How we protect your personal data

All Careers Without Borders products are designed with strong security features that constantly protect your information. The statistics we get from the maintenance of our services help us automatically detect and block security threats before they even reach you. If we do detect a dangerous situation that we need to bring to your attention, we will let you know and we will guide you through the steps to take to stay better protected.

We implement all necessary security measures to protect you and Carrières Sans Frontières against unauthorized access to the information we hold and against its modification, disclosure or destruction, including the following:

We perform internal audits on the collection, storage and processing of information, including physical security measures, to prevent unauthorized access to our systems.

Access to personal information is strictly reserved for employees, contractors and agents of Careers Without Borders who need to access it in order to process it. Anyone with this access is subject to strict confidentiality obligations. They are also likely to be subject to disciplinary sanctions up to and including dismissal for failure to meet these obligations.

While we take all reasonable precautions to ensure that our user data is secure and that users are protected, there always remains the risk of harm. The Internet as a whole can be insecure at times and therefore we are unable to guarantee the security of user data beyond what is reasonably practical.

Your rights as a user

As a user, you have the right to access all of your personal data that we have collected. In addition, you have the right to update or correct any personal data in our possession provided it is acceptable under the law.

You can choose to withdraw or change your consent to the collection and use of data at any time, provided it is legally acceptable to do so and you notify us within a reasonable time.
