PRIVACY STATEMENT

HappyCareer.com's Privacy Commitment - Overview
HappyCareer is committed to protecting the privacy of our users. We want to provide a safe, secure user experience. We will use our best efforts to ensure that the information you submit to us remains private, and is used only for the purposes as set forth herein.

The Following Reflects Our Commitment To You
This notice applies to all information collected or submitted on the HappyCareer.Com. The BBB Online privacy certification only applies to the HappyCareer.com websites directed at the US  Websites.

Information About All HappyCareer.Com Visitors
In general, we gather information about all of our users collectively, such as what areas users visit most frequently and what services users access the most. We only use such data anonymously and in the aggregate. This information helps us determine what is most beneficial for our users, and how we can continually create a better overall experience for you. We may share this information with our partners, but only in the aggregate, so that they too may understand how Happycareer.com visitors use our site, so they may create a better overall experience for you, as well.

Information About You Specifically
In some instances, when you sign up to use a service, enter into a contest, or purchase a product, for example, we may need more specific information about you, such as name, address, e-mail address, telephone number, credit card number, type of computer, etc. If you give us permission, we may use that information to make you aware of additional products and services that may be of interest to you or to contact you regarding site changes.

Happycareer.com also provides you with the opportunity to opt-out of these types of communications. If you choose to receive these types of communications at the time of registration, but later decide you no longer want to receive them, simply log in to your My Happycareer account and edit your account preferences.

During your visit to Happycareer.com, we may also ask you for other information, such as information on your interests, your likes and dislikes regarding the site, the types of jobs you are interested in, etc., in an effort to deliver to you the best possible site experience.

General Information Disclosure
Except as described in this privacy policy, we do not disclose information about your individual visits to Happycareer.com, or personal information that you provide, such as your name, address, e-mail address, telephone number, credit card number, personal references, etc., to any outside parties, except when we believe it is required by law or to protect Happycareer.com, our users or others. But, we may record and share aggregated information with our partners. Also, if you input your information on a co-branded registration page, such as that of a HappyCareer.com and partner company-sponsored contest, then your information becomes the property of both HappyCareer.com and the partner co-sponsoring the contest. In that instance, the use of your personal information by our partner company will be subject to the privacy policy of that company and HappyCareer.com is not responsible for their use of your personal information.

We employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf. Examples may include hosting our web servers, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, processing credit card payments, and providing customer service. These other companies will have access to your personal information as necessary to perform their functions, but they may not share that information with any third party.

Resumes
Since HappyCareer.com is a career site, we give you the option of putting your resume in our database. There are two ways of doing this:

  1. You can store your resume in our database, but not allow it to be searchable by potential employers. Not allowing your resume to be searchable means that you can use it to apply for a job online, but employers and recruiters will not have access to search it through our resume database product.
  2. If you allow your resume to be searchable, then all employers and recruiters who pay for access to our resume database product will have access to your resume.
We use our best efforts to grant access to this database only to paying employers, recruiters, hiring managers, headhunters, and human resource professionals, but cannot guarantee that other parties will not, without our consent, gain access to this database. You may remove your resume from our searchable database at any time. However, employers and recruiters who have paid for access to the database, and other parties who have otherwise gained access to the database, may have retained a copy of your resume in their own files or databases. We are not responsible for the retention, use, or privacy of resumes in these instances, or for the use or privacy of resumes by any of such parties while resumes are in the database.

Updating Account Information
HappyCareer.com allows you to change or correct your personal information at any time. To do so, simply log into your My Happycareer account, go to your account profile, and you will find options for editing the information you have submitted.

Feedback
Happycareer.com has an area on the site where you can submit feedback. Any feedback that is submitted through this area becomes the property of Happycareer.com. We may use this feedback, such as success stories, for marketing purposes, or to contact you for further feedback on the site.

Children
We do not specifically collect information about children. We believe that children should get their parents' consent before giving out personal information. If you are concerned about your child's use of Happycareer.com, we encourage you to use Web filtering technology to supervise your child's access to the site. We also encourage you to participate in your child's experience with Happycareer.com. With a little guidance, the site can prove very useful in finding a part time or summer job for your child, as well as providing them with excellent career counseling information.

Privacy Commitment Changes
If we decide to change our privacy commitment for Happycareer.com, we will post those changes here so that you will always know what information we gather, how we might use that information, and whether we will disclose it to anyone. If, at any time, you have questions or concerns about Happycareer.com's privacy commitment, please feel free to email us at webmaster@happycareer.com

Thank you for using Happycareer.com. We'll keep working hard to earn your loyalty.
