The Personal Information we collect from Job Applicants will be retained for as long as necessary to satisfy the purposes for which it was collected and our legal obligations. As described above, these purposes include our business operations and complying with reporting, legal and accounting obligations. In determining how long to retain information, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of the Personal Information, the purposes for which we process the Personal Information and whether we can achieve those purposes in other ways, the applicable legal requirements, and our legitimate interests.

Additional Privacy Information for Residents of Certain Jurisdictions

Depending on applicable law in your jurisdiction of residence, you may have certain rights regarding your Personal Information. Subject to certain exceptions, if you are a resident of a jurisdiction that provides such rights, you may request:

• access to your Personal Information including the right to know the categories of Personal Information we have or will collect about you and the reason we will or have collected such information;
• correction of the Personal Information that we have or will hold about you that is inaccurate;
• deletion or removal of your Personal Information.

You may also have the right not to be discriminated against (as provided for by applicable law) for exercising your rights.

Exceptions to Your Rights: There are certain exceptions to these rights. For instance, we may retain your Personal Information if it is reasonably necessary for us or our service providers to provide a service that you have requested or to comply with law or to detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity or prosecute those responsible for that activity.

Exercising Your Rights: To exercise one of the rights above, you may contact us as provided below.

We will take reasonable steps to verify your identity before responding to a request. In doing so, we may ask you for verification information so that we can match at least two verification points with information we maintain in our files about you. If we are unable to verify you through this method, we shall have the right, but not the obligation, to request additional information from you.

For California Residents: California law places certain obligations on businesses that "sell" Personal Information to third parties or "share" Personal Information with third parties for "cross-context behavioral advertising" as those terms are defined under the California Consumer Privacy Act ("CCPA"). We do not "sell" or "share" the Personal Information covered by this Policy and have not done so in the twelve months prior to the effective date of this Policy.
