How We Share Information

We provide you with a platform to broadcast information about yourself to maximize your career opportunities. The information we gather may be shared with the following categories of third parties:

  • employers, when you make your Profile searchable or apply to a position
  • other companies hired to provide services on C-Suite Diversity’s behalf
  • other third parties where required by law
  • other third parties when you give your consent to such sharing such as for Profile writing services

By applying to a position, providing your contact information to show interest in a position, or by replying to a message from an employer, you consent to the disclosure of your information to that employer and to be contacted by such employer for employment related purposes.

We do not share contact information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes unless you affirmatively agree to such disclosure. We also share information in the following ways

1. We share your information with our service providers, which are third parties who help deliver our products and services to you.

Examples of these services include hosting our web servers and site databases, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, providing customer management tools, processing credit card payments, and providing customer service. These companies will have access to your personal information as necessary to perform their functions, but they may not use that data for any other purpose. We will remain responsible for any information shared in this way.

2. We disclose information to third parties when you give your consent for us to do so. For example:

  • if you make your Profile searchable or if we collect information you’ve made available on a public website then all parties with access to our Profile or profile database products will have access to your information; or
  • if you opt in to receive information about the products or services of third parties, we supply your contact information to those third parties so they may contact you.

We also share aggregated information (including location data) about visitors to C-Suite Diversity sites and application users with third parties to serve advertisements to you online. We also aggregate data regarding position qualifications, schooling, age, experience level or other information relevant to the position search. This aggregated data does not identify users individually, and may be made available to employers or shared publicly. If we create a co-branded site with another company, information collected on that site will be retained by both companies and subject to the privacy policies of both companies which will be published on the co-branded sites.

3. We may disclose to third parties information that we have collected from other websites.

4. We disclose information if legally required to do so, or at our discretion pursuant to a request from a governmental entity or if we believe in good faith - after considering your privacy interests and other factors - that such action is necessary to: (a) meet legal requirements or comply with legal process; (b) protect our rights or property or our affiliated companies; (c) investigate fraud, prevent a crime or protect national security; or (d) protect the personal safety of users or the public.

5. We may disclose and transfer personal information to a third party who acquires any or all of C-Suite Diversity’s business units, whether such acquisition is by way of merger, consolidation or purchase of all or a substantial portion of our assets. In addition, in the event C-Suite Diversity becomes the subject of an insolvency proceeding, such information will be disposed of in a transaction approved by the court. You will be notified of the sale of all or a substantial portion of our business to a third party by email or through a prominent notice posted on the site.

An Important Note About Your Profile
When you create or post a Profile, we store it in our Profile and profile databases in the United States. You may control the status of your Profile on C-Suite Diversity by setting it to visible, limited, or private. Visible and limited Profiles can be viewed by anyone with access to our Profile and profile database. We cannot control the retention, use or privacy of Profiles that have been viewed or downloaded by others.

Private Profiles will not be visible in C-Suite Diversity's Profile and profile database, but information we acquire about you from a public website may be visible. You may still use your private Profile to apply online to a position. If you apply with a private Profile, it will be transferred to the relevant employer, who may retain a copy of it.

We attempt to limit access to our Profile and profile databases to legitimate users, but cannot guarantee that other parties will not gain access to these databases. Once your Profile has been disclosed, C-Suite Diversity 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 Profile or profile.

If your Profile includes personal data of a reference, it is your responsibility to ensure that the person is aware that you have forwarded his/her details and has consented in writing for you to do so.

Access to and Storage of Your Personal Information

Access to your Personal Data: You may access, update, or delete your Profile or profile at any time. To do so, sign in to your account, go to your Profile or profile, and make the desired changes. If you do not have an account, or if you believe that someone else has provided us with your contact information, please contact us. You also have the rights to data portability and to request that C-Suite Diversity restrict processing data about you.

You have the right to know whether C-Suite Diversity has collected personal information from you. You may submit up to two access requests within a 12-month period asking C-Suite Diversity to tell you:

  • the categories or specific pieces of personal information that C-Suite Diversity has collected from you
  • the categories of sources from which C-Suite Diversity has collected your information
  • the reasons why C-Suite Diversity collects personal information; and
  • the categories of third parties with which C-Suite Diversity shares personal information.

C-Suite Diversity does not "sell" your personal information as that term is defined by the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018.
You have the right to request that C-Suite Diversity delete any of your personal information that it has collected from you, with certain exceptions. We may refuse your deletion request if permitted by law. If we deny your deletion request, we will tell you why the request was denied. Additionally, if we determine that no exception to deletion applies, we will direct any of our service providers that have received your personal data to delete your personal information from their records as well.

Access to, or correction, update, or deletion of your personal information may be denied or limited by C-Suite Diversity if it would violate another person’s rights and/or as otherwise permitted by applicable law. C-Suite Diversity will not discriminate against you for exercising your privacy rights.

When you make a request, we will send you an email to confirm that we received it. We may retain your personal data even after you have closed your account if reasonably necessary to comply with our legal obligations (including law enforcement requests), meet regulatory requirements, resolve disputes, investigate security incidents, prevent fraud and abuse, enforce our User Agreement, or fulfill your request to “unsubscribe” from further messages from us. We will retain anonymized information after your account has been closed.

We will respond to information access requests within a reasonable timeframe. If we require additional time to provide access to your information, we will acknowledge receipt of your request within a reasonable timeframe and promptly supplement our response within the time period required by applicable law.
Some C-Suite Diversity customers store their Profile databases on C-Suite Diversity servers. C-Suite Diversity is a data processor for personal information received in this way. Requests regarding this information must be made to your potential or current employer. We will cooperate as appropriate with requests from our customers to assist with such responses.

Data Retention: Because managing your career is a life-long process, we retain all the information we gather about you in an effort to make repeat use of our sites more efficient, practical and relevant until you change or remove your personal information as described below. We may retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you services, comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

If you are located in the European Union and you do not sign in to your account or interact with our services for more than five years, your account will expire and be scheduled for removal from our site. Expired accounts are deleted on a routine basis. If your account contains a Profile, you will receive an email from us before we delete your Profile in this manner.

Security

You are responsible for keeping your username and password secret.

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

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