Privacy Policy
Version 2.2. Effective November 5, 2026.
Contents
RetailHired by 1-800 RETAIL is a job advertising and career information platform for retail jobs in the United States. RetailHired is a brand of 1800RETAIL LLC, which operates it. In this policy, "we," "us," and "our" mean 1800RETAIL LLC. We decide how and why personal data collected through RetailHired is used, which makes us the controller of that data. This policy explains what we collect, why we collect it, who receives it, how long we keep it, and the choices you have. It applies to job seekers, employers, job alert subscribers, and anyone who visits the site or writes to us.
1. Who we are and how to reach us
RetailHired runs on Job Boardly, a job board platform operated by Glacier Systems Pty Ltd. Job Boardly hosts the site and processes data on our behalf. We are responsible for this policy and for how personal data is used on RetailHired.
For privacy questions or requests, use the contact form or write to privacy@1800retail.com. Please tell us which part of this policy your question is about and the email address you used with RetailHired, so we can find your records.
2. What we collect and why
We collect the data described in the table below. We get data in three ways: directly from you when you fill in a form, automatically from your browser when you visit, and from the consent tool when you make a cookie choice. The table lists each group of people, what we collect, and why.
| Who or what | What we collect | Why we use it |
|---|---|---|
| Job seekers | Profile fields you enter: first and last name, email address, headline, location, resume file, photo, LinkedIn link, website, skills, an "about" section, and your available-for-work setting. The application materials you submit through RetailHired's application form. | To create your account, let you sign in, and deliver your applications to the employers you choose. To contact you about your account. |
| Employers | Company details: logo, company name, website, description, contact name, and email address. Job listings you post, including title, description, location, job type, and the pay range or rate, which every employer post must state. | To create your account, manually review and publish the listings you submit directly, deliver applications to you, and contact you about your account and listings. |
| Job alert subscribers | Email address, confirmation status, and the alert type you selected. | To send the alerts you asked for, and only after you confirm your address. |
| Contact form messages | Name, email address, and the message you write, including reports about listings. | To answer you and to act on reports. |
| Technical data | IP address and browser information, first-party visit identifiers set by the platform, and bot protection signals. The platform's first-party visit tracking and a cookieless measurement beacon also record visits. | To run the site, keep it secure, block automated abuse, and understand overall use of the site. |
| Consent records | Your cookie choices and whether your browser sent a Global Privacy Control signal, as recorded by the platform's consent tool. | To apply your choices and keep a record of them. |
| Payments | None today. RetailHired does not offer paid services and does not collect payment details. | If paid services are introduced, we will update this policy before we collect any payment details. |
Please do not include Social Security numbers, bank account details, or government ID numbers in a profile, application, or message. We do not ask for them, and you should not need to share them to be considered for a job.
3. Applications
There are two ways to apply to a job on RetailHired. Which one applies depends on the listing.
Applying through RetailHired
Some listings use RetailHired's own application form. You do not need an account to use it. When you submit the form, your application is delivered to the RetailHired account of the employer who posted the listing. The employer can review it and update its status, for example to Shortlisted or Not Selected. The employer is responsible for how it uses and shares your application once it receives it. A copy also remains in the employer's RetailHired account, which our platform provider hosts for us, and that copy is covered by this policy, including section 7. RetailHired does not make hiring decisions and does not screen applications for employers.
Applying with an employer or an external service
Other listings send you to the employer's own website or to an external application service. When you leave RetailHired, that site's privacy practices apply. Applications you send on an employer's site are governed by that employer's privacy policy. We do not receive them, and we cannot see, correct, or delete them. Read the privacy notice on that site before you share personal information.
Job listings are public. Anyone can read them without an account. If you are an employer, the company details you provide may appear with your listings.
Imported listings and listing checks
Some listings are gathered from public job postings through a third-party job data provider. They say "Apply on employer website." Our automated listing checks visit employers' public job pages only, to see whether a posting is still available. These checks collect no personal data.
4. Who receives data
We share personal data in the following cases and with the following parties.
- Employers you apply to. Your application and the materials you attach go to the employer who posted the listing.
- Our platform provider. RetailHired runs on Job Boardly, operated by Glacier Systems Pty Ltd (ABN 47 687 105 184). Job Boardly is our processor: it hosts the site, stores the data, and sends email on our behalf. Job Boardly states that its infrastructure is hosted primarily in the United States, and it publishes a list of its sub-processors.
- Bot protection and content delivery providers. The site loads bot protection from Botpoison, a cookieless web analytics beacon from Cloudflare, and script libraries from the unpkg content delivery network. Cloudflare also handles network traffic for the site's www address. These services process technical data such as your IP address and browser information to deliver the page, block automated abuse, and count visits.
- People you direct us to share with. When you ask us to share something, for example by applying to a listing, we share it as you direct.
- A successor operator. If RetailHired or its operator is sold, merged, or reorganized, records may transfer to the successor. That successor will be bound by this policy for data collected under it.
- Professional advisors and authorities. We may share data with our professional advisors, or with courts, regulators, or law enforcement, where the law requires it or where it is needed to protect the rights and safety of RetailHired, its users, or others.
We do not sell personal information. We do not share personal data for cross-context behavioral advertising. No advertising or marketing tracking is configured on RetailHired today.
5. Cookies and similar technologies
RetailHired uses a consent tool provided by the platform. It groups cookies and scripts into three categories:
- Strictly necessary. Needed to run the site, keep you signed in, protect forms from automated abuse, and record your consent choices. Always on.
- Analytics. Optional third-party tools that measure how the site is used. None have been added to this category today. The platform's cookieless measurement beacon, described below, is not part of this category.
- Marketing. Third-party tools that track visitors for advertising. None are installed today.
The Analytics and Marketing toggles control third-party tools added to those categories. None are installed today, so the toggles do not change anything yet. Two items run on every visit regardless of your choice: a cookieless visit measurement beacon from Cloudflare Web Analytics, which sets no cookies, and the platform's first-party visit identifiers (ahoy_visit and ahoy_visitor). These load before you make a cookie choice and are not controlled by the Analytics or Marketing toggles. No Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, LinkedIn, TikTok, Hotjar, or similar scripts are installed. If we add analytics or marketing tools later, we will place them in the matching category and update this policy.
Cookies and storage set by the platform
| Name | What it does |
|---|---|
| _job_boardly_session | Platform session cookie. Keeps your session while you browse, sign in, and use forms. |
| cc_vid | Consent visitor identifier used by the consent tool. |
| cc_prefs | Stores your cookie choices after you make them. |
| ahoy_visit and ahoy_visitor | First-party visit identifiers set by the platform to recognize a visit. |
| Botpoison | Bot protection uses your browser's session storage rather than a cookie to tell people from automated scripts. |
We have not found any third-party advertising cookies on RetailHired, and none are configured.
Your cookie choices
Select Cookie settings in the footer of any page to open the preferences dialog. You can accept all, reject all, or turn Analytics and Marketing on or off and save your preferences. Strictly necessary items cannot be turned off. You can change your choice at any time from the same control.
On your first visit, a cookie banner asks you to accept all, reject all, or open your preferences. Analytics and Marketing stay off unless you turn them on. Our platform provider states that the banner can differ by region. Either way, the footer control is always available.
If your browser or a browser extension sends a Global Privacy Control signal, the platform honors it automatically. It records a refusal of the Analytics and Marketing categories without any action from you. Because no analytics or marketing tools are installed today, the signal does not change what loads on the site, but your refusal is recorded and we will respect it if such tools are added.
Browsers also offer an older Do Not Track setting. We have not confirmed whether the platform responds to that setting, so please use Global Privacy Control or the Cookie settings control to record your choice.
Your consent choices, including any Global Privacy Control signal, are logged by the platform provider so that your choices can be applied and shown if asked.
6. Email
Job alerts. When you sign up for job alerts, we send a confirmation email. You will not receive alerts until you confirm your address by email. Two alert types exist: a weekly summary, which is the default, and alerts for individual jobs posted directly on RetailHired. You can change your alert type or unsubscribe from the link in the footer of the alert emails. You can also ask us at any time to remove your subscription.
Newsletter. RetailHired does not send a newsletter today. If we start one, we will update this policy first.
Account and contact email. We send account emails such as password setup links when you request them. If you write to us through the contact form, we use your email address to reply.
Alert and account emails are sent through the platform provider's email system.
7. How long we keep data
The table below lists the retention periods that apply today. Where no period is listed, we keep data until you ask us to delete it or we no longer need it. We do not run automatic deletion for expired listings or subscriber records today.
| Data | How long |
|---|---|
| Messages sent through the contact form or with an application | 12 months. This is a platform setting. |
| Job alert subscriptions | Until you unsubscribe or we remove the subscription. |
| Employer and job seeker accounts | Until you ask us to delete the account or we close it. |
| Job listings | Shown publicly until they expire or are removed. Expired listings are not deleted automatically, so they stay in our records until they are removed. |
| Consent records and server logs | Kept by the platform provider under its published terms. |
| Billing records | None exist today. If paid services are introduced, billing records will be kept for as long as tax law requires. |
When you ask us to delete data, we may keep a limited record where the law requires it.
8. Your choices and rights
You can:
- Access the personal data we hold about you.
- Correct data that is wrong or out of date.
- Ask us to delete your account, profile, or subscription, and to remove messages or applications where the platform allows it.
- Change your cookie choices at any time from the Cookie settings control in the footer.
- Use Global Privacy Control to record a refusal of the Analytics and Marketing categories automatically. It does not switch off the strictly necessary items or the two always-on items described in section 5.
- Stop job alerts by unsubscribing from the link in the footer of any alert email or by asking us to remove your subscription.
How to make a request. Use the contact form or write to privacy@1800retail.com. Tell us what you want us to do and the email address you used with RetailHired. Account holders can also sign in at /session/new to review their account.
Verification. Before we act on a request, we may need to confirm that you are the person the data is about, or that you are allowed to act for that person.
State privacy rights. If you live in California or another state with a consumer privacy law, you may have the right to know what personal data we collect and how we use it, to access, correct, and delete it, and to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal data. RetailHired does not sell personal data and does not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. We will respond to requests as required by applicable law. We will not treat you differently because you exercised a privacy right.
If you believe we have not handled your data properly, tell us first so we can put it right. You may also contact the consumer protection or privacy authority in your state.
9. Where data is processed
Our platform provider states that its infrastructure is hosted primarily in the United States. According to those statements, your data is stored and processed primarily in the United States. The provider itself is based in Australia. We have not verified the provider's hosting statements independently. If you use RetailHired from outside the United States, your data is transferred to the United States, where privacy laws may differ from those in your country.
10. Security
Our platform provider manages the technical security of the hosting infrastructure. It states that data is encrypted in transit and at rest and that the platform runs on established cloud infrastructure. These are the provider's statements. RetailHired relies on them and has not verified them independently. We are responsible for how we configure and use the platform and for who has access to our administrative account.
No website or email system is completely secure. We cannot promise that data will never be accessed without permission. You can help protect your account by using a strong password that you do not use elsewhere, keeping it private, and signing out on shared devices. If you think someone has used your account without permission, contact us right away. If a breach affects your personal data, we will notify you as required by law.
11. Children
RetailHired is not directed to anyone under 18. This is consistent with our Terms of Service. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. If you believe a person under 18 has given us personal data, contact us and we will remove it.
12. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as RetailHired changes, for example if we introduce paid services or new tools. When we do, we will post the new version on this page with a new effective date. Please check back from time to time. If a change materially expands how we use personal data we already hold, we will not apply it to that data without first posting a clear notice on this page and obtaining any consent the law requires.
