Harborside and its operating groups, subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively the “Company” or “we”) are committed to complying with the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (the “CCPA”). The CCPA requires companies to inform consumers about the personal information they collect and share, and gives them a right to access their information, to request deletion of their information, and to opt-out of having their information sold.
The collection of a job applicant’s personal information is currently outside of the scope of the CCPA requirements, except that applicants have the right to know, at or before the point of collection, the categories of personal information to be collected and the purposes for which the categories of personal information will be used.
This Privacy Notice applies only to job applicants who are residents of the State of California
