What About Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies?
When you interact with the Sites and Apps, we strive to make your experience easy and meaningful. We or our third party service providers use cookies, web beacons (including clear GIFs), and similar technologies to track user activity and collect Site and App data. We may combine this data with the personal information we have collected from you.
Do Not Track
Currently, our systems are unable to recognize browser do-not-track requests. You may opt-out of certain tracking, however, by manually adjusting the settings on your browser as discussed in this section. You also may opt-out of targeted advertising as discussed below.
Cookies
Cookies allow a web server to transfer data to a device for recordkeeping and other purposes. We and our third party service providers may use “cookies” on our Sites and Apps to, among other things, better serve you with tailored information and facilitate your ongoing access to and use of the Sites and Apps. There are two types of cookies: session-based and persistent cookies. In addition, we also allow vendors to use cookies on our Sites and Apps.
- Session Cookies. Session cookies exist only during an online session. They disappear from your device when you close your browser, App, or turn off your device. We use session cookies to allow our systems to uniquely identify you during a session or while you are logged in to the Sites or Apps. This allows us to process your online transactions and requests and verify your identity, after you have logged in, as you move through our Sites and Apps.
- Persistent cookies. Persistent cookies remain on your device after you have closed your browser or turned off your device. We use persistent cookies to track aggregate and statistical information about user activity and to display advertising both on our Sites, Apps, and services and on third-party sites and mobile apps.
- Third Party Cookies. We may also engage third parties to track and analyze website data and to serve advertisements. To do so, we may permit third parties to apply cookies to users of our Sites and Apps, where permitted by law, and, subject to your right to opt-out through the Network Advertising Initiative (as discussed below). We use the data collected by such third parties to help us administer and improve the quality of the Sites and to analyze site usage. Such third parties may combine the information that we provide about you with other information that they have collected. These third parties are required to use your information in accordance with this Policy.
Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but if you prefer you can edit your browser options to block them in the future. The Help portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your computer from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether. Visitors to our Sites who disable their web browsers’ ability to accept cookies will be able to browse the Sites; however, many site features, such as the shopping cart, will not function if you disable cookies.
Web Beacons, Pixel Tags and Other Technologies
We and our third party service providers use web beacons, such as clear GIFs, web bugs or pixel tags, which are tiny graphics with a unique identifier similar in function to cookies. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on your computer’s hard drive, clear GIFs are embedded invisibly on web and mobile app pages. We may use clear GIFs in connection with our Sites and Apps to, among other things, track the activities of Site visitors and App users, help us manage content, and compile statistics about Site and App usage. We and our third party service providers also use clear GIFs in HTML emails to our customers, to help us track email response rates, measure the success of our marketing campaigns, identify when our emails are viewed and track whether our emails are forwarded.
Site Analytics
We use automated devices and applications, such as Google Analytics, to evaluate usage of our Sites, and to the extent permitted, our Apps. We also may use other analytic means to evaluate our Sites and Apps. We use these tools to help us improve our Sites’ and Apps’ performance and user experiences. These entities may use cookies and other tracking technologies, such as web beacons or local storage objects (LSOs), to perform their services. To learn more about Google’s privacy practices, please review the Google Privacy Policy at https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/. You can also download the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on to prevent their data from being used by Google Analytics at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
Advertisements
We display advertisements on our Sites and Apps. Some of the advertisements are based on the collection of personal information and others are based on the collection of aggregate information. Please see the bottom of this section for opt-out information. We use third parties such as network advertisers to serve advertisements on our Sites, Apps and on third party websites or other media. Network advertisers are third parties that display advertisements based on your visits to our Sites, and other websites you have visited. This enables us and these third parties to target advertisements to you and others with similar interests for products and services in which you might be interested. Third party ad network providers, advertisers, sponsors and/or traffic measurement services may use cookies, JavaScript, web beacons (including clear GIFs), Flash LSOs and other technologies to measure the effectiveness of their ads and to personalize advertising content to you. These third party cookies and other technologies are governed by each third party’s specific privacy policy, not this one. We may provide these third-party advertisers with information about your usage of our Sites, Apps and our services, including personally identifiable information. You may opt-out of many third-party ad networks. This website provides information regarding this practice by Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI”) members, and your choices regarding having this information used by these companies, including how to “opt-out” of third-party ad networks operated by NAI members. You also may contact About Ads at http://www.aboutads.info/choices for information about opting out of targeted advertising and your choices regarding having information used by About Ads member companies, including how to “opt-out” of third-party ad networks operated by About Ads members. You may opt out of the DoubleClick cookie by visiting the Google advertising opt-out page and Ad Settings. Opting out of one or more NAI members or About Ad members (many of which will be the same) only means that those members no longer will deliver targeted content or ads to you, but it does not mean you will no longer receive any targeted content or ads on our Sites, Apps or other websites. You may continue to receive advertisements, for example, based on the particular website that you are viewing. Also, if your browsers are configured to reject cookies when you visit this opt-out page, or you subsequently erase your cookies, use a different computer or change web browsers, your opt-out may no longer be effective. Additional information is available through the above links.
Biometric Information
PrideStaff uses “biometric technology,” including but not limited to time and attendance systems and/or temperature verification systems for the purposes of employee identification and timekeeping and protecting the health and safety of others. These devices may collect, store, and use biometric information of individuals in accordance with PrideStaff’s internal policies.
PrideStaff prohibits the collection, use, storage, possession, or disclosure of biometric information, as well as obtaining biometric information through any other means, unless pre-approved, in writing, by PrideStaff’s legal and compliance department. This prohibition applies to the use of systems used by PrideStaff and its clients in regards to its employees, temporary associates, and other individuals.
In some instances, PrideStaff provides clients with PrideStaff’s own timekeeping terminals and related software services as well as temperature verification kiosks (“timekeeping and temperature verification systems”). In other instances, PrideStaff’s clients contract with vendors to provide timekeeping and temperature verification systems. These timekeeping and temperature verification systems may collect data, including template and temperature data, which may be considered “biometric information” under state laws including, but not limited to, the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act (“BIPA”) 740 ILCS 14/1, Texas Bus. & Com. § 503.001, Washington Rev. Code § 19.35, and N.Y. Lab. Law § 201-A.
Some of the temperature verification systems used by PrideStaff and/or its clients employ thermal imaging to verify that an individual’s temperature does not exceed a particular threshold. As part of the verification process, thermal information may be collected for employees and temporary staff entering a client’s premises to protect the health and safety of employees, temporary associates, and other individuals.
PrideStaff will permanently destroy biometric information it possesses within a reasonable period of time or when the purpose for obtaining or collecting such data has been fulfilled, but no later than one year from our last contact with an employee or temporary associate. Additionally, PrideStaff, its clients, and its vendors, affiliates, subcontractors, and licensors may have access to the biometric information to store the data, delete/maintain backup copies, and/or to service the systems, drives or databases on which the data is collected, used, or stored. Following the end of our last interaction with employees, and temporary associates, PrideStaff’s clients have represented that they and their vendors will permanently destroy any biometric information relating to employees and temporary associates within a reasonable period of time or when the purpose for obtaining or collecting such data has been fulfilled, but no later than the timeframe specified in BIPA (three years), WA (one year), and TX (one year), based on their last interaction. In instances where PrideStaff provides its own timekeeping terminals and temperature verification systems, it will also permanently destroy any biometric information relating to employees and/or temporary associates within a reasonable timeframe, but no later than one year after our last interaction with employees and/or temporary associates.
PrideStaff, its clients, and its vendors use reasonable standards of care within their industries for any storage, transmittal or protection from disclosure of any biometric information they may possess, in a manner that is the same as or more protective than the way they store, transmit, and protect similar information. PrideStaff and its clients use reasonable care to protect the security, confidentiality and integrity of all biometric information. PrideStaff, its clients, and vendors of PrideStaff and its clients do not sell, lease, trade, or otherwise profit from biometric information.
Security of Your Information
We want the information that you submit to us to be secure. We use commercially reasonable techniques and precautions to safeguard the information that you provide to us through our server. Notwithstanding our commitment to your information, please be aware that there is a risk that others could find a way to thwart our security systems. As a result, we cannot ensure or warrant the security or privacy of any information that you choose to submit to us.
User Generated Content
Portions of our Sites permit users to submit their own content for blogs or to respond to blog postings. PrideStaff is not responsible for the privacy of any information that you choose to submit through a public forum, such as a blog, or for the accuracy of any information contained in those postings. Any information that you disclose becomes public information. We cannot prevent such information from being used in a manner that may violate this Policy, the law, or your personal privacy.
Third-Party Links
At times, our Sites and Apps may contain links to other third-party websites. Any access to and use of such linked websites is not governed by this Policy, but, instead, is governed by the privacy policies of those third-party websites, and we are not responsible for the information practices of such third-party websites. You should review the privacy policies of those websites before using them.
Children’s Privacy
Our Sites, Apps, products and services are not intended for use by children. PrideStaff does not accept job applications from children under the age of 13, and does not knowingly collect information from children under the age of 13. If we discover that a child under the age of 13 has provided us with personal information, we will delete such information from our systems.

Your use of our Sites, Apps, products and services, as well as any dispute over privacy, is subject to this Policy and our Terms of Use, including applicable limitations on damages and the resolution of disputes.
