You may withdraw consent at any time where processing is consent-based. Withdrawal does not affect processing already performed, and it may limit our ability to continue certain services that depend on the data.

Candidate profiles may be kept to consider future opportunities unless you request deletion. Client and billing records may be retained for statutory accounting and tax requirements.
When data is no longer needed, we delete or anonymize it in accordance with our internal retention practices.
