We will only submit a candidate’s details to a client after discussing the role with that candidate. We do not sell personal information, and we do not use automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects.

SMS messaging

If you provide your mobile number and opt in, Stratum Partners may send you text messages to arrange meetings, calls and interviews. Messages will not be used for advertising jobs. Providing a phone number is optional and is not a condition of using our services.

• Message frequency varies.

• Message and data rates may apply.

• Reply HELP for help and STOP to cancel at any time. After you reply STOP, you will receive one confirmation message and no further texts unless you opt in again.

How we handle SMS data:

• We will not share SMS opt-in data with third parties for purposes unrelated to delivering the messaging service.

• We may share personal data (including SMS opt-in or consent status) with service providers involved in delivering messaging services, such as platform providers, mobile network operators,and vendors.

• Text messaging originator opt-in data and consent will not be shared with any third parties.

• No mobile opt-in data will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes.

See our Terms and Conditions for the full SMS terms.

Sharing your information

We share personal data only where needed to deliver our services:

• Clients — candidate details are shared with prospective employers only after the candidate has agreed to be put forward for a role.

• Service providers — CRM and recruitment software, email, telephony and SMS platforms, cloud hosting, and employer-of-record or payroll partners, all under contract and acting on our instructions.

• Professional advisers and authorities — lawyers, accountants, auditors, and regulators or law enforcement where legally required.

• Business transfers — a buyer or successor if Stratum's business is sold or restructured, subject to this policy.

International transfers

We are based in the UK and our clients and candidates are mainly in the United States, so personal data is transferred between the UK and the US. Where required, we rely on the UK–US Data Bridge, the UK International Data Transfer Agreement or Addendum, or another lawful safeguard.

How long we keep it

We keep candidate records for up to 3 years after our last meaningful contact, and client records for as long as the business relationship continues plus 6 years for legal and accounting purposes. SMS consent records are kept for as long as needed to show that consent was given. Data is then deleted or anonymized.

Security

We use access controls, encrypted systems and reputable service providers to protect personal data. No transmission over the internet is fully secure, but we take reasonable steps to prevent unauthorized access, loss or misuse.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

• access the personal data we hold about you;

• correct inaccurate data;

• request deletion;

• object to or restrict processing;

• request a portable copy of your data;

• withdraw consent at any time, including by replying STOP to our texts.

US residents may have additional rights under state privacy laws. We do not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. To exercise any right, email info@stratumpartners.us. We will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights. UK residents may also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk).
