Collection and Processing of Your Personal Information

Personal information means information that identifies, or can be used to identify, you as an individual. Non-personal information means information that does not directly identify you. We collect both types of information about you.

We collect personal information about you from a variety of sources, including when you visit our website, when you voluntarily provide information to us, when information is publicly posted (e.g., Google, Facebook, Twitter, etc.), or when we receive it from third parties, such as our clients.

There may be instances in which the information that we collect is considered sensitive personal information under the laws of the country or state in which you reside. As a general matter, we only collect sensitive personal information when it is necessary or when you provide it to us voluntarily (e.g., in a resume).

Types of Information, Purpose for Collection, and Use of Information

The following are some examples of the type of information that we collect and what we use that information for:

Business Contacts. We collect business contact information, and billing information, from our clients and our potential clients for a legitimate business purpose. We use this information in order to provide products, services, or information about our products and services.
Potential Candidates. True Search gathers personal information about individuals who might be interested in a current, or future, position with a True Search client. Such information includes address, contact information, job role, function, social media presence, investment information, or work or educational experiences, and other information that may be included in a resume.
Email Interconnectivity. If you receive email from us, we may use certain tools to capture data related to when you open our message or click on any links or banners/images within it. We may also take the information in your emails and add it to our contacts and log it with our customer relationship management (CRM) system.

Online Activity. We use cookies and clear GIFs. “Cookies” are small pieces of information that a website sends to a computer’s hard drive while a website is viewed.

Among other things, cookies allow us to provide a more personal and interactive experience and to improve our marketing efforts. You may remove certain cookies as described here. If cookies are disabled some areas or features of our websites may not work properly. We allow our analytics partners to place cookies on our websites as described in this policy.

Other uses to which you consent.

Sharing of Information

In addition to the specific situations discussed elsewhere in this policy, we disclose information in the following situations:

Affiliates. We may share personal information with our affiliates in connection with processing your inquiries, providing services, and improving our products and services. In limited situations we may also share business contact information with one of our affiliated companies so that they can provide you with information concerning the products or services that they provide.

To help you, we will need to share some of your information with business partners that assist with employment searches, such as AboveBoard, Inc. Some of the business partners are our affiliates and others are non-affiliated businesses.
Clients. True Search may share information about potential candidates with our clients. True Search clients may use and disclose such information according to their respective privacy practices.
Other Potential Employers. We may share unsolicited resumes or solicitations from potential candidates with companies that may have an interest in such candidates.
Other Disclosures with Your Consent. We may ask if you would like us to share your information with other unaffiliated third parties who are not described elsewhere in this policy.

Such recipients must agree to abide by confidentiality obligations and are not permitted to use your personal information except for the limited purpose that we request.
Third-Party Tracking Companies. We may share your information with third-party tracking companies, including analytics partners. These third parties may also collect information directly from you as described in this Privacy Policy over time and across different websites. The privacy policy of the third party company applies to their collection, use and disclosure of your information.
Corporate transactions. We may also share your information if another company acquires our company, business, or our assets, or in the event of a bankruptcy or reorganization.

Retention of Information

We retain personal information for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law, or an individual requests that we delete information about them.
In some circumstances, we may anonymize your personal information so that it can no longer be associated with you. We may retain and use this anonymized information for our business purposes.

Protecting Information

True Search uses reasonable organizational, technical and administrative measures designed to protect against unauthorized access, misuse, loss, disclosure, alteration and destruction of personal information we maintain. Unfortunately, data transmission over the Internet cannot be guaranteed as completely secure. Therefore, while True Search strives to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of personal information. In the event that True Search is required to notify you about a situation involving your data, we may do so by email, telephone, or mail to the extent permitted by law.

Your Choices

You can make the following choices regarding your personal information:

Access, Transfer, Correction, and/or Deletion of Your Personal Information. You may request to access, transfer, correct, or delete the personal information that True Search has collected about you by writing to the contact listed below under the section titled “Contact Information.” When we delete personal information, it will be removed from our active database, but it may remain in archives where it is not practical or possible to delete it.
Ability to restrict or object to processing. You may request to restrict our continued processing of your personal information or object to our reliance on legitimate interests as the basis of our processing of your personal information. If we receive an objection, we will evaluate whether we are required by law to discontinue such processing.
Online Tracking. You may opt out of certain third-party online tracking as described here. We do not currently recognize automated browser signals regarding tracking mechanisms, which may include “Do Not Track” instructions.
Promotional Emails. You may choose to provide us with your email address for the purpose of allowing us to send free newsletters, surveys, offers, and other promotional materials to you, as well as targeted offers from third parties. You can stop receiving promotional emails by following the unsubscribe instructions in emails that you receive or contacting us. If you decide not to receive promotional emails, we may still send you service-related communications.
Opt-Out / Revocation of Consent. If we rely on your consent to process personal information, you may revoke that consent by contacting us. Note that in some situations we may no longer be able to provide you services if you revoke your consent; we may also limit or deny your request to revoke consent if the law permits or requires us to do so, or if we are unable to adequately verify your identity.
Different Purposes. If we use your information for a materially different purpose than the purpose for which we collected it, we will notify you, as required by law.

Transmitting Information to Other Countries

Personal information may be processed in a country where you do not reside that has privacy laws that may be less stringent than the laws in your country. Where possible, we take steps to treat personal information using the same privacy principles that apply pursuant to the law of the country in which we first received your information. By submitting your personal information to us, you agree to the transfer, storage and processing of your information in a country other than your country of residence including, but not necessarily limited to, the United States. If you would like more information concerning our attempts to apply the privacy principles applicable in one jurisdiction to data when it goes to another jurisdiction you can contact us.
