PLEASE READ THIS PRIVACY POLICY CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THE SERVICES
Vndly, Inc (“Vndly” or “we”), recognizes the importance of your privacy. This Privacy Policy outlines the types of Personally Identifying Information we gather when you use any website or electronic service made available by Vndly with this Privacy Policy (each a “Service”) and how we use that information. It is important to review this Privacy Policy in its entirety.
As part of the operation of the Services, certain pieces of information are gathered about the users (individually, “you” or a “User” and collectively, “Users”). This Privacy Policy contains explanations regarding the types of information collected, what is done with such information, and how to correct or change the information.
The Information We Collect
Information you Provide to Vndly. We collect Personally Identifying Information that you provide to Vndly. “Personally Identifying Information” is information that individually identifies you, such as your name, physical address, phone number, e-mail address, information contained in a resume or C.V., citizenship and work authorization status, and any other information that would allow someone to identify or contact you. Vndly asks for your Personally Identifying Information so that it can provide recruiting services. Of course, you may choose not to provide Vndly with Personally Identifying Information. However, this choice may prevent Vndly from providing you with any recruiting services or otherwise helping to facilitate placement for a job or project.
Information Provided by Third Parties. We may receive information about job seekers and companies from third parties such as background check providers or from publicly available sources.
Sensitive Information. Although we seek to minimize the amount of sensitive Personally Identifying Information that we process, we may process such information as necessary to perform any services or as required under applicable law, such as for performing a criminal background check, drug or alcohol test, or for any equal opportunity monitoring or affirmative action program.
Information We Collect Automatically When You Use the Services. When you access or use the Services, we may automatically collect information about you, including:
- Usage and Log Data. Your IP address, browser, and activity on the Service.
- Data Collected Through Cookies and Similar Technologies. Like many online services, we use various technologies to collect usage data and store preferences. One such technology is called a cookie. A cookie is a small data file that is transferred to your computer’s hard disk. We may use both session cookies and persistent cookies to better understand how you interact with the Services and to monitor aggregate usage by our users and web traffic routing on the Services. Also, we may create a unique device or user ID for you and store it in a cookie so we can recognize you and customize your experience based on your preferences. Most web browsers are set to accept cookies by default. If you prefer, you can usually choose to set your browser to remove or reject browser cookies or to prompt you before accepting such a cookie. Please note that if you choose to remove or reject browser cookies, this could affect the availability or functionality of the Services. We may also use web beacons as part of the Services
Using the Information

- Provide, operate, maintain and improve the Service;
- Respond to your comments, questions, and requests and to provide customer service and support;

- Use of Aggregate or De-Identified Information. In addition to the individual data use described in this Privacy Policy, we may aggregate information about you and other individual users together, or otherwise de-identify the information about you, so that the information does not identify you personally. We may use information in these forms for a variety of purposes, including for research and analysis, administration of the Services, and advertising.
Sharing and Disclosure of Information
We will not share Personally Identifying Information about you with any third parties except as described in this Privacy Policy:

- Compliance with Laws. We may disclose your Personally Identifying Information to a third party if (1) we believe that disclosure is reasonably necessary to comply with any applicable law, regulation, legal process or governmental request, (2) to enforce our agreements, policies, or Terms of Use, and (3) to respond to an emergency which we believe in good faith requires us to disclose such information to assist in preventing the death or serious bodily injury of any person.

Safeguards
Vndly protects your Personally Identifying Information by using safeguards that it has determined are appropriate to the sensitivity of the information. Unfortunately, neither Vndly’s network nor data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect a User’s information, Vndly cannot ensure or warrant the security of Personally Identifying Information or other information submitted through a 2 2233318.1.1 Service. Thus, any information a User transmits to us is done so at the User’s own risk.

Please be aware that information we collect through the Services may be transferred to and processed in the United States, where the privacy laws may not be as comprehensive as those in the country where you reside or are a citizen. By using the Services or providing us with any information, you acknowledge and consent to the transfer, processing, and storage of your information in the United States, or such other countries as we may choose in our sole discretion.
