Legal Basis for Processing Personal Data Under General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) provides California residents with certain rights regarding our collection, use, and sharing of your personal information. In addition to our privacy policies outlined below, you may contact us to submit a data rights request to know what personal information has been collected about you in the past 12 months and with whom it has been shared, and to access that information and request that it be deleted.
“Do Not Sell My Personal Information” Notice for California consumers under California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)
Under the CCPA, California consumers have the right to:
- Request that a business that collects a consumer’s personal data disclose the categories and specific pieces of personal data that a business has collected about consumers.
- Request that a business delete any personal data about the consumer that a business has collected.
- Request that a business that sells a consumer’s personal data, not sell the consumer’s personal data.
- If you make a request, we have 30 days to respond to you. If you would like to exercise any of these rights, please contact us at privacy@focusonjobs.com.
Third Parties
With your consent, we will get your permission before sharing your information with any third-party website or service. We use data we have about you (like your search history and preferences) to determine whether you might be interested in the opportunities, or services of a particular partner. We will ask for your explicit consent to share any sensitive personal information.
These third parties have access to your personal data only to perform these tasks on our behalf and are obligated not to disclose or use it for any other purpose.
Analytics
We may use third-party service providers to monitor and analyze the use of our service.
Google Analytics
Google Analytics is a web analytics service offered by Google that tracks and reports website traffic. Google uses the data collected to track and monitor the use of our service. This data is shared with other Google services. Google may use the collected data to contextualize and personalize the ads of its own advertising network.
You can opt-out of having made your activity on the service available to Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on. The add-on prevents the Google Analytics JavaScript (ga.js, analytics.js, and dc.js) from sharing information with Google Analytics about visits activity. For more information on the privacy practices of Google, please visit the Google Privacy & Terms web page: http://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/
Payments
We provide some paid services within the service. In that case, we use third-party services for payment processing (e.g. PayPal).
We will not store or collect your payment card details. That information is provided directly to our third-party payment processors whose use of your personal information is governed by their privacy policy. These payment processors adhere to the standards set by PCI-DSS as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover. PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of payment information. The payment processors we work with are:
