4. Cookies and Similar Technologies

The Site may use cookies, tags, pixels, local storage, and similar technologies to provide Site functionality, remember preferences, understand Site usage, measure performance, and support other permitted business purposes.

We distinguish between technologies that are necessary for the operation and security of the Site and non-essential technologies used for purposes such as analytics, advertising, or certain interactive functionality.

Non-essential analytics, advertising, and applicable third-party technologies are managed through the Site's consent management system and will not load until you have provided the appropriate consent.

You can make your choices through the cookie consent controls presented on the Site.

You may subsequently review or change your consent preferences through the Site's privacy or cookie controls.

Declining certain categories of cookies or technologies may affect the availability or operation of some Site features, including the chatbot.

5. Google Tag Manager, Analytics, and Consent Mode

K2 Staffing may use Google Tag Manager to manage certain technologies and tags operating on the Site.

We may also use Google Analytics or related Google technologies to understand how visitors interact with the Site, evaluate Site performance, and improve our services.

The Site is configured to use Google Consent Mode v2 using a Basic Consent Mode approach for applicable Google technologies.

Under this configuration, Google analytics and advertising tags categorized as non-essential are blocked until you provide the applicable consent.

When you make a choice through the Site's consent management platform, your consent preference is communicated to the applicable technologies so that tags and services are enabled or restricted according to your choice.

You may change your consent preferences through the Site's consent controls.

6. Chatbot and Interactive Services

K2 Staffing provides a chatbot or virtual assistant through the Site to help visitors obtain information, navigate our services, communicate with K2 Staffing, and engage with employment or staffing-related opportunities.

The chatbot uses third-party technology, including infrastructure provided through Supabase.

Information you voluntarily submit through the chatbot may include your name, contact information, questions, communications, employment-related information, and other information you choose to provide.

Chat conversations are stored through Supabase for up to 30 days. Following the applicable retention period, chat conversations are deleted in accordance with the chatbot's configured retention process.

Chat information may be used to:

• Provide and operate the chatbot
• Respond to your questions and requests
• Provide information regarding K2 Staffing and its services
• Assist with employment or staffing-related inquiries
• Troubleshoot and maintain the service
• Maintain the security and integrity of the chatbot functionality

The third-party components required to operate the chatbot are treated as non-essential technologies and will not load until you provide the appropriate consent through the Site's consent controls.

If you do not provide the applicable consent, the chatbot will not load and may not be available to you.

Please do not submit Social Security numbers, financial account credentials, passwords, medical information, or other highly sensitive information through the chatbot.

If sensitive information is required as part of a staffing, recruitment, employment, onboarding, credentialing, or compliance process, K2 Staffing will direct you to the appropriate process or secure system.

7. How We Disclose Personal Information

K2 Staffing may disclose personal information when reasonably necessary to provide requested services, operate our business, comply with legal requirements, with your direction or consent, or as otherwise permitted by law.

Depending on the services involved, personal information may be disclosed to categories of recipients including:

• Clients and prospective employers in connection with staffing and recruitment services
• Website hosting and infrastructure providers
• Applicant tracking, recruitment, and staffing technology providers
• Analytics and website performance providers
• Consent management providers
• Communications and chatbot technology providers, including infrastructure supporting the chatbot
• Payment processors, where applicable
• Security, fraud prevention, and information technology providers
• Professional advisers, including legal, accounting, and compliance professionals
• Government authorities, regulators, courts, or law enforcement where required or permitted by law
• Other service providers processing information on our behalf

We expect service providers handling personal information on our behalf to process that information for appropriate purposes and subject to applicable contractual and legal requirements.

8. Third-Party Websites and Services

The Site may contain links to websites, services, job boards, social networks, or other resources operated by third parties.

K2 Staffing does not control the privacy or security practices of independently operated third-party websites.

When you leave our Site or interact directly with a third-party service, that provider's privacy policy and terms may apply.

We encourage you to review the privacy practices of third-party services before providing personal information directly to them.

9. Sale and Sharing of Personal Information

K2 Staffing does not sell personal information in exchange for money.

Certain online advertising, analytics, or tracking activities may potentially constitute "selling" or "sharing" personal information under applicable state privacy laws even when no monetary payment is exchanged.

K2 Staffing manages non-essential tracking and applicable third-party technologies through its consent management controls.

Where required by applicable law, K2 Staffing provides mechanisms allowing individuals to exercise applicable rights regarding the sale or sharing of personal information.

If our practices materially change, we will update this Privacy Policy and provide any notices or privacy controls required by applicable law.

10. Data Retention

K2 Staffing retains personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected and processed, taking into account our staffing and recruitment operations and applicable legal, regulatory, contractual, accounting, reporting, security, and recordkeeping requirements.

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information, our relationship with you, applicable employment and staffing requirements, and legal obligations.

Chatbot conversations are stored through Supabase for up to 30 days and are then deleted in accordance with the chatbot's configured retention process.

Other personal information may be retained for longer periods where reasonably necessary for staffing, recruitment, employment, business, legal, compliance, security, or recordkeeping purposes.

When personal information is no longer reasonably required, we may delete, anonymize, aggregate, or otherwise dispose of it in accordance with our policies and applicable law.

11. Data Security

K2 Staffing maintains reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, acquisition, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.

Information transmitted through the Site is protected using appropriate encrypted communications where applicable.

We also seek to limit access to personal information to individuals, systems, and service providers that reasonably require access for legitimate purposes.

No method of transmitting information over the Internet or storing information electronically can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Accordingly, while we take reasonable measures designed to protect personal information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
