MANSON PERSONAL DATA PRIVACY NOTICE
FOR JOB APPLICANTS IN THE UNITED STATES
Purpose and Scope
The purpose of this Personal Data Privacy Notice for job applicants is to inform those persons who apply for employment opportunities (“you” or “your”) with Manson Construction Co. about how we collect, use, share and protect your personal data. Although this notice may be translated into other languages for convenience, the English language version is the controlling version.
Privacy and data protection laws vary around the world and among the individual states, provinces, and districts or zones within certain countries. In some jurisdictions, privacy laws grant you certain specific rights regarding your personal data. We refer to these types of privacy laws as “Comprehensive Privacy Laws.” An example of a Comprehensive Privacy Law that may apply to us is the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended.
We use this notice to inform you, as a job applicant, of certain specific rights you have under Comprehensive Privacy Laws with respect your personal data. If you have general questions about our collection and use of personal data, please see our Privacy Statement.
When we refer to “personal data” in this notice, we mean any information, data, or data element, whether in electronic or other form, that, alone or in combination with other elements, can be used to distinguish, trace, or discover your identity. Certain data privacy laws include specific elements or defined terms for what they consider to be personal data (sometimes also referred to as “personal information” or a variation thereof). Where such data privacy laws apply to our processing of your personal data, the term “personal data” includes the specific elements and defined terms required by such laws.
What are the sources from which we collect your personal data?
-
Directly from you (online or in-person), such as through the application or hiring process;
-
From other parties to which you direct us, such as former employers identified in your application materials, and companies or persons you may list as references;
-
From external third party sources such as:
-
publicly available information;
-
your publicly available content on social media platforms; and
-
other third parties, such as background check agencies, law enforcement authorities (if and to the extent permitted by applicable law), and applicant tracking tools and services.
-
What categories of personal data do we collect?
If you apply for employment, we may, subject to the requirements of local law, collect some or all of the following personal data about you:
-
General Identifiers – such as contact details like name, email address, and phone number and your relevant education and professional work experience;
-
Government Identifiers – such as drivers’ license, passport, Social Security number or other national identification number, and proof of your ability to work in the relevant jurisdiction;
-
Special Characteristics – such as demographic/diversity data which may include gender, nationality, language preference, work authorization status, and/or age;
-
Inference Data – such as inferences about your working style, interpersonal skills and the like drawn from the application or interview process
-
Audio/Visual Data – such as video recordings either from CCTV on premise or during the job interview process where applicable;
-
Internet Activity Data – such as browsing history and related information regarding your interaction with our websites or candidate portals;
-
Background Data – such as potentially sensitive data generated by background checks including past criminal history, credit history and whether you are subject to sanctions; and
-
Other Data – any other data you may voluntarily choose to provide to us as part of your application, including during the interview process.
Why do we process your personal data?
The provision of personal data by you is necessary in order for us to: (a) fulfill our legal obligations (e.g., verify your eligibility to work in the applicable location), and (b) process your application and consider you for a position with us including by conducting interviews, collecting references, and undertaking certain types of background checks all to make the most appropriate recruitment decisions for our business. If you choose to respond to any voluntary self-identification questions, we will process any responses as required under our federal contract obligations.
Processing personal data from applicants allows us to:
-
review and manage candidate applications and supporting materials;
-
administer and manage employment and engagement offers and communications with candidates;
-
meet our obligations with respect to any recruiting agencies that are acting on your behalf;
-
administer, manage, and improve our recruiting operations; and
-
comply with our legal obligations.
Unless you expressly give us your permission to do so, we will not use your personal data for any purposes unrelated to the purposes we describe in this notice.
Processing based on your consent:
In certain limited cases involving applicants from certain jurisdictions, we will ask for the affected data subjects’ express consent to allow us to process their personal data when:
-
we perform background checks related to your credit history, driving record, or criminal records; or
-
the personal data in question is specifically designated as “sensitive” or being in a “special category” under applicable Comprehensive Privacy Laws (generally speaking this is similar to the “Special Characteristics” data described above)
When so required, we will provide those applicants with an opportunity to consent by sending, to the email address you provided to us, links to applicable notices and disclosures, and a mechanism for providing or declining to provide consent. In such cases, you can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us using the contact information in this notice. Withdrawing your consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing we conducted prior to your withdrawal. Whether or not you provide consent is not in and of itself a condition of any prospective employment with us. If, however, you decline to provide consent, or certain information, when requested, we may not be able to obtain the information we need to follow our own hiring procedures or comply with applicable law, and therefore may be prevented from offering you employment.
With whom do we share personal data?
Though Manson does not sell any candidate personal data for monetary compensation, we do share certain personal data with the following in connection with the activities described in this notice:
-
