This Privacy Policy informs you of our policies regarding the collection, use and disclosure of Personal Information we receive through the Sites. “Personal Information” is information about you that is reasonably linked to an identifiable person.

Collection of Personal Information

We may collect the following information:

  • Device and Website Usage Information. As you navigate the Sites, certain passive information will also be collected, including Wireless Access Protocol addresses and navigational data.  We use analytics applications, cookies, pixels and/or similar technologies, including Google Analytics, to help collect and analyze certain information, including: the domain name of the Sites that allowed you to navigate to the Sites, search engines used, the length of time spent on the Sites, the pages you looked at on the Sites, the frequency of your visits to the Sites, and other relevant statistics.
  • Professional, Employment-Related, and Candidacy Information. If you apply for a job opening through our Sites, you may also have the opportunity to submit additional information through our Sites related to your application, such as your  Social Security Number, driver’s license or state identification number, veteran status, race or ethnic origin, gender and other personal and online identifiers; residency, citizenship, or work permit status; and information required for us to comply with laws, including at the direction of law enforcement authorities or court orders; resume or CV, cover letter, previous work and education experience,  desired position at Gyre, and any other professional information collected as part of your employment application and our hiring process.  In certain jurisdictions, some of the Personal Information we receive in connection with your job application may be considered sensitive.

  • To send administrative information to you, such as information regarding the Sites and changes to our terms, conditions, and policies.
  • To send you marketing communications that we believe may be of interest to you.
  • For our business purposes, such as data analysis, audits, enhancing and expanding our products and services, identifying usage trends, and operating and expanding our business activities.

Disclosure of Personal Information

We may disclose Personal Information:

Retention

We retain personal data for as long as required to engage in the uses described in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required by applicable law.

The criteria used to determine our retention periods include the following:

  • The length of time we have an ongoing relationship with you;
  • Whether we have a legal obligation to keep the data (for example, certain laws require us to keep records of your transactions for a certain period of time before we can delete them); or
  • Whether retention is advisable in light of our legal position (such as in regard to the enforcement of our agreements, the resolution of disputes, and applicable statutes of limitations, litigation, or regulatory investigation).
Regarding Children

Our Sites are not designed for children under the age of 13 and we request that children do not provide Personal Information through the Sites.

Links to Other Sites

Our provision of a link to any other website or location is for your convenience and does not signify our endorsement of such other website or location or its contents. We have no control over, do not review, and cannot be responsible for, these third-party websites or their content. Please be aware that the terms of our Privacy Policy do not apply to these third-party websites. Such third-party websites may have their own privacy policies, which you should read carefully.

Security

We strive to use reasonable means to protect Personal Information that we maintain within our organization.  We also seek to use third-party service providers capable of protecting the information they maintain or process for us.  Unfortunately, however, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure (for example, if you feel that the security of any account you might have with us has been compromised), please immediately notify us of the problem by contacting us in accordance with the “Contact Us” section below.

Updating Your Information

If you would like to update Personal Information that you have provided to us, you may contact us in accordance with the “Contact Us” section below.

You may designate an authorized representative to submit your verified consumer request by providing written permission and verifying your identity, or through proof of power of attorney.

California’s Shine the Light Law

California Civil Code Section 1798.83, also known as “Shine The Light” law, permits California residents to annually request information regarding the disclosure of your Personal Information (if any) to third-parties for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes in the preceding calendar year. We do not share Personal Information with third-parties for the third-parties’ direct marketing purposes.

Do Not Track
