TechRooted will retain your personal information for fifteen (15) years after the last time you interact with our services at which time it will be automatically deleted from our systems unless we are legally required to keep it longer. You may request that TechRooted delete your data at any time by submitting a Personal Data Request . See the section entitled Your Privacy Rights for more information.

Resume Visibility and Security: Some of our products and services, such as our resume and profile databases, and social media search enable third parties to see your personal data and to contact you. Information you post in public areas of TechRooted sites or applications or make visible in the resume and profile database may be accessed, used, and stored by others around the world, including those in countries that might not have legislation that guarantees adequate protection of personal data as defined by your country of residence. While TechRooted takes measures to safeguard your information from unauthorized access or inappropriate use, TechRooted does not control these third parties and we are not responsible for their use of information you post.

When you create or post a resume, we store it in our resume and profile databases in the United States. You may control the visibility of your resume on TechRooted by setting it to:

• Visible,
• Confidential, or
• Private.

Visible and confidential resumes can be viewed by anyone with access to our resume and profile database. We cannot control the retention, use or privacy of resumes that have been viewed or downloaded by others. You should not post sensitive information about yourself, for example gender, marital status, health data, or any other information you would not want made public, such as your address or phone number, to any TechRooted site or application or to any public website. You may adjust your visibility settings at any time by signing into your TechRooted account and selecting visibility settings. Private resumes will not be visible in TechRooted’s resume and profile database. You may still use your private resume to apply online to a job. If you apply with a private resume, it will be transferred to the relevant employer, who may retain a copy of it.

If you apply for a job and provide your contact information to express interest in a job, or if you respond to a communication from an employer, you agree that your information will be shared with the relevant employer and that you will be contacted by that employer for employment-related purposes.

We attempt to limit access to our resume and profile databases to legitimate users but cannot guarantee that other parties will not gain access to these databases. Once your resume has been disclosed, TechRooted is not able to retrieve it from the third parties who accessed it. Accordingly, you should not put sensitive information, personality profiles, or other information you would not want made public in your resume or profile.

If your resume includes the personal data of a reference, it is your responsibility to ensure that the person is aware that you have provided their details and that person has consented for you to do so.

You are responsible for keeping your username and password secret.

The security of your personal data is important to us. We utilize a variety of safeguards to protect the personal data submitted to us, both during transmission and once it is received. TechRooted takes appropriate measures to secure your personal data from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration, or disclosure. You can find additional information on conducting a safe job search in our Security Center.

You should be aware that resumes and profiles may be monitored by your current employer.

When you place an order online at TechRooted, your credit card information is encrypted with industry standard encryption.

TechRooted is not intended for, nor do we knowingly collect information from, children under the age of 16.
