COLLECTION OF INFORMATION
At FGL, we do not collect personal information unless we identify the purposes for such collection to you and you consent to this collection. Users of our Web Site who are interested in employment within our organization or with one of our Fitness Source franchisees, may provide us with their résumé, which document may contain personal information.
At FGL, we have created a database (the "Database") containing résumés received by e-mail for the purposes of fulfilling our present and future employee recruitment needs as well as to assist our Fitness Source franchisees in providing them possible candidates for positions in their organizations.
Once FGL receives your résumé, we will confirm to you that we have received it. Afterwards, it will go through a pre-selection process whereby your résumé will be reviewed to evaluate if the information provided (ex. experience) matches position profiles in our organization or for which our franchisees need candidates. Your résumé may then be stored in our Database for our present or future needs or those of our franchisees.
When you e-mail your résumé to us, we also collect the e-mail address you supply, so that we can respond. It is thereafter removed or deleted from our systems. We don’t use your e-mail address for any purpose other than responding to the résumé you sent, unless we have your permission.
USE AND DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
By sending FGL your résumé, FGL will use the information collected to:
1. Review your résumé to evaluate if it matches profiles of positions within our organization or that of Fitness Source franchisees;
2. Send your résumé to Fitness Source franchisees whose personnel recruitment requirements fit your employment profile for a position within the franchisees organization; Store your résumé in our Database for a maximum period of six (6) months; Use your résumé for convening interviews held by us for our purposes and/or for those of Fitness Source franchisees; and, except as provided hereafter, for no other use, unless we obtain your prior consent.
In addition, in the course of the selection process, we may use third parties to perform a variety of functions on our behalf. For example, we hire credit agencies to verify the solvency of candidates. These third parties may have access to personal information if it is necessary to perform their work for FGL. However, they are prohibited contractually from using any of this information for any other purposes and are required to maintain the confidentiality of the information.
Except as specifically provided for in this policy, FGL will not sell, transfer or disclose your personal information to other party.
