Introduction and General Concepts
We highly regard individual privacy rights and the safeguarding of personal information. Your privacy is of utmost importance to us, and ensuring the security of your personal information is a priority. To articulate our practices concerning the collection, use, and disclosure of your personal information, we've developed this Policy. A designated Privacy Officer oversees our compliance with this Policy, and information on contacting the Privacy Officer is provided below.
We collect user data to optimize the Platform's experience and ensure a secure environment for all users. You have the option to refrain from providing personal information. However, this choice may limit our ability to furnish the Service or the requested information. For instance, your email address is necessary to verify your User Account and send electronic notifications.
a. Personal Information
In the context of this Policy, "personal information" refers to identifiable details about an individual, encompassing elements like name, address, phone number, social insurance number, gender, income, and family status. Our collection, use, or disclosure of personal information adheres strictly to this Policy and complies with Applicable Privacy Laws.
b. General Information
"General information," excluded from this Policy, encompasses data other than personal information. It consists of anonymous or non-identifiable information, such as web browsing details (like the accessing domain or device information) and aggregate data (such as visitor counts or browsing patterns). Our collection, use, or disclosure of general information aligns with standard business practices and complies with applicable laws. However, this Policy exclusively addresses personal information handling.
c. Information about Minors
Our Service doesn't cater to minors, and individuals below the age of majority cannot register as Users. We consciously refrain from collecting personal information about individuals below the age of majority, typically under 18 or 19, varying by jurisdiction. Minors or their legal guardians should avoid submitting any personal information to us, whether through the Website, the Service, or any other means.

We ensure that your personal information is shared with third parties only in ways explicitly outlined within this Policy. We do not sell your personal details to third parties. However, as part of our Service, certain activities may necessitate the sharing or disclosure of your personal information. Some of these actions may involve storing or processing your personal information outside of Canada, including in the United States. Consequently, your personal information may be accessible to law enforcement and regulatory authorities in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act and other applicable laws in various jurisdictions.
a. Third-Party Service Providers
We may disclose your personal information to companies that assist us in delivering the Service, such as web hosting providers, payment processors, product shipping providers, fulfillment agencies, or customer service agencies ("Third-Party Service Providers"). These Third-Party Service Providers are authorized to use your personal information solely for providing these services to us, aligning with this Policy. While we have carefully selected Third-Party Service Providers committed to adhering to this Policy, they may have their own distinct policies concerning the collection and use of personal information. When collecting your personal information, we strive to identify these Third-Party Service Providers and provide links to their relevant privacy policies. Below are examples of the Third-Party Service Providers we utilize within our Service:
-
Our Service is physically hosted by Ionos by 1&1, a reputable hosting platform renowned for its industry-standard security practices.

At times, we might offer publicly accessible blogs or community forums via the Service.

​
Security of Personal Information
a. General Security Measures
The security of your personal information is a top priority for us. We adhere to widely accepted industry standards to safeguard the personal information you provide. We employ various physical, administrative, contractual, and technological measures to ensure the protection of personal information. We mandate that our Third Party Processors also maintain similar rigorous standards. Our personnel, along with those of our Third Party Processors, are granted access to personal information solely for the necessary duties and within strict limitations.
b. Online Security
When sensitive information (e.g., credit card numbers) is entered into our forms, we utilize secure socket layer technology (SSL) to encrypt the transmission of that data. SSL encrypts information before it's sent over the Internet, ensuring secure transmission to and from our site. Additionally, any personal information we store is maintained in encrypted form. While we take stringent security measures, it's important to note that no method of transmission or electronic storage is entirely foolproof. Exercise caution when sharing sensitive information online. If you have security-related inquiries about our Platform, feel free to reach out to us at support@jobipro.com.
