broad categories: information and data Salary collects for its own purposes
through its Websites and other means ("Salary Collected Data") and information

Salary Collected Data to third parties, such as business partners, in
furtherance of the above uses, Salary will not sell or lease your Personal
Information. If you have any questions or concerns about any Salary Collected
Data related to you, please reach out to Salary at privacy@salary.com.

herein, including, but not limited to, providing Website functionality,

for mailings and other sales and marketing actions.

As part of your use and access to the Websites and/or Service, we may ask you to
share different types of data with us. These types of data include:

 1. Information that identifies you personally.
    
    1. Your name, your contact information, or your employment and compensation
       information ("Personal Information").

 2. You may also provide information about third parties.

       or to do business with us.

       your use or access to the Websites or Service and all such information
       along with any information Salary collects through its use of cookies,

2.1.1. COOKIES

Salary and its partners may use various tracking technologies such as cookies or
other similar technologies in connection with the Websites or Services. Salary
may also use third party service providers (who may also use cookies or other
tracking technologies) to allow Salary to analyze a visitors behavior on the
Websites and in the Service. Salary uses both per-session and persistent cookies
in conjunction with the Websites and the Service. You can access Salary's
Privacy Controls here to learn more about and mange which cookies are used on
the Websites.

Cookies are small bits of data stored locally by a browser that saves
information and helps the hosting website identify the user upon subsequent
visits. Cookies are uniquely assigned to the users' computer and may only be
read by a web server located within the domain that originally issued the
cookie. Cookies generally assist users by performing certain functions such as
saving passwords and personal preferences for a website. Persistent cookies are
stored for a set length of time determined by the web server when it passes the
cookie on to the browser and are used to store information between visits to a
site. Per-session cookies are used to store information only within a single
session and are only cached while a user is visiting the web server that issues
the per-session cookie. Per-session cookies are deleted from the cache when the
user closes the session. Most browsers allow users to specify whether they would
like to accept or decline cookies. Declining use of cookies in conjunction with
the Websites or the Service may hinder performance and negatively impact the
user experience. Use of cookies or similar technologies by Salary's advertisers
is not covered by this Privacy Policy and Salary does not have access or control
over any such cookies or similar technologies.


2.1.2. CLEAR GIFS

Salary and its partners may also employ clear gifs (a.k.a. Web Beacons/Web
Bugs), that help Salary better manage content on the Websites and in the Service
by informing Salary what content is effective. Clear gifs are tiny graphics with
a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the
online movements of Web users. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a
user's computer hard drive, clear gifs are embedded invisibly on Web pages and
are about the size of the period at the end of this sentence.


2.1.3. LOG FILES

Salary gathers certain information about a visitor's visit, access, and use of
the Websites and/or Service and stores such information in log files. This
information includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet
service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp,
and click stream data. Salary may use this information which does not identify
individual users, to analyze trends, to administer the Websites and the Service,
to track visitors' movements around the Websites and the Service and to gather
demographic information about our visitor base as a whole.


2.2. PAYMENT INFO

If you purchase a subscription to the Service or purchase any other product or
service from Salary, Salary may collect and process your payment information,
including credit card numbers and billing information, using third party service
providers which are PCI-compliant.


2.3. CHILDREN

The Websites and Service are intended for us by adults and are not intended for
or targeted at children under 13 years of age. Salary does not knowingly or
intentionally collect information or data on children under 13 years of age.

investigate fraud, or comply with a law, court order, or legal process. Salary
does not sell, rent, share, or otherwise provide Personal Information to third
parties for direct marketing purposes.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event Salary goes
through a business transition, such as a merger, acquisition, change in control,
or sale of all or a portion of its assets, Salary may disclose, sell, transfer,
or assign its rights to the Collected Information as part of such business
transition. Salary will use reasonable efforts to notify you in the event of any
such business transition, sale, transfer, or assignment of Salary's rights to
the Collected Information.


3.2. DISCLOSURE TO THIRD PARTIES; NOT FOR SALE

From time to time, Salary may disclose the Collected Information to other
non-Salary.com entities, such as our business partners. Except as described in

foregoing, Salary may disclose, remove, or alter any Third Party Information
provided by you as instructed by the individual who is the subject of such Third
Party Information. Salary may use and share the Collected Information in an
aggregated and anonymous manner as Salary sees fit.

offerings, (iii) completing transactions or purchases by you, and (iv) sending

institutions, shipping companies, or postal or government authorities, such as
customs authorities. Salary may in some situations also use the Collected
Information in an aggregated and anonymous manner to the help improve the

to a friend or colleague, Salary may ask for their name, e-mail address, and/or
other information about such friend or colleague. This information will be used
solely to send a one-time e-mail sharing the page you indicated, but will not be
used for any other purposes.

Certain online transactions may involve telephone calls, online chats, or other
communications between yourself and Salary. Please be aware that it is Salary's
general practice to monitor and, in some cases, record such communications for
staff training and quality assurance purposes or to retain evidence of a
particular transaction or interaction.

5. GENERAL


5.1. SERVICE PROVIDERS

Salary may employ other companies, individuals, or consultants to provide
services to users, customers, and prospects. You agree that Salary may share the

information, products, and/or services to you. For example, Salary may use such
service providers to host data and information, send and receive emails, analyze
data, provide marketing assistance, process credit card payments, and provide

privacy, security, and data handling practices at least as protective as
Salary's own privacy, security, and data handling practices.


5.2. SECURITY
