c. Facebook Pixel (Meta Pixel Tracking): We use Facebook Pixel, a web analytics tool provided by Meta Platforms, Inc., to help measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns on Facebook and Instagram. This tool collects information about your activity on our Website (such as page visits and actions taken) and may associate it with your Facebook user profile if you are logged in to Facebook.

Facebook Pixel may collect and send the following types of data:

• Your IP address
• Information about your browser and device
• Pages visited and actions taken (e.g., visiting our subscription confirmation page)

Data collected via Facebook Pixel is subject to Meta's own privacy policy and terms of service. For more information, please review Meta's Data Policy. You can opt out of Facebook ad tracking via your Facebook Ad Preferences.

4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use Google Analytics, which utilizes cookies and similar tracking technologies to collect and analyze information about your use of the Website and report on activities and trends. Cookies are small text files stored on your computer or mobile device by a website. You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, some features of our Website may not function properly. You can opt-out of having your activity on the Website made available to Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.

We also use Facebook Pixel, which places a cookie or similar tracking mechanism on your browser to help us understand how users interact with our Facebook ads and to optimize future campaigns. This may result in you seeing our ads on Facebook or Instagram after visiting our Website.

5. Third-Party Websites

The Website contains listings for jobs aggregated from various sources around the internet. These listings will link to third-party websites. These external sites are not operated by us.

We use administrative, technical, and physical security measures to help protect your personal information. Information submitted via Google Forms is subject to Google's security measures. While we rely on Google's infrastructure for the security of data submitted through forms, please be aware that despite our efforts and those of our service providers, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable, and no method of data transmission can be guaranteed against any interception or other type of misuse.

7. Data Retention

Information submitted through Google Forms will be retained indefinitely to allow us to continuously improve our services based on user feedback and to contact employers who have opted-in for notifications, unless we determine it is no longer needed for these purposes or are required by law to delete it. Aggregated and anonymized data from Google Analytics may be retained for longer periods for statistical and trend analysis purposes.
