If you do not wish to consent to providing your Biometrics Data, we will offer an alternative solution for identity verification. Checkr does not store or otherwise access your Biometrics Data.

7. California and other state privacy laws

If you reside in California or certain other states (including Virginia), you may have rights under applicable state privacy laws, such as the California Consumer Privacy Act and the California Privacy Rights Act (collectively, “CPRA”) or the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (“VCDPA”). 

Please note that the CPRA and VCDPA do not apply to Personal Data which is processed pursuant to the FCRA, the federal law which protects background check information. When Checkr processes Personal Data about California and Virginia residents for the purposes of performing a background check pursuant to the FCRA, such processing is exempt from the CPRA and VCDPA. In such cases, we process your Personal Data in accordance with the FCRA.

In addition, we often act as a “service provider” or “processor” with regard to Personal Data we receive and process through our Services. In such cases, we conduct our data processing in accordance with the restrictions set forth in the data processing agreements with our Customers, who act as the “business” or “controller” under the CPRA or VCDPA. The privacy practices of our Customers are subject to their privacy policies, which we encourage you to review. Checkr is not responsible for our Customers’ privacy practices or policies. 

California and Virginia residents may learn more about their rights below:

• Right to know: California and Virginia residents have the right to know what categories of Personal Data have been collected about them, and whether such Personal Data has been disclosed or sold for a business purpose in the past 12 months. 
  • For a description of the categories of Personal Data that Checkr has collected in the past 12 month, see the section above entitled, What information does Checkr collect through the Services? Checkr retains this Personal Data in accordance with applicable laws and agreements between Checkr and its Customers and affiliates.
  • For a description of the categories of Personal Data that Checkr has disclosed for a business purpose in the past 12 month, see the section above entitled, What information does Checkr collect through the Services? Checkr does not sell your Personal Data. However, Checkr may share Site Visitors’ cookies data for the purposes of cross-contextual behavioral advertising. When Site Visitors located in California and Virginia visit Checkr’s website, we present a banner which enables Site Visitors to exercise their “Do Not Share” right. Please click on the opt out button if you would like to opt out of such sharing.
  • For a description of the categories of third parties with whom Checkr has disclosed Personal Data for a business purpose in the past 12 month, see the section above entitled, When does Checkr share collected information?
• Access: California and Virginia residents have the right to request access to their Personal Data.
• Deletion: California and Virginia residents have the right to request the deletion of certain Personal Data.
• Right to Non-Discrimination: Checkr enforces a strict non-discrimination policy when you exercise your rights.
• Rights relating to sensitive personal information. Checkr will not process the sensitive personal information of Virginia Consumers, as defined by the VCDPA, without Consumer consent. California residents have the right to limit processing of sensitive personal information under the CPRA. Checkr may process the sensitive personal information of California Consumers as defined under California law, including the following categories: (1) social security number, driver’s license, state identification card, or passport number and (2) account log-in in combination with the credentials allowing access to an account. Checkr uses such sensitive personal information only for the following purposes:
  • To the extent it is necessary to perform the services reasonably expected by the average Consumer who requested them; 
  • To help ensure security and integrity to the extent the use of the Consumer’s personal information is reasonably necessary and proportionate for these purposes; and 
  • Performing services on behalf of the business, including maintaining or servicing accounts, providing customer service, processing or fulfilling orders and transactions, verifying customer information, processing payments, or providing similar services on behalf of the business.

Checkr will help you exercise these rights free of charge, where applicable. Please contact us at support@checkr.com if you would like to submit a request. If you make a request under the CPRA or VCDPA, we may need to take additional steps to verify your identity.  If you designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf, we may require you to provide the authorized agent written permission to do so and to verify your own identity directly with us.

Regardless of where you are located, you may use the tools described above in How can you access, change, or delete information about you? to request access, correction, and deletion of your information.

8. Does this Policy apply to third parties or third-party links?

No. Site and Services may contain links to third-party websites, but this Policy does not apply to information that you may provide to or that may be collected by such third parties. We encourage you to review such third parties’ privacy policies and terms and conditions before engaging with such third parties.

9. What choices do you have about email and text communications from Checkr?

Promotional Emails: Subject to any restrictions under applicable laws, we may send periodic promotional or informational emails to you. You may opt-out of such communications by clicking the unsubscribe link in the email. Please note that it may take up to 10 business days for us to process opt-out requests. If you opt-out of receiving emails about recommendations or other information we think may interest you, we may still send you emails about your account or any services you have requested or received from us.

Opting Out of Checkr Text Messages: The number of text messages you receive may depend upon factors, including how you use our Services and whether you take steps to generate additional text messages from us (such as by sending a HELP request). If you no longer want to receive Checkr text messages, you may reply STOP to our messages at any time. After doing so, we will send you confirmation of your opt-out via text message. If you have revoked consent and want to re-enroll in our text message program, you can re-enroll by emailing us at support@checkr.com.

10. How does Checkr protect your information? 

Checkr maintains industry standard physical, technological, and administrative safeguards to help protect the security and privacy of the information we maintain about you. We may use such safeguards as encryption, multi-factor authentication, and other proactive security measures to help protect your information against unauthorized access and disclosure. However, no security measures are 100% effective. You should take steps to protect against unauthorized access to your information, passwords, accounts, phones, computers, and other devices.

11. GDPR and Other International Considerations

GDPR and UK GDPR

In the EEA and UK, we present Site Visitors with a cookies banner asking for your affirmative consent to non-essential cookies. For more information about how Checkr uses cookies, please review our Cookie Policy.

If you reside in the EEA or UK, you have the right to submit a data subject access request (“DSAR”) under the General Data Protection Regulation or UK General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), including requests to access, correct, delete, download, and object to certain processing of your information. You can exercise many of these rights by visiting the links described above in How can you access, change, or delete information about you? In addition, you may contact us at support@checkr.com if you would like to submit a DSAR.

Data Storage

Checkr uses infrastructure primarily located and operated in the United States. Checkr may also use partners or affiliates located in countries outside the US to store, process, and transmit your information. If you are located in the EEA, UK, or another region with comparable data protection laws, your personal information may be transferred to a jurisdiction that does not have the level of legal protections. 

Personal Information Disclosure: United States or Overseas

When Checkr acts as an Investigative Consumer Reporting Agency under California state law, personal information collected from Consumers in the United States may be transferred outside of the United States as follows:

• To third parties from which we must collect or verify personal information to provide  Services requested by a Customer. For example, if a Customer requests a background check in Canada, personal information may be transferred to the organization that provides such information. 
• To service providers that help provide the Services outside of the United States, where the Customer has requested such Services. For example, if the Customer requests employment verification in Australia, personal information may be transferred to a service provider with expertise in performing such a verification in Australia. 
• To affiliates, service providers, and contractors from time to time to  help provide the Services. 

For more information on how Checkr handles cross-border transfers of personal information, please read the remainder of this section below.

Data Transfer and Standard Contractual Clauses

Checkr may transfer, store, or process your Personal Data in a country outside your jurisdiction, including countries outside the EEA and UK. We take appropriate safeguards with respect to such cross-border data transfers. For example, if we transfer Personal Data from the EEA or UK to another country, such as the United States, we will implement an appropriate data transfer solution such as entering into “standard contractual clauses” approved by the European Commission or competent UK authority (as applicable) with the data importer, or take other measures to provide an adequate level of data protection under EEA and UK law. Checkr may also rely on the active consent of EEA based data subjects. Data from EEA based data subjects is processed with consent, to fulfill our legitimate interests to produce a data subject’s requested background check, and to fulfill our contractual obligations. We may retain data for compliance with our legal obligations under applicable law, including the FCRA.

Additional Information for Canadian Users

This Policy applies to Customers, Consumers and Site Visitors in Canada. However, to the extent that this Policy is inconsistent with any applicable Canadian laws, Checkr will comply with the applicable law for Customers, Consumers and Site Visitors in Canada. For example, Checkr will only send commercial electronic messages to persons located in Canada with explicit, opt-in consent, unless otherwise permitted pursuant to Canadian legislation that is applicable to such activities.

Consumers who are located in Canada should also understand that the nature of the Services will involve Checkr obtaining potentially sensitive personal information about them, including consumer reports, criminal records, driving records, as well as education and employment records, from third parties such as consumer reporting agencies, police services, and government agencies (e.g., provincial transportation ministries).

Checkr will also share Consumers’ personal information with a third party service provider in Canada, for the purpose of completing or facilitating the background checks described in this Policy.

In addition, Personal Data that is collected in the course of providing the Services will be transferred outside Canada. Therefore, such information may be accessible to law enforcement and national security authorities in the jurisdiction(s) where it is stored or processed.

Canadian Customers and Consumers will be notified of any material changes to this Policy, where such a change would result in use or disclosure of their personal information by Checkr in a manner not contemplated by this Policy or reasonably expected by the individual.

Privacy Shield

We comply with the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework and Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework as set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce regarding the collection, use, and retention of Personal Data transferred from the EEA and Switzerland to the United States. Checkr has certified to the Department of Commerce that it adheres to the Privacy Shield Principles. If there is any conflict between the terms in this Privacy Policy and the Privacy Shield Principles, the Privacy Shield Principles shall govern. To learn more about the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework and the Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework as well as Checkr’s certification on the Privacy Shield List, please visit https://www.privacyshield.gov.

At Customers’ request, Checkr may collect from third-party sources Personal Data about EEA and Swiss residents who are applicants for positions with Customers, who are otherwise seeking a business relationship with Customers or who are the Customers’ employees, to compile a background report on the EEA or Swiss resident.  The information collected may include, at the Customer’s election and to the extent permitted by applicable law, an EEA or Swiss resident’s criminal history, employment history, work eligibility, educational background, civil litigation history, residence history, and/or driving history.  Checkr receives this Personal Data for investigative, credential verification, and employment screening purposes. Customers (employers or their agents) may use this Personal Data for their own employment-related decisions, such as whether to hire, retain, promote, or re-assign an employee.  When Checkr collects and uses Personal Data of EEA and Swiss residents, it does so only for the purpose of providing services in accordance with its Customer’s instructions.

Checkr may disclose the Personal Data of EEA and Swiss residents to the Customer who requested the collection of that Personal Data for employment screening and/or business-related purposes.  Checkr may disclose Personal Data of EEA and Swiss residents, subject to written agreement, to authorized third-party service providers who assist Checkr in providing services to Customers. These third-party service providers may, for example, perform reference and credential verifications or collect information from public or private records sources in connection with the preparation of a background report.  Upon notice, Checkr will act promptly to stop and remediate unauthorized processing of Personal Data by a recipient. 

Checkr is accountable for Personal Data that it receives in the United States under the Privacy Shield and subsequently transfers to a third party as described in the Privacy Shield Principles.  In particular, Checkr remains liable under the Privacy Shield Principles if third-party service providers engaged by Checkr to process Personal Data on its behalf do so in a manner inconsistent with the Privacy Shield Principles, unless Checkr is not responsible for the event giving rise to the damages.

In certain situations, Checkr may be required to disclose Personal Data in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.

Checkr relies on Customers to provide EEA and Swiss residents with respect to whom the Customer requests a background report with clear, conspicuous, and readily available mechanisms to opt out from: (a) the disclosure of their Personal Data to a non-agent third party; and (b) the use of their Personal Data for purpose(s) that are materially different from the purpose(s) for which the Personal Data was originally collected or subsequently authorized by the individual.  Checkr will follow Customers’ instructions regarding the choices made by individuals.

Checkr does not review data processing notices provided by Customers to EEA and Swiss residents, or authorizations to the Customer from EEA and Swiss residents who are the subject of a background check requested by a Customer to determine whether the notices or authorizations are in compliance with, or conflict with, applicable law or any policy or notice published by the Customer.  Customers are responsible for providing all legally required notices and for obtaining all legally required authorizations and for ensuring that the notices and authorizations are consistent with the Customers’ policies and comply with applicable laws.  

If, and to the extent, Checkr collects any sensitive Personal Data as expressly delineated by Privacy Shield Principles, Checkr obtains (directly or through Customers) affirmative express consent, i.e., opt-in consent, from the relevant EEA or Swiss resident, subject to certain exceptions permitted by the Privacy Shield Principles, before such information is to be (i) disclosed to a third party, or (ii) used for a purpose other than those for which the sensitive Personal Data was originally collected or subsequently authorized by the EEA or Swiss resident.

Pursuant to the Privacy Shield Frameworks, EEA and Swiss individuals have the right to obtain our confirmation of whether Checkr maintains personal information relating to you in the United States. Upon request, we will provide you with access to the personal information that we hold about you. You may also correct, amend, or delete the personal information we hold about you. An individual who seeks access, or who seeks to correct, amend, or delete inaccurate data transferred to the United States under Privacy Shield, should direct their query to support@checkr.com. If requested to remove data, we will respond within a reasonable timeframe.

Checkr is responsible for the processing of Personal Data we receive and subsequent transfers to a third party acting as an agent on our behalf, under the Privacy Shield Frameworks. Checkr complies with the Privacy Shield Principles for all onward transfers of personal data from the EEA and Switzerland, including the onward transfer liability provisions.

With respect to Personal Data received or transferred pursuant to the Privacy Shield Framework, Checkr is subject to the regulatory enforcement powers of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission.

In compliance with the Privacy Shield Principles, Checkr commits to resolve complaints about our collection or use of your personal information. EEA and Swiss individuals with inquiries or complaints regarding our Privacy Shield policy should first contact us at: support@checkr.com.

Checkr has further committed to refer unresolved Privacy Shield complaints to BBB EU PRIVACY SHIELD, an alternative dispute resolution provider located in the United States. If you do not receive timely acknowledgment of your complaint from us, or if we have not addressed your complaint to your satisfaction, please visit https://bbbprograms.org/privacy-shield-complaints/ for more information or to file a complaint. This service of BBB EU PRIVACY SHIELD are provided at no cost to you.  

If your Privacy Shield complaint cannot be resolved through the above channels, under certain conditions, you may invoke binding arbitration for some residual claims not resolved by other redress mechanisms. See Privacy Shield Annex 1 at https://www.privacyshield.gov/article?id=ANNEX-I-introduction.
