What Information does LANI collect?

Registration: When you register for a free online account to receive services, such as creating your online profile, email, etc., LANI requires that you supply specific information about you, for example your name, address, email address, password, etc. We also require you give us permission to send information to you, along with your permission to post your online profile for view by the public. In some instances when you use a service, enter a contest, purchase a product, etc., more specific information may be needed such as credit card number, type of computer, etc.

Profile: Since LANI is a career site, we give you the option of adding your profile into our database. There are two ways of storing your profile:

1. Private (Not viewable by prospective employers) - Not allowing your profile to be viewed by prospective employers means you want a LANI staffing representative to work with you on your behalf to contact potential employers about you since potential employers will not have access to your profile through our database product.

2. Public (Viewable by prospective employers) - All employers and recruiters who pay for access to our database product will have access to your profile.

LANI allows you the ability to change or correct your personal information at any time. To do so, simply log into your LANI account, go to your profile, and you will find options for editing the information you have submitted.

Sweepstakes and Contests: From time to time, we may request information from you in connection with sweepstakes and contests we offer on our Web Site. Participation in these sweepstakes or contests is completely voluntary and you have a choice whether or not to disclose this information. Information requested may include contact information and demographic information. Contact information will be used to notify the winners and award prizes.

Anonymous Information: In general, we gather information about our users collectively (for example, areas users visit most frequently, the services users access the most, etc.). We only use this data anonymously and in the aggregate. This information helps us determine what is most beneficial for our users and how we can continually create a better overall experience for our users. This anonymous information may be used by us or shared with third parties, but only in the aggregate. This information does not personally identify you but may be helpful for improving the services we offer to our users. Generally, this information is collected through “traffic data” and may entail the use of “cookies,” “IP addresses,” or other numeric codes used to identify a user’s computer.

Cookies: At certain points in your visit to our Web Site, our server may send a “cookie” file to your computer. A cookie is a file your Web browser places on your computer’s hard drive. We use cookies for remembering user names and passwords and preferences, tracking click streams, load balancing, etc. You have the option of setting your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie, giving you the opportunity to decide whether to accept it. Users who do not accept cookies from our Web Site may hinder performance and may not allow you to access many areas of LANI’s group of Web Sites.

IP Addresses: We may collect other non-personal information during your visit, such as type of browser, operating system, domain name, or IP address. An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you enter the Internet. Web servers automatically identify your computer by its IP address. When you visit pages on our Web Site, our servers log your IP address for systems administration and troubleshooting purposes. We do not link IP addresses to any personally identifiable information.

Credit Card Information: If you use a credit card to pay for LANI’s services, we will store your credit card information and will continue to charge your account for the length of time you use those services until you cancel. If you give us credit card information to be used one time only to fulfill one order, we will not store your credit card information.

Children: We do not specifically collect information on children and we ask that minors not submit any personal information to us. If you are a minor, you should use this service in conjunction with a parent or guardian. If you are concerned about your child's use of this site, we encourage you to use Web filtering technology in order to supervise your child's access to the site.

How does LANI use the information it collects?

Profile: We will use this information to search for job opportunities that match your skills and qualifications and your preferences. In addition, we may contact your references and referrals and may use the referral information for purposes of paying referral fees under LANI’s referral bonus program. We may also view the information in your profile and provide feedback to you such as job classification, content, etc. as a means of assisting you and keeping your profile professional and current. 

Communication: We may use this information to inform you of additional products and services offered by LANI which could be of interest to you. We may also send other information to you such as job opportunities, announcements, industry information, upcoming events, your opinion of our Web Site, etc., in an effort to deliver to you the best possible experience and service.

Statistical Analysis: We may perform an analysis of user behavior in aggregate form in order to measure interest in areas of our Web Site (for product development purposes).

Banner Advertising: We may use the statistical information we collect in aggregate form to inform advertisers as to how many users have seen or “clicked” on their advertising banners. We may also use demographic information we collect to allow advertising banners on our Web Site to be targeted to the readers for whom they are most pertinent. This means users see advertising that is most likely to interest them, and advertisers send their messages to users who are most likely to be receptive to that information.

When does LANI share the information it collects?

Within the LANI Family: We use and share your personal information within the LANI family of companies for a variety of reasons, including: (a) to protect you by identifying you in order to prevent unauthorized persons from accessing your information; (b) to provide superior service by using the information to respond quickly and efficiently to your needs; (c) to tell you about new or enhanced services that could be of value to you; and (d) to improve and develop our products and services to meet your needs.

With Outside Companies or Parties: Except as described in this privacy and security statement, we do not disclose information about your individual visits to LANI, or personal information you provide, such as your name, address, email address, telephone number, credit card number, to any outside parties, except when we believe it is required by law or to protect LANI, our users or others. We may, however, record and share aggregated information with our partners. In addition, if you input your information on a co-branded registration page, such as that of a LANI and partner company-sponsored contest, then your information becomes the property of both LANI and the partner co-sponsoring the contest. In that instance, the use of your personal information by our partner company is subject to the privacy policy of that company and LANI is not responsible for their use of your personal information.

We often employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf. Examples may include hosting our web servers, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance and research, processing credit card payments, and providing customer service. These other companies and individuals will have access to your personal information as necessary to perform their functions, but they may not share that information with any third party.

We do not share customer information with outside companies for the purpose of marketing products or services of those companies, unless you have been given the opportunity in advance to decline this option.

Feedback: LANI has provided you with an area on the site where you can submit feedback at feedback@lani.com. Any feedback submitted through this area becomes the property of LANI. We may use this feedback for marketing purposes and to contact you for further feedback on the site.

How do I opt-out of receiving information from companies outside the LANI family of companies?

Opting-Out: We do not share information with outside companies for the purpose of selling their products and services to you without giving you the opportunity in advance to decline this option (that is, to “opt out” of this type of sharing). As permitted by law, we arrange programs with outside service providers to offer you additional benefits or other conveniences. In these cases, unless you exercise your choice to opt out of this type of sharing, we may disclose limited information with outside companies with which we have joint marketing agreements. LANI provides you with the opportunity to change your security preferences at any time. If you choose to receive these types of communications at the time of registration and later decide you no longer want to receive them, simply log into your LANI account and edit your security preferences.

Cancellations: Upon your request, LANI will remove you and your personal information from our database, thereby canceling your registration. You may remove your profile from our searchable database at any time by sending an e-mail request to PleaseRemoveMe@lani.com.

Is LANI committed to protect the security of the information it collects?

Data Security: LANI is committed to preventing others from unauthorized access to your information. To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the appropriate use of information, LANI has put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to protect the information we collect online, including SSL security for credit card submissions.

Orders Online: When placing an order online by credit card, your personal details and credit card information are scrambled using SSL encryption technology before being sent over the Internet. Although we cannot guarantee encryption or the privacy of your personal details and credit card information, SSL makes it very difficult for your information to be stolen or intercepted while being transferred. Our credit card transactions are maintained by Verisign (http://www.verisign.com). All information sent to Verisign is encrypted, which protects it against disclosure to third parties. When we receive your order, it is kept encrypted until Verisign is ready to process it. For further information about Verisign's privacy and security practices, please click here http://corporate.verisign.com/about/legalnotice.html.

Database: We use our best efforts to grant access to our database only to paying employers, recruiters, hiring managers, and human resource professionals, but we cannot guarantee other parties will not, without our consent, gain access to this database. Those who have paid for access to the database, and other parties who have otherwise gained access to our database, may have retained a copy of your profile in their own files or databases. We are not responsible for the retention, use, or privacy of profiles in these instances, or for the use or privacy of profiles by any such parties while profiles are in our database.

Third Party Links: Our site may contain links to other Internet sites. We encourage all of our partners, contributors and third parties to implement policies and practices respecting the privacy of our users. However, LANI is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such web sites. This privacy and security statement applies solely to information collected when you visit our Web Site. We encourage all our users to read the privacy and security statements of each and every web site they visit.
