Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Euro Remote Talent ('Euro Remote Talent', 'we', 'us', or 'our') collects, uses, shares, and protects personal information when you visit our website at euroremotetalent.com and use the services we offer through it (together, the 'Website'). Euro Remote Talent provides recruiting and talent-placement services that connect US companies with remote professionals based in Europe. By using the Website, you agree to the collection and use of information as described in this Policy.

1. Information we collect

We collect information in two ways: information you provide directly, and information collected automatically when you use the Website.

Information you provide includes your name, email address, company, and the role details, budget, and hiring needs you share when you contact us or book a call; the professional details, work history, and any CV or profile you provide when you join our talent network; the information you submit when you apply to our partner program; the inputs you enter into tools such as our salary calculator; and the content of any messages you send us.

Information collected automatically includes your device and browser type, IP address, pages viewed, links clicked, referring pages, approximate location, and similar usage data, gathered through cookies and comparable technologies described below.

2. How we use your information

We use the information we collect to:

• provide, operate, and improve the Website and our recruiting services;
• respond to your enquiries, schedule calls, and communicate with you about your request;
• match candidates with client roles and manage the placement process;
• administer our talent network and partner program;
• send you updates, guides, or marketing you have asked for or that relate to a service you use (you can opt out at any time);
• maintain the security of the Website, prevent fraud, and enforce our terms;
• comply with our legal, tax, and accounting obligations.

3. Legal bases for processing

Where the EU or UK GDPR applies, we process personal data on one or more of the following legal bases: your consent; the performance of a contract with you; our legitimate interests in operating and growing our business, balanced against your rights; and compliance with a legal obligation.

4. How we share your information

We do not sell your personal information. We share it only as needed:

• with client companies and candidates, as necessary to make an introduction or placement you are part of;
• with service providers that help us run our business, such as website hosting, email, scheduling, analytics, and CRM tools, under agreements that require them to protect your data;
• with professional advisers, and with authorities or other parties where required by law or to protect our legal rights;
• in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, in which case we will require the recipient to honor this Policy.

5. Cookies and analytics

The Website uses cookies and similar technologies to make it work, remember your preferences, and understand how it is used so we can improve it. You can control cookies through your browser settings; disabling some cookies may affect how the Website functions. We may use analytics providers to collect aggregated usage statistics.

6. Data retention

We keep personal information only for as long as we need it for the purposes described in this Policy, to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. When we no longer need it, we delete or anonymize it.

7. Security

We use reasonable organizational and technical measures to protect personal information against loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, including encrypted connections (HTTPS) and access limited on a need-to-know basis. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. International data transfers

We work with clients in the United States and professionals in Europe, so your information may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your own, including the United States. Where required, we put appropriate safeguards in place for such transfers, such as standard contractual clauses.

9. Your privacy rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

• access the personal information we hold about you and receive a copy;
• have inaccurate or incomplete information corrected;
• request deletion of your information;
• restrict or object to certain processing;
• withdraw your consent where we rely on it;
• request portability of your information.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at julien@euroremotetalent.com. We will respond as required by applicable law. If you are in the EEA or UK, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

10. California residents

If you are a California resident, you may have rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA), including the right to know what personal information we collect and how we use and share it, the right to request deletion, and the right not to be discriminated against for exercising your rights. We do not sell personal information. To make a request, contact us at julien@euroremotetalent.com.

11. Children's privacy

The Website is not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided us with information, contact us and we will delete it.

12. Third-party links

The Website may link to third-party sites and tools we do not control. This Policy does not apply to those sites, and we are not responsible for their privacy practices. Please review their policies before providing information.

13. Changes to this Policy

We may update this Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the 'last updated' date above and post the new version here. Your continued use of the Website after changes are posted means you accept the updated Policy.
