We collect information you provide directly to us, including your name, email address, phone number, resume or work history, Commercial Driver's License (CDL) information, and any other information you submit through our job application forms, contact forms, or account registration. This personal information is collected only when you voluntarily provide it to us.

We automatically collect certain usage data when you access our website, including your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, referring URLs, pages visited, time spent on pages, click patterns, and device identifiers. This information helps us understand how visitors use our site and improve the user experience.

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies (such as web beacons and pixels) to collect information about your browsing activity. Cookies are small data files stored on your device that help us recognize your browser, remember your preferences, and provide functionality such as keeping you logged in. You can control cookie settings through your browser preferences.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to operate, maintain, and improve our trucking job board services. This includes matching you with relevant trucking job opportunities based on your qualifications, CDL class, endorsements, experience level, and geographic preferences. Your profile information helps us provide personalized job recommendations.

We use your contact information to communicate with you about job opportunities, application status updates, service announcements, and responses to your inquiries. We may also send you career resources, industry news, salary guides, and other educational content related to the trucking industry that we believe may be valuable to your career.

We use aggregated and anonymized usage data to analyze trends, track the effectiveness of our services, improve our website functionality, develop new features, and ensure the security and integrity of our platform. This data cannot be used to identify any individual user.

3. Information Sharing

We may share your information with trucking companies and employers when you apply for a job listing through our platform. By submitting an application, you consent to your application information being transmitted to the hiring company. We may also share information with trusted service providers who assist us in operating our website, conducting our business, or serving our users, provided those parties agree to keep this information confidential.

We may disclose your information when required by law, such as in response to a subpoena, court order, or other legal process, or when we believe disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, protect your safety or the safety of others, investigate fraud, or respond to a government request.

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes. We do not share your personal data with advertisers or ad networks for targeted advertising purposes. Your information is used solely to provide and improve our job board services.

We use analytics cookies (such as Google Analytics) to collect anonymous information about how visitors use our website. These cookies help us understand which pages are most popular, how visitors navigate between pages, and whether users encounter any errors.

5. Data Retention

We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you services. If you create a profile or submit applications through our platform, we retain that information to facilitate ongoing job matching and to maintain your application history. You may request deletion of your data at any time by contacting us.

Usage data and analytics information is retained in aggregated, anonymized form for up to 26 months for the purpose of trend analysis and service improvement. Server logs containing IP addresses and access records are retained for a maximum of 90 days for security and troubleshooting purposes before being automatically purged.

When you request deletion of your account or personal information, we will remove your data from our active systems within 30 days. Some information may be retained in our backup systems for up to 90 additional days before complete deletion. We may also retain certain information as required by law or for legitimate business purposes such as fraud prevention and legal compliance.

6. Your Rights Under CCPA

If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) provides you with specific rights regarding your personal information. You have the right to know what personal information we have collected about you, the categories of sources from which the information was collected, the business purpose for collecting the information, and the categories of third parties with whom we share it.

You have the right to request deletion of your personal information, subject to certain exceptions provided by law. You also have the right to opt out of the sale of your personal information. As stated above, we do not sell personal information, but you may still submit an opt-out request for your records.

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights. We will not deny you services, charge you different prices, or provide a different level of quality because you exercised your privacy rights. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at info@truckingjobsinusa.com and we will respond within 45 days.

7. Your Rights Under GDPR

If you are a resident of the European Economic Area (EEA), the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) grants you certain rights regarding your personal data. You have the right of access to obtain a copy of your personal data, the right of rectification to correct inaccurate or incomplete data, and the right of erasure to request deletion of your personal data under certain circumstances.

You have the right to restrict processing of your personal data, the right to data portability (receiving your data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format), and the right to object to processing based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing purposes. Where processing is based on consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time.

The legal basis for our processing of your personal data includes performance of a contract (providing our job board services), legitimate interests (improving our services and ensuring security), compliance with legal obligations, and your consent where applicable. To exercise any of these rights or to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, contact us at info@truckingjobsinusa.com.

8. Children's Privacy

Our services are not directed to individuals under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16 years of age. CDL eligibility requires a minimum age of 18 (intrastate) or 21 (interstate), and our services are designed exclusively for adults who are eligible for commercial driving positions.

If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child under 16, we will take immediate steps to delete that information from our systems. If you are a parent or guardian and believe that your child has provided personal information to us, please contact us immediately so we can take appropriate action.

We encourage parents and guardians to monitor their children's online activities and to help enforce this policy by instructing their children never to provide personal information on our website or any other website without parental permission.

9. Security Measures

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. Our website uses SSL/TLS encryption to secure data transmission between your browser and our servers. All personal data is stored on secure servers with restricted access controls, and we regularly update our security protocols.

Access to personal information is limited to authorized employees and service providers who need the information to perform their job functions. All personnel with access to personal data are bound by confidentiality obligations. We conduct regular security assessments and vulnerability testing to identify and address potential risks.

While we strive to protect your personal information, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security, but we are committed to promptly addressing any security incidents. In the event of a data breach that affects your personal information, we will notify you and any applicable regulatory authorities as required by law.

10. Third-Party Links

Our website may contain links to third-party websites, including trucking company career pages, government resources (FMCSA, DOT, BLS), industry associations, and CDL training providers. These third-party sites have their own privacy policies, and we have no responsibility or liability for their content, activities, or privacy practices.

We encourage you to review the privacy policy of every website you visit after clicking a link on our site. The inclusion of a link on our website does not imply endorsement of the linked site's privacy practices. We are not responsible for the data collection or use practices of any third-party website or service.

When you apply for a job through an external link on our platform, you leave our website and your information is subject to the hiring company's privacy policy. We recommend reading the employer's privacy policy before submitting any personal information through their application portal.
