iCIMS maintains appropriate technical and organizational measures, including, but not limited to, reasonably designed administrative, physical, and technical safeguards, designed to protect Subscriber Data from accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure or access. The Subscription allows Subscribers to implement and configure their use of the platform and enforce some security requirements, including user access controls. iCIMS has a dedicated team responsible for monitoring and responding to security events, and it notifies Subscribers of security incidents and data breaches in accordance with its Incident Response Policy
We retain Subscriber Data according to the timeframes set forth in the Subscription Agreement. We retain Customer Personal Data where we have an ongoing legitimate business need to do so (for example, to provide you with a service you have requested or to comply with applicable legal, tax, or accounting requirements).
If you (as a Subscriber or User) download and use any of our mobile applications (each an “App”), iCIMS will automatically collect information on the type of device you use, operating system version, and the device identifier (“UDID”).
iCIMS may send you push notifications from time-to-time in order to update you about any events or promotions that iCIMS may be running. If you no longer wish to receive these types of communications, you may turn them off at the device level. To ensure you receive proper notifications, iCIMS will need to collect certain information about your device such as operating system and user identification information.
iCIMS does not ask for, access, or track any location-based information from your mobile device at any time while downloading or using our App.
iCIMS uses mobile analytics software to allow us to better understand the functionality of our App software on your phone. This software may record information such as how often you use the App, the events that occur within the App, aggregated usage, performance data, and where the App was downloaded from. iCIMS does not link the information iCIMS stores within the analytics software to any personal data you submit within the App.
Since each Subscriber is in control of what information, including any personal data, it collects from its Users and Candidates, how that information is used and disclosed, and how that information can be changed, Users and Candidates of the Subscription must contact the applicable Subscriber with any inquiries about how the Subscriber collects, uses, and discloses personal data, including any privacy rights or data subject access requests, including, but not limited to, how to access, rectify, correct, delete, and port personal data contained in Subscriber Data.
Where iCIMS is a data controller or business under applicable data protection or privacy law, certain jurisdictions may provide you with privacy rights regarding your personal data. In particular, you may have the right to:
These rights may be limited, for example, if fulfilling your request would reveal personal data about another individual, or if you ask us to delete personal data which we are required by law to keep or which we need to defend claims against us.
If you are a California resident, please see our Privacy Notice for California Residents for additional disclosures and information about the personal data we have collected about you over the last 12 months and rights you may have regarding your personal data.
If you do not wish to receive our email marketing communication for promotional purposes, you may opt out by clicking on the “unsubscribe” or “opt out” link in the marketing e mails we send you.
If we process your personal data in reliance upon your consent, you can contact us at any time to withdraw your consent.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us by using the contact details under the “Contact Information” heading below.
We will respond to such requests in accordance with the requirements of applicable data protection laws.

Depending upon applicable data protection and privacy law, individuals may also designate an authorized agent to exercise these rights on their behalf.
Various browsers allow a “do not track” (DNT) setting, which sends a signal to websites visited by an individual about their browser DNT setting. At this time, there is no general agreement on how companies, like iCIMS, should interpret DNT signals. Therefore, we do not currently commit to respond to DNT signals. We will continue to monitor developments around DNT browser technology and the implementation of a standard.
We may also connect to applications or integrations hosted by third parties for mutual Subscribers. These applications and integrations will interact with the Subscription and our processing of Subscriber Data will be in accordance with this Services Notice and our Subscription Agreement.
For clarity, this Services Notice does not apply to personal data collected, used, or disclosed by Subscribers as part of those third party applications, integrations, or websites. The use of any data you make available to a third-party is subject to that third-party’s privacy policy or notice and your agreements, if any, with the third-party.
iCIMS reserves the right to update or change this Services Notice from time to time. If we make material changes to this Services Notice, we will post it to the applicable sections of our Website prior to or at the time of the change becoming effective.
