What information we know about you and how we use it

Although we may collect certain information from you as discussed below, please be assured of the following:

• We will not disclose your social security number or any other personal information you provide to us unless you authorize us to do so, except where needed to deliver a service or product ordered by you or under the limited circumstances set forth below.
• Please be advised that we may share your personal information with our parent company or affiliated divisions/companies, which may contact you regarding recruitment opportunities.
• We will always give you the opportunity to access and correct your personal information at any time.
• We will not disclose your application status without your authorization.

Personal information that you give us

There are various areas on our website where you transfer personal information to us voluntarily. We use this personal information only for the purpose specified at the time you input such information, including contacting you for employment opportunities with us or our clients. For example, to use the various features of our website, we may need to collect your name, address, social security number, telephone numbers, email addresses, licensure, certifications, education and/or employment history, dates available to travel, eligibility to work in the U.S., legal history, other occupations and any additional comments related to this data.

Information that we derive independently from your use of the site

Aside from any information you may actively disclose to us, there is other information that we might obtain from you. We may use that information for internal purposes such as to improve the content of our Web pages and/or to customize the layout of our pages for each individual user according to their preferences. In addition, we may track your account history regarding your participation on the website.

Aggregate information

Our system automatically collects information about the areas visitors frequent on our website. We may use this aggregate information to understand how our members as a group use the services we provide so that we can improve our site. Furthermore, we may share such aggregate statistical information with our partners, affiliates or other outside companies. But in doing so, it is not our practice to disclose individual names or other personal information. Some examples of how we aggregate such information include:

Cookies: A cookie is a small amount of data that is sent to your browser from a Web server and stored on your computer's hard drive. Cookies are widely used on the Internet and have become an industry standard. Cookies enable user registration and login personalization, among other things. Although a cookie cannot identify you, it can identify your computer. Your browser is most likely set up to accept cookies automatically. If you would like to disable this feature, you may do so by adjusting the options or preferences in your browser. However, by doing so, you will lose some of the conveniences of our Web pages.

IP addresses: An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you begin service with an Internet service provider. We collect IP addresses for the purposes of system administration and to audit the use of our site. Each time you log in to our site and each time you request one of our pages, our server logs your IP address. Although we log your session with us, we will not normally link your IP address to anything that can identify you. However, we can and will use IP addresses to identify a user when we feel it is necessary to enforce compliance with our rules or terms of service or to protect our service, site, users, or others.

Computer information: We query your computer automatically for information about the computer or operating system you are using such as the baud rate of your modem or error messages you may have received. We may do so in order to fit our services to your individual needs and to diagnose problems you may be having with our website. We use a unique identifier in the form of a user ID to give you access to special areas of our site intended for registered users.

Geographic location: We may gather information about your geographic location by determining where your computer is located. We do this in order to provide either localized service or to provide faster service by sending your server localized content.

Other information: We may require other information for tracking or verifying compliance with our policies, abiding by federal, state and local laws and for editorial and feedback solicitation purposes. In addition, from time to time, we may use your information for new, unanticipated uses, such as notification of new services, announcements and general communications. If our information practices materially change at some time in the future, we will post such change to the site before we use your data for these new purposes. If you are concerned about how your information is used, please periodically check this privacy policy.

How to access and change your user information

We encourage you to correct and update information related to your application by sending an e mail to us at info@travelnursing.com. Upon your request, we will provide you with any unique identifying or personal information that we maintain about you and will make any appropriate changes you provide us.

When we may be forced to disclose information

We may disclose user information in special cases when we believe in good faith that such disclosure is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be causing injury to or interference with - either intentionally or unintentionally - our rights or property or the rights or property of our users or others. We also may disclose user information when we believe in good faith that the law requires it. Finally, in the event of a merger, sale of all or substantially all of TravelNursing.com's assets, or a consolidation, we reserve the right to transfer such personal information to a third party who agrees to abide by this privacy policy and use such personal information only for the purposes it was original provided.

Opting-out

If at any time you object to our use of your personal information, including use of your email address, you may stop that use by emailing your request to info@travelnursing.com.

Links to other sites

Linking to other sites is an integral part of the functionality of the Internet and therefore of our site. Any link to a page that displays a URL of a non-TravelNursing.com site in the address window of your browser or which indicates that it is "powered by" an entity other than TravelNursing.com, is a link to a site outside of our service. This includes links to any partners that may link to TravelNursing.com or are part of a co-branding or partnership agreement, as well as other suggested links or links our users may post. These other sites may send their own cookies to you, collect data or solicit personal information. Please note that we cannot guarantee and are not responsible for the content of outside sites.

Specifically, we provide links to third party websites that offer continuing education courses on nursing and other healthcare-related topics. Enrollment for such courses is completely optional and at your discretion. You should be aware that such third parties may request and record registration information about you. We cannot guarantee your privacy on other websites and do not have control over their privacy policies or content. We urge you to review carefully the privacy policy of any third party provider prior to registering for a continuing education course to determine how your personal information will be used. Your correspondence or business dealings with any third party providers, including payment and delivery of goods or services, and any other terms, conditions, warranties or representations associated with such dealings, are solely between you and such providers.

Security

Security is a top priority for us. We exercise great care in providing secure transmission of your information from your Internet connection to our servers. We also take great care to protect user information offline. All of your data is handled only by authorized personnel and our database servers have a backup system to prevent loss of data. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100 percent secure and we will not be held liable should a third party illegally obtain your personal information. While we have made a great effort to protect your personal information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk.

Our policy does not extend to anything that is inherent in the operation of the Internet, and therefore beyond our control, and is not to be applied in any manner contrary to applicable law or governmental regulation.

Your acceptance of these terms

By using this site, you signify your assent to the TravelNursing.com privacy policy and the terms of use. If you do not agree with this policy and these terms, please refrain from using our site. Notice of any changes to our privacy policy will be posted on this site. Your continued use of the TravelNursing.com site following a reasonable notice of changes to our privacy policy or terms of use will mean you accept the changes.
