Other Uses of Information

We also share aggregated anonymous information about visitors to ABCD (for example, the number of visitors to ABCD's job search area) with its clients, partners and other third parties so that they can understand the kinds of visitors to the ABCD Sites and how those visitors use the ABCD Sites.

Personal and/or demographic information supplied by you in Hosted Career Sites becomes part of the ABCD database, but it is not accessible by anyone other than you, ABCD and the company concerned without your consent. If you attempt to register with ABCD after registering with a Hosted Career Site, ABCD will recognize your information and you will be able to use the information you provided to the Hosted Career Site in your account registration. Information gathered on a page in a Hosted Career Site or on a co-branded page (such as that of a contest co-sponsored by ABCD and another company), may become the property of the other company or of both us and the other company. In that instance, the use of such information by the other company will be subject to the privacy.
