Privacy Statement

Linchpin Solutions, Inc. (“Linchpin Solutions,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Statement explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect personal information obtained through our public website, linchpinsolutions.com, and communications associated with website inquiries.

This statement applies to our public corporate website. It does not replace separate privacy notices or contractual terms that may apply to employment, customer engagements, software platforms, or other services.

1. Information We Collect

Information you provide. We collect personal information you choose to provide when you complete a contact form, request information, or communicate with us. Depending on your interaction, this may include your name, email address, telephone number, organization, job title, and information contained in your inquiry or correspondence.

Please provide only the information reasonably necessary for us to respond to your request.

Information collected automatically. Our website and supporting service providers may collect technical and usage information when you visit. This may include your Internet Protocol (IP) address, browser and device information, operating system, referring website, pages visited, access dates and times, and interactions with website features. The information collected depends on the services used and your browser and privacy settings.

2. How We Use Information

We use information collected through the website to respond to inquiries; provide requested information about our capabilities, services, and business opportunities; direct employment inquiries to the appropriate recruiting resources; and manage related communications.

We also use information to operate, maintain, and improve the website; understand website performance; prevent spam, fraud, and unauthorized activity; maintain appropriate business records; and satisfy applicable legal obligations.

When we send optional marketing communications, you may request that we stop by using the unsubscribe instructions provided in the communication or contacting us through the methods below.

3. How We Disclose Information

We may disclose personal information to service providers that support website hosting, form processing, business communications, information technology, security, analytics, and recruiting, as relevant to your interaction with us. We limit these disclosures to information reasonably needed for the applicable purpose.

We may also disclose information to professional advisers or other parties when reasonably necessary to comply with applicable law or legal process, protect rights and safety, investigate suspected misconduct, or address security incidents.

Personal information may be disclosed in connection with a proposed or completed merger, acquisition, reorganization, or transfer of business assets, subject to applicable legal requirements. We may also disclose information at your direction or with your consent.

4. Cookies, Analytics, and Embedded Features

Our website and integrated third-party features may use cookies, scripts, or similar technologies to support website functionality, security, usage measurement, and embedded content.

Third-party features, such as maps and recruiting tools, may communicate directly with their providers when the relevant page or feature loads. Those providers may receive technical information about your device and interaction with the feature. Their processing practices are described in their respective privacy notices.

You can use your browser settings to manage or delete cookies and restrict certain tracking technologies. Restricting these technologies may affect some website features. Where applicable law requires consent for nonessential technologies, we obtain that consent before using them.

5. Careers and Employment Applications

Our careers pages may display job opportunities or provide access to a recruiting platform, such as Paylocity. Applications, résumés, and other employment-related information submitted through a recruiting platform may be subject to additional privacy notices presented during the application process.

Linchpin Solutions remains responsible for its own handling of applicant information. A recruiting provider’s privacy notice does not replace any privacy obligations that apply to Linchpin Solutions.

Please review the notices provided through the application process before submitting employment-related information.

6. Information Security and Retention

We use administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. No method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure.

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this statement, including responding to inquiries, maintaining relevant business records, meeting legal obligations, and resolving disputes. Retention periods depend on the type of information, the nature of our relationship with you, and applicable requirements.

When information is no longer needed, we take steps to delete it or render it non-identifiable, subject to applicable retention obligations.

7. Sensitive and Restricted Information

Our public website and contact forms are not intended for submitting Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), classified information, export-controlled technical data, or other restricted government or customer information.

Do not submit Social Security numbers, account passwords, financial account information, medical records, or other sensitive personal information through general website contact forms.

When an engagement requires exchanging sensitive or restricted information, contact your Linchpin Solutions representative to arrange an appropriate, approved method.

8. Your Privacy Choices and Rights

You may choose not to provide personal information through the website. However, this may limit our ability to respond to an inquiry or provide requested information.

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights to request access to personal information, obtain a copy, correct inaccuracies, request deletion, or object to or restrict certain processing. You may also have rights to withdraw consent or opt out of certain advertising-related uses or disclosures.
