Welcome to the BranchOut Privacy Center ‐ please look around. You'll learn how BranchOut treats your personal information and ways to control your preferences and settings. BranchOut wants you to succeed and is committed to helping members like you network in a safe and trusted way.

Your Professional Profile on BranchOut

BranchOut was built to provide Facebook users a place to establish a professional profile and professionally network among contacts. A BranchOut professional profile is the solution to keeping your Facebook content private, while displaying your professional profile to your network, the world of recruiters, HR managers, and employers. Importantly, BranchOut only accesses information to help you establish your professional network and profile, such as your network of friends. We do not access or request your other personal information, such as status updates, wall posts, interests, check-ins and current location.

The Safe and Private BranchOut Environment

Since most people get their jobs through their real friends, the value of a person's Facebook network in finding a job or warm introduction is invaluable. BranchOut gives you the ability to identify friends and friends-of-friends at the companies you want to work with, and see open jobs with these inside connections.

We want you to know that your private Facebook profile cannot be accessed through BranchOut by anyone that does not already have access to it based on your Facebook Privacy Settings. BranchOut only shows your name, profile picture, work history, and education and other professional information you choose to share on BranchOut. Our use of limited information keeps your private life on Facebook and your professional profile on BranchOut. This means that your status updates, photo albums, and other personal information are not visible on BranchOut to your contacts, including employers, recruiters and your professional contacts. For this reason, BranchOut is also the perfect place to connect with professional contacts when you do not want to friend them on Facebook.

We fundamentally believe BranchOut will change job search, recruiting, business introductions and professional networking by allowing users to fully utilize their social network. Privacy is a top concern. We want you to succeed professionally, whether that means finding a job, recruiting talent, looking for warm introductions or helping your friends. If you have questions or feedback regarding our privacy policy, please feel free to contact us. A prompt response will follow.
