In contrast to cookies, which are stored on your computer’s hard drive, clear GIFs are embedded invisibly on web and app pages. We may use clear GIFs (a.k.a. web beacons, web bugs or pixel tags), in connection with our Website to, among other things, track the activities of Website visitors and app users, help us manage content, and compile statistics about Website usage. We and our third-party service providers also use clear GIFs in HTML e-mails to our customers, to help us track e-mail response rates, identify when our e-mails are viewed, and track whether our e-mails are forwarded.

Third-Party Analytics. We use automated devices and applications, such as Google Analytics, which are operated by third party companies, to evaluate usage of our Website and Services. These third-party analytics companies use cookies, pixels, and other tracking technologies to collect usage data about our Services to provide us with reports and metrics that help us evaluate usage of our Services, improve our Websites, and enhance performance and user experiences.

5. California Privacy Rights

This section provides additional information for California residents pursuant to the California Consumer Privacy Act 2018 as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act 2020 and its implementing regulations (the “CCPA“). To the extent you are a resident of California, including our customers and business-to-business contacts, and we collect Personal Information subject to CCPA, the following section applies.

The Right to Know/Access

With respect to the Personal Information we have collected about you, you have the right to request (up to twice per year and subject to certain exemptions):

• The categories or Personal Information we collected about you;
• The categories of sources from which the Personal Information is collected;
• Our business or commercial purposes for collecting, selling, or sharing Personal Information;
• The categories of third parties to whom we disclosed Personal Information; and
• A copy of the specific pieces of Personal Information we have collected about you.

The Right to Delete

You have the right to request we delete your Personal Information. Please note, we are not obligated to delete Personal Information that is necessary to provide services you request or to comply with applicable laws. Please further note that simply logging out or uninstalling an app does not delete your account or the Personal Information we may have collected.

The Right to Correct

You have the right to request that we correct inaccuracies in your Personal Information. You may update your Personal Information with us at any time by using the methods described in Section 5 above.

The Right to Opt-Out

California residents may have the right to opt-out of “sales” or “sharing” of their Personal Information under the CCPA. CCPA defines a “sale” as disclosing or making Personal Information available to a third-party in exchange for monetary or other valuable consideration. CCPA also defines “sharing” as disclosing or making available Personal Information to a third party for purposes of cross-context behavioral advertising. While we do not disclose Personal Information to third parties in exchange for monetary compensation, we may “sell” or “share” (as defined by the CCPA) Personal Information, such as identifiers and internet and electronic network activity information to third-party analytics providers. We do so in order to improve and evaluate our Website and better reach customers and prospective customers with more relevant content.

Please note that submitting an opt out request will only opt you out of disclosures that are considered “sales” or “sharing” under the CCPA, but it will not opt out of other disclosures, such as to our service providers.

You also have the right to opt-out of “sales” and “sharing” of your Personal Information through the use of an opt-out preference signal. If we detect that your browser or device is transmitting an opt-out preference signal, such as the “global privacy control”—or GPC—signal, we will opt that browser or device out of cookies that result in a “sale” or “sharing” of your Personal Information. If you visit our Website from a different device or from a different browser on the same device, you will need to opt-out, or use an opt-out preference signal, for that browser and/or device as well.

We do not sell or share sensitive Personal Information, nor do we sell or share any Personal Information about individuals who we know are under sixteen (16) years old.

Right to Limit Use and Disclosure

Subject to certain conditions and exceptions, you may have the right to limit the use and disclosure of “Sensitive Personal Information,” as defined under the CPRA. However, we do not engage in activities triggering this right.

The Right to Non-Discrimination

We will not unlawfully discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights.

How to Exercise Your Privacy Rights

To submit a request to exercise these rights you may use one of the following two methods:

• Click here to Exercise Your Rights
• Telephone: 800.605.8304

For all requests, please clearly state that the request is related to “Your California Privacy Rights,” indicate which type of request you are making, and provide your name, street address, city, state, zip code, and email address or phone number where you may be contacted. Before responding to your request, we must first verify your identity using the Personal Information you recently provided to us. If we are not able to verify your request we will contact you for more information. If we are unable to verify your identity after a good faith attempt, we may deny the request and, if so, will explain the basis for the denial. We are not responsible for notices that are not labeled or sent properly or that do not include complete information.

Designating an Authorized Agent

You may designate someone to submit requests and act on your behalf (an “Authorized Agent“). To do so, you must provide us with written permission to allow your Authorized Agent to act on your behalf. We may also ask you directly to verify that you have authorized your authorized agent to act on your behalf.

6. Retention of Personal Information

We retain your Personal Information for as long as needed, or permitted, based on the reason we obtained it (consistent with applicable law). When deciding how long to keep your Personal Information, we consider whether we are subject to any legal obligations (e.g., any laws that require us to keep records for a certain period of time before we can delete them) or whether we have taken any legal positions that require data retention (e.g., issued any legal holds or otherwise need to preserve data). From time to time, we may also deidentify your Personal Information, retain it, and use it in compliance with CCPA.

7. Children’s Information

Our Website and Services are intended for users who are 18 years or older and we do not knowingly collect information from children under 18 years old. If we become aware that we have collected information from a child under 18 years old, we will delete such information from our records. If you are a parent or legal guardian and believe your child has given us information and you did not provide consent, please contact us at privacy@employbridge.com. 

8. Security

We have implemented safeguards that are intended to protect the Personal Information that we collect from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. Please be aware that despite our efforts, no data security measures can guarantee security.

9. Changes to this Policy

This Privacy Policy is reviewed and updated regularly. If we change this Policy, we will post the updated Privacy Policy here, and those changes will go into effect on the “last updated” date shown above. We will take your continued use of our Services to mean you accept the terms of the updated Policy.
