- Private cv's
When you make your cv private on our Site, you authorize us to share the contents of your cv, (excluding your identifying information name, surname, photo, contact information and current employer name) and any other Personal Data that you may include in it, publicly on the Site. We offer you this protection to stay secure.
Identifying information (name, surname, photo, contact information and current employer name) are only made available to those to whom the user has accepted a Job request or provided access to their cv. Where this occurs, you make your cv (including your identifying information name, surname, photo, contact information and current employer name), and other Personal Data that you place on your cv available to third parties. Those third parties may be interested in you as an employee, and may forward your cv to other third parties.
Your cv's may be available to anyone accessing our Sites. This includes users of our search product, businesses whose company page you may be following, and anyone with access to a URL you associated with your cv (your identifying information name, surname, photo, contact information and current employer name, will always be visible on your shared URL), such as search engines and other third parties that may crawl our Site. We offer you this visibility to help you find a job.
We may also offer you the ability to include additional information in your cv about your desired job preferences, such as your desired job schedule and salary, your willingness to relocate, licenses, certifications, skills, and other information you choose to include. We use this information to help you find a job. Our cv Search product allows businesses to find great candidates by searching cv's. By posting a cv, you authorize us to make this information available to any user who searches our Sites, to associate your desired job preferences with your cv and share this information with businesses who search for cv's on our Sites, and to allow businesses to see if you were recently active on the Sites, your readiness to work, and your available contact methods. For example, businesses using our cv search product are able to search for candidates based upon the information in your cv and any of your desired job preferences associated with it. If you do not want to share this information with businesses, you can remove it from your cv.
We may remove your name and contact information from your cv in certain instances, such as for users of our cv search product without a subscription. Businesses who have subscribed to our cv search product will be able to see your name and any other contents of your cv, except that we reserve the right to remove your contact information (such as your email and telephone number)
We expressly prohibits all scraping of our Site, although some third parties may use our Site in violation of these terms to obtain your cv information.
Please note that cv search has not launched in all markets. If you are located in a market where cv search has not yet launched it may not be searchable on our Site, but it may become searchable upon our launch of cv Search in that market.
We may also provide browser extensions and other tools to help businesses better interact with users and their cv information, including tools that allow businesses to download your cv information and enhance and transfer it to third parties engaged to process information on their behalf, such as applicant tracking systems and other recruitment management tools. Businesses are solely responsible for complying with all applicable laws that relate to their use of information obtained from us and other sources, including any obligations businesses may have to restrict how others interact with cv information downloaded from our Site.

- Changing Your CV's Privacy Settings
When you place your cv, it will be set to public by default. You may adjust this at any point by editing your privacy settings. Where you can set your cv to public, private or suspended, we do not warrant how often third-party search engines will update their caches, which may continue to contain your cv information. Additionally, businesses who have saved your cv while it was public may continue to have access to your cv even after you have adjusted it to private.
Changes made to your cv's privacy settings may take a few days to complete, during which time a cv set to public, for example, may remain visible to businesses and other users searching.
- CV Review Services
We may also offer additional cv review services to help users build and improve their cv. For example, this can include helping you understand how your cv may be parsed by applicant tracking system software, feedback on ways to build a more effective cv, or a personalized cv review video. In providing these services, we may give you feedback, including questions and comments on the contents of your cv, about your cv or other materials you submit through the services. We provide this feedback directly to you, and may give you the ability to access it within your account. It is not made available to businesses.
4.6 Matching Users With Businesses
You acknowledge that we may determine whether the words of your cv or any other individual's cv match, or match the words of certain job descriptions or cv search queries and vice versa. We may use this information and other information collected pursuant to this Privacy Policy, such as your answers to questions and recent activity on the Sites, in order to improve the Sites or any of our other products or services. This may include, for example, displaying or otherwise making available potentially relevant job descriptions and cv's to users and businesses and differentiating between cv and Job Listings that match and those that do not.
We may also provide information collected pursuant to this Privacy Policy, including Personal Data, to businesses that may be interested in contacting you. By applying to a job, answering questions, providing your contact information to show interest in a Job Listing, or by replying to a message from a business, such as by expressing your interest in a particular Job Listing, you agree to the disclosure of your information to that business. We may also provide the results of any Assessments you complete to businesses, where you agree to such provision at the time of taking such an assessment. We may also use information provided to us via your cv to pre-populate application information for you and for similar purposes.
If you have an account or a hosted cv, you agree that we may contact you or suggest you or your public or private cv to businesses that might be interested in a person who matches your activity.
In addition, if you are located in the United States and you set your cv to public or private, this means that we may share all of the aforementioned information about you with recruiters working for or on behalf of businesses. If you do not wish to share such information, you may set your cv to suspended.
4.7 Optimizing Job Campaigns
When users click on a Job Listing or apply for a job on our Sites or on a third-party website, including a business's website or a website operated by an business's applicant tracking system, we may collect certain information through this feature about users and any actions taken while on the Sites, as detailed in Section 2 of this Privacy Policy. We use this information to help us understand the effectiveness of our Sites and to ensure that Job Listings perform at the optimal level on our Sites and on other third-party websites.
4.8 Sending Messages
We provides two-way message proxy and relay services to the users of our products ("Relay Service"), including, but not limited to: business listings, Job posts, chat, onboarding, private calling, and other electronic communication services whether in the form of phone, text, video or audio. By utilizing any Relay Service, you acknowledge that you are asking us to send these messages on your behalf. This includes your cv, cover letters, applications, messages, questionnaire answers, responses, offer letters and other materials. We may provide read receipts to the sender of a message through a Relay Service indicating that the recipient has viewed the message. We may also separately inform the sender and recipient of a message through a Relay Service whether the sender or recipient recently has been active on the Site.
We process, monitor, review, store and analyze such content, which may include Personal Data, including via automated means, for data analysis, quality control, enforcement of the Sites' rules and other policies, content moderation, and to improve the Sites or any other product or service. Examples of such improvements would be improving the open rate of messages by optimizing their delivery, optimizing our search results, improving Job Listings, permitting applicants to manage their applications after transmitting them, ensuring you are provided with personally relevant product features and communications, and preventing fraud and spam. Some of this activity is performed on our behalf by service providers, as described in the section of this Privacy Policy titled 'Transfers of Information to Service Providers'. As a result of this activity, or due to technical malfunction, in certain circumstances such content may be delayed or may not be delivered to the intended recipient. We may (but is not obligated to) notify you in such an event. By using a Relay Service or otherwise providing User Content through the Site, you agree to this activity and acknowledge that this activity is necessary for maintaining the quality of the Sites and for providing the Relay Service.

We may offer you the opportunity to receive a text message from us when an business has scheduled an interview or event with you, when an business seeks to contact you based on your public cv, or has responded to your application via email relay. In such an event you will enter your phone number on the consent form. By entering your phone number you are representing and confirming it is your number and you have the right to accept text messages at the number. We will only send you a text message reminder for such interviews or messages through our email relay, and you agree to accept such text messages on your cell phone including messages sent by automated telephone dialing system. To unsubscribe at any time, reply to the text with STOP. Replying STOP in response to an SMS alert will unsubscribe you. In order to unsubscribe from other products, you must respond STOP within the specific text flows of those products.
4.10 Facilitating telephone relay system between users and businesses
Where applicable, we may offer users and businesses the option to use a telephone relay system to facilitate contact for the purpose of submitting applications, conducting interviews or other communication. Such a system uses masked or proxy telephone numbers to protect users, and is only available to users who select it on the Site. No recording of conversations or messages is performed through this relay system, although data relating to whether a call was answered and call duration may be gathered. Such functionality is provided to by third party service providers, such as Twilio.
4.11 Preventing Fraud and Spam
We may also use information collected pursuant to this Privacy Policy to help diagnose problems with the Sites and our products and services, to prevent potentially fraudulent or illegal activities, and to protect individuals from other activities that may be detrimental to you or others.

We may use a variety of methods to detect and address anomalous activity and screen content to prevent abuse such as spam or fraud. However, such detection methods are not perfect and false positives may occur. These efforts may, on occasion, result in a temporary or permanent suspension or termination of some functions for some users.
- Preventing Fraud and Spam in Messages
We also reserves the right to drop messages from our relay system that we determine do not adhere to the Sites' rules or any of the terms of our terms of service. We further reserves the right to conduct investigations to determine whether you are perpetrating a scam, spamming us or our users, or otherwise conducting fraudulent activity on the Sites by various means. We also reserves the right to turn over any information gathered via such investigations to the police or other third parties if we have a good faith belief that you are using the Sites in violation of this Privacy Policy or the applicable terms of service.

Any credit, debit, or other payment card and related billing and payment information that you provide to us may be shared by us with companies who work on our behalf, such as payment processors and/or credit agencies, solely for the purposes of checking credit, effecting payment and servicing your account.
4.13 Automated Processing of Your Personal Data
In order to optimize the performance of the Sites, we perform automated processing of Personal Data evaluating certain specific aspects relating to a user. In particular we use automated processing to analyze or predict a user's personal preferences or interests. Where it occurs, such processing is carried out if it is necessary for the performance of our agreement with our users, to allow us to provide our services to users and businesses, including analyzing applications and cv's on behalf of businesses, or in other cases on the basis of a user's consent.
For example, in certain cases such processing allows us to match users with businesses effectively, to provide users with Job Alerts, recommended jobs, and Invitations to Apply to jobs that the user is likely to be more interested in, to send particular user applications to a business, to display search results, or to perform certain spam and fraud detection activities to protect our users. Such processing is subject to the safeguards detailed in this Privacy Policy to protect the privacy of our users. You may contact legal @ saYellow.com (remove spaces) to contest any decision generated by said automated processing.
4.14 Sharing your Information with Our Affiliates
Our core mission is to help users find jobs, services and business information, and businesses find candidates, customers and promote their products, which is a mission we share with each of our affiliates.

Such sharing is also performed to facilitate improved data analysis, testing, research, and service improvement.
This sharing also allows businesses to have better insight into the performance of their listings.

For example, we and our affiliates recommend a user to a business, and a job listing to a user. This applies to users, businesses and job listings on us and any of our affiliates. We and our affiliates also share business data (such as account information and behavioral data) to provide a better experience to those businesses.

13. Your California Privacy Rights
By exercising the rights afforded in this section of our Privacy Policy, you are declaring that you are a California resident.
All users may make a verified request to us regarding their Personal Data. This process is detailed in Section 10 of our Privacy Policy, which also describes the designated address information for making requests to us regarding your Personal Data.
13.1 The Right to Know Your Personal Data
You have the right to request that we disclose the Personal Data we collect, use, disclose and "sell" (we explain this term further in Section 13.2, below) about you. For more information on how to exercise this right, please see Section 10 of our Privacy Policy.
The following sections of our Summary of our Privacy Policy explain the categories of Personal Data we collected over the past twenty four (24) months (section 3), why we collected this information (section 4), and the categories of third parties with which we shared it (section 5). We also cover these topics more expansively in our Full Privacy Policy: section 2 of our Privacy Policy explain the categories of Personal Data we collect; sections 4, 5, and 9 of our Privacy Policy explain the purposes for which we use your Personal Data; and sections 4, 8, 9 and 11 of our Privacy Policy explain our disclosure of your Personal Data to third parties.
13.2 The Right to Opt-out of the Sale of Your Personal Data
To learn more about our approach to California's "Do not sell my personal information" requirement, why it applies to your use of our Sites, and how you can exercise this right, please visit our Opt-Out page. There, we explain how California has defined "sales" under the California Consumer Protection Act (the "CCPA") and how certain transfers of Personal Data that are integral to the products and services we offer to our users may be captured by this definition.
Under California's "Shine the Light" law (Civil Code section 1798.83), California residents have certain rights regarding the disclosure of their Personal Data to third parties for their own direct marketing purposes. Our policy is not to disclose your Personal Data to third parties for the third parties' direct marketing purposes if you have exercised your option to prevent that information from being disclosed to third parties for those purposes. If you wish to not have your personal information shared for those purposes, you may request that we delete your Personal Data by following the steps outlined in Section 10 of this Privacy Policy.
13.3 The Right to Non-Discrimination for Exercising Your Privacy Rights
We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your rights under the CCPA.
