Information collected

Your personally identifiable information collected by GoRecroot:

We ask that you do not enter personal information or financial information into your "Profile."

By default, your Profile will be public and available to Users of GoRecroot and anyone else who searches the Internet for public information.

• GoRecroot works with employers, third-party advertising companies, sponsors and other companies with whom we do business ("Business Partners") to place advertising on our site and in email communications sent to our registered users and to recipients of Job Opportunities, Job Search Alerts, and other communications related to GoRecroot. Information about your visit to this site, such as number of times you have viewed an ad, may be used to serve advertising to you.
• Recipients of job opportunities have the option to inquire or forward the job on to friends. When you inquire or forward jobs, at minimum, your name and email address is shared with the employer offering the job.
• GoRecroot may correlate or match registered user information, including Personally Identifiable Information, with information held by our Business Partners to fill job positions, target ads or otherwise improve the effectiveness of our service. Our Business Partners may read or set cookies on your hard drive, use pixel tags, track which ads you have viewed, or collect other information about you.
• From time to time, GoRecroot may also have special offers that are sponsored by a Business Partner. In order to participate in these offers, you may be required to follow a separate registration process. If you consent to receive information from a Business Partner, through an opt-out process, GoRecroot may pass your information to such Business Partners.
• GoRecroot may also offer goods or services for purchase available by our Business Partners. If you purchase goods or services offered through GoRecroot by a Business Partner, then you may be required to submit Personally Identifiable Information in order to complete the transaction and GoRecroot may provide your Personally Identifiable Information to such Business Partner for that purpose.
• In some cases, we may enter into a promotional relationship with a Business Partner in which we prominently display their brand name or trademarks on pages that appear the same as or very similar to the pages of the GoRecroot service. These pages are known as "Co-Branded Pages" and these particular Business Partners are known as "Co-Branded Business Partners."
• If the page on which you submit information is a Co-Branded Page, or was accessed by clicking on a link on a Co-Branded Page, then we may share your personal information with the associated Co-Branded Business Partner. Co-Branded Business Partners may use your personal information in accordance with their own privacy policies. GoRecroot disclaims all liability for the privacy policies and procedures on any Business Partner or Co-Branded Business Partner Web site.
• You will need to contact the Co-Branded Business Partner to instruct them directly regarding your preferences for the use of your personal information by them. Additionally, you agree that GoRecroot may use and disclose all such information so submitted to such Co-Branded Business Partners in the same manner in which we are entitled to use and disclose any other information you submit to us (see Use of Personally Identifiable Information by Business Partners below).

Cookies:

GoRecroot wants to optimize your experience by ensuring that the most relevant information, searches and offers are displayed to you while using the GoRecroot web site. A common manner in which to do this is by placing cookies on your computer. Cookies are strings of text and numbers that can identify your computer to us when you visit our site, and which may be correlated with your Personally Identifiable Information in our log files.

IPAddress:

We log standard information such as your IP address along with the URL from which you came to our site and the URLs visited on our site, which may or may not contain some Personally Identifiable Information. When we send messages to you or others, we may provide a URL link to the GoRecroot site that contains an alphanumeric identifier, which allows us to identify the person to whom we sent the message so that we can personalize our content for that individual.

PixelTags:

GoRecroot uses pixel tags to gather information about the emails we send to our registered users and to recipients of messages. Pixel tags are tiny graphic files, not visible to the human eye, that are included in our HTML-encoded email messages. When such a message is opened in an HTML-capable email program, the recipient's computer will access our server to retrieve the pixel tag file, allowing us to record and store, along with your email address, the date and time the recipient viewed the invite or reminder, that the recipient's email program is capable of receiving HTML-encoded email, and other standard logging information. The pixel tag also may see or read cookies. For more information about cookies and how to disable their use, see the section below on "Use of Cookies."

• Use of our invitation service to tell a friend about our site or a job opportunity, or to participate in a referral chain, requires that you enter your friend’s email address. We will automatically send your friend a one-time email inviting him or her to visit the site or view the opportunity.

Your friend may contact us at GoRecroot to request that we remove this information from view in our active database (Please use GoRecroot Privacy in the subject line).

We have developed a process that uses a "double-blind" email system, which hides the email addresses of both the sender and recipient of email messages to protect the privacy of both the sender and receiver. When using the process on the site, it is up to you to choose when you are comfortable disclosing your email address, or any other contact information, to others through private communications.

However, even if GoRecroot blocks further use of your contact information, GoRecroot cannot prevent employers who have obtained your name and email address independently from GoRecroot from contacting you directly.
