Privacy Policy

Our Commitment To Privacy

To better protect your privacy, we provide this notice explaining Scherer Talent’s online information practices and the choices you can make about the way your information is collected and used. To make this notice easy to find, it is available on our homepage and wherever personally identifiable information may be requested. This notice applies to all information collected or submitted on the Scherer Talent website and through any applications or integrations we operate, including those that connect with third-party platforms such as LinkedIn.

The Information We Collect

When you browse our website, your IP address (the internet address of your computer) is recorded so that we may know how you are using our website. Your browser may also automatically provide us with information regarding your computer and operating system. This information is used by Scherer Talent to monitor and improve our website and is not linked back to you as an individual user.

On some pages, you can inquire about our recruiting services, submit your resume, and register to receive materials. The types of personal information collected on these pages include your name, email address, phone number, resume, work history, skills, and job preferences.

In order to tailor our subsequent communications to you and continuously improve our services, we may also ask you to voluntarily provide us with information regarding your professional interests, experience, and contact preferences.

Third-Party Integrations and LinkedIn

Scherer Talent uses LinkedIn’s API to publish professional content such as blog posts, hiring insights, and market analysis to our LinkedIn company page and personal profiles. In connection with this integration:

  • We access only the data necessary to authenticate and publish content on our own behalf. This includes basic profile information and authorization tokens provided through LinkedIn’s OAuth consent process.
  • We do not access your private LinkedIn messages, your connections list, your browsing activity, or any data from your LinkedIn profile beyond what is publicly visible or explicitly authorized.
  • We do not sell, rent, lease, or distribute any LinkedIn data to third parties.
  • We do not use LinkedIn data to create independent databases of LinkedIn member information.
  • Authorization tokens are stored securely and are never shared with third parties.

You may revoke our application’s access at any time through your LinkedIn account settings under “Permitted Services.”

The Way We Use Information

Scherer Talent uses the information we collect to better understand your needs and provide you with better service. Specifically, we use your information to help you complete a transaction, to communicate back to you, to update you on services and opportunities, to match candidates with relevant job openings, and to personalize our website and content for you.

From time to time, we may also use your information to contact you for market research or to provide you with information about Scherer Talent services that we think would be of particular interest to you. At a minimum, we will always give you the opportunity to opt out of receiving such direct marketing or market research communications. You may exercise this right to opt out at any time.

We never sell your personal information to third parties. We never use or share the personal information you provide to us online in ways unrelated to the ones described above without also providing you an opportunity to opt out or otherwise prohibit such unrelated uses.

Data Retention

We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy. Candidate information is retained for the duration of our recruiting relationship and for a reasonable period afterward to facilitate future opportunities, unless you request earlier deletion. LinkedIn API tokens are retained only as long as our integration is active. Website analytics data is retained in aggregate form and does not personally identify you.

How You Can Correct Your Information

At any time, you may obtain a summary of your personal information on record with Scherer Talent. You may also request that we dispose of any or all personal information about you, except for personal information we need to complete transactions or to maintain proper records of previous transactions. You can help us maintain the accuracy of your information by notifying us of any change to your personal information.

We will respond to any access, correction, or deletion request within 30 days.

Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include secure storage of credentials and authentication tokens, use of encrypted connections, and limited access to personal information on a need-to-know basis. While we use these precautions to safeguard your information, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Children’s Privacy

Our services are not directed to individuals under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we become aware that we have collected information from a child under 16, we will take steps to delete it promptly.

Our website and social media posts may contain links to third-party websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these websites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party sites you visit.
