Privacy Policy

 As a consumer reporting agency governed by the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) among other applicable state and federal laws, Clear Hire LLC (Clear Hire) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy covers Clear Hires websites and Clear Hires practices for handling personal information provided to Clear Hire over the Internet by the general public using Clear Hires publicly available websites. This Policy also covers personal information provided by Clear Hires background screening clients, and their job applicants and employees (as well as other individuals who have given their written authorization for Clear Hires clients to conduct a background investigation on them), using Clear Hires online background screening

solution that is accessible only through an access-restricted portion of Clear Hires websites. Clear Hire will collect, store, and use personally identifiable information only in compliance with applicable law, including the FCRA.

Information Collection

When you browse Clear Hires publicly accessible websites, you do so anonymously. Clear Hire collects personally identifiable information from you only if you choose to provide this information to us. In some instances, Clear Hire may collect non-personal (e.g., aggregate or demographic) data through cookies. This information is used to better understand and improve the usability, performance and effectiveness of the websites, as is further described below under "Cookies and Tracking Technology". The types of personal information we may collect about you through our publicly accessible websites include the following (should you decide to provide such information to Clear Hire): (a) contact and identifying information (e.g., name, address, email

address, phone and fax numbers, employer(s), job title) in connection with your expression of interest in receiving information about, or your registering for, Clear Hires products or services, newsletters and conferences; (b) your resume information and employment application information in response to Clear Hires job openings; (c) when you make a purchase through the website, we may collect your credit card number or other payment account number, billing address and other information related to such purchase (collectively,

"Payment Information") from you; (d) Other information we collect, such as city of birth and mother's maiden name, is used to verify your identity in the event you forget your login information required for our online products; and (e) any other personal information that you may voluntarily provide to us in an online form, through an e-mail or provide us through customer service correspondence and general feedback. Access to certain Clear Hires web pages and online services is not available to the general public and requires a login code and password provided by Clear Hire. Those web pages, and the information downloadable to and from those web pages, are made available only to clients of Clear Hire. On these web pages, Clear Hire collects only information that the user voluntarily shares with Clear Hire.

How We Use Your Personal Information

When your personal information is collected on Clear Hires publicly accessible websites, Clear Hire will inform you at the point of collection of the purpose for the collection. Clear Hire will use your personal information only in the way we specify when it is collected unless you consent to a different use. Clear Hire also may use the personal information you provide to answer your

questions and inquiries, to support Clear Hires own recruitment activities in response to your inquiries into Clear Hires job postings, and to provide newsletters and other information (if any) that you have requested. If you have provided your personal information over one of Clear Hires websites in connection with a background screen ordered by Clear Hires client, Clear Hire may use your personal information to perform your background screen for that client. Clear Hire will not use your information to conduct a background screening investigation and create a report unless Clear Hires client has provided a certification required by the FCRA and any other applicable law. In this certification, Clear Hires client certifies to Clear Hire that it has a legally permissible purpose for ordering the background screen, and that it has, to the extent required by applicable law, obtained your informed consent to conduct the background screen.

Information Sharing and Disclosure

Clear Hire does not sell or rent personal information to third parties. Clear Hire will not disclose your personal information to a third party without your permission, except in connection with performing your background screen for Clear Hires client or as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy. Clear Hire may disclose personal information as necessary or appropriate in connection with any of the purposes for which we use personal information as described above in "How We Use Your Personal Information". When Clear Hire conducts a background screening investigation about you, Clear Hire may disclose information that you submit through the websites to the Clear Hire client that ordered a background screening investigation on you. Clear Hire also may disclose your information to certain third parties as necessary to conduct the background investigation (such as educational institutions, prior employers, courts, law enforcement agencies and other persons or entities that may provide or verify information about you), as well as to a third-party representative or subcontractor authorized by Clear Hire to assist

in the background screening investigation. These third party representatives and subcontractors include service providers that help host or support the websites or otherwise provide technical assistance, court researchers and other data and service vendors. Clear Hire transfers to these representatives and subcontractors only the personal information they need to deliver to Clear Hire (for the benefit of Clear Hires client) the requested product or service. Clear Hire prohibits these third parties from using that information for any other purpose. Clear Hire requires that these parties maintain commercially reasonable measures to protect the confidentiality of your information. Clear Hire also may in good faith disclose personal information and any other additional information available to Clear Hire for any of the following purposes: (i) investigate, prevent or take action regarding actual or suspected illegal activities or fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, or violations of Clear Hires terms of use; (ii) respond to or defend against subpoenas, court orders, or other legal process; (iii) establish or exercise Clear Hires legal rights; or (iv) otherwise comply with applicable law. Clear Hire may acquire other businesses, and other businesses may acquire Clear Hire. If that occurs, the information Clear Hire collects may be one of the assets examined or transferred as part of the transaction. Clear Hire will not permit another business to examine the information Clear Hire has collected without a confidentiality agreement and only to the extent permitted by law. Clear Hire will not transfer the information it has collected unless the recipient agrees to provide privacy protections equal to or exceeding those established by this Privacy Policy.

Personal Information Disclosure: United States or Overseas

Personal information submitted to Clear Hire for a background screening investigation may at times be transferred outside of the United States in order to perform the background investigation. All personal information will be transmitted and stored in a secure manner in accordance with the terms of this Privacy Policy.

Security

Clear Hire is committed to protecting the personal information that Clear Hire receives about consumers. While we cannot guarantee the security of that information, we utilize a combination of online and offline security technologies, procedures and organizational measures to help safeguard consumer information against loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and destruction. We employ Secure Socket Layer (SSL) data encryption when data is transmitted over the Internet to our websites. We have installed layered firewalls and other security technologies to help prevent unauthorized access to our systems. Strong password protection protocols are used on our computers, and employees are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy policies. The servers used to store consumer information are maintained in a secure environment with appropriate security measures.
