Privacy Policy Introduction

Good Jobs Chicagoland (“GJC”) is committed to maintaining your online privacy. GJC’s online Privacy Policy applies to data collected from the Good Jobs Chicagoland website.

We do not collect personal information without your permission. Any information that you volunteer, or that we send to you in response, is transferred using industry standard encryption technologies.

The following explains GJC’s privacy policy for all visitors to GJC websites.

Information Gathering and Cookies

If you visit GJC’s website to read or download information, such as events, reports or news, we only capture and store the domain name of your computer (for example, gmail.com) and other related information to speed up the performance of web page delivery. We collect no other personal information.

We may use analytic and security tools hosted by third parties or managed within GJC as part of maintaining our web presence. These tools help us measure traffic and usage trends for our website and help ensure that this service remains available to all users. We use cookies* to deliver website functionality and enhance your experience. For example, cookies allow us to maintain continuity during interactions with the website and collect statistics that help us optimize speed and performance. You may see evidence of these tools stored as cookies on your personal computer after visiting GJC’s website.

On-line Transactions

For online transactions conducted on GJC’s website, you will be asked to enter certain information about yourself and/or the organization with which you are affiliated. The specifics of this information will vary as required by the type of transaction (e.g., online job applications, event forms and online payment of donations).

In each case, any information submitted online for these activities is subject to the same safeguards as if you had engaged in these activities in person rather than over the Internet. Information collected in the course of the transaction is used in order to conduct the online transactions with GJC, to communicate with you about your transaction, or provide information that may be useful to you. Our goal is to collect only enough information as is reasonable to perform our Services and to let you know when providing personal information is optional.

Please be aware that fraudulent email scams called “phishing” have been increasing in frequency. “Phishing” involves a victim receiving an e-mail appearing to be from a legitimate business. The email may also contain what appears to be a legitimate link to that organization (e.g., gjc.org or goodjobschicagoland.net). Victims are then encouraged to enter personal information including credit card numbers and expiration dates.

GJC will not request confidential personal or financial information from our customers via an unsolicited email. GJC will also never send you an unsolicited e-mail containing a link to a GJC website where confidential personal or financial information is requested. If you receive such an email, purportedly from GJC, you are encouraged to immediately contact info@goodjobschicagoland.com. For more general information about “phishing” visit the Federal Trade Commission web site.
