Privacy Policy – Applicant
Eon Applications, Inc., is a Texas corporation (“EON”), the owner and operator of the applicant tracking, talent acquisition software system called AcquireTM (the “Application”) found at AcquireTM.com (the “Website”). The Application is used by companies to post job openings, collect potential applicant information, track such applicants through the job hiring process.
The Application is accessed and used by two distinctly different types of users: companies that post job openings through Application and review candidates who apply for those job openings (“Corporate Users”); and candidates for those job openings who use the Application to apply for them (“Applicants”). The Eon Applications, Inc. Applicant Privacy Policy (the “Policy”) is intended solely for Applicants (“you”).
As a part of our mission to provide you effective Application services, AcquireTM collects, stores and discloses information you provide through the Application under specific conditions. Your Personal Information (as defined in Section 2.1) is private and confidential, and subject to this Policy, meaning that such information will not be collected, stored or disclosed unless permitted under this Policy. This Policy describes what information is collected, how it is used and secured, and when and to whom it may be disclosed. Please take a few minutes to review this Policy.
