3. Sensitive Personal Information

We do not use or disclose sensitive personal information we collect for purposes other than those generally permitted under California law, including as needed to perform our services, verify and maintain the quality and safety of our services, and resist fraud or illegal actions. We collect the following sensitive personal information. 

We process personal information about you, in accordance with applicable law and this Notice, for the purposes of administering your application with us, administering our recruitment process generally, and running our business operations.

Processing for these general purposes includes, but is not limited to, processing for the following specific purposes:

• communication with you;
• management of your application process;
• Management of our recruitment process;
• background checks and drug checks, to the extent permitted by applicable law;
• reimbursement of expenses in accordance with our policies;
• risk management;
• investigations and audits by SalesVista or governmental authorities;

• compliance with law

The broad classes of third parties to which we may transfer personal information about you in the above categories include:

• To our third-party service providers to facilitate the services they provide to us (e.g., IT service providers, background screening providers and employment benefit providers) so we can process your application.
• To fraud prevention agencies, law enforcement agencies, public and government authorities to meet our legal obligations.

We do not and do not intend “sell” personal information about you or “share” it for cross-context behavioral advertising, as defined under applicable privacy law. We also have not done so for the last 12 months. In addition, we do not share personal information with third parties for their direct marketing or advertising purposes.

For purposes of this Notice, “sold” means the disclosure of personal information for monetary or other valuable consideration and “cross-context behavioral advertising” means targeted advertising based on personal information obtained from your activity across businesses, distinctly‐branded websites, applications, or services, other than our websites and services with which you intentionally interact.

We will endeavor to ensure that all non-governmental third parties to which we transfer personal information about you agree, as part of their contract with us, to treat personal information about you in accordance with applicable privacy laws.

We store personal information about you in physical files or on computer systems operated by or under the instruction of SalesVista, and/or in hard copy form at our premises or at off-site storage locations leased to SalesVista.

In general, we aim to keep personal information only for as long as necessary and only for the reason(s) we collected it. It may be necessary to keep personal information longer than our official retention periods for legal or regulatory reasons, including litigation.

We consider the following criteria when determining how long a particular record will be retained, including any personal information contained in that record:

• How long the record is needed to manage your application
• How long the record is needed to support and enhance our operational processes
• How long the record is needed to protect our rights and legal interests
• How long the record must be retained to comply with applicable laws and regulations

The same personal information about you may be included in more than one record and used for more than one purpose, each of which may be subject to different retention periods based on the factors listed above.

In addition, any personal information contained in any application-related correspondence (such as emails) or other records may be retained for longer periods depending on the retention period of the file in which your personal information is held.

We have reasonable measures in place to prevent personal information from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorized way. We limit access to personal information to those who have a business need for such access. Those individuals who process personal information on our behalf may do so only in an authorized manner. They are also subject to a duty of confidentiality. We limit access to our premises and to our computer networks, and we take reasonable steps to safeguard against unauthorized access to such premises and networks. We have procedures in place to manage any suspected information security breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of an information security breach consistent with legal requirements.

Depending on where you live, your current jurisdiction and applicable privacy laws, and subject to any relevant restrictions/exemption, you may be entitled to all or some of the rights described below regarding your personal information, subject to certain conditions and limitations. Only those rights relevant in your jurisdiction will apply, and our inclusion of information about privacy laws does not imply that all privacy laws are applicable. We may, however, choose to offer these rights, even if we are not required to under applicable privacy law.

If you are a California resident, you may have these rights.

• Right to Know – You may be entitled to request that we disclose to you the personal information we have collected about you, the categories of sources from which we collected the information, the purposes of collecting the information, the categories of third parties with whom we have shared the information, the categories of personal information that we have shared with third parties for a business purpose, the categories of information sold, and the categories of third parties information is sold to. In some instances, you may have the right to receive information about you in a portable and readily usable format. Before providing any of this information, we must be able to verify your identity.
• Right to Opt-Out – You may have the right to opt out of information sharing that constitutes “selling” or “sharing” personal information under California law.
• Right to Limit –You may have the right to direct us to limit our use of your sensitive personal information to certain purposes.
• Right to Deletion – Subject to certain conditions, you may be entitled to request that we delete personal information about you. Before deleting personal information, we must be able to verify your identity. We will not delete personal information about you when the information is required to fulfill a legal obligation, is necessary to exercise or defend legal claims, or where we are required or permitted to retain the information by law. For example, we cannot delete certain personal information about you while continuing to provide you with certain products and services or where we are legally required to retain certain information.
• Right to Correction – You may be entitled to request that we correct inaccurate personal information. Before collecting personal information, we must be able to verify your identity. We will not correct personal information about you when the information is required to fulfill a legal obligation, is necessary to exercise or defend legal claims, or where we are required or permitted to retain the information as-is by law.

Data solely retained for data backup purposes is principally excluded from these rights until it is restored to an active system or next accessed or used for a sale, disclosure, or commercial purpose.

If you chose to exercise any of these rights, to the extent that they apply, privacy law prohibits us from discriminating against you on the basis of choosing to exercise your privacy rights.

Please note that under applicable privacy law, we are only obligated to respond to personal information requests from the same California resident up to two times in a 12-month period. In addition, under applicable privacy law, and for the protection of your personal information, we may be limited in what personal information we can disclose.

Before providing information, your request in accordance with these rights, we must be able to verify your identity. In order to verify your identity, you will need to submit information about yourself, including your name, contact information, and other reasonable information as requested by SalesVista. [2] We will match this information against information we have previously collected about you or provided to you to verify your identity and your request. If we are unable to verify your identity as part of your request, we will not be able to satisfy your request. We are not obligated to collect additional information in order to enable you to verify your identity. For deletion requests, you will be required to submit a verifiable request for deletion and then confirm separately that you want personal information about you deleted.

If you would like to appoint an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf, you must provide the agent with written, signed permission to submit privacy right requests on your behalf. Alternatively, your authorized agent may provide evidence of having power of attorney or acting as a conservator for you. Note that we may require you to verify your identity with us directly before we provide any requested information to your authorized agent unless your authorized agent has power of attorney or acts as a conservator, in which case we will not contact you directly.

Information collected for purposes of verifying your request will only be used for verification.
