Privacy Policy | Job Path Step

Our Approach to Data Collection and Usage

To tailor your experience and improve our services, we collect both personal and behavioral data. The personal information you provide such as your full name, email address, job details, or other identifiers is used to offer you customized support and features.

In addition to what you share, we track how you use our website or app: which pages your visit, your search activity, and other user interactions. This data may be used alone or in combination with data from third parties to refine our content and offerings.

To further safeguard privacy, we may convert your information into a de-identified or aggregated format, removing any direct links to you or your device. This allows us to analyze trends and behaviors on a broad scale.

Aggregated Data and Compliance Requirements

We collect and share Aggregated Data, which consists of statistical or demographic information derived from Personal Information but stripped of any details that could identify you. This kind of data is used broadly for improving services or research. For example, by pooling usage data, we can identify what portion of users access site features without exposing individual identities.

Should laws or our contractual agreement require specific Personal Information, and you do not provide it when requested, we may not be able to deliver the service you expect. In such cases, termination of your service may be necessary, which you accept as a term of service use.

Data Collection Practices

We collect Personal Data about you through several methods. As you use our website, we may automatically gather both Personal and Non-Personal Data, including Technical and Usage Data about your device and browsing patterns. This is done via cookies, server logs, and similar technologies. If you visit other websites employing our tracking tools, we might also collect data from those visits. More information is available in the “Cookies and Similar Technologies” section.
We might also receive Technical and Usage Data from third parties such as analytics firms. For clients, we may enhance Business Information you provide with data sourced externally, which can include Contact and Business details about individuals who don’t directly use our services.
When acting as a service provider on behalf of clients, we process Personal Data as instructed by them and don’t establish a direct relationship with the individuals. If you want to request access or updates to your data, we’ll share the relevant client contact information, though sometimes we might help you directly.

How We Use Your Personal Information

We collect and process your personal information for the following reasons:

To Provide Services: We need your personal details to deliver the services you’ve requested. This information may be shared with necessary third parties or partners to fulfill the service. Without it, we cannot process or provide the requested services.
To Address Inquiries: When you contact us with concerns or questions, we use your personal data to address your needs effectively. Without your personal information, we wouldn’t be able to respond or assist properly.
To Ensure Compliance and Security: Your personal information is processed to monitor activities, prevent misuse, and enforce agreements. We also collect fees based on your use of our services, and without processing this information, our service agreements would be compromised.
For Service Protection: We process your data to protect against security threats such as malware and unauthorized access. Verifying your identity and improving overall security measures also depend on your personal information.
To Personalize Your Experience: We offer third-party services and customization options, which rely on your data for personalization. For more details on how we use cookies and similar technologies, refer to our Cookie Policy. Without this information, certain features of our services may not be available.

In the future, if we decide to use your information in any new ways, we will inform you and give you the option to limit its use, though some services may not be available if you do so.

How We Share Your Information

We may disclose your personal data to a range of parties for operational and business purposes. This could involve potential employers, third-party service providers, affiliates, legal bodies, and other relevant third parties. The recipients are accountable for protecting and using your information according to their privacy policies. Your data may also be shared for legal reasons, to uphold our rights or user safety, or as part of corporate transactions such as mergers, acquisitions, or other business reorganizations.

Your Rights and Choices

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may hold various rights concerning your personal data. These include requesting access, corrections, deletion, or opting out of certain uses of your personal information. These rights could be limited by applicable laws. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at admin@jobpathstep.com, and we will respond timely in accordance with the law.

Links to Third-Party Websites

Our website may link to third-party sites or services, which are governed by their own privacy policies. We do not oversee these external sites and cannot guarantee their privacy or security standards. While we strive to recommend only reputable sites, we advise you to review their privacy policies when visiting any third-party website.

Security and Data Retention

We employ a combination of technical, physical, and administrative controls to protect your data from unauthorized access, loss, or alteration. Although we take extensive precautions, no method of data transfer or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security. We retain your personal information only for as long as needed to provide services, comply with legal obligations, handle disputes, and enforce agreements. Cached or archived copies might also be kept temporarily.

Changes to This Policy

From time to time, we may update this Privacy Policy to accommodate changes in our business practices, technology, or legal requirements. Updated versions will be posted on our services, and we suggest reviewing the policy regularly to stay aware of how your data is managed and your rights.

California Residents Privacy Rights

If you reside in California, you have rights under the CCPA, including the ability to access, delete, or opt out of the sale of your personal data. To exercise these rights, please contact us at admin@jobpathstep.com.
