Privacy Policy





Welcome to the Career Fair App platform. A digital solution that connects dream hires to their dream jobs and internships. Our mission has been from the beginning to provide a platform and services that exceed the expectation when it comes to helping students find internships and begin their careers with employers they love and find true fulfillment in. With this platform and services we take student data privacy extremely seriously. Below is a description of our privacy guidelines that we live and operate by:



Student users decide which videos and other pieces of data are viewable by employers and the public


The video resumes that students create and use to apply for positions are private by default and every time a student wants to apply to a position they get to select which videos that particular employer will get as part of the application. “Featured videos” are described as public videos that will show up on the main feeds of all employers that are searching for students in the given field the student is studying. Students who do not wish to be actively recruited by employers should not create featured videos but should stick to just recording their video resumes and using them to apply to open positions.


The Career Fair App will never sell any student data



 Student data is used to help provide additional services to the students to help better connect them to roles that they might be interested in. This data will never be sold to third parties. You should read our full Privacy Policy to understand what data we collect, how we use it, and the limited circumstances where we may share it. Please note if that you reside in the EU or other regions outside the US, information collected through our Service will be transferred to and processed in the US or elsewhere. While Career Fair participates in the EU/US Privacy Shield program as described below, these locations may not have the same data protection laws as the country in which you initially used our Services. By using our Services, you consent to any transfer and processing in accordance with this Policy. If you have any questions, please contact us at [email protected].
