How to read this page
A public-site privacy baseline for a workforce company with wider operational services.
This privacy notice is written for the public site and can be supplemented later by more specific worker, client, payroll, or service-level notices where needed.
This is a strong public-site privacy baseline for a modern workforce company. It is intentionally broad enough to cover client, worker, candidate, and partnership interactions while leaving room for more specific service-level notices later.
Privacy section
Who this notice covers
Depending on the interaction, C3 may provide additional or more specific privacy notices. For example, worker, candidate, client-service, payroll, onboarding, or e-sign processes may involve supplemental notices that apply alongside this one.
- Visitors to the public site and related landing pages
- Client, project, and business contacts who submit service or intake enquiries
- Workers, candidates, and applicants who submit interest, onboarding, or support requests
- Partner, vendor, and other commercial contacts who interact with C3
Privacy section
What information C3 may collect
The categories collected depend on the relationship and the purpose of the interaction. Not every category applies to every person.
- Identity and contact details such as name, email address, phone number, employer, title, and location
- Business and enquiry information such as organization details, project context, workforce needs, service requirements, and partnership interests
- Candidate and worker information such as role interests, work history, availability, qualifications, documents, references, right-to-work information, and onboarding-related details where relevant
- Technical information such as IP address, browser type, device data, pages viewed, timestamps, and similar website-usage information
- Communications and records such as form submissions, emails, notes, attachments, and service-related follow-up history
- Sensitive or higher-risk information only where reasonably necessary, legally permitted, and supported by an appropriate basis, such as compliance, worker support, payroll, accommodations, or legal obligations
Privacy section
How C3 may use personal information
C3 uses personal information for practical workforce and business purposes, not just website administration. The exact purpose depends on the relationship with you.
- To respond to questions, route enquiries, and provide requested information
- To assess workforce, staffing, partnership, or worker-intake opportunities
- To support recruitment, matching, onboarding, mobilization, worker support, payroll-related administration, finance operations, and service delivery where relevant
- To manage business relationships, contracts, documentation, archive records, and internal governance
- To operate, secure, analyze, and improve the site, public forms, and related services
- To comply with legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, audit, employment, health and safety, anti-fraud, and recordkeeping obligations
Privacy section
Legal bases for processing
The lawful basis depends on the type of interaction, the jurisdiction involved, and the role C3 is playing in that interaction.
- Consent, where consent is the appropriate legal basis
- Steps requested before entering into a contract, or performance of a contract
- Compliance with legal or regulatory obligations
- Legitimate interests, such as operating the business, maintaining site security, responding to enquiries, supporting service delivery, improving processes, and protecting rights and claims
- Vital interests where this is required by law and genuinely relevant
Privacy section
How information may be shared
C3 does not share personal information casually. Sharing should stay tied to a real business, compliance, or service-delivery purpose and remain subject to confidentiality and legal requirements.
- Affiliates, group entities, and authorized personnel who need the information for legitimate business purposes
- Clients, partners, or hiring-side stakeholders where that sharing is necessary for workforce, recruitment, onboarding, placement, or service delivery purposes
- Service providers such as hosting, IT, cloud, document, communications, identity, finance, payroll, payment, professional-advisory, or operational support providers acting under appropriate controls
- Banks, payment providers, insurers, regulators, auditors, law enforcement, courts, or other authorities where required or permitted by law
- A successor organization if part of the business, assets, or operations are reorganized, sold, or transferred
Privacy section
International transfers
This matters because C3’s service model is regional and cross-border by nature.
- C3 may operate across more than one country and may use systems, service providers, or support teams located in other jurisdictions.
- Where personal information is transferred internationally, C3 aims to use appropriate safeguards required by applicable law, such as contractual protections, internal controls, or other lawful transfer mechanisms.
- Different countries may have different privacy laws. C3 aims to handle transfers in a way that preserves an appropriate level of protection for the information involved.
Privacy section
Retention
Retention is purpose-based and jurisdiction-sensitive rather than one flat period for everything.
- C3 keeps personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, plus any longer period required for legal, tax, payroll, accounting, audit, dispute, safety, or recordkeeping reasons.
- Different categories have different retention periods. For example, contact and marketing records, candidate records, worker files, payroll records, contracts, and compliance files may be retained for different durations depending on applicable law and the relationship involved.
- Where information is no longer needed, C3 aims to delete, de-identify, aggregate, or otherwise handle it appropriately.
Privacy section
Security and cookies
Security and privacy are operational commitments, not just policy statements.
- C3 uses administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.
- Access should be limited to people who need the information for legitimate business, operational, or compliance reasons.
- No internet-based system can be guaranteed to be completely secure, but C3 aims to maintain safeguards appropriate to the nature of the information and the risk involved.
- The site may use cookies or similar technologies for security, functionality, traffic analysis, and experience improvement. Browser settings may allow you to control some of these technologies.
Privacy section
Your rights and choices
Privacy rights differ by jurisdiction, but C3 should still present them clearly and respectfully.
- Depending on applicable law, you may have rights such as access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, portability, and withdrawal of consent where consent is the basis for processing.
- You may also have the right to complain to a relevant privacy or data-protection authority.
- Some rights are limited by law and may not apply in every situation, particularly where C3 must retain information for payroll, tax, legal, audit, safety, fraud-prevention, or contractual reasons.
Privacy section
Contact and updates
This public notice is intended to be a strong baseline. Before launch, C3 should confirm registered-entity details, operational addresses, and any dedicated privacy-contact process it wants to publish.
- Privacy and data-protection questions may be sent to `legal@c3hr.global`.
- C3 may update this notice from time to time to reflect changes in the business, services, systems, or legal requirements.
- If the changes are material, C3 should update the posted notice date and, where appropriate, provide additional notice.
