When you encounter a company like BOLD LLC, especially one with a presence in places like Puerto Rico, it's natural to wonder about the services they offer and, importantly, how they handle your personal information. BOLD LLC, operating from City View Plaza II in Guaynabo, Puerto Rico, is the data controller for its family of websites and applications that link to its Privacy Policy.
At its core, BOLD LLC, along with its provider Auxiliant S.à.r.l., offers online services aimed at career enhancement. Think resume and cover letter building, salary information, career tests, and storage for your career documents. They make it clear, though, that they don't guarantee employment – a crucial distinction to keep in mind.
So, what happens when you decide to use their services? The Privacy Policy, which is a key document to review, outlines how they collect and use data. When you register for an account, use their services, download a mobile app, or make a purchase, you're voluntarily sharing information. This can include your name, email, address, phone number, and even credit card details. It's a pretty standard set of information for online service providers.
Beyond what you actively provide, they also employ tracking technologies like cookies. These are used to understand how people use their sites, helping BOLD LLC tailor the information they present to be more relevant to you. If you access their services through a mobile device, they might also collect unique device identifiers, operating system details, and mobile carrier information. And if you interact with their content through social media links or plug-ins, that interaction can also lead to information collection.
What do they do with this information? They, along with their service providers, store and retain it as detailed in their Privacy Policy. They also mention that they may share this information, within legal limits, with their subsidiaries, affiliates, and other entities, including third-party job posting websites and potential partners. This is where understanding your choices becomes really important.
And you do have choices. The policy highlights that you can control how and when you receive information from them. You can also request to have the information they've gathered about you deleted, and even get a copy of it. If you need to update your details, you can usually do so by editing your profile, changing content you've posted, or closing your account altogether.
For those residing in specific regions, there are additional considerations. BOLD LLC states its compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for European Economic Area residents, affording them their respective privacy rights. Similarly, for residents of the United States, particularly California, they comply with the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the CPRA, and other applicable state-level data privacy laws, allowing those residents to exercise their privacy rights.
If you have questions about their Privacy Policy, they provide a contact point: privacy@bold.com. It's always a good practice to read through any privacy policy before engaging with a service, especially when it involves personal and financial information. This transparency from BOLD LLC, detailing their practices and your rights, is a crucial part of building trust in the digital space.
