Collected data will be stored and processed in whole or in part in the United States. The information we gather on the Healthcare of Today Sites may be shared within the Healthcare of Today companies on a worldwide basis in order to deliver the products and services we offer to employers such as searches for job seekers or in order to undertake analysis of our database such as aggregate profiling of our registered users.

In some areas of Locate Space and Healthcare of Today, we request or may request that you provide personal information, including your name, address, e-mail address, telephone number, credit card number, social security number, contact information, billing information and any other information from which your identity is discernible. In other areas, we collect or may collect demographic information that is not unique to you such as your ZIP code, age, preferences, gender, interests and favorites. Sometimes we collect or may collect a combination of the two types of information. Examples of areas on the Healthcare of Today Sites where we collect personal or combined personal and demographic data are pages where you can open a Personal Profile account, create a Locate Space networking profile or account, sign up to use a service, post a resume or profile, enter a contest or purchase a product.

We also gather or may gather certain information about your use of Locate Space, such as what areas you visit and what services you access. Moreover, there is information about your computer hardware and software that is or may be collected by us. This information can include without limitation your IP address, browser type, domain names, access times and referring Web site addresses, but is not linked to your personal information.

We may sometimes afford you the opportunity to provide descriptive, cultural, behavioral, preferential and/or life style information about yourself, but it is solely up to you whether you furnish such information. If you do provide such information, you thereby consent to the use of that information in accordance with the policies and practices described in this Privacy Statement. For example, such information may be used for the purpose of determining your potential interest in receiving e-mail or other communications about other products or services.

If you choose to use our referral service to tell a friend about the Nurses of Today or refer a job posting to a friend, we will ask you for your friend's name and email address. We will automatically send your friend emails inviting him or her to visit the Healthcare of Today Sites or view the job posting. We will not store this shared information.

These companies and individuals will have access to your personal information as necessary to perform their functions; however, they may not share that information with any other third party.

We disclose information if legally required to do so, if requested to do so by a governmental entity or if we believe in good faith that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to legal requirements or comply with legal process; (b) protect our rights or property or our affiliated companies; (c) prevent a crime or protect national security; or (d) protect the personal safety of users or the public.
