Why and How We Use Your Information
To provide better services and a customized experience, we collect a range of information. This includes personal details like your name, contact information, and professional data you share. We also track how you engage with our platform, including the pages you browse, the searches you perform, and your general usage patterns. Occasionally, we enrich this data by integrating insights from third-party sources to refine our offerings and better address your needs.
Your data may be anonymized or aggregated to ensure it cannot be linked back to you. This type of data helps us in conducting research, improving marketing efforts, and streamlining operations. Such anonymized information may also be shared with external stakeholders, including advertisers, sponsors, or strategic partners.
Our Use of Aggregated Data and the Impact of Missing Information
We may gather, process, and share "Aggregated Data" which includes statistical and demographic information, to support a range of activities. While this data stems from your Personal Information, it does not qualify as Personal Information because it cannot identify you directly or indirectly. For example, analyzing aggregated Usage Information helps us understand user engagement with particular website features.
If providing Personal Information is legally required or contractually necessary, withholding such data could impact our ability to meet our obligations. For instance, we may be unable to deliver certain services without essential information.

Disclosure of Information to Third Parties for Business and Legal Purposes
Your personal information may be shared with various third parties to fulfill our operational and business requirements. These third parties may include potential employers, trusted service providers, affiliates, or other relevant organizations. Each third party is bound by their own privacy policies and is responsible for managing and safeguarding the information they receive. While we cannot control how these third parties use your data once it has been shared, we take steps to ensure they are legally obligated to follow privacy standards that align with ours.
In addition to sharing your data for business purposes, we may also disclose it if required by law or when it is necessary to protect our legal rights. For instance, we may share your information for legal investigations, to prevent fraudulent activities, or to uphold the terms of our agreements.

Links to External Websites and Third Parties
Our platform may feature links to external websites or third-party services. These websites have their own privacy policies governing how they collect and manage personal data. Although we make an effort to link only to sites that align with our privacy standards, we are not responsible for their content, security, or privacy practices. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before providing any personal data to external websites.
Safeguarding Your Data and Retention Guidelines
We take the security of your personal information seriously and have implemented a strong, multi-faceted security program to prevent unauthorized access, alteration, or loss of data.

We remain committed to continually evaluating and enhancing our security practices to stay ahead of emerging threats.
We retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill contractual obligations, deliver services, comply with legal requirements, and resolve disputes. In accordance with industry standards and regulations, we may also retain cached or archived versions of your data for a specified period to ensure the smooth operation of our services.
