KPMG Resourcing is committed to respecting the privacy of our users. We strive to provide a safe and secure user experience. This Privacy Statement sets forth the online data collection and usage policies and practices that apply to all parts of our Web site. By using the KPMG Resourcing Web site, you consent to the policies and practices described in this Statement.
Your data will be stored and processed in whole or in part in Nigeria. If you access the KPMG Resourcing Web site outside Nigeria, your usage of that site constitutes consent to the transfer of your data, in whole or part, out of your country and to Nigeria.

Collection and Retention of Information

In some areas of our Web site, we request or may request that you provide personal and demographic information, including your name, age, gender, address, e-mail address, telephone number, contact information and any other information from which your identity is discernible
We also gather or may gather certain information about your use of our site, such as what areas you visit and what services you access. Moreover, there is information about your computer hardware and software that is or may be collected by KPMG Resourcing. This information can include without limitation your IP address, browser type, domain names, access times and referring Web site addresses.

KPMG Resourcing may sometimes afford you the opportunity to provide descriptive, career and professional information about yourself, but it is solely up to you whether you furnish such information. If you do provide such information, you are thereby consenting to the use of that information in accordance with the policies and practices described in this Statement. For example, such information may be used for the purpose of determining your potential interest in receiving email or other communications about particular products or services.

Please remember that if you post any of your personal information in public areas of KPMG Resourcing, such as in online forums or chat rooms, such information may be collected and used by others over whom KPMG has no control. We are not responsible for the use made by third parties of information you post or otherwise make available in public areas of KPMG Resourcing.

Since we believe that managing your career is a life-long process, we retain indefinitely all the information we gather about you in an effort to make your repeat use with us more efficient, practical, and relevant. Of course, you can correct or update your personal account profile and resume at any time. Moreover, you can delete your resume from our online database or close your account at any time, in which event we will remove all our copies of your resume and account profile information except for an archival copy which is not accessible on the Internet.

Use of Information by KPMG Resourcing

We use the information we gather on the KPMG Resourcing Web site, whether personal, demographic, collective or technical, for the purpose of operating and improving the Web site, fostering a positive user experience, and delivering the products and services that we offer.

We may also use the information we gather to inform you of other products or services available from KPMG or to contact you about career opportunities or potential new products and services that may be offered.

The nature and frequency of these messages will vary depending upon the information we have about you. In addition, at the time of registration in KPMG Resourcing, you have the option to elect to receive additional communications, information and promotions including without limitation free informational newsletters from KPMG Resourcing relating to topics that may be of special interest to you, such as career management advice.

Disclosure of Information to Others
We do not disclose to third parties your personal information, combined personal and demographic information or information about your use of the KPMG Resourcing Web site (such as the areas you visit or the services you access), except as set forth in the following four subparagraphs.

  1. We may disclose such information to third parties if you consent to such disclosure. For example, if you indicate that you would like to receive information about the products or services of third parties at the time you register for a KPMG Resourcing account, we may supply your contact information to third parties such as employers, recruiters, data aggregators, marketers or others for the purpose of sending you e-mail or otherwise communicating with you. We may use data we have about you (such as the interests and preferences you have expressed) to determine whether you might be interested in the products or services of a particular third-party
  2. We may disclose such information to companies and individuals we employ to perform functions on our behalf. Examples may include hosting our Web servers, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, and providing customer service. These companies and individuals will have access to your personal information as necessary to perform their functions, but they may not share that information with any other third party.
  3. We may disclose such information if legally required to do so, or if requested to do so by a governmental entity or if we believe in good faith that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to legal requirements or comply with legal process; (b) protect the rights or property of KPMG; (c) prevent a crime or protect national security; or (d) protect the personal safety of users or the public.
  4. We may disclose and transfer such information to a third party who acquires all or a substantial portion of KPMG’s business, whether such acquisition is by way of merger, consolidation or purchase of all or a substantial portion of our assets. In addition, in the event KPMG becomes the subject of a bankruptcy proceeding, whether voluntary or involuntary, KPMG or its trustee in bankruptcy may sell, license or otherwise dispose of such information in a transaction approved by the bankruptcy court.

KPMG Resourcing may also share aggregated anonymous information about visitors to its Web site with its clients, partners and other third parties so that they may understand the kinds of visitors to KPMG’s site and how those visitors use the site.

Resumés

Since KPMG Resourcing is a career site, we give you the opportunity to store your resume in our database, but not allow it to be searchable by potential employers. Not allowing your resume to be searchable means that you can use it to apply for a job online, but employers and recruiters will not have access to search it through our resume database product.

We attempt to limit access to our resume database (or copies thereof) only to paying employers, recruiters, hiring managers, headhunters, and human resource professionals. We are not responsible for the use made of resumes by third parties who access such resumes while they are in our searchable database. You may remove your resume from our searchable database at any time. However, employers, recruiters and others who have paid for access to that database or to obtain a copy of that database, as well as parties who have otherwise gained access to the database, may have retained a copy of your resume in their own files or databases. We are not responsible for the retention, use or privacy of resumes in these instances.

Updating Your Information

You may review, correct, update or change your account profile information at any time. Simply log into your account, go to your Account Profile, review your account information and, if you wish, edit it with the options provided.

Security

KPMG Resourcing has implemented reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to secure your personal information 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.
