USER
PRIVACY POLICY
The user Privacy
Policy demonstrates our commitment to protecting the information you submit.
This Privacy Policy only applies to data gathered on the Site, and does not
apply to any other information or web Site. Please review this Privacy Policy periodically
as we may update it from time to time.
This Privacy Policy is effective as of March 1, 2006. Each time you
visit the Site 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 Site you are expressly and affirmatively consenting to our use and
disclosure of the information that you provide, and consenting to receive e-mails,
as described in this Privacy Policy.
The Privacy
Policy governs data collected through Seekersi on-line operations only. Please note,
as set forth in the Privacy Policy, that Seekersi may collect certain personal
information from users and may contact users periodically in accordance with
the terms of the Privacy Policy. In addition, Seekersi reserves the right to
comply, in its sole discretion, with legal requirements, requests from law
enforcement agencies or requests from government entities, even to the extent
that such compliance may require disclosure of certain personal information
collected from users. We do not sell our
users' personal information to anyone for any reason if the user has indicated
a desire for us to keep the information private. When posting jobs and resumes, the Site users
decide on how much contact information they wish to display as the Site enables
private communication for those who choose to hide their personal information.
All users
should be aware, however, that when they voluntarily display or distribute
personal information (such as their e-mail address or resume), that information
can be collected and used by others. This
may result in unsolicited messages from third parties for which Seekersi.com is
not responsible. Also, you may have arrived at this web Site by following a
link from a Seekersi.com newspaper affiliate or other affiliates. If so, please
be aware that Seekersi.com may share your information with that affiliate and
the affiliate may use the information consistent with its Privacy Policy instead
of this one.
Seekersi.com
may also disclose specific user information when we determine that such
disclosure is necessary to comply with the law, to cooperate with or seek
assistance from law enforcement or to protect the interests or safety of Seekersi.com
or other users of the Site. In addition,
the personal Information we have collected may be passed on to a third party in
the event of a transfer of ownership or assets or a bankruptcy of Seekersi.com
and we're constantly refining our privacy policy to ensure that you can get
your job done - all on your own terms and completely anonymously if you so
desire. So that you can be smarter about the way you manage your career,
Seekersi.com continues to strive to provide the safest possible environment for
you to search and apply to jobs.
However, we accept no liability for data supplied by any user for display
on the Site and the respective limitations apply.

Job

Documents that encourage the user to "e-mail for more details" are
not permitted. Documents from any third party charging a fee or restricting
complete access to all resume information are prohibited.
Resume
Posting: Resume postings must contain the
accurate resume of a living individual seeking employment on a full-time,
part-time, or contractual basis on his or her own behalf. Posting your resume on Seekersi.com puts you
in front of thousands of employers with open positions each day. When you post
your resume, we automatically create a registration for you using the email
address and password that you supply. When you return to the Site in the future
you will use that same e-mail address and password to access and edit your
existing resume. We know that our job
seekers have varying levels of comfort when it comes to posting their resume on
the internet.
Resume
Posting Options:
To accommodate the needs of all users, Seekersi offers you the following three posting
options. Managing your privacy is as
simple as selecting which pieces of your contact information are displayed.
This is done in the section of the resume form called "My Profile."
Using the Private Posting Option requires that you select the “Private”
option from the " My Profile "
section at the bottom of the Edit Form. Standard posting
will give you the most visibility to the broadest employer audience possible;
but, because your confidentiality is as important to us as it is to you, we
also offer anonymous and private posting options.
·
Standard Posting: This option gives you the most
visibility to the broadest employer audience possible by making your resume
searchable in the Site resume database.
·
Confidential Posting:
You
can also post to the public resume database without any of your contact information
being displayed. (If you use this option, be sure to remove your contact
information from the body of the resume.) The confidential option also allows
you to only display selected pieces of contact information.
·
Private Posting: This option allows you to post your
resume on Seekersi.com without having it searched by employers. The benefit is
that you can quickly and easily apply for jobs without retyping your
information.

About
Cookies: The use of
cookies is now widespread. At Seekersi.com, like many other Sites, we use
cookies only for the protection and convenience of our users. The reason we use
cookies is to save your time on the Site (so that users do not have to log in
with a password more than once); and also so that we can personalize a user's
experience of the Site. Cookies enable us to serve secure pages to our users
without asking them to sign in repeatedly. If a user's system is idle for more
than an hour, however, the cookie will expire, forcing the user to sign in
again to continue their session. Once you close your browser, the cookie simply
terminates. This prevents unauthorized access to the user's information
while they are away from their computer. You may have the ability to reset your
browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent;
however, if you chose to set up your browser to reject the cookie, you may
still use the Site with impaired functionality as some
Seekersi.com features or services may not function properly without
cookies. In the course of serving
advertisements to this Site, our third-party advertisers may place or recognize
a unique "cookie" on your browser. Additionally, some of our business
partners use cookies on our Site (for example, advertisers). We have no access
to or control over these cookies.

information (such as postcode, age level). Contact information will be used to
notify the winners and award prizes. Survey information will be used for
purposes of monitoring or improving the functionality of the Site.
