Human Resources: Cytiva.com and SonicRecruit.com Certified to Display TRUSTe Privacy Seal of Approval

Emeryville, CA (PRWEB) June 2, 2009 –– Cytiva Software, Inc. (CRX;TSX.V), a leading provider of on-demand talent acquisition software solutions, today announced that its Web site has been certified to display the TRUSTe Privacy Seal, which demonstrates its commitment to consumer privacy and trust online. TRUSTe, the leading privacy certification and seal program, awards its privacy seal only to companies that complete the rigorous TRUSTe certification process and agree to comply with ongoing oversight and TRUSTe’s consumer dispute resolution process.

Cytiva was awarded this seal for its corporate site, SonicRecruit.com as well as the separate domain, Cytiva.com, where it hosts career sites for clients of its SaaS recruiting software, SonicRecruit.

"By becoming a TRUSTe sealholder, Cytiva gives its customers a clear signal that it is trustworthy and respects the privacy wishes of the people who visit its Web site," said Fran Maier, CEO of TRUSTe. "Cytiva joins more than 3,000 organizations committed to building consumer trust online through participation in the TRUSTe Privacy Seal program."

The TRUSTe Privacy Seal is one of the most recognized branded symbols of trust among consumers. The TRUSTe Privacy Seal communicates that a Web site has posted a privacy statement and that its information gathering and dissemination practices follow guidelines for notice, choice, access, security and redress outlined in the Federal Trade Commission's Fair Information Practices. Specifically, TRUSTe sealholders agree to:

Disclose their information gathering and dissemination practices;
Give consumers choice to limit any secondary uses of their personal information through opt-in or opt-out;
Provide users with access to their personal information to correct any inaccuracies; and
Ensure that reasonable security mechanisms are being used to protect the data that is collected.

"Being awarded the TRUSTe seal is just one of a number of ways we work to ensure that our client's data is kept private," said Jason Moreau CEO of Cytiva. "TRUSTe certification, secure data centers, regular penetration tests, hardware based intrusion protection all of these measures demonstrate Cytiva's leadership in security and privacy protection in the talent management arena."

Ongoing monitoring and the Watchdog Consumer Dispute Resolution mechanism are cornerstones of the TRUSTe Privacy Seal and Certification Program. Through automated monitoring, TRUSTe systematically monitors the practices of seal program participants to ensure ongoing compliance with program requirements. In addition, TRUSTe provides consumers and organizations an effective, easy-to-use method to resolve privacy disputes through its online Watchdog Dispute Resolution service.
