Teachnow provides a Resume Database/Search functionality that allows registered employers and authorised recruiters to search for candidates.

By creating a profile and making information available through the Resume Database, a job seeker acknowledges and understands that their professional information may be accessed by authorised employers/recruiters for legitimate recruitment-related purposes.

Teachnow does not control how an employer subsequently uses information obtained through the Platform.

Teachnow does not permit employers to use candidate information for unlawful purposes, harassment, fraud, discrimination, unsolicited commercial activity or purposes unrelated to legitimate recruitment. Users are required to comply with Teachnow’s applicable Terms of Use and other platform rules.

If you believe an employer is misusing your information, you may report the matter to Teachnow at support@teachnow.in.

Such communication may occur through:

·       Telephone;

·       Email;

·       WhatsApp;

·       Other communication channels voluntarily made available by the candidate;

·       Communication functionality provided by Teachnow.

Teachnow is not responsible for communications or interactions occurring directly between employers and candidates after the parties have been connected, except to the extent required by applicable law.

17. We Do Not Sell or Rent Personal Information

TutorKhoj does not sell or rent users’ personal information as a commercial data product.

Teachnow’s business model involves connecting job seekers and employers.

Accordingly, information may be made available to authorised employers or recruiters when:

·       A candidate applies for a job;

·       A candidate’s profile is available through the Resume Database;

·       An employer accesses permitted Resume Database functionality;

·       A candidate otherwise chooses to make information available through the Platform.

Such sharing is part of the core functionality of Teachnow and should not be interpreted as TutorKhoj selling or renting the candidate’s personal information.

18. Third-Party Disclosure

·       Service providers processing information on behalf of TutorKhoj;

TutorKhoj will seek to limit disclosure to information reasonably necessary for the relevant purpose, subject to applicable law.

19. International Processing and Storage

Teachnow currently serves users in India. However, certain technology and cloud infrastructure used by Teachnow may be located outside India.

Teachnow currently uses Amazon Web Services (AWS) infrastructure, including infrastructure located in the United States.

Accordingly, personal information submitted through Teachnow may be processed, stored or accessed outside India.

By using Teachnow, users acknowledge that their information may be processed in jurisdictions outside India, subject to applicable law and appropriate contractual, technical and organisational safeguards.

TutorKhoj will comply with applicable Indian requirements governing cross-border processing and international transfers of personal information.

20. Data Security

TutorKhoj takes reasonable technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, destruction, loss, misuse or other unlawful processing.

Depending on the nature and sensitivity of the information and the applicable technology, security measures may include:

·       HTTPS/TLS encryption;

·       Secure authentication mechanisms;

·       Password protection;

·       Access controls;

·       Role-based permissions;

·       Firewalls;

·       Cloud security controls;

·       Logging and monitoring;

·       Backup and recovery procedures;

·       Security updates;

·       Protection against automated abuse;

·       Malware and vulnerability protection;

·       Administrative controls;

·       Incident-response procedures.

However, no electronic transmission, internet service, database or security system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Accordingly, while TutorKhoj takes reasonable measures to protect information, it cannot guarantee absolute security.

Users are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of their passwords and account credentials and should immediately notify Teachnow if they suspect unauthorised access to their account.

21. Data Breach and Security Incidents

If TutorKhoj becomes aware of a personal data breach or security incident requiring notification under applicable law, TutorKhoj will take reasonable steps to investigate, contain, mitigate and remediate the incident and make notifications to affected users, regulators or authorities where required by applicable law.

Users should report suspected security incidents to:

support@teachnow.in

22. Data Retention

TutorKhoj retains personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or as otherwise permitted or required by applicable law.

Retention periods may depend on:

·       The nature of the information;

·       The purpose for which it was collected;

·       Whether the user maintains an active account;

·       Legal and regulatory requirements;

·       Tax and accounting requirements;

·       Fraud prevention;

·       Security requirements;

·       Dispute resolution;

·       Enforcement of agreements;

·       Establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

TutorKhoj may retain certain information after account deactivation where reasonably necessary for legitimate purposes or where retention is required or permitted by law.

23. Account Deactivation and Deletion

Users may deactivate/close their Teachnow account using the functionality made available by Teachnow or by contacting support.

When an account is deactivated:

·       The user’s profile will no longer be available to employers through normal Resume Database functionality;

·       The user will not be able to log in while the account remains deactivated;

·       The user’s profile and resume will no longer be presented as an active candidate profile;

·       Certain information may remain in TutorKhoj systems for legitimate business, security, legal, accounting, tax, fraud-prevention or dispute-resolution purposes.

Deactivation should therefore not be interpreted as requiring immediate physical deletion of every copy of information from every system, backup or legally required record.

Where applicable law provides a right to erasure, TutorKhoj will process such requests in accordance with the applicable legal requirements.

24. Access and Correction of Personal Information

Registered users can generally view and modify personal information through their Teachnow account.

Users should ensure that the information provided to Teachnow is accurate, complete and up to date.

If you are unable to correct information through your account, you may contact:

support@teachnow.in

TutorKhoj may take reasonable steps to verify the identity of a requester before processing certain requests.

25. Withdrawal of Consent

Where processing is based on consent, users may withdraw consent through the mechanism provided by Teachnow or by contacting us.

Withdrawal of consent will not affect processing that:

·       Occurred before consent was withdrawn;

·       Is otherwise permitted or required by applicable law;

·       Is necessary to comply with a legal obligation;

·       Is necessary for security, fraud prevention or dispute resolution;

·       Is necessary for other lawful purposes where permitted by applicable law.

Withdrawal of consent may affect our ability to provide certain Platform features.

26. Data Portability / Data Export

Teachnow does not currently provide a self-service data-export functionality.

Where a user has a legally applicable right to obtain or receive personal information, the user may contact Teachnow at support@teachnow.in.

Requests will be considered and handled in accordance with applicable law.

27. Children’s Privacy

Teachnow is primarily intended for adults seeking employment and employers/recruiters.

Teachnow does not intentionally design its services for children under 18 years of age.

Individuals under 18 should not create a Teachnow job-seeker or employer account unless they are legally permitted to use the relevant service and any legally required parental or guardian consent has been obtained.

If Teachnow becomes aware that personal information relating to a child has been collected in circumstances where applicable law requires parental or guardian consent and such consent has not been obtained, TutorKhoj may take appropriate steps, including restricting or deactivating the account and deleting or otherwise handling the information as required by applicable law.

Parents or legal guardians who believe that a child has provided personal information to Teachnow may contact:

support@teachnow.in

TutorKhoj will take reasonable steps to address such requests in accordance with applicable law.
