We want you to know that SwanStaffing adheres to privacy legislation that governs what information may be collected, how it is used and how it is protected. This Privacy Statement explains our privacy policies and information handling practices.

Why we collect personal information
We collect information in order to represent you for employment opportunities with our clients, to carry out contests or surveys, to administer our web site, and to provide information about our services.

SwanStaffing consultants/placements
When you are placed with one of our clients, we will collect additional information in order to complete the placement process. In addition, we will survey you to ensure that we are offering our consultants the best possible opportunities and to provide our clients with constructive feedback. We will survey clients to verify and confirm the information we currently have in your file and to ensure our consultants are consistently meeting client expectations.
Please note that all active contract consultants will receive communication from SwanStaffing containing pertinent information related to current placements.
Your information is obtained and used only with your consent
We want to assure you that any personal information you provide to SwanStaffing will remain completely confidential until you request otherwise, unless required by law. We do not sell or provide candidate or client information to third parties. We will always obtain your authorization to contact references and we will always contact you via email or telephone before we submit your profile to a client requirement.
Your consent can be express or implied
Express consent can be verbal or written. You imply consent when we reasonably conclude that you have given consent by some action you have taken, or when you decide not to take action. For example, by providing your contact information, profile or other personal information to a recruitment specialist or through our web site, you are granting your consent to allow SwanStaffing to use your profile information in the matching process, and to contact you regarding any such matches.
You can withdraw your consent after you’ve given it
While we would like your consent to continue to collect and use your information as outlined above, we want you to know that you do have choices.
We respect the confidential information that we receive from others and therefore will not release any personal information provided to us by third parties without their explicit authorization.
