Privacy Policy
How we collect, use, and protect your personal data
Who we are
Staffyn is a recruitment agency based in Bangalore, Karnataka, India. We connect startups with pre-screened talent across IT, Finance, Sales, and other functions. Our contact email is hr@staffyn.in.
What we collect
When you interact with our website or services, we may collect:
- Name, email address, and phone number
- Resume and employment history (for candidates)
- Company name and hiring requirements (for companies)
- Any other information you voluntarily provide through our forms
We collect only what is necessary to provide our recruitment services. We do not collect sensitive personal data such as financial information, health data, or government IDs unless explicitly required and consented to.
How we use it
We use your data solely for recruitment purposes — matching candidates with relevant job opportunities and connecting companies with suitable talent. Specifically:
- To evaluate your profile against open roles in our network
- To contact you about relevant opportunities or hiring requirements
- To share your profile with prospective employers (candidates only, with prior consent)
- To improve our matching process and service quality
We do not use your data for marketing unrelated to recruitment, and we do not sell your data to third parties under any circumstances.
Who we share it with
We share candidate profiles only with companies that have active, relevant job openings — and only after informing the candidate about the specific opportunity and obtaining their explicit consent. We do not share data with data brokers, advertisers, or any third party outside the recruitment process.
Data retention
Your data is retained for up to 2 years from the date of collection, or until you request deletion — whichever comes first. After this period, all personal data is permanently deleted from our systems.
Your rights
Under the DPDP Act, 2023, you have the following rights:
- Right to access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
- Right to correction: Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data
- Right to erasure: Request deletion of your personal data at any time
- Right to withdraw consent: Withdraw consent at any time; data deleted within 30 days
To exercise any of these rights, email hr@staffyn.in. We respond within 72 hours.
Cookies
This site does not use tracking or advertising cookies. We may use essential session cookies for form functionality only. No third-party analytics or tracking scripts are loaded on this site.
Security
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data from unauthorised access, disclosure, or loss. Access to candidate data is restricted to Staffyn team members who need it to perform their recruitment duties.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or applicable law. The "last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of our services after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
