Data Collection

We undertake to protect any data you submit to us to the highest levels of security and confidenciality. In the process of using our website there are areas which will require you submit personal information. One example of this is if you sign up for our Oilcareer Newsletter which gives you information on helping you locate oil industry employment. To sign up for our newsletter requires you provide your name and email address. As you can see by this example oilcareer.com undertakes to collect Your Data by means which are fair, legal, and transparent.

fair;
legal; and
transparent.

If you visit Oilcareer.com's web-site, your web-browser automatically discloses the same way it does on almost any other website you visit, and Oilcareer.com's web-server automatically logs, the following information: the date and time, the IP address from which you issued the request, the type of browser and operating system you are using, the URL of any page that referred you to the page, the URL you requested, and whether your request was successful. This data may or may not be sufficient to identify you.

Any additional data that you provide, e.g. in a web-form, may also be logged. This data may or may not be sufficient to identify you.

Any additional data that your web-browser automatically provides may also be logged. This will be the case, for example, if your browser has previously been requested to store data on your computer in 'cookies' and submits them each time you request a web-page within a particular domain (such as Oilcareer.com.com). This data may or may not be sufficient to identify you.

If you disclose personal data to Oilcareer.com in conjunction with an identifier such as your name or your credit-card details, Oilcareer.com will collect Your Data. Moreover, any data that becomes available to Oilcareer.com through any of the means described in the preceding paragraphs may be able to be associated with that identifier, and hence become Your Data.

Oilcareer.com undertakes to declare the purpose of collection in a manner which is clear and meaningful, and to avoid vague, highly inclusive statements such as 'to support our operations'.

Data Security

Oilcareer.com undertakes to store Your Data only in jurisdictions where data protections are at least equivalent to those required under the OECD Guidelines.
