You are responsible for ensuring the accuracy of the personally identifiable information you submit to us.

The types of personally identifiable information that may be collected about other people at these pages include: the recipient's name, address, e-mail address and telephone number, mobile number, fax number etc. At certain parts of some of the pages on our site, only persons who provide us with the requested personally identifiable information will be able to order products, programmes and services or otherwise participate in the particular activities and offerings. How We Use the Information We use the information we gather on the Site for the purposes of providing our services, responding to any queries you may have, operating and improving the Site, fostering a positive user experience and delivering the products and services that we offer to jobseekers and employers. Our services include the display of personalized products, content, and advertising relating to your career experience and interests, either on our Site or other sites with which we have a business relationship. The information we gather on any Widescope Site may be shared within the Widescope group of companies or any of the Widescope-affiliated companies on a worldwide basis in order to deliver these products and services we offer to employers such as searches for job seekers or in order to undertake analysis of our database such as aggregate profiling of our registered users. In this Privacy Policy, "affiliated companies" shall mean entities that control, are controlled by or are under common control with Widescope. Some Widescope companies may be located in countries that do not have legislation that guarantees adequate protection of personal information as defined by your country of residence. We may disclose personally identifiable information in response to legal processes, for example, in response to a court order or a subpoena. We may also disclose such information in response to a law enforcement agency's request, or where we believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of our Terms of Use, to verify or enforce compliance with the policies governing our site and applicable laws or as otherwise required or permitted by law or consistent with legal requirements. In addition, we may transfer personally identifiable information about you if we, or one of our business units, are acquired by, sold to, or merged with another company. Agents and contractors who have access to personally identifiable information are required to protect this information in a manner that is consistent with this Privacy Policy by, for example, not using the information for any purpose other than to carry out the services they are performing for us. We may on occasion combine information we receive online with outside records to enhance our ability to market to you those products or services that may be of interest to you. If you have signed up to receive our e-mails and prefer not to receive marketing information from this site, you may let us know this by following the ”unsubscribe” instructions provided on any marketing e‑mail you receive from this site.
