Applicant privacy

Your information, handled with care.

Last updated July 23, 2026

Guardian Dental Billing uses the information you submit only to manage recruitment, evaluate your application, communicate with you, and meet legal or security obligations.

Information we collect

We collect contact and location details, availability and compensation expectations, education and employment history, professional links, resume files, role-specific answers, interview scheduling information, declarations, and recruitment communications. We do not request passwords, bank credentials, national identity documents, medical history, or unrelated sensitive information in the initial application.

How we use it

Authorized recruiting team members use applicant data to assess job-related qualifications, communicate next steps, schedule interviews, prevent duplicate or abusive submissions, and maintain an auditable hiring process. Optional accommodation information is stored separately and shown only to the owner-level HR administrator in this system.

Automated screening

Guardian may use transparent, job-related scoring only when a role has approved criteria configured. The specification-based role modules currently default to human review without automated scoring. Sensitive or protected information and optional social profiles are not used to calculate a score, and applicants are not shown internal scores.

Service providers and international processing

The recruitment system uses carefully configured infrastructure and service providers for hosting, database and private file storage, spam protection, and authorized email/calendar workflows. Depending on provider infrastructure and applicant location, information may be processed in another country with appropriate access controls and contractual safeguards.

Storage, access, and security

Resumes are stored in private file storage and are not exposed through public or predictable links. Dashboard access requires an authorized account and assigned permissions. Resume files are never attached to routine internal notification emails.

Retention

Unless a legal hold applies or a different approved period is configured, applicant records and private resume files are removed 12 months after submission. A separate talent-pool choice does not remove your right to request earlier deletion.

Your choices

You may withdraw from a role or ask us to provide access to, correct, or delete your information. Some minimal records may be retained where required by law, security, or dispute resolution.
