Privacy Policy

This Applicant Privacy Policy is intended to inform you about how the personal information you submit as a job applicant through this website will be handled and protected by Lightronics Inc.  Information you provide will be used based upon your consent to the provisions of this policy.

Lightronics Inc. collects and uses your personal information for the purpose of determining your qualifications for employment and reaching a hiring decision, as well as to comply with applicable laws and regulations, such as laws related to the evaluation of those seeking employment, or to defend ourselves in claims under such laws. Relevant portions of your personal information, if you are hired, also will be used to establish a basic employment record. We do not collect or use the personal information you submit as a job applicant for unrelated purposes.

Most of the personal information Lightronics Inc. collects about you is collected directly from your application or resume, and stored on servers located in the United States. We may also collect information about you from third parties, in order to: (a) verify information about your credentials, such as education and prior employment, (b) follow-up on references that you may provide, and (c) conduct background investigations.

Access to your information will be restricted to those Lightronics Inc. staff and designated agents who have a need to know the specific information in question in order to carry out their responsibilities with regard to recruitment or employment law. Your information may also be disclosed to governmental entities in compliance with applicable law in the US, such as to those agencies authorized to review and enforce equal opportunity laws. We do not disclose applicant information to job banks, other companies or external parties.

Lightronics Inc. uses appropriate administrative, technical, personnel, and physical measures to safeguard your personal information against loss, theft, and unauthorized use or modification. In addition, we exercise special precautions in dealing with applicant personal data defined as sensitive by law. Lightronics Inc. retains your personal information only as long as is necessary for evaluation for employment, as well as to comply with applicable laws relating to the evaluation of those seeking employment. After this time, normally one year, your information is deleted.

Once you have submitted your resume for a specific opening, you will not be able to update the information contained in that resume. A new resume may be submitted when applying for other positions.  Lightronics Inc. may contact you, using the contact information you have provided, for purposes of responding to your application for a particular job or jobs.  If you have questions or concerns about Lightronics Inc. policies and practices for handling applicant personal information received through this website, you may call human resources at 757-486-3588.
