Privacy Policy
Collection of Personal and Behavioral Information
To operate our platform effectively and tailor your experience, we gather both personal details and usage-related data. This may include your name, email address, phone number, and employment or profile-related information. We also track how you interact with our website, such as pages visited, searches performed, and features you use, to understand what content is most relevant to you. At times, we may combine this data with information provided by trusted third-party partners to improve accuracy and personalization. Additionally, we may convert your information into aggregated or anonymized formats, which are used for analytics, system enhancement, marketing insights, and internal reporting.
Aggregated and Non-Identifiable Information
Apart from collecting personal data, we also generate and use “Aggregated Data,” which consists of statistical and demographic insights derived from user activity. Although this information may originate from your Personal Information, it cannot be used to identify you. For example, we may study general usage trends to understand how often users access specific features. If certain Personal Information is required to meet legal requirements or to fulfill a contract with you, withholding that information may limit our ability to provide the associated services. In such cases, we may be unable to continue offering access, and you acknowledge that service cancellation may occur as a condition of using the platform.
How We Collect Your Data
We employ several methods to collect Personal Data from and about you:
- Website Interactions: While you navigate our website, we may automatically gather Technical and Usage Data. This can include device identifiers, browsing patterns, and activity logs. We collect this information using cookies, server logs, pixels, and similar technologies. If you visit third-party sites that incorporate our tracking tools, we may also receive related Technical or Usage Data from those interactions.
- External Sources: We may acquire Personal Data from third-party platforms, including analytics services and business information providers. For clients, we may enhance the Business Information you provide with additional third-party insights. We may also gather Business or Contact Information for individuals who have not yet registered an account.
- Client-Instructed Processing: In some cases, clients direct us to handle Personal Data on their behalf. In these situations, we act strictly as a service provider and do not maintain a direct relationship with the individuals concerned. Requests for access, correction, or deletion of data should generally be made to the relevant client unless exceptional circumstances require us to respond directly.
Processing Your Personal Information
We process your Personal Data to provide, protect, and enhance our Services while ensuring compliance with applicable laws and maintaining a secure environment.
- Service Provision: Personal Data is required to deliver the Services you request efficiently. Certain information may be shared with third-party partners or service providers assisting in Service delivery. Without this data, we cannot provide or maintain the Services effectively.
- Customer Support: Your information allows us to respond to questions, feedback, complaints, or disputes, ensuring seamless and reliable use of our Services.
- Monitoring and Compliance: We track user activity to prevent prohibited or unauthorized actions. Personal Data is necessary to enforce our agreements, collect payments, and uphold policies and legal obligations.
- Safety and Security: We use data to prevent malware, spam, and security threats, improve security measures, and verify identities to ensure a safe environment for all users.
- Research and Innovation: Personal Data helps us improve features, develop new functionalities, and create personalized experiences.
If we intend to use your data for purposes beyond those described, you will be notified, though some Services may become limited if usage is restricted.
Third-Party Data Sharing
We may share your Personal Data with third parties to support Service delivery, compliance, and operational efficiency. Recipients may include employers reviewing profiles, service providers, affiliated businesses, and legal authorities. Each is responsible for using and protecting your information under its own privacy policies. We may also disclose data to meet legal obligations, enforce company policies, prevent security threats, or respond to emergencies. In the event of mergers, acquisitions, or partnerships, your information may be transferred to the new entity to maintain continuity. While we carefully select partners, third parties manage data independently, and users are encouraged to review their privacy practices.
Exercising Your Privacy Rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, update, correct, or request deletion of your Personal Data. You may also be able to restrict or opt out of certain processing activities, subject to legal conditions and exceptions. To exercise any of these rights, please contact admin@freighthiring.com, and we will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law.
Third-Party Website Links
Our website may contain links to external sites operated by third parties. These sites have their own privacy policies, and we do not control their content, practices, or security. We recommend reviewing the privacy policies of any third-party websites before providing personal information or interacting with them.
Data Security and Retention
We protect your privacy with robust security measures, including encryption, access controls, and secure storage systems. While these safeguards minimize risk, no online platform can guarantee complete security. Your information is retained only as long as necessary to provide Services, meet legal obligations, resolve disputes, and fulfill contractual commitments. Certain data may remain in backups or archives for a limited period.
Policy Updates
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect operational, legal, or technological changes. The revised policy will be posted on our services, so reviewing it periodically helps you stay informed about how we handle your data.
California Privacy Rights
California residents have rights under the CCPA, including access, deletion, and opting out of the sale of their data. Requests can be submitted to admin@freighthiring.com.
