PART II – Critical Fit Recruiting PRIVACY POLICY FOR INFORMATION COLLECTED OTHER THAN THROUGH Critical Fit Recruiting WEBSITES

If you submit Personal Information to Critical Fit Recruiting through any channel other than [INSERT COMPANY] Websites, including through text messaging, the same privacy rules set forth at Part I above for Critical Fit Recruiting Websites will be applied to such Personal Information you submit through channels other than Critical Fit Recruiting Websites (including without limitation your opt-out rights at Part I, Section 6 above), except as follows:

The “cookies” and other tracking devices used by Critical Fit Recruiting Websites and described in Part I above do not apply to Personal Information gathered through channels other than Critical Fit Recruiting Websites.

Hardcopy Personal Information provided to Critical Fit Recruiting which is not converted to electronic media and hosted by Critical Fit Recruiting will be subject to different security procedures than will stored electronic Personal Information. Critical Fit Recruiting has security measures equal to or better than those reasonably expected in the industry, in place to protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of your hardcopy Personal Information under our control.

When Critical Fit Recruiting collects Personal Information through channels other than Critical Fit Recruiting Websites it may in some instances apply a different privacy policy to such information; but where it does so it shall conspicuously disclose to you at the time of collection what privacy policy will apply to such information. For example, Critical Fit Recruiting may collect survey information through a survey where Critical Fit Recruiting’s use of any Personal Information from that survey is more limited than the general Critical Fit Recruiting Privacy Statement would otherwise allow; in such a case Critical Fit Recruiting will disclose the stricter privacy policy governing that survey information at the time such Personal Information is collected from the survey respondent.
