope you take some time to read through it carefully, as it is important.
If you have any questions or concerns about this privacy notice, or our practices with regards to your personal information, please contact us at security@hireeffect.com.
This privacy notice applies to all information collected through our services (which, as described above, includes our website), as well as any related services, sales, marketing, or events.
What we do with your personally identifiable information.
It is always up to you whether to disclose personally identifiable information to us, although if you elect not to do so, we reserve the right not to register you as a user or provide you with any services. “Personally identifiable information” means information that can be used to identify you as an individual, such as, for example:
- your name, company, email address, phone number, billing address, and shipping address
- your HireEffect user ID and password
- credit card information
- any account-preference information you provide us
- your computer’s domain name and IP address, indicating where your computer is located on the Internet
- session data for your login session, so that our computer can ‘talk’ to yours while you are logged in.
If you do provide personally identifiable information to us, either directly or through a reseller or other business partner, we will:
- not sell or rent it to a third party without your permission — although unless you opt-out (see below), we may use your contact information to provide you with information we believe you need to know or may find useful, such as (for example) news about our services and products and modifications to the Terms of Service;
- take commercially reasonable precautions to protect the information from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction;
- not use or disclose the information except:
- as necessary to provide services or products you have ordered, such as (for example) by providing it to a carrier to deliver products you have ordered;
- in other ways described in this privacy policy or to which you have otherwise consented;
- in the aggregate with other information in such a way so that your identity cannot reasonably be determined (for example, statistical compilations);
- as required by law, for example, in response to a subpoena or search warrant;
- to outside auditors who have agreed to keep the information confidential;
- as necessary to enforce the Terms of Service;
- as necessary to protect the rights, safety, or property of HireEffect, its users, or others; this may include (for example) exchanging information with other organizations for fraud protection and/or risk reduction.
Other information we collect.
We may collect other information that cannot be readily used to identify you, such as the domain name and IP address of your computer. We may use this information, individually or in the aggregate, for technical administration of our Web site(s); research and development; customer- and account administration; and to help us focus our marketing efforts more precisely.
External data storage sites.
We may store your data on servers provided by third-party hosting vendors with whom we have contracted.
Your privacy responsibilities.
To help protect your privacy, be sure:
- not to share your user ID or password with anyone else;
- to log off the HireEffect website when you are finished;
- to take customary precautions to guard against “malware” (viruses, Trojan horses, bots, etc.), by installing and updating commercially available anti-virus software.
Notice to users in the European Union and Australia / New Zealand / Asia-Pacific
HireEffect’s operations are located in the United States. If you provide information to us, the information will be transferred out of your home jurisdiction to the United States. By providing personal information to us, you are consenting to its storage and use as described in this privacy policy.
Changes to this privacy policy
We reserve the right to change this privacy policy as we deem necessary or appropriate because of legal compliance requirements or changes in our business practices. We will notify you (by email to the email address you have provided) of any material change to how we will use personally identifiable information.
