By accessing or using the Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to the practices described in this Policy. If you do not agree, you must discontinue use of the Services immediately.

Scope and Applicability

This Policy applies to all users of the Services, including job seekers, employers, recruiters, and any other individuals or entities interacting with Aptistry.

This Policy does not apply to third-party websites, services, or applications that may be linked or integrated with the Services. Such third parties operate independently and are governed by their own privacy policies, for which Aptistry assumes no responsibility or liability.

Information We Collect

Aptistry may collect personal information directly from you, automatically through your use of the Services, and from third-party sources.

Information you provide may include identifiers such as your name, email address, phone number, account credentials, profile data, resumes, employment history, education history, and any content you submit through the platform. Payment and billing details may be collected and processed through third-party payment processors.

Information collected automatically may include IP address, device identifiers, browser type, operating system, geolocation data, usage patterns, interaction logs, session data, and system performance information.

We may also derive or infer information based on your activity, including behavioral insights, engagement metrics, predictive analytics, and AI-generated classifications or scoring.

We may receive additional information from employers, recruiters, partners, service providers, publicly available sources, and data analytics providers.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, you acknowledge and agree that we may combine, enrich, and analyze information obtained from multiple sources.

Legal Bases for Processing

Where required under applicable law, Aptistry processes personal information based on legal grounds including your consent, the necessity to perform contractual obligations, legitimate business interests, compliance with legal obligations, and any other lawful basis recognized in applicable jurisdictions.

Where multiple legal bases apply, we may rely on any applicable basis at our discretion.

Purposes of Processing

We process personal information for a wide range of business and operational purposes, including providing, operating, maintaining, and improving the Services, enabling job matching and recruitment functionality, facilitating communication between users, developing and training artificial intelligence and machine learning systems, conducting analytics and research, improving system performance and user experience, ensuring security and fraud prevention, enforcing policies and agreements, and supporting marketing and advertising activities where legally permitted.

You acknowledge that processing may include profiling, automated decision-making, and algorithmic analysis.

Artificial Intelligence and Automated Processing

The Services rely on artificial intelligence and automated systems to analyze data, generate insights, and provide recommendations.

These systems may evaluate resumes, rank candidates, suggest job matches, and produce predictive insights. Such outputs are generated automatically and may not be reviewed or verified by humans.

You acknowledge that AI-generated outputs may be inaccurate, incomplete, or biased, and are provided for informational and operational purposes only. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Aptistry disclaims any liability arising from reliance on automated outputs.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies, pixels, SDKs, and similar technologies to operate the Services, authenticate users, maintain security, analyze usage, improve performance, and support personalization and advertising.

You may disable cookies through your browser settings, though certain features may not function properly as a result.

How We Share Information

We may share, disclose, or otherwise make personal information available to service providers, infrastructure partners, analytics providers, employers, recruiters, and other users as necessary to operate the platform.

We may also disclose information to affiliates, subsidiaries, or corporate partners, as well as in connection with mergers, acquisitions, financings, reorganizations, or asset transfers.

We may disclose information to governmental authorities, regulators, courts, or law enforcement when required by law or when necessary to protect rights, safety, or security.

We do not guarantee that third parties will maintain the same level of data protection.

To the extent permitted by law, certain disclosures may constitute “sale,” “sharing,” or “targeted advertising” under applicable privacy regulations.

International Data Transfers

The Services are operated globally. Your information may be transferred to, stored in, and processed in countries outside your jurisdiction, including jurisdictions that may not provide the same level of data protection as your home country.

By using the Services, you expressly consent to such transfers and processing.

Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Policy, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and support legitimate business operations.

We may retain anonymized or aggregated data indefinitely, and such data may no longer be considered personal information under applicable law.

Data Security

We implement commercially reasonable technical, administrative, and organizational measures designed to protect personal information.

However, no system is fully secure, and we do not guarantee the absolute security of any information transmitted to or from the Services. You acknowledge and accept the inherent risks of data transmission and storage.

Children’s Privacy

The Services are not directed to individuals under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors. If we become aware that such data has been collected, we may delete it without notice and without liability.

Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict the processing of your personal information, as well as rights to data portability and to withdraw consent where applicable.

We may require verification of your identity before responding to requests. We may deny or limit requests where permitted or required by law, including where compliance would adversely affect the rights of others or is technically infeasible.

California Privacy Rights

If you are a California resident, you may have additional rights under applicable California privacy laws, including the right to know what personal information we collect, the right to request deletion, and the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information, subject to legal limitations.

We will not discriminate against you for exercising your privacy rights.

Do Not Track Signals

The Services do not currently respond to browser “Do Not Track” signals due to lack of industry standardization.

Third-Party Services

The Services may contain links to or integrations with third-party websites, platforms, or services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of such third parties, and your use of such services is at your own risk.

Legal Compliance and Enforcement

We may access, use, preserve, and disclose personal information as required to comply with applicable laws, regulations, legal processes, or governmental requests, as well as to enforce our Terms, investigate violations, prevent fraud, and protect the rights, property, or safety of Aptistry, its users, or the public.

Business Transfers

In the event of a merger, acquisition, financing, sale of assets, bankruptcy, or similar corporate transaction, personal information may be transferred or disclosed as part of such transaction, and you acknowledge that such transfers may occur.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Aptistry shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages, including loss of data, loss of profits, or business interruption, arising out of or related to your use of the Services or this Policy.

No Guarantee of Legal Compliance Across Jurisdictions

While we make reasonable efforts to comply with applicable privacy laws, we do not represent or warrant that the Services comply with all laws in all jurisdictions. You are solely responsible for ensuring your use of the Services complies with applicable local laws.
