Needlestackjobs.com Privacy Policy
1. Overview
 

This privacy policy is intended to assist you in understanding what information we gather about you when you visit the website at www.needlestackjobs.com (“Website”), how we use that information, and the safeguards we have in place for the information.  Whenever you visit the Website or provide us with information, you are, by doing so, accepting the practices described in this Privacy Policy at that time. You agree that by using the Website you are expressly and affirmatively consenting to our use and disclosure of the information that you provide, and consenting to receive emails, as described below in this Privacy Policy.

This Privacy Policy applies only to the information collected online on the Website, and does not apply to any other information or websites.

2. Information We Collect
  2.1  General Browsing 

Needlestack Jobs may gather navigational information during each user’s visit to the Website.  In the process of gathering navigational information, non-personally identifiable information (i.e., domain type, browser version, service provider and IP address) may be collected.  Such information may be gathered by Needlestack Jobs to learn more about the technical efficiencies of the Website (such as the time it takes a visitor to connect to the Website or download pages) and the use of the Website by visitors, including the areas of the Website that are most visited or the time of a last visit to a page on the Website.  Needlestack Jobs uses this information to better understand and improve a visitor's experience at the Website.

  2.2 Collection of Personal Information

When you subscribe to services offered through the Website, we may collect personal information, including your name, billing address, telephone number(s) and email address(es), credit card information, and any other information you may choose to provide us such as your location and other demographic information.  This information allows us to provide users with private and secure areas to post and modify their content on our site, for example, job descriptions and resumes.  We may also collect any personal information that you include in any email correspondence with us. 

3. How We Use and Disclose Your Information 

Any personally identifiable information you provide to Needlestack Jobs is used to enable us to deliver services you requested and to respond to your questions. Needlestack Jobs may also use this information to contact you and deliver information that may be targeted to your interests such as relevant job postings or services.  If you do not wish to receive these communications, you may opt out of any further receipt by following the opt out provisions provided in each such communication.

Needlestack Jobs does not sell, rent or trade any of the personal information collected from you to third parties. However, Needlestack Jobs may use third parties to provide specific services, such as maintaining the Website.  These third parties may have access to and use of the information collected from you in order to perform services for Needlestack Jobs.   

All subscribers should be aware, however, that when they voluntarily display or distribute personal information (such as their resume), that information can be collected and used by others.  This may result in unsolicited messages from third parties for which Needlestack Jobs is not responsible. 

In the event that Needlestack Jobs sells or transfers a particular portion of its business assets, subscriber and other user information may be one of the business assets transferred as part of the transaction. If substantially all of the assets of Needlestack Jobs are acquired, subscriber and other user information, including information you provide us, may be transferred as part of the acquisition.

You should also be aware that we may disclose specific information about you if necessary to do so by law or based on our good faith belief that it is necessary to conform or comply with the law or is necessary to protect the users of the Website or the public.
