Privacy Policy
How We Manage Your Information
We collect a range of details to improve our services and deliver a more personalized experience. This includes the information you provide directly, such as your name, contact details, and employment data, along with records of how you interact with our platform, including pages viewed, searches made, and actions taken. We may also incorporate information from trusted third-party sources to refine our services, tailor content, and better understand user preferences. In some situations, your data may be anonymized or aggregated so it cannot be linked back to you, and may then be applied for analysis, marketing, or operational purposes.
Aggregated Data and Service Requirements
We may use non-personal aggregated data, such as demographic trends or usage statistics, which are derived from personal information but cannot be traced back to you. For instance, individual activity may be combined with that of other users to measure overall feature adoption rates. Additionally, if the law or contractual obligations require us to collect certain personal details and you choose not to provide them, we may be unable to deliver or maintain the service. In such circumstances, cancellation of the service may be necessary, and by using our platform, you acknowledge this condition.
Data Collection Practices
To deliver services effectively and enhance the overall user experience, we collect personal data through a variety of channels.
- Website Usage: When you interact with our platform, we may automatically record both personal and non-personal details. This can include technical data such as your IP address, browser configuration, and device type, along with usage information like the pages you view, clicks made, and navigation paths followed. These details are collected through cookies, tracking tools, and server logs, and may also include data from other websites that utilize our integrated technologies.
- Third-Party Sources: We may also receive information from external partners, including analytics providers. For clients, we may gather additional business or contact data from outside sources, sometimes about individuals who have not directly engaged with our platform.
- Client-Directed Processing: When handling personal data on behalf of clients, we process such information strictly in line with their directions. We do not establish an independent relationship with the individuals concerned. Requests to access, modify, or delete personal data are referred to the respective client, though in limited cases, we may help directly.
Purposes for Processing Your Personal Data
We use your personal information for specific purposes designed to ensure efficiency, compliance, and protection.
- Service Delivery: Your data enables us to provide the services you request, sometimes in collaboration with third-party providers. Without this, services cannot function properly.
- Support and Assistance: We rely on your information to respond to inquiries, address issues, and manage requests. Without it, effective customer support is not possible.
- Legal and Contractual Duties: Personal data is processed to enforce agreements, manage billing, and prevent breaches of policy. Without these measures, lawful and fair service operations cannot be maintained.
- Security Safeguards: Your information helps us verify identities, detect fraudulent activity, block malware, and maintain system integrity. Without processing, safety and security would be compromised.
- Service Improvement: By analyzing usage patterns, we enhance features and innovate new solutions. If new purposes arise beyond those listed, you will be informed, and you may restrict such processing, though doing so could limit your access to certain features.
Circumstances of Information Sharing
We disclose personal data only in limited circumstances and for legitimate business reasons. Your information may be shared with employers, affiliates, or service providers who support the delivery and improvement of our Services. Each recipient is independently responsible for handling the data in line with applicable privacy laws and their own policies. In certain cases, disclosure may be legally required, such as for compliance with regulations, cooperation with authorities, or to enforce our rights. Information may also be shared when necessary to protect users from security risks, fraud, or misuse. Should our company undergo a merger, acquisition, or other corporate transition, your information may be transferred to the acquiring or successor organization. We take steps to ensure that any sharing of data is appropriate, transparent, and consistent with our commitment to always safeguard your privacy.
Your Rights and Options
Depending on the privacy framework in your region, you may hold rights regarding your personal information. These rights may involve accessing your data, correcting errors, requesting updates, asking for deletion, or limiting the ways in which your data is processed. Such rights can vary and may be subject to lawful restrictions. To exercise them, please reach out to us at admin@thoughtfullhirings.com, and we will address your request within the period defined by law.
External Website Links
Our services may provide links to third-party websites or applications. Each of these is governed by its own privacy policies, which we neither manage nor control. While we aim to connect users to reliable and secure sources, we cannot guarantee their practices, safety measures, or policies. We recommend reviewing the privacy terms of any external websites before engaging with them or providing personal details.
Information Security and Retention
We take comprehensive steps to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, misuse, or modification. These protections include advanced technical safeguards, organizational procedures, and physical security controls. While we prioritize security, no storage or transmission system can be guaranteed fully secure. Personal data is retained only as long as necessary to deliver our services, comply with legal standards, address disputes, and honour contractual terms. Archived or cached copies may also be stored briefly before being permanently deleted.
Policy Modifications
From time to time, this Privacy Policy may be revised to reflect updates in operations, technological advancements, or regulatory changes. Updated versions will be posted, and users are encouraged to review the policy regularly.
California Consumer Rights
California residents, under the CCPA, have the right to request access to their data, request deletion, or opt out of its sale. To make a request, please contact us at admin@thoughtfullhirings.com.
