When you browse our website, we also automatically receive information concerning your visit. For example, our website technologies may receive the URL you visit, page title, referring page, timestamp, IP address, browser, device type, operating system, language, and an identifier stored in your browser that can recognize the same browser or device across visits.
We may use personal information to:
We may also use information for other purposes that are compatible with the purpose for which the information was collected, as permitted by law. Where applicable law requires additional notice or consent before using personal information for a materially different purpose, we will provide that notice or obtain that consent.
We and our service providers and third-party partners may use cookies, pixels, tags, scripts, analytics tools, session-replay technologies, advertising technologies, and similar technologies to operate and improve our websites, remember preferences, analyze website traffic and visitor interactions, measure marketing and advertising, support lead generation and business development, and personalize or improve our services.
These technologies may collect information such as IP address, browser or device identifiers, browser type, operating system, device type, language, approximate location, referring URLs, pages viewed, links clicked, scrolling activity, searches, downloads, form interactions, and interactions with advertisements or electronic communications.
Certain technologies may record or reconstruct how users interact with portions of our websites, including mouse movements, clicks, scrolling activity, and interactions with website elements. In some circumstances, these technologies may associate website activity with an identifiable individual, existing customer, prospect, business contact, or account.
You may manage certain cookies and tracking technologies through the privacy preference controls available on our website. Where required by applicable law, you may also opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information or targeted advertising through our Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information link. We also process legally recognized universal opt-out preference signals where required by applicable law.
We may disclose personal information to the following categories of recipients:
Recipient | Purposes |
|---|---|
Service Providers and Vendors | Website hosting, IT support, cloud services, cybersecurity, analytics, communications, applicant tracking, recruiting support, screening, identity verification, payroll, benefits, work authorization, and other business operations. |
Clients and Prospective Clients | Staffing, recruiting, placement, candidate submission, client assignment administration, workforce services, and related business purposes. |
AtWork Franchisees and Local Offices | Staffing, recruiting, employment opportunities, client services, customer relationship management, lead generation, business development, and related operations. |

Business Transaction Parties | Evaluation or completion of a merger, acquisition, financing, restructuring, bankruptcy, sale, or transfer of some or all of our business or assets. |
Advertising, Analytics, or Marketing Partners | Website analytics, audience measurement, marketing attribution, advertising, lead generation, business development, or similar activities. |
We do not sell personal information for money. However, some state privacy laws define “sale,” “sharing,” or “targeted advertising” more broadly than an exchange of information for money. As a result, our use of certain advertising, analytics, audience measurement, lead-generation, or similar technologies may constitute a sale, sharing, or processing for targeted advertising under applicable law.
Where required, we provide the ability to opt out of those activities as described in this Privacy Policy.
We do not disclose resumes, job applications, or the contents of information submitted by applicants or candidates to advertising or analytics partners for their own advertising purposes. Applicant and candidate information may be disclosed to clients, prospective clients, franchisees, service providers, or others as necessary to provide staffing, recruiting, placement, employment, and workforce services.
If you opt in to receive text messages from AtWork, we may use your mobile telephone number to communicate with you regarding applications, staffing opportunities, assignments, services, or other communications for which you have consented.
Message and data rates may apply and message frequency may vary.
You may opt out of text messages at any time by responding STOP or another supported opt-out keyword. You may request assistance by responding HELP.
We do not share mobile telephone numbers or SMS opt-in consent information with third parties or affiliates for their own marketing or promotional purposes. We may disclose information to service providers as necessary to deliver or support text-message services.
Additional information is available in our Text Messaging Terms of Use link.
We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed, including providing staffing and recruiting services, administering employment and assignments, maintaining business records, complying with legal and regulatory obligations, resolving disputes, preventing fraud, and protecting our rights.
Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information, our relationship with you, the purpose for which the information was collected, applicable legal and regulatory requirements, contractual obligations, operational needs, recordkeeping requirements, and applicable limitation periods. When personal information is no longer reasonably needed, we may delete, de-identify, anonymize, or otherwise dispose of it in accordance with applicable law.
Our website and services are intended for individuals who are at least 18 years old. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 18 through our website. If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under 18 without appropriate authorization, we will take steps to delete the information as required by law.
You may have choices regarding how we use certain personal information.
Providing Information: You may choose not to provide certain information. However, if information is required for recruiting, placement, onboarding, payroll, employment, compliance, or service-related purposes, we may be unable to proceed with certain opportunities or services.

We may still send non-promotional communications related to applications, assignments, employment, payroll, compliance, security, or ongoing services you have requested.
Cookies and Advertising Choices: You may manage cookies and tracking technologies through the cookie and privacy preference controls available on our website. Where applicable law provides a right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information or targeted advertising, you may exercise that right through our Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information link.
