We are a social network and online platform for professionals. People use our Services to find and be found for business opportunities and to connect with others and information. Our Privacy Policy applies to any Member or Visitor to our Services. Our registered users ("Members") share their professional identities, engage with their network, exchange knowledge and professional insights, post and view relevant content, learn and find business and career opportunities. Content and data on some of our Services is viewable to non-members ("Visitors").
This Privacy Policy applies to gotmyteam.com, gotmyteam-branded apps, communications and services ("Services").
gotmyteam will be the controller of your personal data provided to, or collected by or for, or processed in connection with our Services; you are entering into the User Agreement with gotmyteam. As a Visitor or Member of our Services, the collection, use and sharing of your personal data is subject to this Privacy Policy and updates.
gotmyteam ("we" or "us") can modify this Privacy Policy, and if we make material changes to it, we will provide notice through our Services, or by other means, to provide you the opportunity to review the changes before they become effective. If you object to any changes, you may close your account. You acknowledge that your continued use of our Services after we publish or send a notice about our changes to this Privacy Policy means that the collection, use and sharing of your personal data is subject to the updated Privacy Policy.
To create an account you need to provide data including your name, email address and/or mobile number, and a password. If you register for a premium Service, you will need to provide payment (e.g., credit card) and billing information.
You have choices about the information on your profile, such as your education, work experience, skills, photo, city or area and endorsements. You don’t have to provide additional information on your profile; however, profile information helps you to get more from our Services, including helping recruiters and opportunities find you. It’s your choice whether to include sensitive information on your profile and to make that sensitive information public. Please do not post or add personal data to your profile that you would not want to be publicly available.
We collect personal data from you when you provide, post or upload
it to our Services, such as when you fill out a form,
(e.g., with demographic data or salary), respond to a survey, or
submit a resume.
You don’t have to post or upload personal data; though if you don’t,
it may limit your ability to grow and engage with your network
over our Services.
You and others may post content that includes information about you (as part of articles, posts, comments, videos) on our Services. Unless you opt-out, we collect public information about you, such as professional-related news and accomplishments (e.g., patents granted, professional recognition, conference speakers, projects, etc.) and make it available as part of our Services.
We log your visits and use of our Services. We log usage data when you visit or otherwise use our Services, including our sites, app and platform technology, such as when you view or click on content (e.g., learning video) or ads (on or off our sites and apps), perform a search, install or update one of our mobile apps, share articles or apply for jobs. We use log-ins, cookies, device informationand internet protocol ("IP") addresses to identify you and log your use.
We collect information about you when you send, receive, or engage with messages in connection with our Services. For example, if you get a gotmyteam connection request, we track whether you have acted on it and will send you reminders.
We are improving our Services, which means we get new data and create
new ways to use data.
Our Services are dynamic, and we often introduce new features,
which may require the collection of new information. If we collect
materially different personal data or materially change how we use your
data, we will notify you and may also modify this Privacy Policy.
How we use your personal data will depend on which Services you use, how you use those Services and the choices you make in your settings. We use the data that we have about you to provide and personalize, including with the help of automated systems and inferences we make, our Services (including ads) so that they can be more relevant and useful to you and others.
Our Services help you connect with others, find and be found for
work and business opportunities, stay informed, get training and
be more productive.
We use your data to authorize access to our Services.
Our Services allow you to stay in touch and up to date with
teammates, organizations, and other professional contacts. To do so,
you will "connect" with the professionals who you choose, and who
also wish to "connect" with you. Subject to your settings, when you
connect with other Members, you will be able to search each others'
connections in order to exchange professional opportunities.
We will use data about you to help others find your profile, suggest
connections for you and others (e.g. Members who share your contacts or
job experiences) and enable you to invite others to become a Member and
connect with you. You can also opt-in to allow us to use your precise
location or proximity to others for certain tasks. It is your choice
whether to invite someone to our Services, send a connection request,
or allow another Member to become your connection. When you invite
someone to connect with you, your invitation will include your name,
photo, network and contact information. We will send invitation
reminders to the person you invited. You can choose whether or not to
share your own list of connections with your connections.
Visitors have choices about how we use their data.
Our Services allow you to explore careers and seek out, and be found for, career opportunities. Your profile can be found by teams looking to hire (for a job or a specific task) or be hired by you. We will use your data to recommend jobs. You can signal that you are interested in changing jobs and share information with job recruiters. We will use your data to recommend jobs to you and you to recruiters. We may use automated systems to profile and provide recommendations to help make our Services more relevant to our Members, Visitors and customers. Keeping your profile accurate and up-to-date may help you better connect to others and to opportunities through our Services.
We contact you and enable communications between Members.
We offer settings to control what messages you receive and how
often you receive some types of messages.
We will contact you through email, mobile phone, notices posted on
our websites or apps, messages to your gotmyteam inbox, and
other ways through our Services. We will send you messages about
the availability of our Services, security, or other service-related
issues. We also send messages about how to use the Services,
network updates, reminders, job suggestions and promotional messages
from us and our partners. Please be aware that you cannot opt-out of
receiving service messages from us, including security and legal
notices.
We also enable communications between you and others through our Services, including for example invitations, InMail, groups and messages between connections.
We use data and content about Members for invitations and communications promoting membership and network growth, engagement and our Services.
We develop our Services and conduct research.
We use data, including public feedback, to conduct research and development for the further development of our Services in order to provide you and others with a better, more intuitive and personalized experience, drive membership growth and engagement on our Services, and help connect professionals to each other and to economic opportunity.
We seek to create economic opportunity for Members of the global workforce and to help them be more productive and successful. We use the personal data available to us to research social, economic and workplace trends such as jobs availability and skills needed for these jobs and policies that help bridge the gap in various industries and geographic areas. In some cases, we work with trusted third parties to perform this research, under controls that are designed to protect your privacy. We publish or allow others to publish economic insights, presented as aggregated data rather than personal data.
Polls and surveys are conducted by us and others through our Services. You are not obligated to respond to polls or surveys, and you have choices about the information you provide. You may opt-out of survey invitations.
We use the data (which can include your communications) to investigate, respond to and resolve complaints and Service issues (e.g., bugs).
We use your data (including your communications) if we think it’s necessary for security purposes or to investigate possible fraud or other violations of our User Agreement or this Privacy Policy and/or attempts to harm our Members or Visitors.
Your profile is fully visible to all Teams of our Services. Your settings, degree of connection with the viewing Member, the subscriptions they may have, their usage of our Services, access channels and search types (e.g., by name or by keyword) impact the availability of your profile and whether they can view certain fields in your profile.
Some Members (or their employers) need, for legal or professional compliance, to archive their communications and social media activity, and will use services of others to provide these archival services. We enable archiving of messages by those Members outside of our Services.
We may need to share your data when we believe it’s required by
law or to help protect the rights and safety of you, us or others.
It is possible that we will need to disclose information about you when
required by law, subpoena, or other legal process or if we have a good
faith belief that disclosure is reasonably necessary to (1) investigate,
prevent, or take action regarding suspected or actual illegal
activities or to assist government enforcement agencies; (2)
enforce our agreements with you, (3) investigate and defend ourselves
against any third-party claims or allegations, (4) protect the security
or integrity of our Service (such as by sharing with companies facing
similar threats); or (5) exercise or protect the rights and safety of
gotmyteam, our Members, personnel, or others. We attempt to notify
Members about legal demands for their personal data when appropriate
in our judgment, unless prohibited by law or court order or when the
request is an emergency. We may dispute such demands when we believe,
in our discretion, that the requests are overbroad, vague or lack
proper authority, but we do not promise to challenge every demand.
We may share your data when our business is sold to others,
but it must continue to be used in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
We can also share your personal data as part of a sale, merger or
change in control, or in preparation for any of these events.
Any other entity which buys us or part of our business will have
the right to continue to use your data, but only in the manner set
out in this Privacy Policy unless you agree otherwise.
We keep most of your personal data for as long as your account is open.
We retain your personal data while your account is in existence
or as needed to provide you Services.
This includes data you or others provided to us and data generated or
inferred from your use of our Services. Even if you only use our
Services when looking for a new job every few years, we will retain
your information and keep your profile open until you decide to
close your account. In some cases we choose to retain certain information.
You can access or delete your personal data. You have many choices about
how your data is collected, used and shared.
We provide many choices about the collection, use and sharing of your
data, from deleting or correcting data you include in your profile.
For personal data that we have about you:
You may also contact us using the contact information below, and we will consider your request in accordance with applicable laws.
If you choose to close your gotmyteam account, your personal data
will generally stop being visible to others on our Services within
24 hours. We generally delete closed account information within 30 days
of account closure, except as noted below.
We retain your personal data even after you have closed your account
if reasonably necessary to comply with our legal obligations
(including law enforcement requests), meet regulatory requirements,
resolve disputes, maintain security, prevent fraud and abuse,
enforce our User Agreement, or fulfill your request to "unsubscribe"
from further messages from us. We will retain de-personalized
information after your account has been closed.
Information you have shared with others will remain visible after
you closed your account or deleted the information from your own
profile or mailbox, and we do not control data that other Members
copied out of our Services. Groups content and ratings or review content
associated with closed accounts will show an unknown user as the source.
Your profile may continue to be displayed in the services of others
(e.g., search engine results) until they refresh their cache.
We implement security safeguards designed to protect your data, such as HTTPS. We regularly monitor our systems for possible vulnerabilities and attacks. However, we cannot warrant the security of any information that you send us. There is no guarantee that data may not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by breach of any of our physical, technical, or managerial safeguards.
We process data both inside and outside of France and rely on legally-provided mechanisms to lawfully transfer data across borders. Countries where we process data may have laws which are different, and potentially not as protective, as the laws of your own country.
At any time, you can withdraw consent you have provided by going to
settings.
We will only collect and process personal data about you where we
have lawful bases. Lawful bases include consent (where you have given
consent), contract (where processing is necessary for the
performance of a contract with you) and "legitimate interests".
Where we rely on your consent to process personal data, you have the
right to withdraw or decline your consent at any time and where we
rely on legitimate interests, you have the right to object.
You can contact us or use other options to resolve any complaints.
If you have questions or complaints regarding this Policy, please
first contact gotmyteam online. You can also reach us by physical mail.
