ADDITIONAL INFORMATION FOR RESIDENTS OF CALIFORNIA, VIRGINIA, COLORADO, CONNECTICUT, AND UTAH

California law requires us to provide California residents with certain specific information regarding how we collect, use, and share “personal information” as such term is defined in the California Privacy Rights Act and its implementing regulations (“CPRA”, which amended the California Consumer Privacy Act (known as the “CCPA”)).  Following California’s passage of the CCPA, other states have passed similar data privacy laws, including the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (“VCDPA”), effective January 1, 2023; the Colorado Privacy Act (“CPA”), effective July 1,2023; the Connecticut Data Privacy Act (“CDPA”), effective July 1, 2023; and the Utah Consumer Privacy Act (“UCPA”), effective December 31, 2023.

For clarity and ease of reference, we may refer to CPRA, VCDPA, CPA, CDPA, and UCPA collectively as “State Data Privacy Laws”. In the event that one or more State Data Privacy Laws offers more or enhanced rights, privacy, or protections than the State Data Privacy Law applicable to you, we will endeavor to provide you with those additional and/or enhanced rights, privacy, or protection, though we may not be legally obligated to do so.

Sale of Information

CPRA and other State Data Privacy Laws sets forth certain obligations for businesses that “sell” personal information, as “sell” and “sale” are defined in CPRA and the regulations issued thereunder (together with analogous State Data Privacy Laws and their implementing regulations).  While Staff Scaler does share Personal Information with certain of its service providers and subprocessors to perform the Services and maintain the Platform as described in this Privacy Policy, Staff Scaler does not “sell” personal information as defined under CPRA and these other State Data Privacy Laws (in other words, we do not accept money or other things of value in exchange for your Personal Information).

California “Shine the Light” Disclosure

The California “Shine the Light” law (Cal. Civ. Code §1798.83) gives residents of California the right under certain circumstances to opt out of the sharing of certain categories of personal information (as defined in the “Shine the Light” law) with third parties for their direct marketing purposes.  Staff Scaler does not share your personal information (as defined in the “Shine the Light” law) with third parties for their own direct marketing purposes.

“Sensitive” Personal Information

Staff Scaler may collect, on its own account and/or on behalf of Customers, Personal Information that may be classified as “sensitive” under certain State Data Privacy laws and other privacy laws.   Personal Information that is classified as “sensitive” may be supplied as part of a job application or to facilitate consented to background checks, credential verification and/or other reporting, provided by a third-party to supplement information provided by you, or provided by various service providers, such as benefits providers or insurers and may include one or more of your:

·  social security, driver’s license, state identification card, or passport number.

·  account log-in, financial account, debit card, or credit card number in combination with any required security or access code, password, or credentials allowing access to an account.

·  precise geolocation.

·  racial or ethnic origin, religious or philosophical beliefs, or union membership.

·  contents of mail, email, and text messages (sent through our Platform between you and the business with whom you are applying, for example).

·  Information concerning health, sexual orientation, or sex life (in connection with applying for and receiving health, fertility or other benefits available from an employer, for example).
