Last Updated: August 25, 2025

Welcome to CareersSource.com (“we,” “our,” or “us”). We respect your privacy and are committed to being transparent about how we collect, use, and share information when you use our Site and related services, including subdomains like GoodbyeKitty.CareersSource.com and Kilroy.CareersSource.com (collectively, the “Site”).

This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and what you can expect when using our parody-driven landing pages and affiliate redirects.

1. Information We Collect

We collect limited information to operate CareersSource.com and its subdomains effectively.

A. Information You Provide Voluntarily

  • Contact information (e.g., names, email addresses) when you submit forms.
  • Feedback, inquiries, or other messages you send to us.

B. Automatically Collected Data

  • Log information: IP address, browser type, device type, referring URLs, and access times.
  • Cookies & analytics: Used for performance tracking and affiliate attribution.

C. Third-Party Data via Redirects

When you visit certain subdomains or click affiliate links, our partners (e.g., job boards, résumé builders) may collect additional data governed by their privacy policies.

2. Subdomains, Parody, and Redirects

CareersSource.com operates a network of parody-friendly subdomains (e.g., GoodbyeKitty, Kilroy) designed to add a bit of personality and satire to the job-hunting experience.

By visiting these subdomains, you acknowledge and understand that:

  1. Affiliate Forwarding
    • Some subdomains may forward you directly to third-party job boards, résumé tools, or other employment-related resources.
    • We may receive a commission if you click through an affiliate link or engage with services provided on those external sites.
  2. Parody Experiences
    • Certain subdomains may display satirical or parody-themed landing pages before redirecting you to real job boards.
    • These pages may include fictional elements, humorous content, or mock job listings intended for entertainment.
    • Any parody content does not represent actual job listings unless otherwise clearly stated.
  3. Eventual Redirection
    • Whether you see parody content first or not, these subdomains are ultimately designed to guide you to real career-related destinations.

3. How We Use Your Information

We may use collected data to:

  • Operate and improve our Site and parody subdomains.
  • Track affiliate performance.
  • Monitor security and resolve technical issues.
  • Serve landing pages that blend parody elements with legitimate redirects.

4. Affiliate Relationships & Transparency

We partner with third-party job boards, résumé services, and career platforms.

  • Some subdomains may instantly redirect you to these partners via affiliate links.
  • Others may show short-form parody content first, then forward you.
  • We are not responsible for the data collection practices of those external partners.

Please review each destination’s own privacy policy before submitting personal information.

5. Cookies & Analytics

We may use cookies, pixels, or similar technologies to:

  • Measure traffic and engagement on parody subdomains.
  • Attribute affiliate conversions accurately.

We take reasonable measures to protect your data, but no system is 100% secure.

We cannot guarantee absolute protection against breaches, hacks, or unauthorized access.

8. Children’s Privacy

CareersSource.com and its parody subdomains are not directed to individuals under 16.

We do not knowingly collect information from children.

9. Third-Party Links & External Sites

Our subdomains may forward you to third-party job boards or other employment platforms.

Please note:

  • Those external sites operate under their own privacy policies.

Embedded content from other websites

Suggested text: Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Who we share your data with

Suggested text: If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

How long we retain your data

Suggested text: If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where your data is sent
