4. How we use your Personal Information

   To facilitate connecting its Companies and Talent, TMP will share certain Personal Information you provided to the Platform with prospective organizations who are registered as Companies regarding specific placement opportunities. Also, Services provided through the Platform require payment by wire transfer, check, ACH or credit card. Accordingly, TMP will collect applicable financial information from Company and Talent and will use that information to perform billing and payment operations. Certain Personal Information may be shared with third party background check providers, who may contact Talent directly to obtain information necessary to perform a background check in connection with the Services. To the extent necessary to provide you with the Services, we may provide your Personal Information to other third party contractors or business partners who work on our behalf to help us provide you with the Services, perform services in connection with internal operations, or maintain the Site or services on the Platform. TMP will only share your Personal Information with third parties necessary to perform these functions or services.

   TMP will not sell Personal Information with any other third parties or sell your e-mail address or any other contact information to any third parties for any other purpose.

We also send messages about how to use our Services, network updates, reminders, Match notifications, job suggestions and promotional messages from us and our partners. Please be aware that you cannot opt out of receiving service messages from us, including security and legal notices.

      We also enable communication between you and prospective employers. You may receive email and phone communications from prospective employers.

Each employee of TMP signs a confidentiality and nondisclosure agreement to ensure your privacy. The Site has security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under our control, and meets or exceeds all industry standards for the protection and confidentiality of personal identifiable information. TMP operates all its services, including any payment information, across the Internet using secure connections (specifically Transport Layer Security/TLS/"HTTPS"/formerly known as SSL).
