Please note that our Site contains links to other sites. Jungle Source is not responsible for the privacy practices, privacy statements, or content regarding these other sites. 

Information Collection

When you browse Jungle Source’s publicly accessible Site, you do so anonymously. Jungle Source collects personally identifiable information from you only if you choose to provide this information to us. In some instances, Jungle Source may collect non-personal (i.e., aggregate or demographic) data through cookies. This information is used to better understand and improve the usability, performance, and effectiveness of the Jungle Source Site, as further described below under “Cookies and Tracking Technology.”

The types of personal information we may collect about you through our publicly accessible Site include the following (should you decide to provide such information to Jungle Source): (a) contact and identifying information (e.g., name, address, e-mail address, phone and fax numbers, employer(s), job title) in connection with your expression of interest in receiving information about, or your registering for, Jungle Source solutions, products or services, newsletters, email, and conferences; (b) your resume information and employment application information in response to Jungle Source job openings; and (c) any other personal information that you may voluntarily provide to us in an online form or through an e-mail.

Access to certain Jungle Source web pages and online services by Jungle Source’s customers and their employees and job applicants is not available to the general public and requires a login code and password provided by Jungle Source. The use of those web pages, and the information downloadable to and from those pages, are governed by a written agreement between Jungle Source and its clients. On these web pages, Jungle Source collects only information that the user voluntarily shares with Jungle Source.

If you are using this Site to open an employment screening account with Jungle Source, we collect the information requested on our account application form, including contact information and financial information (such as credit card number or billing information). This information is used for internal purposes, such as account establishment, billing, fulfillment of orders, and customer service.

How We Use Your Personal Information

When your personal information is collected on Jungle Source’s publicly accessible Site, Jungle Source will inform you at the point of collection of the purpose for the collection. Jungle Source will use your personal information only in the way we specify when it is collected unless you consent to a different use. For example, Jungle Source may use personal information submitted in an account application to set up and maintain your account. Jungle Source also may use the personal information you provide to answer your questions and inquiries, to support Jungle Source’s own recruitment activities in response to your inquiries into Jungle Source’s job postings, and to provide newsletters and other information (if any) that you have requested. If you have provided your personal information through this Site in connection with background screening ordered by Jungle Source’s customer—your employer or prospective employer—Jungle Source may use your personal information to perform your background check for that customer. Jungle Source will not use your information to conduct a background screening investigation and create a report unless Jungle Source’s client completes a certification required by the FCRA and any other applicable law. In this certification, Jungle Source’s customer certifies to Jungle Source that it has a legally permissible purpose for ordering the background check or background screening services, and that it has, to the extent required by applicable law, obtained your informed consent to conduct the background screening.

Personal Information Disclosure: United States or Overseas

Jungle Source will not disclose your personal information to a third party, except in accordance with applicable laws.

Typically, Jungle Source will only disclose personal information regarding the subject of a background check to a third in the following situations:

• To an employer or prospective employer who has been authorized by the consumer to receive information about him or her.
  
  
• To a third-party representative or subcontractor authorized by Jungle Source to assist in the background screening investigation (e.g., providers that host or support this website or otherwise provide technical assistance, as well as court researchers, and other service vendors).
  
  
• As otherwise required by law.

Where Jungle Source transfers personal information to a representative or third-party subcontractor assisting with a background check, Jungle Source provides only the information required to assist with the background check. Jungle Source prohibits such third-party representatives and subcontractors from using consumer information for any purpose other than assisting Jungle Source with the background check. Jungle Source also contractually requires such third-parties and subcontractors to maintain commercially reasonable measures to protect the confidentiality of consumer information they receive.

Generally, Jungle Source does not transfer information to third-parties outside of the United States or its territories. Such transfers would only be done if necessary to complete an international background check (e.g., conducting an international criminal check or verifying educational or employment records outside of the U.S.).

Cookies and Tracking Technology

This includes date/time of access, originating IP address, browser type, operating system of client PC.  The log information does not include information directly identifying an individual, email address, or user.  The website does collect information via forms that a user chooses to submit; this may include personal information (e.g. name, address, email, etc.).

A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a user’s computer for record-keeping purposes.  We do not link the information we store in cookies to any personally identifiable information you submit while on our site.

Security

The security of your personal information is important to us.  When you enter sensitive information (such as credit card number and/or social security number) on our registration or order forms, we encrypt that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL).  [To learn more about SSL, follow this link Learn More.]

We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it.  No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure, however.  Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
