Architectural Fabrication Candidate Text Messaging Privacy Policy

Architectural Fabrication ("we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal information. This Candidate Text Messaging Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your personal data when you opt in to receive text messages (SMS/MMS) regarding your job application and the recruitment process.

1. Information We Collect and How We Use It

When you apply for a position with Architectural Fabrication and opt in to text communications, we collect your mobile phone number.

We use text messaging strictly for recruitment-related activities, including:

  • Sending updates regarding your job application status.
  • Scheduling and confirming interviews.
  • Sharing logistics or reminders related to the hiring process.

We will not use your mobile number to send automated marketing, promotional materials, or unrelated corporate communications.

2. Consent and Opt-In

By providing your mobile phone number and checking the opt-in box on our application portal or applicant tracking system, you expressly consent to receive text messages from Architectural Fabrication.

  • Providing consent is entirely voluntary.
  • Consenting to receive text messages is not a condition of employment or a requirement to be considered for a role.

3. How to Opt-Out

You can cancel and opt out of the text messaging service at any time.

  • To stop receiving text messages, simply reply STOP to any text message you receive from us.
  • After you send the message "STOP," we will send you one final text message to confirm that you have been unsubscribed.
  • Opting out of text messages will not negatively impact your job application or eliminate you from employment consideration. We will continue to communicate with you via email or phone call.

4. Data Sharing and Privacy Protection

Architectural Fabrication highly values your privacy.

  • No Third-Party Sharing: Your mobile information, phone number, and SMS consent data will never be sold, rented, or shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes.
  • Service Providers: Your data is only shared with our trusted applicant tracking and payroll vendor (Paylocity) solely to facilitate these recruitment text transmissions on our behalf.

5. Message Frequency and Rates

  • Message frequency varies depending on your stage in the interview and hiring process.
  • Standard message and data rates may apply from your mobile carrier. Architectural Fabrication is not responsible for any charges incurred from text communications.
