Privacy Information for careerXact Registration/Members
	careerXact.com is primarily a career assessment and job application site. In order to provide our unique service to members, we are required to collect relevant psychometric and job search-related information during member registration. This information includes the results of your careerXact Online Assessment, employment history, past education, skills, certifications and contact information and it is stored in our central server database behind a hardware firewall at the careerXact.com server. The psychometric assessment involves 146 questions which compare you against jobs in the database, based on your unique personality and interests and other job-related criteria. The career reports you receive as part of the careerXact application process are yours alone and completely confidential. You will be in control of who has access to these career reports. Participating careerXact employers may access your raw assessment scoresand the interpretation of those raw assessment scores to create their own reports, but not your personal career reports, when they require more information on you in order to consider you for a job opportunity. When you apply directly to an employer from the employer's web site, employer's email or other means of employer contact, you are consenting to allow that employer the ability to generate their own hiring reports, using your raw assessment scores. Employers will use this information during the hiring process to make more accurate hiring decisions, based on how you match their target employee assessment score profile. Registrants/members agree that their information may be transferred across national boundaries and may be stored and processed in any of the countries in which careerXact and its affiliates and subsidiaries maintain offices, including, without limitation the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, France, Belgium, Germany, Japan and Australia. careerXact will comply with the various Privacy and Data Protection Acts and Laws in the countries in which it operates.

Such vendors are bound by contract not to use the registrants/members personal information for their own purposes or provide it to any third parties. Disclaimer: Despite our best efforts, we are not and will not be responsible in the event that a third party (for example, a hacker) evades our security measures and gains access to the central database, and, subsequently, your personal information.
