Privacy Policy
Our commitment to confidentiality
Technisource is a privacy conscious global organization and is strongly committed to your right to privacy. This Privacy Statement defines the commitment of Technisource to protect the privacy of personal information that is collected or used in the course of conducting business. By submitting identifying data, a visitor to our Web site is agreeing to Technisource's use of such data as described in this privacy statement.
I. RESUMES
Monster's Request and Retention of Resume Information
The Career Center portion of this Web site is powered by Monster. When you submit registration information and/or your resume, your information and your resume are hosted on a segregated area of Monster's servers. If you apply for a job or elect to activate your resume at this Web site, Technisource will be able to view your information and your resume, but no one else will be able to view them ("Technisource Resume Activation"). In such case, Monster's handling of your resume will be subject to Monster's Privacy Statement, which can be found at http://about.monster.com/privacy." In the future, when you visit Monster's Web site or another Web site whose careers area is powered by Monster, you may be invited to activate your resume there as well. Only those Web sites on which you activate your resume will be able to view your information and your resume ("Third-Party Resume Activation"). Moreover, if you activate your resume on Monster's Web site, such activation will be treated as if you had originally registered with Monster and posted your resume in its searchable database for viewing and downloading by Monster's employer and agency Customers ("Monster Resume Activation"). In such case, Monster'ss handling of your registration information and your resume will be subject to Monster's Privacy Statement, which can be found at http://about.monster.com/privacy.
Technisource requests your personal information at these collection points, but Monster actually collects the data on Technisource's behalf and maintains the information on their server which will be accessed by Technisource only and no other third parties, with the exception of Third-Party Resume Activation and Monster Resume Activation. Technisource believes that managing your career is a life-long process, and even after your information has been entered into the Technisource resume database, hosted by Monster, Monster retains indefinitely all the information gathered about you in an effort to make your repeat use with Technisource more efficient, practical, and relevant. You are able to correct or update your resume submitted to Technisource at any time by going to Technisource.com/jobs and select the "Manage Your Career" section to log in.

Passive Information Collection
Technisource uses persistent "cookies" to help personalize and maximize your online experience and time online. The cookie indicates that a user has visited the Technisource site previously, tracks user content/navigation trends, provides customized user messages, and prevents users from registering more than once. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard drive by a Web page server. Cookies are not used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to your computer, and can only be read by a Web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.
You may have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline all cookies if you prefer. Alternatively, you may be able to modify your browser setting to notify you each time a cookie is tendered and permit you to accept or decline cookies on an individual basis. If you choose to decline cookies, however, that may hinder performance and negatively impact your experience on the Technisource Web site.
Technisource uses log files on JavaScriptTM to collect domain information, referral information, browser information, pages visited, content viewed, files downloaded, and time spent per page. This information is then forwarded to our outside vendor for analysis.
Technisource combines your personally identifiable information with passively collected information. For example, when a user registers for a white paper on the Outsourcing section of Technisource.com, Technisource is able to determine who the user is (based on the user registration information) and where they came from (e.g. if the user clicked on a banner advertisement) and the specific white paper downloaded.
Security
Technisource has implemented reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to secure your personal information, including firewalls, secured servers, and database security, from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration or disclosure. However, we cannot guarantee that unauthorized third parties will never be able to defeat those measures or use your personal information for improper purposes.
Children
Technisource is not intended for children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
Changes to Privacy Statement
If Technisource decides to change its Privacy Statement, we will post those changes here so that you will always know what information we gather, how we might use that information, and to whom we will disclose it. We welcome your comments concerning this Privacy Statement. If at any time you have questions or concerns about Technisource's Privacy Statement, or you believe that we have not adhered to this Statement, please contact us by e-mail at privacy@Technisource.com, or call us at 954.308.7727 and speak to one of our representatives. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly determine and remedy the problem.
