Privacy Policy

Perfect Fit Background Checks operates the PerfectFitBackgroundChecks.com website, which provides the Service.

This page informs visitors and users about our policies regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of personal information when you use our Service. If you choose to use our Service, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. We will not use or share your information with anyone except as described here.

Who This Policy Covers

The information we collect, and what we do with it, depends on your relationship with us:

  • Candidates are individuals on whom a background check is run, whether ordered by one of our business customers or by the individual themselves through a personal self-check.
  • Customers are businesses or individuals who use our Service to order background checks.
  • Site Visitors are anyone browsing our website, regardless of whether they become a Candidate or Customer.

Information Collection and Use

For a better experience while using our Service, we may require you to provide certain personally identifiable information, including but not limited to your name, phone number, postal address, and — for Candidates specifically — information necessary to complete a background check, such as date of birth and Social Security number. This information is used to contact or identify you and, for Candidates, to deliver background check results to the Customer who requested them.

Opting Out of Communications

If you wish to opt out of our optional communications, such as our newsletter, you may use the unsubscribe link in those emails or contact us directly to make this request.

Log Data

Whenever you visit our Service, we collect information your browser sends to us, called Log Data. This may include your computer's IP address, browser version, pages of our Service that you visit, the time and date of your visit, time spent on those pages, and other statistics.

Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies to collect information and improve our Service. We use CookieYes to manage cookie consent on our site, which allows you to review and control which categories of cookies you accept. You can update your cookie preferences at any time using the cookie preferences link in our website footer. If you choose to refuse certain cookies, some portions of our Service may not function as intended.

A Note on Federal Background Check Law

Some of the information we handle as part of providing background checks — such as criminal history, employment verification, and other consumer report data — is governed by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) rather than general state privacy laws. If you are a Candidate and have questions about your rights regarding a specific background check report, including how to dispute inaccurate information, please contact us directly or refer to the disclosures provided to you as part of the background check process.

Selling and Sharing of Personal Information

We do not sell your personal information in exchange for money. Some state privacy laws define “selling” or “sharing” more broadly than a monetary transaction — for example, certain uses of website analytics or advertising tools can fall under these broader definitions even when no data is sold for cash.

To the extent any of our website tools (such as analytics or advertising cookies) fall under these broader definitions, you can manage your preferences and opt out using our CookieYes cookie preferences tool, available in the website footer. We do not sell or share Candidate background check information for advertising purposes under any circumstances.

Service Providers

We may employ third-party companies and individuals to:

  • Facilitate our Service;
  • Provide the Service on our behalf;
  • Perform Service-related services; or
  • Assist us in analyzing how our Service is used.

These third parties have access to your personal information only to perform the tasks assigned to them on our behalf, and are obligated not to disclose or use the information for any other purpose.

Security

We value your trust in providing us your personal information and strive to use commercially acceptable means of protecting it. However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

Links to Other Sites

Our Service may contain links to other sites. If you click a third-party link, you will be directed to that site. These external sites are not operated by us, and we have no control over, and assume no responsibility for, the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites or services. We strongly advise you to review the privacy policy of any third-party site you visit.

Children's Privacy

Our Services do not address anyone under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13. If we discover that a child under 13 has provided us with personal information, we will delete it from our servers immediately. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We advise you to review this page periodically for changes. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page, effective immediately upon posting.
