This Privacy Policy describes how Flok LLC, which operates Hirebase ("we", "us", or "our"), collects, uses, and discloses personal information when you use our website www.hirebase.org, our web app, our API and our other services (together, the "Service"). Flok LLC is the controller of the personal information described here.
Information We Collect
We may collect the following types of personal information when you use the Service:
- Information you provide voluntarily: When you interact with the Service, such as when you fill out forms, subscribe to our newsletter, or contact us, we may collect personal information such as your name, email address, company name, and any other information you choose to provide.
- Automatically collected information: We may also automatically collect certain information about your device and usage of the Service, including your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URLs, and other usage information.
- Account and content information: When you create an account or use the web app, we collect your account details, billing information (processed by Stripe; we do not store card numbers), and content you upload, such as resumes and saved searches.
How We Use Your Information
- To provide, operate, and improve the Service and our AI services;
- To communicate with you, including responding to your inquiries and providing customer support;
- To send you marketing and promotional communications, if you have opted in to receive such communications;
- To personalize your experience on the Service and to deliver content and product offerings relevant to your interests;
- To analyze usage trends and preferences to improve our services;
- To comply with legal and regulatory requirements; and
- For any other purpose for which you have provided consent.
Professional Contact Data
Our Hiring Manager feature helps businesses find the right person to contact about a job opening. To provide it, we process information about professionals who did not sign up for Hirebase, such as hiring managers and recruiters:
- What we process: name, job title, employer, work email address, phone number, and links to public professional profiles.
- Where it comes from: publicly available professional information, such as job postings, company websites and public professional profiles, and licensed third-party data providers.
- Why: to let our business customers contact professionals about matters relevant to their role, such as recruiting, partnerships or sales. We rely on legitimate interests (ours and our customers') and do not process sensitive categories of data.
- Who receives it: business customers who request it through the Service. Our Terms of Service require them to have a lawful basis for any use, to comply with data protection and marketing laws, to honour opt-outs, and not to use it for spam or harassment.
- How to opt out: email [email protected] with the subject "Remove my data". We will stop providing your information to customers and tell customers who received it to delete it.
Legal Bases for Processing
If you are in the United Kingdom or the European Economic Area, we process personal information on these legal bases: to perform our contract with you (for example, to run your account); our legitimate interests (for example, to secure and improve the Service and to provide professional contact data, as described above); your consent (for example, for marketing emails and non-essential cookies, which you can withdraw at any time); and to comply with legal obligations.
Sharing Your Information
- With service providers who assist us in operating the Service or conducting our business, such as analytics providers and customer support services;
- With our affiliates and subsidiaries;
- In response to a subpoena, court order, or other legal process;
- To protect our rights or property, or the rights or property of others; and
- With your consent or at your direction.
Data Retention
We will retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. When you delete your account, we delete your account information and uploaded content, such as resumes, except where we must keep records (for example, invoices) by law.
International Transfers
We are based in the United States, and our service providers may process personal information in the United States and other countries. Where UK or EU law requires it, we use appropriate safeguards, such as standard contractual clauses, for these transfers.
Your Choices
You may choose not to provide certain personal information, but this may limit your ability to use certain features of the Service. You can also unsubscribe from our marketing communications at any time by following the instructions provided in the communication.
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete or receive a copy of your personal information, to object to or restrict how we process it, and to opt out of our disclosure of it to customers. To make a request, email [email protected]. We will not discriminate against you for exercising these rights. If you are in the UK or EEA, you can also complain to your data protection authority, such as the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).
Security
We take reasonable measures to protect the personal information we collect from unauthorized access, use, and disclosure. However, no data transmission over the Internet or storage system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.
Children's Privacy
The Service is not intended for children under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If you believe we have collected information from a child under 16, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.
