Privacy Policy
Remede is a privacy conscious global
organization and is strongly committed to your right to
privacy. This Privacy Statement defines the commitment of
Remede to protect the privacy of personal information that
is collected or used in the course of conducting business.
By submitting identifying data, a visitor to our Web site is
agreeing to Remede’s use of such data as described in this
privacy statement.
I. RESUMES
When you submit registration information
and/or your resume, your information and your resume are
hosted on our internal servers. If you apply for a job or
elect to register with Remede at this Web site, Remede will
be able to view your information and your resume, but no one
else will be able to view them (“Remede Resume Activation”).
Remede requests your personal information at these
collection points and maintains the information on their
server which will be accessed by Remede only and no other
third parties. Remede believes that managing your career is
a life-long process, and even after your information has
been entered into the Remede resume database, Remede retains
indefinitely all the information gathered about you in an
effort to make your repeat use with Remede more efficient,
practical and relevant. You are able to correct or update
your resume submitted to Remede at any time by going to
RemedeGroup.com/jobs and selecting the “Manage Your Career”
section to login.
II. POINT-OF-VIEW ARTICLES AND E-NEWSLETTERS
Remede’s Use of the Information
We use the information we gather on the Remede Web site for
the purpose of fostering a positive user experience,
delivering the services that we offer and, ultimately, to
create sales opportunities. We may use your contact
information that you provide in the online registration
forms to contact you via telephone, e-mail, direct mail or
other communications regarding profile fits, updates at the
Remede site, such as new Remede opportunities and services
which may be of interest to you, or for telemarketing
purposes. Should you decide that you would no longer like to
be contacted by Remede, please notify Remede and our best
efforts will be used to remove you from our contact list. If
you do not wish to receive future e-mails from Remede,
please reply to the Remede e-mail solicitation by including
“Unsubscribe” in the subject line. Accordingly, you should
not receive similar e-mail solicitations from Remede in the
future.
Disclosure of your Information to Others
Remede uses your information internally, with other Remede-owned
subsidiaries and affiliates, but does not disclose your
personal information to third parties, except as set forth
in the following three subparagraphs.
We may disclose such information to companies
and individuals we employ or contract to perform functions
on our behalf. Examples may include (i) the storing of your
personal information in an external, third party owned
database, and (ii) electronic mail campaigns, whereby the
third party stores your user information on their server.
These individuals/companies will have access to your
personal information as necessary to perform their
functions, but they may not share that information with any
other third party.
We may disclose such information if legally
required to do so, if requested to do so by a governmental
entity or if we believe in good faith that such action is
necessary to: (a) conform to legal requirements or comply
with legal process; (b) protect the rights or property of
Spherion or its affiliated companies; (c) prevent a crime or
protect national security; or (d) protect the personal
safety of users or the public.
We may disclose and transfer such information
to a third party who acquires all or a substantial portion
of Remede's business, whether such acquisition is by way of
merger, consolidation or purchase of all or a substantial
portion of our assets.
Passive Information Collection
Remede uses persistent “cookies” to help
personalize and maximize your online experience and time
online. The cookie indicates that a user has previously
visited the Remede site; tracks user content/navigation
trends, provides customized user messages and prevents users
from registering more than once. A cookie is a text file
that is placed on your hard drive by a Web page server.
Cookies are not used to run programs or deliver viruses to
your computer. These cookies are uniquely assigned to your
computer, and can only be read by a Web server in the domain
that issued the cookie to you.
You may have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most
Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can
usually modify your browser setting to decline all cookies
if you prefer. Alternatively, you may be able to modify your
browser setting to notify you each time a cookie is tendered
and permit you to accept or decline cookies on an individual
basis. If you choose to decline cookies, however, that may
hinder performance and negatively impact your experience on
the Remede Web site.
Remede uses log files on JavaScriptTM to
collect domain information, referral information, browser
information, pages visited, content viewed, files
downloaded, and time spent per page. This information is
then forwarded to our outside vendor for analysis.
Remede combines your personally identifiable
information with passively collected information. For
example, when a user registers for a point-of-view article
under About Remede/Articles & Newsletters on remede.com,
Remede is able to determine who the user is (based on the
user registration information) and where they came from
(e.g. if the user clicked on a banner advertisement) and the
specific article downloaded.
Security
Remede has implemented technical and
organizational measures designed to secure your personal
information, including firewalls, Intrusion Detection
Systems, secured servers and database security, from
accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use,
alteration or disclosure. We continually update our network
to protect the confidentiality of our data. Due to
constantly changing environments; however, we cannot
guarantee that unauthorized third parties will never be able
to defeat those measures or use your personal information
for improper purposes.
Children
Remede is not intended for children under 13
years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal
information from children under 13.
Changes to Privacy Statement
If Remede
decides to change its Privacy Statement, we will post those
changes here so that you will always know what information
we gather, how we might use that information, and to whom we
will disclose it. We welcome your comments concerning this
Privacy Statement. If at any time you have questions or
concerns about Remede’s Privacy Statement, or you believe
that we have not adhered to this Statement, please contact
us by e-mail at
privacy@remedegroup.com,
or call us at 516 616-6800 and speak to one of our
representatives. We will use commercially reasonable efforts
to promptly determine and remedy the problem.
