We use personal data as necessary for the facilitation and performance of our Services; to comply with our legal and contractual obligations; and to support our legitimate interests in maintaining and improving our Services; providing customer service and technical support; and protecting and securing our Users, Candidates, partners, investors, ourselves, and our Services.

If you reside or are using the Services in a territory governed by privacy laws under which consent is the only or most appropriate legal basis for the processing of personal data (in general, or specifically with respect to the types of personal data you expect or elect to process or have processed by, or via the Services, e.g. ‘special categories’ under the GDPR), providing such personal data and using the Services, as well as your acceptance of our Terms and Conditions and this Privacy Policy will be deemed as your consent to the processing of your personal data for all purposes detailed in this policy.

Generally, we use personal data as processors, which means that we will use it on behalf of our Customer and in order to provide them with our Services. When we use personal data as processors, the processing of such data is also governed by the agreement we have with our Customers, partners, or investors. However, we use certain personal data, such as User Profile Information, Video Data and the Website Visitor, CRM & Prospect Data as a data controller, which means that we will use such personal data for our own purposes, such as improving and enhancing our platform and Services.

While privacy laws may vary between jurisdictions, RecruitGenius.ai and its Service Providers are each committed to protect personal data in accordance with this Privacy Policy, reasonable and customary industry standards, and such appropriate lawful mechanisms and contractual terms requiring adequate data protection, regardless of any lesser legal requirements that may apply in the jurisdiction to which such data is transferred. For data transfers from the EU or the UK we have entered into Standard Contractual Clauses. You can obtain a copy by contacting us as indicated in Section 10 below.

4. Data Sharing

Legal Compliance: In exceptional circumstances, we may disclose or allow government and law enforcement officials access to your personal data, in response to a subpoena, search warrant or court order (or similar requirement) and where such disclosure is necessary to comply with applicable laws and regulations. Such disclosure or access may occur if we believe in good faith that: (a) we are legally compelled to do so; (b) disclosure is appropriate in connection with efforts to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding actual or suspected illegal activity, fraud, or other wrongdoing; or (c) such disclosure is required to protect the security or integrity of our Services.

Service Providers: We engage selected third-party companies and individuals to perform services complementary to our own. Such Service Providers may provide hosting and server co-location services, communications and content delivery networks (CDNs), billing and payment processing services, data and cyber security services, fraud detection and prevention services, web and mobile analytics, e-mail, text messages and web/mobile notification distribution, monitoring and analytics services, data optimization and marketing services, social and advertising networks, content providers, e-mail, voicemails, support and customer relation management systems, call and session recording services, and our legal, financial and compliance advisors (collectively, “Service Providers“).

These Service Providers may have access to your personal data, depending on each of their specific roles and purposes in facilitating and enhancing our Services, and may only use it for such limited purposes as determined in our agreements with them. Should you decide to directly engage with any of RecruitGenius.ai’s Service Providers, please note that such engagement is beyond the scope of the terms applicable to your engagement with RecruitGenius.ai, including this Privacy Policy, and will therefore be covered by the Service Provider’s terms and policies.

Our Service Providers shall be deemed as ‘processors’ in circumstances where RecruitGenius.ai assumes the role of ‘controller’; and where RecruitGenius.ai acts as the ‘processor’, the Service Provider shall be deemed our ‘sub-processor’, as further described in Section 9 below.

Third Party Websites and Services: Our Services may also include links to third-party websites, and integrations with third party services. Such websites and third-party services, and any information you process, submit, transmit or otherwise use with such websites and third-party services, are governed by such third party’s terms and privacy practices and policies, and not by this Privacy Policy. We encourage you to carefully read the terms and privacy policies of such website and third-party services.
 
Sharing data between Users and Candidates: In order to provide our Services, we also share certain details about Users and Candidates with each other. This is required to connect between Users and Candidates based on job applications, preferences, location, profession, roles, work experience, or other parameters.

Sharing of data between Users from the same Customer: In order to provide our Services, Users relating to the same Customer may elect to share personal data pertaining to Candidates with each other. This is required to assist in the recruitment process.

Protecting Rights and Safety: We may share your personal data with others if we believe in good faith that this will help protect the rights, property, or personal safety of RecruitGenius.ai, any of our Users, partners or Candidates, or any members of the general public.

RecruitGenius.ai Subsidiaries and Affiliated Companies: We may share personal data internally within our group of companies, for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. In addition, should RecruitGenius.ai or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates undergo any change in control or ownership, including by means of merger, acquisition or purchase of substantially all or part of its assets, your personal data may be shared with the parties involved in such an event. If we believe that such change in control might materially affect your personal data then stored with us, we will notify you of this event and the choices you may have via e-mail or prominent notice on our Services.

For the avoidance of doubt, RecruitGenius.ai may share your personal data in additional manners, pursuant to your explicit approval, or if we are legally obligated to do so, or if we have rendered such data non-personal and/or anonymous.

5. Cookies & Tracking Technologies

Cookies are packets of information sent to your web browser and then sent back by the browser each time it accesses the server that sent the cookie. Some cookies are removed when you close your browser session. These are the “Session Cookies.” Some last for longer periods and called “Persistent Cookies.” We use both types.

We use Persistent Cookies to remember your log-in details and make it easier for you to log-in the next time you access the Services. We may use this type of cookies and Session Cookies for additional purposes, to facilitate the use of the Services’ features and tools.

Every browser allows you to manage your cookies preferences. Please bear in mind that disabling cookies may complicate or even prevent you from using certain parts of features of the Services. However, the use of cookies may be subject to additional rules including your consent, as further explained in our Cookie Policy.

Please note that if you get a new computer or device, install a new browser, erase or otherwise alter your browser’s cookie file (including upgrading certain browsers), you may also clear the opt-out cookies installed once you opt-out, so an additional opt-out will be necessary to prevent additional tracking.

6. Communications

Service Communications: We may send you notifications (through any of the means available to us, including by email, SMS or through our platform) of changes or updates to our Services, billing issues, service changes, etc. However, please note that you will not be able to opt-out of receiving certain service communications which are integral to the operation of our Services and your use thereof (like customer support communications).

We may provide such notices through any of the contact means available to us (e.g., phone, SMS, mobile notifications or e-mail), through the Services, or through our marketing campaigns on any other sites or platforms.
 
If you do not wish to receive such promotional communications, you may notify RecruitGenius.ai at any time by contacting us at [email protected] .

We and our hosting services implement systems, applications and procedures to secure your personal data, and to reduce the risks of theft, damage, loss of data, or unauthorized access or use of personal data. These measures are aimed to provide sound industry standard security. However, although we make efforts to protect your privacy, we cannot guarantee that the Services will be immune from any wrongdoings, malfunctions, unlawful interceptions or access, or other kinds of abuse and misuse.

8. Data Subject Rights

If you wish to exercise your rights under any applicable law to request access to, and rectification or erasure of your personal data held with [email protected], or to restrict or object to such personal data’s processing, or to port such personal data or to exercise the right to equal services and prices (each to the extent available to you under the laws which apply to you), please contact us at [email protected] .If you are a GDPR-protected individual, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with the relevant supervisory authority in the territory applicable to you.

When you ask us to exercise any of your rights under this policy or applicable law, we may need to ask you to provide us certain credentials to make sure that you are who you claim you are, to avoid disclosure to you of personal data related to others and to ask you to provide further information to better understand the nature and scope of the data to which your request pertains. Such additional information will be then retained by us for legal purposes (e.g., as proof of the identity of the person submitting the request), in accordance with Section 3 above.

We may redact from the data which we will make available to you, any personal data or confidential information related to others.

9. Controller/Processor

Certain data protection laws and regulations, such as the GDPR or the CCPA, typically distinguish between two main roles for parties processing personal data: the “controller” (or the “business” under the CCPA), which determines the purposes and means of processing; and the “data processor” (or the “service provider” under the CCPA), which processes the data on behalf of the controller. Below we explain how these roles apply to our Services, to the extent that such laws and regulations apply.

RecruitGenius.ai is the “data controller” of User Profile Information, Usage Information (whether related to Users, Candidates, Visitors, investors, partners, and prospects), Video Data, CV Data, Candidate Profile Information, Website Visitor, CRM & Prospect Data (i.e., the relevant Usage Information, Business Account Information, and Information Concerning our Prospects), Communications Data, and other personal data pertaining to our investors, visitors, and prospects, and assumes the responsibilities of a controller (solely to the extent applicable under the law), as set forth in this Privacy Policy. In such instances, our Service Providers processing such data will assume the role of “processor”.

RecruitGenius.ai is the “data processor” of Recruitment Process Data, whether related to a User or Candidate. In such instances, our Customers shall be deemed the “data controller” of such data, and RecruitGenius.ai will process such data on the Customers’ behalf, as its “data processor”, in accordance with its reasonable instructions, and the commercial and data processing agreements executed between RecruitGenius.ai and such Users (as applicable). RecruitGenius.ai’s Service Providers shall then act as designated sub-processors in these instances. RecruitGenius.ai’s Customers will be responsible for meeting any legal requirements applicable to controllers (such as obtaining their consent or establishing other legal basis for processing).

10.    Additional Notices & Contact Details

After such notice period, all amendments shall be deemed accepted by you.
