the contents on such third-party websites. The Company is not responsible for the
content of linked third-party sites and does not make any representations regarding the

and Careers, are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. We
encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy
statements of each and every web site that collects personally identifiable information.
This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by this web site.
- License of Content to the Company. You grant the Company the royalty-free, perpetual,
irrevocable, non-exclusive and fully sublicensable right and license to copy, distribute,
display or otherwise use any Content you elect to post to publicly accessible areas of the
Website, on any media or technology now known or later developed. For purposes of this

public (including those areas solely accessible by registered users of the Website). You
represent and warrant to the Company that you either own or have the right to transmit
all Content that you post or transmit via the Website.
- Information Collection and Use - Jobs and Careers is the sole owner of the information
collected on this site. We may sell, share, or rent this information to others in ways
different from what is disclosed in this statement. Jobs and Careers collects information
from our users at several different points on our web site. For example, when you sign up
to use a service, enter into a contest, or purchase a product, we may need more specific
information about you, such as name, address, e-mail address, telephone number, credit
card number. If you give us permission, we may use that information to make you aware
of additional products and services that may be of interest to you, or to contact you
regarding site changes. Jobs and Careers collects information on non-personally
identifying details such as, but not limited to, the server you are logged onto, the
geographic location of the ISP you use, the type of browser you use, and your IP
address. This information is obtained for the purpose of measuring ad effectiveness on
behalf of Jobs and Careers clients and customers as well as providing information to help
us determine what is most beneficial for our users, and how we can continually create a
better overall experience for you.
- Third-Party Services - We will share aggregated demographic information with our
partners and advertisers. This is not linked to any personal information that can identify
any individual person.
- When we partner with another party to provide specific services - When the user signs
up for these services, we will share names, or other contact information that is necessary
for the third party to provide these services. These parties are not allowed to use
personally identifiable information except for the purpose of providing these services.
- Security: This web site takes every precaution to protect our users' information. When
users submit sensitive information via the web site, your information is protected both
online and off-line. Jobs and Careers has put security measures in place to protect the
loss, misuse, and alterations of the information under our control. When our registration/
order form asks users to enter sensitive information (such as a credit card number), that
information is encrypted and protected with the best encryption software in the industry -
SSL (Secure Socket Layer). SSL encryption technology scrambles numbers and letters,
making it virtually impossible for them to be stolen or intercepted. While we use SSL
encryption to protect sensitive information online, we also do everything in our power to
protect user-information off-line. All of our users' information, not just the sensitive
information mentioned above, is restricted in our offices. Only employees who need the
information to perform a specific job (for example, our billing clerk or a customer service
representative) are granted access to personally identifiable information. Furthermore,
ALL employees are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy practices. Our employees
are notified and/or reminded about the importance we place on privacy, and what they
can do to ensure our customers' information is protected. If you have any questions
about the security at our web site, you can send an email to us by contacting us in the
contact section of this website.
- Resumes - Since Jobs and Careers is a career site, we give you the option of putting your
resume in our database. By storing your resume in our database, you allow the contents
of your resume to be searchable by recruiters, hiring managers, headhunters, and human
resource professionals. If you allow your resume to be searchable, then all recruiters who
have access to our resume database product will have access to your contact information
and resume. We use our best efforts to grant access to your personal information only to
recruiters, hiring managers, headhunters, and human resource professionals,however we
are not responsible if some other third party, such as someone posing as the
aforementioned and accessing the service, evade security measures and gains access to
the database, and, subsequently, your resume.
- Surveys & Contests - 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. Information requested may
include contact information (such as name and address), and demographic information
(such as a postal code). Contact information will be used to notify the winners and award
prizes. Survey information will be used for purposes of monitoring or improving the use
and satisfaction of this site.
- Feedback - Jobs and Careers has an area on the site where you can submit feedback.
Any feedback that is submitted through this area becomes the property of Jobs and
Careers. We may use this feedback, such as success stories, for marketing purposes, or
to contact you for further feedback on the site.
- Site and Service Updates - We occasionally send the user site and service announcement
updates. Members are not able to un-subscribe from service announcements, which
contain important information about the service. We communicate with the user to
provide requested services and in regards to issues relating to their account via email or
phone.
- Correction/Updating Personal Information - If a user's personally identifiable information
changes (such as your postal code), or if a user no longer desires our service, we will
endeavor to provide a way to correct, update or remove that user's personal data
provided to us.
- Users who no longer wish to receive our updates or promotional materials may opt-out
of receiving these communications by selecting 'remove from list' on our site for the
service originally requested, replying to unsubscribe in the subject line in the email, or
