Cookie Policy

Thank you for choosing to be part of our community. We are committed to protecting your personal data and respecting your privacy rights. This cookie policy (“Policy”) explains how personal data are collected through cookies and how cookies are used by Talent, Inc. and its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, “Company“, “we”, “us”, or “our”) when you access or use the resume.io site or related mobile application (the “Site”).

Cookies are small text files that are left on your browser when you visit our Site (“Cookies”). Your browser saves Cookies on your device’s hard drive. Some of these Cookies are necessary for the Site to function, others help us improve the Site and make it more user friendly. The information saved with the aid of Cookies can be sent back to our servers when you visit our Site again. There are:

First-Party Cookies: these are Cookies which we place on our Site ourselves and which are only used by us.

Third-Party Cookies: Cookies that are placed on our Site by third parties. Examples of third parties are advertising partners or security providers.

Certain Cookies may collect or be associated with personal data. Personal data is any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. You can find more information about the purposes for which we process your personal data in our Privacy Policy.

If you have any questions or concerns about our collection or use of your information or the use of Cookies, please contact us at privacy@resume.io.


A. Which cookies do we use

We select our Cookies carefully. We work with third parties to collect data through Cookies, but we are neither responsible nor liable for the processing of personal data by these third parties, and can therefore not guarantee that these third parties will handle your personal data in a reliable and secure manner. You should always read the privacy and Cookie policies of other websites or tools before using them. If you want to know more about Cookies in general, please refer to the website all about Cookies. In addition to Cookies, we also use tracking and other technologies that can be very similar. Our Site may contain small transparent image files or codes that record information about you. These are, for example, ‘scripts’, ‘web beacons’ or ‘tracking URLs’. These technologies are also referred to as Cookies.

Below we explain, among other things, which types of Cookies we use and for what purposes.

1. Essential Cookies

These Cookies are essential for our Site’s core activity and are automatically activated when you use the Site. These Cookies are for example used to remember your account details, your selected language settings and your previous searches, so that you can use our Site efficiently and effectively. These Cookies also include the enabling of essential security and accessibility features so that you can safely use our Site. We also save your permission settings in a Cookie to remember these for future visits.

We may use these essential Cookies without your consent. As these Cookies are necessary, you cannot opt out of this category. However, the Cookies will never be used for any purpose other than ensuring the functionality of our Site.

2. Analytical cookies

These Cookies help improve the performance of the Site and provide a better user experience. This enables us to offer you a high quality experience by adapting our Site and content and identifying and resolving problems quickly. For example, we use performance Cookies to monitor which pages are most popular, which method of navigation between pages is the most effective, and to ascertain why some pages receive error notifications.

We also use Google Analytics. When enabled, Google Analytics will collect visitation information and associate it with Google information from accounts of signed-in users who have consented to this association for the purpose of analytics and personalization. This Google information may include end user location, search history, YouTube history, and data from sites that partner with Google, and is used to provide aggregated and anonymized insights into your users’ cross device behaviors. We therefore see global statistics and anonymised data.

You can read more about Google Analytics here and also opt out of Google Analytics at any time here. Should anything change with regard to the rules on the use of Google Analytics, we will of course adjust our use accordingly. You can also refuse these Cookies by changing your browser settings. Please refer to the section “HOW CAN I CONTROL COOKIES?”.

3. Marketing and tracking cookies

We collaborate with third parties to display advertisements on our Site or to manage advertisements on other sites. Those third parties can use technologies such as Cookies to collect information about your activities on this Site and other sites in order to offer you advertising based on your browsing activities and interests. You can refuse these Cookies by changing your browser settings. We refer to the section “HOW CAN I CONTROL COOKIES?”.

For example, Google may not share your information with other advertisers. If required, they may share this information to comply with applicable laws, regulations, legal process or governmental requests.


B. Social media buttons

Our Site may contain buttons, widgets, tools or content that link to services from other companies (for example, Facebook ‘like’ or ‘share’ buttons). We may collect information about your use of these functions. In addition, when you see or use these buttons, tools or content, or if you view a web page that contains these, certain information from your browser can be sent to the other company automatically. Read that company’s privacy policy for more information.
