The Website uses tools to enhance collection and enable sharing of usage data, namely cookies, web beacons and Javascript.
When you access the Website, both session cookies and permanent cookies may be placed on your computer. Cookies are small non-executable files stored on your computer that allow webservers to recognize your web browser. Session cookies are active only during the period you are logged on to the Website and are removed when you leave. Session cookies help EightSix track the areas of the Website that you access to allow EightSix to make improvements in keeping with observed user preferences. Permanent cookies remain on your computer until you remove them through your browser’s Internet security settings. Permanent cookies are used to store persistent information that helps to personalize your site experience and save you time. For example, permanent cookies enable the Website to tell whether you have already seen an advertisement or information notice, and this information can be used to avoid showing you things you have already seen. Cookies placed when you access the Website may come from EightSix’s web servers and web servers operated the third parties (such as Google) that provide content (such as advertisements) and services (such as Website traffic analysis) related to the Website.
Certain pages on the Website contain “web beacons” (also known as Internet tags, pixel tags and clear GIFs). Web beacons allow third parties (such as Facebook) to obtain information such as the IP address of the computer that downloaded the page on which the beacon appears, the URL of the page on which the beacon appears, the time the page containing the beacon was viewed, the type of browser used to view the page, and the information in cookies set by the third party.
Certain pages on the Website use JavaScript to implement effects (such as image roll-overs and pull-down menu navigation) and to help EightSix gather information about how the Website is being used (such as by counting how often links are followed).
You may be able to block cookies, avoid loading web beacons, and disable Javascript by adjusting the settings of your Web browser. If you do this, your ability to access the Website and use the Service may be affected. Please consult the following links for instructions on doing so for the following popular browsers: Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, Mozilla FireFox, Safari Desktop, Safari Mobile, Android.
Usage data, including usage data derived from cookies, web beacons and Javascript, may be stored and shared with third parties. EightSix collects and permits others to collect this data so that it can understand what kinds of people are accessing the Website, how these people are using the Service, and how effective advertising and posting jobs on the Website is. In general, EightSix may collect, use and disclose usage data for one or more of the Purposes.
EightSix does not associate cookies or usage data obtained through your use of the Website with your personal information.
In fulfilling the Purposes, EightSix may use your personal information to, among other things:
EightSix may disclose your Profile, which includes your personal information that you have provided for it, to registered employers.
As a condition of receiving Profiles, EightSix requires employers to agree to keep information contained in Profiles confidential and to use information contained in Profiles only for purposes reasonably necessary to determine your suitability for employment in their businesses. However, EightSix cannot monitor employers’ use and retention of your Profile information, and it is possible that employers may retain a copy of your Profile or distribute it to third parties. EightSix accepts no responsibility for the actions of employers.
Your personal information can be disclosed to employers in two ways:
EightSix may disclose your personal information to service providers that help deliver the Service. Such service providers may include those responsible for hosting the Website, analyzing customer data, providing marketing assistance, processing credit card payments, and providing customer service and/or technical support. These service providers may not be located in Canada, and they will have the access to your personal information that is necessary to perform their functions. EightSix takes reasonable measures to ensure that these service providers do not share your personal information with any other third party or use your personal information for any purpose other than the Purposes outlined above.
EightSix may disclose your personal information where required to do so by law or in circumstances where disclosure is authorized by relevant provincial or federal legislation.
EightSix will not use or disclose your personal information for purposes other than the Purposes outlined above without your explicit consent or as required or authorized by law.
