Additional Purposes and Disclosures of Information

— Resume data

By creating a searchable resume through the Site or uploading a file resume on the Site, you are requesting and authorizing TechJobsInGeorgia to make available your resume to third parties, in accordance with our TechJobsInGeorgia General Terms of Service. When you create a profile on TechJobsInGeorgia, your resume is set to searchable by default. This means that profile data and resume data (searchable), except as otherwise indicated on the Site, may be available to third parties, such as Employers.

Please note Employers and Employer representatives who access your resume data while it is set to searchable visibility, or to whom you apply with your not searchable resume, may choose to share your resume with additional parties. TechJobsInGeorgia is not responsible for such sharing. Similarly, when you share your searchable resume directly with a personalized link, we cannot control who sees your resume when you share that link.

You may change your resume privacy settings at any time. If you do not want TechJobsInGeorgia to make your resume data (searchable) available to third parties without your direction or if you do not want Employers to contact you, you can set your resume to not searchable.

– Employer Accounts

We offer users the ability to link Employer accounts together. Linked users can be assigned specific roles, which provide varying levels of access to the candidate Personal Data contained in the parent account. If you are an Employer and you invite other TechJobsInGeorgia users to link their accounts to yours, you agree that such linked users may have access to any and all information in your account. Types of candidate Personal Data include resume contacts, application materials and statuses, communications with applicants, any action taken by you or another user linked to the account, when you took that action, and billing information within the account. When an Employer account is delinked, either by your own action or an administrator’s action, you will lose access to all candidate Personal Data in the linked account.

– Resume Review Services

In certain markets, we may also offer additional resume review services to help Job Seekers build and improve their resumes. For example, this can include helping you understand how your resume may be parsed by applicant tracking system software, feedback on ways to build a more effective resume, or a personalized resume review video. In providing these services, TechJobsInGeorgia may give you feedback, including questions and comments on the contents of your resume, about Your Resume or other materials you submit through the services. We provide this feedback directly to you, and may give you the ability to access it within your account. It is not made available to Employers.

– Automated Processing of Your Personal Data

We perform automated processing of Personal Data to evaluate specific aspects relating to a user and to analyze and predict a user’s preferences and interests. Where we perform this processing, we do so either on the basis of user consent or performance of a contract, whereby such processing is necessary for us to provide our services to Job Seekers and Employers. For example, such processing allows us to match Job Seekers with Employers effectively, to provide Job Seekers with Job Alerts, recommended jobs, and invitations to take action on jobs that the Job Seeker is likely to be more interested in, to send particular Job Seeker applications to an Employer, to display search results, to send application status notifications on behalf of Employers, or to perform certain spam and fraud detection activities to protect our users. Such processing is subject to the safeguards detailed in this Privacy Policy to protect the privacy of our users. You may contact privacy-dept @ TechJobsInGeorgia.com (remove spaces) to exercise your rights or contest any decision generated by said automated processing.

Transfer of information to partners

In certain markets, TechJobsInGeorgia works with partners who are involved in helping Job Seekers find opportunities. These partnerships introduce Job Seekers to TechJobsInGeorgia and our services. These types of partnerships help TechJobsInGeorgia understand the needs of Job Seekers in diverse audiences and how we can improve our services for diverse audiences. In some instances, TechJobsInGeorgia shares limited information back to our partners about Job Seekers. For example, confirmation that a Job Seeker has created an TechJobsInGeorgia account or used one of our Sites successfully (for example, by applying to a certain number of jobs or utilizing our career guides). We strive to help all Job Seekers find jobs but we are primarily a website, so these partnerships help us reach audiences that may not come to TechJobsInGeorgia through regular internet use. These partners may advertise their career services in partnership with TechJobsInGeorgia. For the avoidance of doubt, where partners are co-branded on the site, each entity is a separate controller of your Personal Data.

Transfers of Publicly Available Information

When users post content on the Sites in a manner that is intended to make that content searchable by individuals, TechJobsInGeorgia reserves the right to aggregate and share that information with third parties. For example, if an Employer posts a job on the Sites, TechJobsInGeorgia may share that Job Listing or information contained within that Job Listing with third parties, at TechJobsInGeorgia’s discretion and subject to agreement with such third parties. TechJobsInGeorgia also reserves the right to share information aggregated from public sources in this capacity.

Transfers of information from service providers

TechJobsInGeorgia may collect and use information about users obtained from third-party platforms such as social networking sites for the following purposes:

- - To classify and quantitatively understand the number of responses and spread of marketing campaign measures such as TV commercials;
  - To monitor the reputation of TechJobsInGeorgia’s services to understand what is appreciated and what is not, and use this information in communication plans;
  - For early detection of improvements to the service, monitoring of user feedback, and planning of countermeasures;
  - To provide support for users who do not know how to use TechJobsInGeorgia’s services;
  - To find product defects (e.g., “When I try to open the application, it displays a 501 error and I can’t use it” or “I can’t apply for a job”) and escalate the issue to the development team

Your web browser may also disclose to the third-party website the URL of the Sites page you clicked from, and this URL may include search terms and filters you used on the Sites.

Logging from third-party websites

If you do not already have an TechJobsInGeorgia account but log in to TechJobsInGeorgia using a third party such as Facebook or Google, this creates an TechJobsInGeorgia account using the same email address used in your Facebook or Google account. If you agree to provide this information to TechJobsInGeorgia, Facebook or Google will authenticate you and redirect you to TechJobsInGeorgia. Please note, when you log in to TechJobsInGeorgia using your Facebook or Google account, Facebook or Google will use cookies in order to authenticate you as a Facebook or Google user.

By accessing TechJobsInGeorgia through your Facebook or Google account, you understand that Facebook or Google will share certain Personal Data for the purposes of authentication to permit you to access our Sites in a secure manner. If you no longer wish to share data with TechJobsInGeorgia from your Facebook or Google account, you will need to adjust your Facebook or Google account settings.

Do Not Track Requests

We do not respond to the browser “Do Not Track” (DNT) signal if enabled by the user in their web browser. When we set or read cookies on non-affiliated sites that have integrated our job search and display features, we do so, for example, to provide a personalized job search experience to users on those sites. We do not share any information about your use of our Sites with those third parties. When third parties that we have integrated into the Sites (as described in our Cookie Policy) set or read their own third-party cookies, they may or may not respond to the DNT signal.

Acquisitions and other reorganizations

Learn about how your data may be disclosed to one or more third parties in connection with any change in ownership.

Information collected pursuant to this Privacy Policy, including Personal Data, may be disclosed to one or more third parties in connection with any change of ownership or control in TechJobsInGeorgia’s business (whether by merger, acquisition, sale, or otherwise), or any other reorganization or joint venture, or assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or any portion of our business, assets or stock (including in connection with any bankruptcy or similar proceeding), and any such information may be used by such third party in accordance with this Privacy Policy until you are otherwise notified. Equally, information collected pursuant to this Privacy Policy, including Personal Data, may be disclosed to one or more third parties in connection with any acquisition or merger carried out by TechJobsInGeorgia of such third parties.

Your personal data rights

Learn about your rights to access, update, delete, object, and restrict the processing of your personal data.

As a user of our Sites, you may have certain Personal Data rights. All users of TechJobsInGeorgia, regardless of location, may exercise these rights with some limitations, as set out in this Privacy Policy. These rights are provided only to human account holders, and are not available to employers or other legal entities, except as required by law. If permitted by the law, a third-party is able to make a request on your behalf.

We verify all requests through email before actioning them and reserve the right to deny a request where we are unable to verify your identity satisfactorily. This also applies to requests submitted on your behalf by someone else.

Although TechJobsInGeorgia offers these rights to all its users, subject to applicable laws, Employers may not offer the same rights. You should consult your local laws and the laws in the Employer’s location to understand what your rights are regarding your application materials and other Personal Data of which the Employer is the data controller.

If you have any queries or complaints about how we process your Personal Data, we encourage you to contact us.

The Right of Access to and Portability of Your Personal Data

You may make a formal request to access (also referred to as the “right to know”) your Personal Data by sending an email to privacy-dept @ TechJobsInGeorgia.com (remove spaces when sending email) from the email address associated with your account. You are able to access much of your Personal Data by viewing it directly in your account.

The Right to Rectify Your Personal Data

You have the right to rectify (update or correct) your Personal Data. You can modify much of your Personal Data by editing your account profile information directly.

You may also make a formal request to have TechJobsInGeorgia rectify any inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated Personal Data on your behalf by sending an email to privacy-dept @ TechJobsInGeorgia.com (remove spaces when sending email) from the email address associated with your account.

The Right to Delete Your Personal Data

You have the right to request that we delete your Personal Data. Also known as the “right to erasure”, Job Seekers may close or permanently delete their account. You are able to delete much of your Personal Data by removing it from your account directly. If you wish to close your account, please click the “close my account” button on your account page.

You may request the permanent erasure of your Personal Data processed by our site by submitting a Personal Data Request form. You may also request that we delete your Personal Data by sending an email to privacy-dept @ TechJobsInGeorgia.com (remove spaces when sending email) from the email address associated with your account.

Deletion of your Personal Data may have additional effects on your account, as explained in our privacy FAQ. For example, if you have used TechJobsInGeorgia Apply or Easy Apply to apply to a job listed on our Site or an affiliate site, you may not receive certain communications associated with your application from us or from other users of our Site or affiliated sites. Deletion of your Personal Data does not affect messages we process on behalf of others in connection with their use of our site, and they may continue to have access to all messages sent to or received from you.

By making a Personal Data deletion request, you acknowledge that you will be removed from consideration for all active sweepstakes, contests, prize draws, and other promotions.

Where TechJobsInGeorgia uses a third-party vendor to process Personal Data controlled by TechJobsInGeorgia, we will pass on your request to these vendors and make reasonable requests to inform other controllers of your Personal Data of your request.

Please note that a deletion request only affects your Personal Data. If you submit a deletion request against your Employer account, we will only delete your Personal Data, and any non-Personal Data such as information about your company will not be deleted.

The Right to Object to or Restrict the Processing of Your Personal Data

You have the right to object to and to request the restriction of the processing of your Personal Data.

Where we rely on legitimate interests as a legal basis to process your Personal Data, you can object to this processing and request that we no longer process your Personal Data in this way, unless we have compelling legitimate grounds which override your rights.

You also have the right to object to automated processing, including decision-making and profiling, which produce a legal effect or similarly significant effects.

If you wish to make a formal request to object to or restrict the processing of your Personal Data, please email privacy-dept @ TechJobsInGeorgia.com (remove spaces when sending email).

Withdrawing Consent

Where we rely on your consent to process your Personal Data, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. Instructions on how to withdraw consent will be explained to you at the time that you are asked to provide your consent.

If you have consented to provide location information via a mobile app, you may turn off your location services on your device at any time. You may also contact privacy-dept @ TechJobsInGeorgia.com (remove spaces) to inform us that you are withdrawing your consent. Please note that any processing that we have carried out before the withdrawal of your consent remains lawful.
