SECURITY
HyreSnap has implemented technical and organizational measures designed to secure your personal information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration or disclosure. Notwithstanding such measures, the Internet is an open system and we cannot guarantee that unauthorized third parties will never be able to defeat those measures or use your personal information for improper purposes. We will notify the owners of HyreSnap accounts within 48 hours of the discovery of a data breach, and we will work with our customers to inform account holders who may have been directly affected by the breach. Moreover, one of our primary purposes is to provide you with a platform to broadcast the information in your profile/resume and profile widely and to maximize your career opportunities. Accordingly, such an environment does present a risk that unauthorized third parties will view this data. Further, your profile/resume should not contain any sensitive data including personality profiles or data that you would not want made public. When you place an order online at HyreSnap, your credit card information is protected through the use of encryption, such as the Secure Socket Layer ("SSL") protocol. SSL makes it difficult for your credit card information to be intercepted or stolen while being transmitted. HyreSnap uses a service company to process its credit card transactions. We also use cookies, web beacons, and Java Script to administer our site and deliver a personalized experience. For additional detailed information on each of these, please see below. You are responsible for ensuring that your log-in credentials (your username and password) are kept confidential.
USE OF COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES
Technologies such as cookies, beacons, scripts and tags are used by HyreSnap and our partners, affiliates or analytics or service providers. These technologies are used in analyzing trends, administering the website, tracking users' movements around the site, and gathering demographic information about our user base as a whole. We may receive reports based on the use of these technologies by these companies on an individual and aggregated basis. Various browsers may offer their own management tools for removing these types of tracking technologies. We use cookies on our site to tell the web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize HyreSnap pages, or register for services, a cookie helps us to recall your specific information (such as user name, password and preferences). We also use cookies of certain third party partners, including Indeed.com, Hotjar and Mixpanel, which have plugins installed on our site. Because of our use of cookies, we can deliver faster and more accurate results and a more personalized site experience. When you return to the HyreSnap site, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the features that you customized. We also use cookies to track click streams and for load balancing. You may have the ability to accept or decline HyreSnap and/or third party cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline all cookies if you prefer. Alternatively, you may be able to modify your browser setting to notify you each time a cookie is tendered and permit you to accept or decline cookies on an individual basis. If you choose to decline cookies, however, that may hinder performance and negatively impact your experience on the HyreSnap website. To protect your privacy, be sure to close your browser completely after you have finished conducting business with a website that does use cookies.
HOW WE RESPOND TO DO NOT TRACK SIGNALS
Online tracking is the collection of data about an individual’s Internet activity used to deliver targeted advertisements and for other purposes.
