MynJobs has set up security measures to protect you from the loss or unauthorized use of your supplied personal information. As well, our MynJobs servers are equipped with firewall technology.

MynJobs declines any responsibility in the event that such confidential information is disclosed, unless caused by negligence on the part of MynJobs.

It is therefore important to keep this information confidential. MynJobs cannot be held liable for possible damages caused by the disclosure of information transmitted over the Internet, given that it is impossible to guarantee absolute security. Please be vigilant. To reduce these risks, as a parent, you should exercise a reasonable amount of supervision of Internet use by your children and teenagers. They should be told to never give out their personal information, such as their name, address or phone number, on any Internet forum. It is also important that children and teenagers be encouraged to share their concerns with you in the event that they receive disturbing or provocative messages. These recommendations will help your children and teenagers surf the Internet in an informed fashion and allow you to ensure that they fully benefit from the learning and development possibilities that exist online.8 Cookies Policy
