Who this policy covers
This Privacy Policy applies to information collected by Shyft6 LLC, a Florida limited liability company (“Shyft6,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), through shyft6.com, our careers and application pages, our chat, email, phone, and text-message channels, and any other interaction that links to this policy (together, the “Services”). It covers:
- Visitors who browse our website or use our chat widget;
- Job seekers and candidates who apply for a role, submit a resume, join our talent network, are referred to us, or whom we identify through sourcing;
- Business contacts at current and prospective clients, suppliers, and partners.
By using the Services or providing information to us, you acknowledge the practices described here. If you do not agree, please do not use the Services or submit information to us.
This policy does not govern information we handle solely on behalf of a client under that client’s instructions and its own privacy notice, or the personnel records of Shyft6 employees, which are covered by internal notices. If a separate written agreement or notice we give you conflicts with this policy, that agreement or notice controls.
Information we collect
Information you give us
- Contact and identity details— name, email address, phone number, mailing address, employer, job title.
- Candidate information— resume or CV, work history, education, skills, licenses and certifications, references, desired pay and current or past compensation where lawful to collect, availability, shift and location preferences, work authorization status, interview notes, assessment results, and anything else you include in an application or share with a recruiter.
- Onboarding and placement information— if you move forward for a role, information needed for onboarding, credentialing, payroll, and compliance, such as government identifiers, tax forms, banking details for direct deposit, background-check and drug-screen results, immunization or health records required for a worksite, and emergency contacts. We collect these with separate notices and authorizations where the law requires them.
- Voluntary demographic information— such as race, ethnicity, gender, veteran status, or disability status, where you choose to provide it for equal-opportunity reporting. Providing it is optional and it is not used to make hiring decisions.
- Communications— the content of emails, chat conversations, text messages, voicemails, form submissions, and call or meeting notes.
Information collected automatically
- IP address and approximate location derived from it, device and browser type, operating system, referring pages, pages viewed, links clicked, and the dates and times of visits;
- Cookie and similar identifiers set by us and by our analytics and chat providers (see Cookies, analytics, and chat);
- Email engagement data, such as whether a message was opened or a link was clicked.
Information from other sources
- Job boards, resume databases, professional networking sites, and other publicly available or licensed sources we use to find candidates;
- Referrals, references, former employers, schools, and licensing or credentialing bodies;
- Staffing suppliers, vendors, and clients who submit or share candidate or worker information with us;
- Background-check, drug-screening, and verification providers, where you have authorized the check;
- Data enrichment, marketing, and lead-generation providers, and our affiliated companies.
We may combine information from all of these sources into a single profile.
How we use information
We use the information we collect for our business and commercial purposes, including to:
- Operate, maintain, secure, and improve the Services and our business;
- Recruit, evaluate, screen, match, submit, place, onboard, pay, and manage candidates and workers, for the role you applied to and for any other current or future opportunity with Shyft6, our affiliates, or our clients;
- Build and maintain a talent network, and contact you about roles, events, and services we think may interest you;
- Respond to inquiries, provide proposals, and deliver services to clients, suppliers, and partners;
- Send administrative, transactional, and marketing communications by email, phone, text message, chat, and other channels, subject to your choices and applicable law;
- Perform analytics, reporting, benchmarking, research, and product development, including developing, testing, and improving software, workflows, and automated tools;
- Create de-identified or aggregated information, which we may use and disclose for any lawful purpose without restriction;
- Verify identity and credentials, prevent fraud and misuse, and protect the rights, safety, and property of Shyft6, our clients, our workers, and others;
- Comply with legal, regulatory, tax, audit, contractual, and record-keeping obligations, and establish, exercise, or defend legal claims;
- Evaluate or carry out a merger, financing, sale, reorganization, or other corporate transaction;
- Carry out any other purpose described to you when the information is collected, or that is reasonably related to the purposes above.
Job seekers and candidates
If you apply for a role, send us a resume, join our talent network, or otherwise engage with a Shyft6 recruiter, you understand and agree that:
- We may consider you for, and contact you about, any role we or our clients are filling, now or in the future, not only the role you applied to;
- We may share your information with clients, affiliates, and participating suppliers in connection with those opportunities. Where practical, a recruiter will speak with you before formally submitting you to a specific client role;
- We may keep your profile in our talent database after a search ends, whether or not you were placed, so we can match you to future opportunities, until you ask us to remove it (see Your choices and rights);
- We may supplement your profile with information from references, public sources, and third-party providers;
- The role you are considered for may be with a Shyft6 client rather than with Shyft6, and that client, not Shyft6, makes its own hiring decisions;
- Background checks, drug screens, and similar verifications are run only with the disclosures and authorizations required by law, which you will receive separately.
Our online application pages are hosted by a third-party applicant-tracking provider. Information you submit there is collected on our behalf and handled under this policy; the provider’s own terms and privacy notice also apply to your use of its platform.
Shyft6 is an equal opportunity employer. We do not use personal information to discriminate unlawfully against any applicant or worker.
Automated tools and AI
We use software, including tools that rely on machine learning and artificial intelligence, to help run our business. For example, we may use these tools to parse resumes, organize and search candidate profiles, suggest matches between candidates and roles, draft and schedule communications, transcribe and summarize conversations, and analyze program performance. Some of these tools are provided by third parties that process information on our behalf.
These tools support our recruiters and staff; decisions about whether to advance, submit, or place a candidate involve human review. If you would like more information about how a tool was used in connection with your candidacy, or to request an alternative process or accommodation where the law provides one, contact us at inquiries@shyft6.com.
Text messaging
If you give us your mobile number and consent to receive text messages, we may text you about job opportunities, applications, interviews, onboarding, scheduling, assignments, and related matters. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to any message to opt out, or HELP for help. Consent to receive texts is not a condition of applying for or obtaining any role. Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.
Notwithstanding anything else in this policy, we do not share mobile phone numbers collected for text messaging, or text-messaging opt-in data and consent, with third parties or affiliates for their marketing or promotional purposes. We share this information only with service providers that help us deliver messages, such as messaging platforms and carriers.
Retention
We keep information for as long as we have a business or legal reason to do so. For candidates, that generally means for as long as we maintain a talent network and you have not asked us to remove your profile, plus any period needed to meet record-keeping obligations, resolve disputes, or defend legal claims. Records relating to applications, placements, payroll, and compliance may be retained for the periods required or permitted by law even after a deletion request. De-identified and aggregated information may be retained indefinitely.
Security
We use administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect information appropriate to its sensitivity. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. Please do not send sensitive information, such as Social Security numbers or bank details, through the website chat, the contact form, or ordinary email; we will give you a secure method when that information is needed.
Your choices and rights
- Marketing email. Use the unsubscribe link in any marketing email, or contact us. We may still send you non-promotional messages about an application, assignment, or business relationship.
- Text messages. Reply STOP at any time.
- Your candidate profile. You may ask us to update your information, stop considering you for opportunities, or remove your profile from our talent database.
- Cookies. Use your browser settings and the opt-out tools described above.
Depending on where you live, you may have additional legal rights, such as the right to request access to, correction of, deletion of, or a copy of your personal information, to opt out of certain disclosures or uses, or to appeal a decision we make about your request. To make a request, email inquiries@shyft6.com with your name, the email address or phone number you used with us, your state or country of residence, and what you are asking for. We will verify your identity before acting, will respond as required by the law that applies to you, and will not discriminate against you for making a request. Some information may be exempt from these requests, including information we must keep to comply with law or to defend legal claims, and information we process on behalf of a client, in which case we may refer you to that client.
Children
The Services are intended for adults in a business and employment context. They are not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 16. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.
Visitors outside the U.S.
Shyft6 is based in the United States and the Services are intended for people in the United States. If you use the Services from another country, your information will be transferred to, stored, and processed in the United States and other countries where we or our service providers operate, whose data-protection laws may differ from those where you live.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy at any time. When we do, we will post the revised version here and change the effective date above. Changes take effect when posted unless we state otherwise, and the updated policy applies to information we already hold as well as information collected afterward, to the extent the law permits. If a change materially affects how we use information previously collected from you, we will take reasonable steps to notify you. Please review this page periodically.
