Cookies, Pixels, Conversion Tracking

CareerCrafty, like many other websites/apps, collects information using “cookies.” You can tell your browser to reject all cookies or to notify you when one is received. However, if you refuse to allow cookies, you may be unable to utilize certain features of CareerCrafty.

They are also used to assess the performance of the website/app and how users interact with it. CareerCrafty uses them to save your login information so that you can access the website/app more quickly and easily.

Cookies are little text files that are downloaded to your device when you visit a website or use an app. Cookies are then sent back to the originating website/app or to another website/app that recognizes that cookie on each subsequent visit. Cookies are useful because they allow a website or app to recognize the device of a user. Cookies perform a variety of functions, including allowing you to browse between pages more rapidly, remembering your preferences, and optimizing the user experience. They can also assist in making online advertisements more relevant to you and your interests, the job search process, and professional development.

A Pixel Tag is an electronic image, usually a single pixel (11) that is not visible to Site users and may be associated with Cookies on their hard drives. Pixel Tags enable us to count people who have visited specific pages of the Site, deliver branded services, and assess the performance of promotional or advertising initiatives. Pixel Tags, when used in HTML-formatted email messages, can inform the sender whether and when the email has been opened.

Security

According to the Danish “Act on Processing of Personal Data,” on the protection of individuals concerning the processing of personal data and the free movement of such data, as amended and supplemented, CareerCrafty is required to manage the personal data you provide about yourself safely and only for specified purposes.

As stated previously in this Privacy Policy, CareerCrafty will always strive to protect your Personal Data; however, if you choose to share your professional documents through our sharing option (this includes sharing the link to your digital application or by sharing your documents for receiving feedback) on 3rd party software, websites/apps, or services, you do so with your consent and at your own risk, acknowledging that CareerCrafty cannot be held liable.

You are also responsible for the safety and security of your information. You are responsible for keeping the password and the material in your email inbox secure if we have provided you (or you have selected) a password or access through a unique link on your email address for access to certain portions of CareerCrafty. We ask that you not disclose your password, the unique information in your email account, or the login link to anybody. We strongly advise you to exercise caution while disclosing personal information in public parts of CareerCrafty, such as message/comment boards.

Because the information you choose to post publicly is visible to anybody with access to that particular program, website/app, or service, we are unable to protect it. All of your data is private by default. However, if you share your application documents on social media via or without our web application, or share your application online via a unique URL, or via email, or in CareerCrafty public places, or via third-party software, websites/apps, or services, we cannot guarantee the privacy of the data you have used in those documents, and CareerCrafty cannot be held liable for what happens to it after you have shared it. As a result, we recommend being cautious about where and with whom you share documents or other professional information created/shared with CareerCrafty.

We have put in place safeguards to protect your personal information against accidental loss as well as unauthorized access, use, alteration, and disclosure. All information you send to us is saved on our secure servers, which are protected by firewalls. Unfortunately, information transfer over the internet is not completely secure. Although we make every effort to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you communicate to CareerCrafty. You transmit personal information at your own risk. We are not liable for any violations of any privacy settings or security measures on CareerCrafty. However, our team is constantly working to keep your information as secure as possible.

CareerCrafty employs third-party service providers to monitor usage, and assure proper service use, functionality, maintenance, and enhancement.

This use may involve certain personal information such as IP addresses, cookies, and so on.

This processing is carried out in the company’s legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR) and is based on the aforementioned purposes. By utilizing our services, users understand and agree that CareerCrafty will not be held liable for any illegal or improper use by third-party service providers (e.g. cookie high jacking).

Users may object to such legitimate processing at any time for reasons resulting from their specific situation by contacting us at help@careercrafty.com.
