Information For Residents

California Residents: Do not sell my Personal Information
California Consumer Protection Act

California Consumer Protection Act​​The California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) gives California residents the right to opt out of the “sale” of their personal information, as that term is defined in the CCPA. As defined, the term may include some of our sharing of personal information about potential candidates with a prospective employer.

If you are a California resident, you may opt out of such sharing with prospective employers by emailing privacy@cobaltparsons.com and clearly instructing us that is your wish. This will opt you out of the “sale” of your personal information within the meaning of the CCPA. We may contact you to verify your identity if we are uncertain that data we hold pertains to you.

This could result in fewer career opportunities for you, but it will not prevent us from disclosing your details to particular employers that you tell us you are interested in pursuing.

You must provide at least one email address below since we have an email address on file for most individuals in our database. This also allows us to provide you confirmation that your request has been processed or to contact you if we have questions about your request. Since we sometimes have multiple, separate records for a single individual, we encourage you to also provide an additional email address, as well as your name and the name of your current or prior employer. This will maximize our ability to fully honor your request.
