Capturing Personal Information
The following discloses the information gathering practices of Creative Hotlist and our treatment of personally identifiable information that's collected or submitted when you're on our site and using our services.
It does not apply to the practices of companies that we do not own or control, or to people that we do not employ.
Any personal information we capture will only be used to better tailor our products and services to our visitors' needs and we will not sell, trade, rent or give your personal information to other companies or organizations.
In general, we gather information about all of our users collectively, such as what areas users visit most frequently and what services are accessed most. We only use such data anonymously and in the aggregate. Except as described in this Privacy Policy, we do not disclose information about individual visits or personal information that you may provide except when we believe it is required by law or to protect Creative Hotlist, our users or others.
While we reserve the right to provide aggregate data to third parties for statistical analysis, the data will not be linked to any particular individuals. Any information we present to advertisers will not contain specific information about any individual. Although advertisers will not have access to our cookies, we will allow advertisers on our pages to set and access their cookies on your computer (the use of which are subject to their privacy policies).
We use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server, and to administer our Web site. In addition, the nature of our site requires that users give us access to their resumes and contact information and other personally identifiable information.
While using this site is completely optional, once you register and sign-in, you are not anonymous to us. We automatically receive and record information on our server logs from your browser including your IP address, cookie information and the page you requested.
In general, we will use this information for three general purposes: to customize advertising and content; to fulfill your requests for products and services; and to contact you about any site changes or Communication Arts promotions and competitions.
Creative Hotlist will not share your information with anyone unless we have asked for and received your consent to do so. However, the information you provide will also be used by the companies that use our site to find qualified job applicants and may also be used by us to contact you. In addition, we do at times employ other companies to perform functions on our behalf, including the processing of credit card payments and analyzing site data. These companies will have access to whatever personal information is necessary to perform their functions, but they may not share that information with any third party.
If you elect to open an account, Creative Hotlist may ask that you provide personal information, such as your first and last name, mailing address (including zip code), e-mail address, employer, job title, phone and fax numbers and other personal identifying information. When ordering products or services, you may also be asked to provide a credit card number.

Resumes
Since we are a creative resource site, we give people the option of putting their resumes in our database. There are two ways of doing this:
1.You can store your resume in our database, but not allow it to be searchable by potential employers or recruiters. 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.
2.If you allow your resume to be searchable, then all employers and recruiters who access our resume database will have access to your resume.
We are not responsible for the retention, use, or privacy of resumes in these instances, or for the use or privacy of resumes by any of such parties while resumes are in the database.
