Cookies and Tracking Tools
We may use technology to automatically obtain information about you, your devices, your browsing patterns, and your website usage activity, when you visit or use the DocCafe Sites. This information helps DocCafe work correctly and supports our marketing and analytics efforts. This information includes, but is not limited to, your device type; device settings; Internet browser information; operating system information; IP address; mobile device identifiers; software version; phone model; phone operating system; mobile phone carrier information; geolocation data; the date, time and length of your stay or use of the DocCafe Sites; your interactions with DocCafe; the referring website, specific pages accessed, and other actions you take when using the DocCafe Sites; and other information as described above in the “Collection and Use of Information” section of this Privacy Policy.
We and third-party ad technology providers may collect this information over time and across different websites and online services through the use of tracking tools, including cookies, web beacons, clear GIFs, pixels, device identifiers, and other online information-gathering tools. The information collected from tracking tools may be transmitted to the third-party providers of those tools. We also use and share the information collected from tracking tools and automated technologies as set forth in the “Collection and Use of Information” section of this Privacy Policy.
DocCafe may use session or persistent cookies to collect and store data about your preferences and navigation to, from, and on the DocCafe Sites. These cookies may be ours or they may be third-party cookies from one or more of our vendors or service providers. DocCafe uses cookies when you are required to re-enter your password, to protect you against other users accessing your account, to remember your preferences, to collect aggregate information, and to improve our service provision. Session cookies are used to complete transactions and for other purposes such as counting visits to certain webpages. Session cookies are eliminated when you exit your browser. Persistent cookies may be stored on your computer by your browser. When you log in, persistent cookies tell us if you have visited the DocCafe Sites before or if you are a new visitor.
Third-party cookies are installed by third parties with the aim of collecting certain information from web users to carry out research into, for example, behavior, demographics, or spending habits. They are commonly used by advertisers who want to ensure that products and services are marketed towards the right target audience.
Most browsers automatically accept cookies. Your browser may allow you to disable this function, but disabling cookies may impact your use and enjoyment of the DocCafe Sites, and you may not be able to proceed with using the website without accepting the use of cookies. For example, if you reject all cookies, you may not be able to use the DocCafe services that require you to “sign in.” As set forth above, we, our service providers, and our business partners may use cookies and other tracking tools to collect information about individuals’ online activities over time and across third-party websites when an individual uses the DocCafe Sites.
Due to the automatic collection of data using cookies, we do not currently respond to “do not track” requests. As noted below, however, DocCafe Sites will recognize and process Global Privacy Control (GPC) opt-out signals.
Third-Party Content and Websites
DocCafe is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of Employers (including those who receive and use your information in evaluating your candidacy) or of any third-party websites. DocCafe is not able to control the targeted advertising you receive when you leave the DocCafe Sites or click on a third-party link. The DocCafe Sites provide third parties with ads and your computer or phone may retain data that you spent time with the DocCafe Sites. You may be able to adjust settings with some third-party providers to opt out of their targeted advertising.
Data Security
Security is a top priority for us. We exercise great care in providing secure transmission of your Personal Information from your Internet connection to our secure servers, as well as in handling the Information offline by limiting access to authorized personnel. DocCafe and its service providers use commercially reasonable technical and organizational measures to help secure all Personal Information against loss, misuse, and alteration. While we cannot guarantee it, we use industry-standard protections to help safeguard against such occurrences. If a breach of our systems occurs, we will notify you of the breach where required under applicable law. You understand that no data transmission over the internet or a mobile device can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, that you provide Personal Information at your own risk, and that we will not be held liable should a third party illegally obtain your Personal Information. Our policy does not extend to anything that is inherent in the operation of the Internet, and therefore beyond our control, and is not to be applied in any manner contrary to applicable law or governmental regulation.
Your California Privacy Rights
For Candidates and individuals using the DocCafe Sites on behalf of Employers who are California residents, state law provides you with the following rights with respect to your Personal Information:
- The right to know what Personal Information we have collected, used, disclosed, and sold about you, including the categories of Personal Information, the categories of sources from which the Personal Information is collected, the business or commercial purpose for collecting, selling, or sharing Personal Information, the categories of third parties to whom we disclose Personal Information, and the specific pieces of Personal Information we have collected about you.
- The right to correct inaccuracies in your Personal Information, taking into account the nature of the Personal Information and the purposes of the processing.
- The right to request that we delete any Personal Information we have about you.
- The right to opt-out of the selling or sharing of your Personal Information, which you can exercise by contacting us at privacy@doccafe.com 866) 687-7390 or by modifying your privacy preferences (e.g., Global Privacy Control), available through certain internet browsers and extensions, that signal your preference to opt out. Please note that clearing your cookies at any time will remove the signal of your selected privacy preferences.
In addition, and as set forth below, California law requires us to identify, for the 12-month period prior to the date of this Privacy Policy, what information we may have “sold” or “shared” about you. For the 12-month period prior to the date of this Privacy Policy, we have only sold or shared Personal Information about Employer contacts and Candidates as described above. We do not use or disclose Sensitive Personal Information, as defined in applicable laws, for any purposes other than those permitted by applicable law.
Opt-Out Preference Signals: If your internet browser offers the Global Privacy Control (GPC) opt-out preference signal, and if you enable the feature, we will honor your request to opt out of sale or sharing when you visit the DocCafe Sites by treating this signal as an opt-out of cookies, pixels, and other technologies that collect and share information for marketing purposes. You may also opt out of the use of third-party cookies for personalized advertising by setting your cookie preferences on your browser or submitting a request as discussed below.
This Privacy Policy describes how we may share your information for marketing purposes, as described above. If you are a California resident, the Shine the Light law permits you to request and obtain from us once per calendar year information about any of your Personal Information shared with third parties for their own direct marketing purposes, including the categories of information and the names and addresses of those businesses with which we have shared such information. To request this information and for any other questions about our privacy practices and compliance with California law, please contact us as described in the “Contact Us” section below.
Submitting a Request
To submit any of the above requests, you may call us at (866) 687-7390 or email us at privacy@doccafe.com. You may also designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf. When you exercise these rights and submit a request to us, we will verify your identity using various methods, which may include asking you to log in to your account. We also may use a third-party verification provider to verify your identity. We will endeavor to honor such requests unless such a request conflicts with certain lawful exemptions under California’s consumer privacy law. Please note that we are only required to honor requests to know twice in a 12-month period.
We do not discriminate against California residents who exercise any of their rights described in our Privacy Policy. Your exercise of these rights will have no adverse effect on the price (if applicable), accessibility, availability, and quality of our goods or services.
Data Retention
We will retain your Personal Information for as long as needed or permitted in light of the purposes for which it was obtained. The criteria used to determine our retention periods include: (a) the length of time we have an ongoing relationship with and provide services to Employers and Candidates (b) whether there is a legal obligation to which we are subject, and (c) whether retention is advisable in light of our legal position (such as in regard to applicable statutes of limitations, litigation or regulatory investigations).
Minors
DocCafe provides employment-related services to both the candidate side and employer side of the equation. DocCafe and related services are not directed toward children or minors.

A. BINDING ARBITRATION
You and DocCafe mutually agree that any and all claims arising out of or relating to Your use of the DocCafe Sites, whether asserted during or following Your use of the DocCafe Sites, will be subject to binding arbitration and not by a lawsuit or resort to court process, including but not limited to any information provided on or documents uploaded to the DocCafe Sites and any activity relating to your application for or seeking employment or engagement with any entity through the DocCafe Sites, including but not limited to any application process, submittal of pre-employment information, or submittal of personal information, whether asserted during or following Your use of the DocCafe Sites.

To the extent required by Executive Order 13665, this Agreement only requires arbitration of claims arising under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 or any tort related to or arising out of sexual assault or harassment where You voluntarily consent to arbitration after a dispute arises.
This Agreement is binding upon, and inures to the benefit of, the Parties and their respective successors and assigns.

B. Arbitration Procedures
The binding arbitration and selection of a neutral arbitrator will be conducted in conformity with the procedures of the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.) and the California Arbitration Act (Cal. Code Civ. Proc., § 1280 et seq.), and if You are located outside of California, in accordance with any other applicable arbitration law. The arbitrator shall have the authority to resolve all portions of the dispute, including disputes relating to the interpretation or enforceability of this Section VII, and may utilize procedural motions challenging the legal sufficiency of a claim or defense, such as summary judgment motions, motions for judgment on the pleadings, requests for preliminary injunctions or equitable relief, and similar proceedings. The parties shall be entitled to sufficient discovery to adequately arbitrate their claims and defenses.
The arbitrator will issue a detailed written decision and award resolving the dispute. The arbitrator’s written opinion and award shall decide all issues submitted and set forth the legal principle(s) supporting the decision. The decision or award of the arbitrator shall be final and binding upon the parties. The arbitrator shall have the power to award any type of legal or equitable relief that would be available in a court of competent jurisdiction including, but not limited to attorneys’ fees, when such relief is available under the applicable statute or law. Any arbitral award may be entered as a judgment or order in a court of competent jurisdiction. The parties agree that any relief or recovery to which they are entitled arising out of uses described in Section VII.A above shall be limited to that awarded by the arbitrator.
For claims determined to involve non-waivable statutory rights and to the extent required by law, You will not be required to pay any administrative fees or costs, including arbitrator’s fees, beyond the fees and costs which would have been incurred by You, if any, had the dispute arbitrated under this provision been litigated in state or federal court.
