Privacy Policy

Toronto Jobs Journal is committed to providing a safe, protected, and secure experience for our users. Your privacy is of paramount importance to Toronto Jobs Journal, our advertisers, and web publishers. We value your loyalty and will use our best efforts to ensure that the information you submit to us remains private, and is used only for the purposes as set forth herein.

Information Collection and Use

Toronto Jobs Journal is the sole owner of the information collected on this site. We will not sell, share, or rent this information to others in ways different from what is disclosed in this statement. Toronto Jobs Journal 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 car d 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. Toronto Jobs Journal 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 Toronto Jobs Journal 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.

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. Toronto Jobs Journal 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 securityToronto Jobs Journal.

Resumes

Since Toronto Jobs Journal 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 non-paying recruiters, hiring managers, headhunters, and human resource professionals. If you allow your resume to be searchable, then all recruiters who pay for 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 paying 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 paying for the service, evade security measures and gains access to the database, and, subsequently, your resume.

However, recruiters who have paid for access to the database may have retained a copy of your contact information and resume in their own files or databases before this time. We are not responsible for the retention, use, or privacy of resumes in these instances.

Links

This web site contains links to other sites. Please be aware that we, Toronto Jobs Journal, 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.

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 zip 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

Toronto Jobs Journal has an area on the site where you can submit feedback. Any feedback that is submitted through this area becomes the property of Toronto Jobs Journal. 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 emailing us at support@torontojobsjournal.ca.

Privacy Commitment Changes

If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes on our Homepage so our users are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under circumstances, if any, we disclose it. If at any point we decide to use personally identifiable information in a manner different from that stated at the time it was collected, we will notify users by way of an email. Users will have a choice as to whether or not we use their information in this different manner. We will use information in accordance with the privacy policy under which the information was collected.
