PRIVACY POLICY

Welcome  

Our core mission is to help people get jobs, and help employers find great candidates. Since each of our Affiliates and Brands (as detailed in our HR Tech) shares this core mission, we developed a Privacy Center as a way of educating our users about our affiliates, and how we share data with them to provide the strongest product and service offerings to our users. You can find out more about how we share data between affiliates on our Privacy Center FAQ page. 

We’ve recently updated our Privacy Policy to maintain trust and to ensure that our Privacy Policy clearly explains how we collect and use personal and non-personal data. 

Here’s a summary of key updates: 

We have made changes to the structure and layout of our Privacy Policy to make it easier to read and understand. We have added more detail about the information we collect, how we use Personal Data and the legal bases we rely upon to use Personal Data. 

In April 2022, we added a section about the Act on Protection of Personal Information (“APPI”)  Privacy Compliance for Japan. 

We have updated our Region-Specific information section in attention to updates to the California Consumer Privacy Act in the California Privacy Rights Act (together, the “CCPA”) that go into effect on January 1, 2023.  

Please note that Headstart CorpJa and its affiliates are directly or indirectly owned by a publicly traded Japanese parent company, Recruit Holdings Co. Ltd. 

We encourage you to review the “Last Updated” legend below to determine when it was last amended. Any changes to the Privacy Policy become effective on the “Last Updated” date indicated below.  

If Headstart CorpJa is going to use Personal Data collected through the Sites in a manner materially different from that stated at the time of collection, then Headstart CorpJa will notify users via email and/or by posting a notice on the applicable Sites for 30 days prior to such use or by other means as required by law.

By creating a searchable resume through the Site or uploading a file resume on the Site, you are requesting and authorizing Headstart CorpJa to make available your resume to third parties, in accordance with our Headstart CorpJa General Terms of Service. When you create a profile on Headstart CorpJa, your resume is set to searchable by default. This means that profile data and resume data (searchable), except as otherwise indicated on the Site, may be available to third parties, such as Employers.  

Please note Employers and Employer representatives who access your resume data while it is set to searchable visibility, or to whom you apply with your not searchable resume, may choose to share your resume with additional parties. Headstart CorpJa is not responsible for such sharing. Similarly, when you share your searchable resume directly with a personalized link, we cannot control who sees your resume when you share that link.  

You may change your resume privacy settings at any time. If you do not want Headstart CorpJa to make your resume data (searchable) available to third parties without your direction or if you do not want Employers to contact you, you can set your resume to not searchable. If you would like to learn more about your resume, including the differences between searchable and not searchable private resumes and how to change your resume privacy settings please see our FAQ.

We offer users the ability to link Employer accounts together. Linked users can be assigned specific roles, which provide varying levels of access to the candidate Personal Data contained in the parent account. If you are an Employer and you invite other Headstart CorpJa users to link their accounts to yours, you agree that such linked users may have access to any and all information in your account. Types of candidate Personal Data include resume contacts, application materials and statuses, communications with applicants, any action taken by you or another user linked to the account, when you took that action, and billing information within the account. When an Employer account is delinked, either by your own action or an administrator’s action, you will lose access to all candidate Personal Data in the linked account.

In certain markets, we may also offer additional resume review services to help Job Seekers build and improve their resumes.

We provide this feedback directly to you, and may give you the ability to access it within your account. It is not made available to Employers.

We perform automated processing of Personal Data to evaluate specific aspects relating to a user and to analyze and predict a user’s preferences and interests. Where we perform this processing, we do so either on the basis of user consent or performance of a contract, whereby such processing is necessary for us to provide our services to Job Seekers and Employers. For example, such processing allows us to match Job Seekers with Employers effectively, to provide Job Seekers with Job Alerts, recommended jobs, and invitations to take action on jobs that the Job Seeker is likely to be more interested in, to send particular Job Seeker applications to an Employer, to display search results, to send application status notifications on behalf of Employers, or to perform certain spam and fraud detection activities to protect our users.

Headstart CorpJa may also make available certain Employer-related information to Job Seekers, such as information about an Employer’s activity and responsiveness on the Sites. This can include the Employer representative’s name, the Employer’s city/state location, whether the Employer has taken or has chosen not to take an action with regard to the Job Seeker’s resume or application such as opening, viewing, responding to or making a decision in regard to it, whether the Employer has engaged with other Job Seekers or viewed other Job Seekers’ resumes, and whether the Employer has taken an action in regard to a Job Listing such as pausing or closing it. We do this in order to help Job Seekers evaluate employment opportunities. As an Employer, when you use the Sites (for example by posting a Job Listing or contacting a Job Seeker through the Headstart CorpJa Resume Program) you agree that Headstart CorpJa may provide this information to Job Seekers. 

Transfers of Information to Service Providers and other third parties 

We use third parties to perform services in connection with our operations, to improve the Sites and our services, products, and features, to protect our users and better understand their needs, and to optimize our services and our users’ experiences. By using our Sites, you acknowledge Headstart CorpJa’s use of such third-parties, including, but not limited to, for the purpose of collecting, processing, analyzing, and recording your activity on, interaction with, and communications with, or through our Sites. This includes: which areas of the Site you visit (including URLs), which content you view, which information you input, whether and where you click, scroll, hover-over, mouseover, or otherwise interact with or communicate with or through the Site, the timing of each activity, and time spent on each activity. Our third parties collect this data from everyone using the Site, including users of private browsing mode, “incognito mode,” or similar modes. 

We process your activity on the Site directly or through third parties to help us better understand how you use them. This helps us improve and inform the products and services we offer. All of which allows us to help you find jobs.  

All transfers of information to service providers are covered by appropriate data agreements and, in the case of cross-border data transfers, legal mechanisms for doing so. We transfer data to service providers for the following reasons:

Headstart CorpJa will not sell or rent data collected from the Headstart CorpJa Interview Updates or Recruiter Invitations short code programs to third parties for marketing purposes. 

Transfer of information to partners 

In certain markets, Headstart CorpJa works with partners who are involved in helping Job Seekers find opportunities. These partnerships introduce Job Seekers to Headstart CorpJa and our services. These types of partnerships help Headstart CorpJa understand the needs of Job Seekers in diverse audiences and how we can improve our services for diverse audiences. In some instances, Headstart CorpJa shares limited information back to our partners about Job Seekers. For example,  confirmation that a Job Seeker has created an Headstart CorpJa account or used one of our Sites successfully (for example, by applying to a certain number of jobs or utilizing our career guides). We strive to help all Job Seekers find jobs but we are primarily a website, so these partnerships help us reach audiences that may not come to Headstart CorpJa through regular internet use. These partners may advertise their career services in partnership with Headstart CorpJa. For the avoidance of doubt, where partners are co-branded on the site, each entity is a separate controller of your Personal Data.  

Transfers of Publicly Available Information 

When users post content on the Sites in a manner that is intended to make that content searchable by individuals, Headstart CorpJa reserves the right to aggregate and share that information with third parties. For example, if an Employer posts a job on the Sites, Headstart CorpJa may share that Job Listing or information contained within that Job Listing with third parties, at Headstart CorpJa’s discretion and subject to agreement with such third parties. Headstart CorpJa also reserves the right to share information aggregated from public sources in this capacity. 

Transfers of information from service providers 

Headstart CorpJa may collect and use information about users obtained from third-party platforms such as social networking sites for the following purposes: 

To classify and quantitatively understand the number of responses and spread of marketing campaign measures such as TV commercials; 

To monitor the reputation of Headstart CorpJa’s services to understand what is appreciated and what is not, and use this information in communication plans; 

For early detection of improvements to the service, monitoring of user feedback, and planning of countermeasures; 

To provide support for users who do not know how to use Headstart CorpJa’s services; 

To find product defects (e.g., “When I try to open the application, it displays a 501 error and I can’t use it” or “I can’t apply for a job”) and escalate the issue to the development team 

Links to Third-Party Sites 

The Sites may make available links to other third-party websites. When you click on such links, you may leave our Sites. Your web browser may also disclose to the third-party website the URL of the Sites page you clicked from, and this URL may include search terms and filters you used on the Sites. The Sites may also make available Company Pages, which may contain information provided by third-party Employers. 

Headstart CorpJa is not responsible for the privacy practices of third parties. Please consult their individual privacy policies to learn more.

We perform regular vulnerability assessments of our systems and network to help protect your personal data. However, no method of transmission or method of electronic storage of information via the Internet can be 100% secure. For example, emails or other messages sent via your web browser, or resumes shared with employers may not be encrypted by the recipient. Where the security of your information is beyond our control, we cannot guarantee the privacy of such information. 

Cookies and Tracking technologies 

Learn about how these technologies are used for site management, measurement, targeting and marketing purposes.

Please see our Cookie Policy for further detailed information regarding our use of cookies including how you can control the use of these cookies via your browser settings, including, where you wish to opt-out of our use of unnecessary cookies. 

Logging from third-party websites 

If you do not already have an Headstart CorpJa account but log in to Headstart CorpJa using a third party such as Facebook or Google, this creates an Headstart CorpJa account using the same email address used in your Facebook or Google account. If you agree to provide this information to Headstart CorpJa, Facebook or Google will authenticate you and redirect you to Headstart CorpJa. Please note, when you log in to Headstart CorpJa using your Facebook or Google account, Facebook or Google will use cookies in order to authenticate you as a Facebook or Google user. 

By accessing Headstart CorpJa through your Facebook or Google account, you understand that Facebook or Google will share certain Personal Data for the purposes of authentication to permit you to access our Sites in a secure manner. If you no longer wish to share data with Headstart CorpJa from your Facebook or Google account, you will need to adjust your Facebook or Google account settings.

The shared information will remain associated with your Headstart CorpJa Profile until you modify or delete it. 

Do Not Track Requests  

We do not respond to the browser “Do Not Track” (DNT) signal if enabled by the user in their web browser. When we set or read cookies on non-affiliated sites that have integrated our job search and display features, we do so, for example, to provide a personalized job search experience to users on those sites. We do not share any information about your use of our Sites with those third parties. When third parties that we have integrated into the Sites (as described in our  Cookie Policy) set or read their own third-party cookies, they may or may not respond to the DNT signal. 

Conversion Tracking  

Headstart CorpJa may provide an Employer with code for a Conversion Tracker to place on its website that pings the Job Seeker web beacon and tracks whenever a Job Seeker has applied to a job on that Employer’s website. The Conversion Tracker is simply a counter that notifies Headstart CorpJa that a Job Seeker has applied, and also has the ability to count applications across devices if a Job Seeker is logged in to the Employer’s website. If you would like to remove yourself from Headstart CorpJa’s Job Seeker web beacon, you must use our web beacon opt-out.

Your personal data rights 

Learn about your rights to access, update, delete, object, and restrict the processing of your personal data. 

As a user of our Sites, you may have certain Personal Data rights. All users of Headstart CorpJa, regardless of location, may exercise these rights with some limitations, as set out in this Privacy Policy. These rights are provided only to human account holders, and are not available to employers or other legal entities, except as required by law. If permitted by the law, a third-party is able to make a request on your behalf.  

We verify all requests through email before actioning them and reserve the right to deny a request where we are unable to verify your identity satisfactorily. This also applies to requests submitted on your behalf by someone else.   

Although Headstart CorpJa offers these rights to all its users, subject to applicable laws, Employers may not offer the same rights. You should consult your local laws and the laws in the Employer’s location to understand what your rights are regarding your application materials and other Personal Data of which the Employer is the data controller. 

If you have any queries or complaints about how we process your Personal Data, we encourage you to contact us.

You may make a formal request to access (also referred to as the “right to know”) your Personal Data by filling out this Personal Data Request form or by sending an email to privacy-dept @ Headstart CorpJa.com (remove spaces when sending email) from the email address associated with your account. You are able to access much of your Personal Data by viewing it directly in your account.  

You have the right to request that we disclose the Personal Data we collect, use, disclose and “sell” or “share” (for the purposes of CCPA and as explained here) about you. We will provide your Personal Data to you in a portable format. This enables you to take your data from us in an electronically usable format and to transfer your data to another party in an electronically usable format.

Deletion of your Personal Data does not affect messages we process on behalf of others in connection with their use of our site, and they may continue to have access to all messages sent to or received from you. 

By making a Personal Data deletion request, you acknowledge that you will be removed from consideration for all active sweepstakes, contests, prize draws, and other promotions. 

Where Headstart CorpJa uses a third-party vendor to process Personal Data controlled by Headstart CorpJa, we will pass on your request to these vendors and make reasonable requests to inform other controllers of your Personal Data of your request.  

Please note that a deletion request only affects your Personal Data. If you submit a deletion request against your Employer account, we will only delete your Personal Data, and any non-Personal Data such as information about your company will not be deleted.  

The Right to Object to or Restrict the Processing of Your Personal Data 

You have the right to object to and to request the restriction of the processing of your Personal Data. 

Where we rely on legitimate interests as a legal basis to process your Personal Data, you can object to this processing and request that we no longer process your Personal Data in this way, unless we have compelling legitimate grounds which override your rights.  

You also have the right to object to automated processing, including decision-making and profiling, which produce a legal effect or similarly significant effects.  

If you wish to make a formal request to object to or restrict the processing of your Personal Data, please email privacy-dept @ Headstart CorpJa.com (remove spaces when sending email).

Introduction: What is a cookie? 

This Cookie Policy helps to explain the occasions when and why cookies may be sent to visitors to the Sites. Cookies are text-only pieces of information that a website transfers to an individual’s hard drive or other website-browsing equipment. Cookies allow the Sites to remember important information that will make your use of the Sites more convenient. A cookie will typically contain the name of the domain from which the cookie has come, the “lifetime” of the cookie, and a randomly generated unique number or other value. Certain cookies will be used on the Sites regardless of whether you are logged in to your account or not.  

Session cookies are temporary cookies that remain in the cookie file of your browser until you leave the Sites. Persistent Cookies remain in the cookie file of your browser for much longer (though how long will depend on the lifetime of the specific cookie). We use session cookies to track the total number of visitors to our Sites. We may also employ cookies so that we remember your computer when it is used to return to the Sites to help customize your experience. We may associate Personal Data with a cookie file in those instances. 

How We Use Cookies 

We use cookies, web beacons, and other similar technologies, including from third-party partners such as Google and Facebook, for measurement services, better targeting advertisements, marketing purposes and to improve the performance of the Sites. This takes place from the Sites, when you download or install an Headstart CorpJa App, and in some of our advertisements on third party websites. These cookies, web beacons, and other similar technologies allow us to display our promotional material to you on other sites you visit across the Internet and connect you with more Employers. We may also share information about your behavior on the Sites with third parties (including operators of third-party websites and/or social networking sites) in order to show you targeted advertisements and other content that has been customized for you.  

We also use these cookies, web beacons, and other similar technologies to facilitate the Headstart CorpJa Targeted Ads Program and other advertisements to help us to determine which advertisements users have seen, how many times users have seen a particular advertisement, and on which sites a particular advertisement appeared. We may also allow Employers who participate in our Headstart CorpJa Targeted Ads Program to place cookies, web beacons, and other similar technologies in advertisements we serve on our Site and on third party websites to help these Employers understand how individuals interact with our advertisements about their Job Listings. 

We may also use these cookies, web beacons, and other similar technologies on the Sites to understand and inform an Employer about which users saw a particular Job Listing, Company Page, Hiring Event, or other advertisement in which the Employer is identified. 

Purposes How We Use Cookies 

Analytical Purposes Headstart CorpJa and its affiliates (as defined in our Privacy Policy) use cookies to analyze user activity in order to improve the Sites and the websites of Headstart CorpJa affiliates. For example, we can use cookies to look at aggregate patterns like the average number of job searches that users perform. We can use such analysis to gain insights about how to improve the functionality and user experience of the Sites. 

Your Preferences & User Experience Headstart CorpJa and its affiliates use cookies to gather certain information about users, such as browser type, server, language preference, and country setting, in order to store user preferences on our Sites to make your user experience more consistent and convenient. For example, we may store the recent searches you have performed in a cookie so that we can allow you to easily repeat those searches when you return to our Sites, or so that we can suggest profile information when you sign up for an account and fill out a resume on the Sites (e.g. Headstart CorpJa Resume).  

 

In addition, we use cookies to maintain your logged in state when you visit our Sites repeatedly. We may also use your IP address to determine your geographic location at city or postal code level in order to provide you with the most relevant search results. 

Provide Measurement Services and Better Targeted Ads, & Marketing We use cookies, web beacons, and other similar technologies from third-party partners such as Google and Beeswax for measurement services, better targeting advertisements, and for marketing purposes. This takes place when you visit our Sites and when you download or install an Headstart CorpJa App. These cookies, web beacons, and other similar technologies allow us to display our promotional material (which may include a particular Job Listing or Company Page available on the Sites) to you on other sites you visit across the Internet.  

 

Our third-party advertising partners may also use these technologies to identify your browsing interests over time and across different websites to deliver targeted advertisements and other content that has been customized for you.  

 

Headstart CorpJa may also share information about your behavior on the Sites with third parties (including operators of third-party websites) in order to show you targeted advertisements and other content that has been customized for you. We also use cookies to facilitate the Headstart CorpJa Targeted Ads Program. In connection with this Program and other advertisements, we use cookies, web beacons and other similar technologies, including from third party partners, to determine which advertisements users have seen, how many times users have seen a particular advertisement, and on which sites a particular advertisement appeared.  

 

You have a right to object to the legitimate interest use of your Personal Data for the purposes of marketing. To opt out of the collection and use of information for ad targeting, or to exercise any other rights, please feel free to follow the steps detailed in “Your personal data rights”  of our Privacy Policy. 

Referral Tracking We use cookies, web beacons and other similar technologies, including from third party partners, to associate user activity with the third party website that referred the user to our Sites, or to associate user activity that Headstart CorpJa referred to a third party website. Some of these third party websites are partner websites that receive credit for the activity of users they refer to our Sites, or give us credit for the activity of users referred to such third party websites.  

 

However, we may use these technologies to share limited information about user activity with Employers, such as which users saw a particular Job Posting, Company Page, Hiring Event, or other advertisement on the Sites, and the third party website on which you interacted with a link to a Job Listing, Company Page, or Hiring Event, or other advertisement on the Sites. We also use cookies and these technologies to associate user activity with the email campaign that referred the user to our Sites. 

Security Purposes We use cookies and similar technologies to make your interactions with our Sites faster and more secure. We also use cookies to protect you by limiting certain types of cyber attacks. 

Testing, Usability, and Performance Improvement Purposes We use cookies to ensure users receive a consistent user experience while we conduct A/B testing on certain aspects of our Sites in order to improve our product offerings. We also use cookies to improve the performance and reliability of our Sites. 

Fraud/Spam prevention We use cookies during fraud reviews and investigations. Some of our cookie/device trackings happen via 3rd party vendors like SiftScience, other times we use our own indexes to identify activity related to specific cookies. 

Compliance We may use cookies to anonymize traffic and activity data we collect about the use of our Sites. We may also place a cookie called OptanonConsent to store your cookie consent status when you interact with our cookie banner.
