We recognize and respect your need for privacy and security as you visit our website. When you visit our website to view any pages or read product or service information, you do so without telling us who you are and without revealing any personal information. While we do not collect identifying information about visitors to our website, we do use standard software to collect information for the strict purpose of tracking activity on our website. HR Directions is the sole owner of the information collected on this site. We will not sell, share, or rent this information to others in ways different from what is disclosed in this statement. The only information we normally collect and store from users of our website is:
The name of your Internet service provider.
- The website that referred you to us (if any).
- The date and time the pages were accessed.
- The page or pages you requested.
If you fill out one of our feedback or request forms or send us email, you will be transmitting the information that appears to you in the form or the message. This will typically include information like your name, mailing address, email address, the kind of request you are making, and any other information necessary to fulfill your request. You never transmit personally identifying information you do not enter yourself. This is always your option. This information cannot be collected unless you specifically elect to send it to us. The information we receive through our website is used internally only for the purpose of fulfilling the request or contacting you directly and is not given or sold to any other organizations.
Use of Cookies
Cookies are small bits of code, usually stored on a user's computer hard drive, which enable a website to personalize itself for each user. Cookies are not a mechanism to gain unauthorized information about you, to explain your computer, or provide a security breach. Cookies technology is not unique to HR Directions. Many sites on the Internet use cookies to provide a better experience for each user.
When cookies were first introduced they were perceived as a security hazard. Use of cookies was thought to elicit information from users of the Internet site. Cookies, however, are used to identify a user unique to that site. Cookies cannot be shared between Internet sites. Cookies are very small in size and few in number for most Internet sites.
HR Directions use of cookies poses no security risk for you. The cookies do not identify your details in the HR Directions Database and cannot be used by client organizations. Cookies have no bearing on your results.
HR Directions uses cookie technology on our website to collect information for the strict purpose of tracking activity, to better understand how many people use our website, and which pages and features are most popular.
Before entering and using the HR Directions Website, the Website too must uniquely identify each applicant. Cookies allow HR Directions to identify each user and applicant. If the HR Directions site identifies that your browser is configured not to accept cookies, you will be asked to turn on this functionality.
We hope you find our website useful and informative and are always willing to answer questions and receive suggestions. If you have either, please email the Webmaster at webmaster@hrdirections.com.

If you are accessing the HR Directions Website from outside the United States, your entry of personal data will be transferred outside your geographical area to servers located within the United States.
Your personal data will be processed fairly and lawfully, and will not be processed without your express consent. You never transmit personally identifying information you do not enter yourself. This is always your option. This information cannot be collected unless you specifically elect to send it to us. The information we receive through the HR Directions Website is only shared with the employer for which you are posting your candidacy.
The processing of your personal data is necessary to render our services to the selected employer. Processing of your information includes compiling your responses to assessments and compiling information entered into the employer's application. Personal information consisting of racial or ethnic origin, the commission or alleged commission of any offense, or similar information is asked on behalf of the employer. Beyond distribution to the employer, your personal data is processed and used for research and statistical purposes. Please note that the results of the research or any resulting statistics are not in a form that identifies you or your personal data specifically. You will be informed if another party processes your personal data, and will be informed of the personal data processed, the purpose of the processing and the name of the party processing your personal data.
You are entitled to withdraw your consent to processing of personal data or personally identifiable information at any time.

Security
Appropriate technical and organizational measures have been taken against unauthorized or unlawful processing of personal data and against accidental loss or destruction of, or damage to, personal data. HR Directions uses industry standard efforts to safeguard the confidentiality of your personal or sensitive information, such as firewalls and Secure Socket Layers. However, "perfect security" does not exist on the Internet.
HR Directions takes every precaution to protect your information. Your personal data is password protected. In addition, HR Directions utilizes redundant equipment, off-site backups, firewalls and data encryption. When you submit sensitive information via the website, your information is protected both online and off-line. While we use encryption to protect sensitive information online, we also do everything we can to protect information off-line. All user and applicant information, not just sensitive information, is restricted in our offices. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job are granted access to personally identifiable information.
If you have any questions about the security at our website, you can send email to helpdesk@hrdirections.com.
