1. Information we collect
We may collect information you choose to provide, including your name, email address, phone number, resume, employment and education history, career goals, target roles, intake responses, correspondence, scheduling information, signed agreements, feedback, and payment status.
When you visit the website, the site and its hosting providers may automatically receive limited technical information such as your IP address, browser or device type, referring page, and basic usage or security logs.
2. How we use information
Candidate Atlas may use personal information to:
- review inquiries and recommend an appropriate service;
- communicate with you and deliver resume, coaching, or related services;
- prepare agreements, schedule work, and confirm payments;
- maintain business, tax, and service records;
- protect the website, prevent misuse, and troubleshoot problems; and
- improve services and the client experience.
Candidate Atlas does not sell or rent personal information and does not use client resumes, names, stories, or testimonials publicly without permission.
3. Service providers and disclosures
Information may be processed or stored through service providers used to operate the business, such as website hosting, Google Forms, Google Drive, email, Jotform Sign, video-meeting tools, scheduling tools, and Venmo. Those providers handle information under their own terms and privacy practices.
Candidate Atlas may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to comply with law, respond to valid legal process, protect rights or safety, investigate misuse, or complete a business transfer. Information is shared only as needed for these purposes.
4. Data security and retention
Reasonable administrative and technical safeguards are used to protect personal information. No online system, email account, or storage service can be guaranteed completely secure, so please avoid sending sensitive information that is not necessary for your service.
Personal information is retained only as long as reasonably needed to provide services, maintain appropriate business and tax records, resolve disputes, and meet legal obligations. Information that is no longer needed may be deleted or de-identified.
5. Your choices
You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information maintained by Candidate Atlas. Some information may need to be retained for legal, tax, fraud-prevention, or recordkeeping purposes. You may also choose not to provide certain information, although that may limit the ability to evaluate an inquiry or provide a service.
6. Third-party links
The website may link to services or websites operated by others. Candidate Atlas does not control their privacy or security practices, and this policy does not apply to those third-party services.
7. Children's privacy
Candidate Atlas services and this website are intended for adults and are not directed to children under 13. Candidate Atlas does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
