When you provide contact information you agree that we may, as part of our Services to you, communicate with you or initiate communication with you on behalf of a third party, or on behalf of Emi Labs to improve the quality of our service, through various means of communication. By entering your phone number, you are representing and confirming it is your number, you have the right to accept text messages at the number, and you agree to accept such text messages on your cell phone including messages sent by an automated telephone dialing system.

Potential Employer account holders agree to comply with all their responsibilities under applicable data protection rules with respect to the collection, processing and storage of Personal Data, as well as providing adequate protection of all data subject rights provided for under all applicable data protection rules.

We will retain and use your Personal Data to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations (for example, if we are required to retain your data to comply with applicable laws), resolve disputes and enforce our legal agreements and policies.

Emi Labs will also retain Usage Data for internal analysis purposes. Usage Data is generally retained for a shorter period of time, except when this data is used to strengthen the security or to improve the functionality of our Service, or we are legally obligated to retain this data for longer periods.
