Pipeline Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains the collection, use, and disclosure of Personal Information through the websites of Futures Inc. Personal Information means information that would allow a party to identify or contact you, including, for example, your full name, address, telephone number, or email address.

Your privacy is important to us. Our goal is to earn and keep your trust, according to the following principles:

• We will never rent or sell your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes.
• We will never share your contact information with a recruiter or hiring manager, unless you affirmatively elect to release or provide your personal profile information regarding an open position, inquiry or opportunity.
• Any sensitive information (such as income level or credit card information) that you provide will be secured with all industry standard protocols and technology.

If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes to this Privacy Policy, the homepage, and other places we deem appropriate so that you are aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it. We reserve the right to modify this Privacy Policy at any time, so please review it frequently. If we make material changes to this policy, we will notify you here, by email, or by means of a notice on our homepage.

Disclosure of Personal Information

We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties ever. We may disclose aggregated information about the use of our website, which does not contain Personal Information. However, we may share Personal Information with our contractors and service providers in order to maintain, enhance, or add to the functionality of the website. We may also share Personal Information with companies which control, are controlled by, or are under common control with, Futures Inc. In the case of criminal investigations, including but not limited to fraud or alleged illegal activity, we may also be obligated to share Personal Information with law enforcement, government, and/or credit card issuers.

If this website becomes part of another organization, that organization will possess the Personal Information collected by this website and it will assume the rights and obligations regarding your Personal Information as described in this Privacy Policy.

We use third parties to provide Web analytics on our site. When you sign up for this website, we will share aggregate click data as necessary for the third party to provide that service. These third parties are prohibited from using your Personal Information for any other purpose.

Information We Collect and How We Use That Information

In some areas of our website, users are asked to provide contact information, such as name, email address, and zip code. This information is part of your personal profile and we may use such information for data analysis and general demographic information.

Should you choose to purchase services, your credit card information will be stored. We use this information for billing purposes only. If we have trouble processing your order, we will use your information to contact you. We use third parties to provide credit card processing services on our site. These third parties are prohibited from using your credit card information for any other purpose.

Sensitive information such as your income level and credit card information will be kept private and will not be disclosed to third parties except our contractors and service providers as necessary.

While building your personal profile you will be asked to provide Personal Information. You may also provide a detailed resume. Your resume as well as your Personal Information will only be viewed by third parties at your election, unless we are legally obligated to disclose such information as described below.

In your use of our website, we also store such information as jobs you’ve applied to, jobs you’ve viewed, your resume, and similar information. We track clickstream data to monitor utilization and ensure first-class customer experience.

We post customer reviews on our website, which may contain Personal Information such as the customer’s name. We will obtain the customer’s consent prior to posting the review to post their name along with their review.

We may be legally obligated to disclose Personal Information to the government or to third parties when required by law or in the good-faith belief that such action is necessary in order to conform to applicable law or comply with legal process served on this website. Additionally, although we employ industry-standard security measures, third parties may circumvent our security measures to unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications. As such, we cannot guarantee that your Personal Information will not be disclosed to third parties.

If you wish to subscribe to our email communications, we will use your name and email address to send the newsletter to you. Out of respect for your privacy, we provide you a way to unsubscribe. Please see the Opt-out section.

Please go to Notification Settings and follow the instructions there in order to opt-out of communications from us.

Internet Protocol Address

Like most websites, we collect Internet Protocol (IP) addresses from all visitors to the website. An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer when you use the Internet. We use IP addresses to help diagnose problems with our server, administer our website, analyze trends, track users movement, gather broad demographic information for aggregate use in order for us to improve the website, and deliver customized, personalized content.

Use of Cookies

Again like most websites, we may use cookies to enhance your experience on our website. Cookies are pieces of information that some websites transfer to the computer that is browsing that website and are used for record-keeping purposes. Use of cookies makes web-surfing easier by performing certain functions such as saving your passwords and your personal preferences regarding your use of the particular website. We may link the information we store in cookies to any Personal Information you submit while on our site. Many consider the use of cookies to be an industry standard.

Your browser is probably set to accept cookies. However, if you would prefer not to receive cookies, you can alter the configuration of your browser to refuse cookies. If you choose to have your browser refuse cookies, our website may not function properly.

Updating Your Personal Information

If your Personal Information changes, or if you no longer desire our service, you may correct, update, or deactivate it by making the change on your Account Settings page or by emailing our Customer Support at help@futuresinc.com.

Use of Web Beacons

Our website may contain electronic images known as web beacons (sometimes called single-pixel gifs) that allow us to count users who have visited those pages. Web beacons are not used to access Personal Information; they are a technique we use to compile aggregated statistics about our website usage. Web beacons collect only a limited set of information including a cookie number, time and date of a page view, and a description of the page on which the web beacon resides. You may not decline web beacons, however, they can be rendered ineffective by declining all cookies or modifying your browser setting to notify you each time a cookie is tendered and permit you to accept or decline cookies on an individual basis.

Security

The security of your Personal Information is important to us. This website has implemented and follows industry standard measures to protect against unauthorized access to and unlawful interception or processing of Personal Information. We also protect account information by placing it on a secure portion of our website that is only accessible by certain qualified employees of this website. When you enter sensitive information (such as income level and credit card information) on our registration or order forms, we encrypt that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL). Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your Personal Information, we cannot ensure or warranty the security of any such Personal Information.

Other Websites

Our website contains links to other websites. Please note that when you click on one of these links, you are entering another website over which our website has no control and will bear no responsibility. Often these sites require you to enter your personal information as you apply for a job directly with the hiring company. We encourage you to read the privacy statements on all such websites as their policies may differ from ours.

Safe Harbor Framework

This website plans to participate in the Department of Commerce’s Safe Harbor Framework arising out of the U.S. implementation of the European Union Data Protection Directive. We have begun the process for certification of our adherence to the Safe Harbor Privacy Principles for each of our websites. For more information about the Safe Harbor Privacy Principles and to view our certification, once received, visit the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Safe Harbor website. If you would like to contact us directly about the Safe Harbor program, please send an e-mail to safeharbor@Futuresinc.com.
