Our Services are not intended for use by individuals who are not of legal working age. Legal working age levels vary by country. Please see our Terms of Use for more information.

By showing interest in a job or by replying to a message from a potential Employer, you agree to the disclosure of your personal information as shown in your resume profile and application to that Employer and recognize that such party and not HireMyMom.com is responsible for its collection and processing of such information. By our terms and conditions, potential Employers agree to comply with all their responsibilities under applicable data protection rules with respect to the collection, processing, and storage of your personal data, as well as providing adequate protection of all data subject rights provided for under all applicable data protection rules.

The service provider is not permitted to use your credit card information except for the sole purpose of credit card processing on our behalf.
Although we do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information transmitted to our Website. Any transmission of personal information is at your own risk. We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on the Website.
We’ll ask for your consent before using your information for a purpose that isn’t covered in this Privacy Policy.
As provided elsewhere in the Privacy Policy, we do not share your personal information with third parties except in the following cases:
With your consent. We’ll get your permission before sharing your information with a third party Website or service. We use data we have about you (such as your expressed interests and preferences) to determine whether you might be interested in the opportunities, products, or services of a particular partner. We’ll ask for your explicit consent to share any sensitive personal information.
For external processing. We provide personal information to certain trusted businesses or persons to process it for us, based on our instructions and in compliance with our Privacy Policy and any other appropriate confidentiality and security measures. For example, we use service providers to help us with customer support, billing processes, Web hosting (including Cloud) services, data analysts, marketing assistance, and customer service.
For legal reasons. We will share personal information outside of HireMyMom.com if we have a good-faith belief that access, use, preservation, or disclosure of the information is reasonably necessary to:
- Meet applicable law, legal process, or government request

If HireMyMom.com is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, we’ll continue to ensure the confidentiality of your personal information and give affected users notice before personal information is transferred or becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
One of the critical ways we protect your privacy and security is for you to follow our Site prompts and only enter your personal information in fields in which you are explicitly instructed to do so, such as a Name, Email, Address, or Credit Card field. This allows us to correctly label the personally-identifiable information and differentiate it from non-personally identifiable information.
We may store your work profile and information.
Our retention period of data is stored until removal is explicitly requested by the user, and it’s retained for internal analytics and insights.
As a Subscriber, you may store in our database your work profile, which includes your resume, cover letters, and/or work samples. Your profile is completely hidden from the public, and only Employers who are logged in will be able to search your entire resume profile, including your personal contact information.
You may remove your resume on HireMyMom.com or delete your profile on HireMyMom.com at any time, and it will no longer be available on the HireMyMom.com services. If you desire that Employers who have had access to your profile in our database delete their copies, you will need to contact and request that they do so. Such party’s privacy policy applies to the services provided and information processed by them. We are not responsible for their use or privacy of your information.
