North Star Talent respects your privacy and is committed to handling your personal information responsibly and transparently.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect personal information when you visit our website, contact us, use our services, or complete our Hiring Health Check assessment.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use personal information for purposes including:

Responding to inquiries and communicating about requested services.

Responding to assessment-related questions or requests.
Providing recruitment, talent advisory, and related professional services.
Operating, maintaining, troubleshooting, and securing our websites.

Completing the Hiring Health Check does not subscribe you to marketing emails or newsletters. Information submitted through the assessment is not collected for ongoing marketing subscriptions.

3. Hiring Health Check Assessment, Hiring, Sales and Sales Leadership Impact Indexes

When you complete the Hiring Health Check, we collect your submitted contact and company information together with your assessment responses.

We use this information to calculate and deliver your assessment results, provide relevant recommendations, and respond to assessment-related requests.

The assessment uses automated scoring rules to produce an informational evaluation of your organization's hiring practices. It is not intended to make employment decisions about individual job applicants.

Assessment information is transmitted through service providers that help us process submissions and deliver results, including Lovable, Zapier, and Google Sheets.

4. Service Providers and Information Sharing

We use trusted technology providers to operate our website and deliver our services. These may include:

Wix, which hosts and supports our main website.
Lovable and its supporting cloud services, which host and operate the Hiring Health Check.
Zapier, which processes assessment submissions and connects our systems.
Google Workspace and Google Sheets, which may be used to organize and manage assessment information.
Other service providers used for website operations, business communications, scheduling, and security.

We share personal information with service providers only as reasonably necessary for the relevant service or business purpose.

We do not sell personal information.

We may also disclose information where required or permitted by law, or where necessary to protect our rights, systems, or users.

5. Cookies and Website Analytics

Our websites may use cookies and similar technologies for essential website functions, security, performance, and, where enabled, analytics.

Some cookies are provided by our website platforms or integrated third-party services.

You can manage cookies through your browser settings and, where available, through website cookie controls. Disabling certain cookies may affect website functionality.

6. Storage, Security, and International Processing

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or loss.

These measures may include access restrictions, protected credentials, submission validation, and security monitoring.

No method of transmitting or storing information online is completely secure.

Our technology providers may process or store information outside your province or Canada, where it may be subject to the laws of the relevant jurisdiction.

7. How Long We Keep Information

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, meet applicable legal requirements, resolve disputes, or maintain appropriate business records.

Retention periods may differ depending on the type of information and the services involved.

Temporary technical records used for website security and duplicate-submission prevention are retained according to the applicable operational schedules.

When information is no longer required, we take reasonable steps to securely delete or anonymize it, subject to applicable legal and operational requirements.
