Front California Recruiting Privacy Notice

Effective Date: May 13th, 2024

This notice ("Notice") describes the categories of personal information that FrontApp, Inc. ("Company", "we", "us" and "our") collects about California residents who apply or are recruited for a job with us ("candidates"); how we use and disclose that information; and candidates’ California privacy rights.

If you have questions about this Notice, please contact [email protected].

This notice applies to personal information collected about you in your capacity as a job candidate. See the Front Privacy Notice for information about our practices when you use our website or otherwise interact with us offline or online in the same manner as a website visitor or someone is who is not a job candidate.

For purposes of this Notice, "personal information" and "sensitive personal information" have the meanings given in the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (as amended from time to time, the "ССРА").

This Notice does not create or form part of any contract for employment or otherwise.

We may collect and process the following categories of personal information during the application and recruitment process:

• Contact information, such as home address, telephone number, and email address;
• Information from job application materials or recruiters, such as your job application, resume or CV, cover letter, writing samples, references, work history, education transcripts, whether you are subject to prior employer obligations, and information that referrers provide about you;
• Professional qualifications, such as licenses, permits, memberships, and certifications;
• Information from the application process, such as any phone-screens, interviews, evaluations and outcomes of recruiting exercises;
• Immigration information, such as immigration status and other information that would allow us to verify your employment eligibility;
• Biographical information, such as name, gender/gender identity, pronouns, date of birth, professional history, references, language proficiencies, education details, and information you make publicly available through job search or career networking sites;
• Job preferences, such as desired position and compensation, location preferences and willingness to relocate;
• Employment history, such as your prior employers, how long you worked with each of your prior employers, and your prior positions;
• Background check information, such as information necessary to complete background, credit, drug/alcohol and/or other checks when permitted by law, and information received during these checks;
• Accommodation information, such as information needed to understand and assess accommodation requests regarding potential disabilities or other health conditions;
• Medical information if you meet with us in-person, such as your body temperature, health symptoms, vaccination status and other screening information in connection with the Company’s health and safety plans and protocols, including screening required to access Company offices/facilities and other measures designed to prevent the transmission of COVID-19 or other infectious diseases; and
• Other information you provide to us.

Providing personal information to us is voluntary. However, if you do not provide sufficient information, we may be unable to consider your application or, if you are hired, your subsequent promotion, transfer or relocation.

In certain cases we may ask you for additional information for purposes of complying with applicable laws. We may also inquire about criminal and/or credit records. We will do so only where permitted by applicable law.

With the possible exception of "contact information", "job preferences", and “employment history", all of the categories above include, or contain information from which it may be possible to infer, sensitive personal information or characteristics of protected classifications under California or federal law if applicable.

However, we do not use or disclose sensitive personal information in ways subject to California residents’ right to limit use or disclosure of sensitive personal information under the CCPA.

We collect personal information from you when you apply for a job and throughout the job application or recruitment process. We may also collect your personal information from other sources and combine it with the personal information you provide us. For example, we may collect your personal information from:

• Job board websites you may use to apply for a job with us;
