Available options may include:

Cookie preference tools

Recognized privacy preference signals

Opting out of targeted advertising does not necessarily mean that you will stop seeing advertisements. Instead, advertising may be less tailored to your interests.

16. Do Not Track Signals

Certain browsers provide a “Do Not Track” (“DNT”) setting that allows users to communicate a preference regarding online tracking.

Because there is not a single universally adopted technical standard governing how websites must respond to DNT signals, our website may not respond to every DNT signal in the same way.

Where applicable law requires us to recognize a DNT signal or similar privacy mechanism, we will process the signal in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

17. Global Privacy Control and Other Privacy Signals

Certain browsers, extensions, and platforms may provide privacy preference signals, including Global Privacy Control (GPC).

Where applicable law requires recognition of a valid opt-out preference signal, Apex IT Careers will process that signal in accordance with the legal requirements applicable to the relevant processing activity.

The effect of a privacy signal may depend on:

Your location
Applicable law
The browser or device used
The type of processing involved
Whether the signal is technically recognized

A privacy signal does not necessarily control every type of data processing.

18. Personal Information and Cookies

Information collected through cookies or similar technologies may constitute personal information or personal data under applicable law.

Our Privacy Policy explains how Apex IT Careers collects, uses, discloses, retains, and protects personal information. The Privacy Policy also explains applicable privacy rights and how individuals may contact us regarding personal information.

This Cookie Policy supplements our Privacy Policy and does not replace it.

19. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect information collected through our website.

However, no electronic transmission, website, online service, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

You should also take reasonable steps to protect your own devices and accounts, including keeping software updated and using appropriate security controls.

20. Children's Privacy

Our website and services are primarily intended for adults, professionals, job seekers, employers, and individuals interested in IT career development and related services.

We do not knowingly use cookies or similar technologies to intentionally collect personal information from children in circumstances where such collection is prohibited by applicable law.
