Workforce Member Privacy Policy
(Applicable to California Residents)
Last Updated: December 22, 2022
Our Commitment to Privacy
The Little Brown Box Pizza, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, doing business as Pieology, together with its affiliates, subsidiaries, and franchisees, (collectively “Pieology,” “us,” “we,” or “our”) has developed and implemented this privacy policy (“Workforce Member Privacy Policy”) to demonstrate its commitment to privacy for California residents who are or are seeking to become a member of the Pieology workforce. This Workforce Member Privacy Policy is designed to assist California workforce members and candidates (“you”) in understanding how we collect, use, share, and safeguard personal information as part of your working relationship with us.
To Whom This Workforce Member Privacy Policy Applies
This Workforce Member Privacy Policy applies to individuals in connection with their status as a workforce member or candidate (collectively “workforce members”). Our privacy practices with respect to personal information collected in other contexts, including visiting the Pieology website and using our mobile application, can be found in our General Privacy Policy. This Workforce Member Privacy Policy is supplemental to our General Privacy Policy.
Except as may be specifically required by law, this Workforce Member Privacy Policy does not apply to information available from a public source (such as a telephone directory) or to aggregated or de-identified information we may collect about our workforce, nor to references to workforce members in company work product. This Workforce Member Privacy Notice is intended to comply with the California Consumer Privacy Act (the “CCPA”).
Children’s Personal Information
We do not consider candidates for employment under the legal working age for the jurisdiction in which employment is to be offered. We do not knowingly collect, process, sell or share the personal information of individuals under the age of 18. If you believe that a child under 18 may have provided us their personal information, please contact us at privacy@pieology.com.
How We Define Personal Information
Personal information is a broadly defined term whose legal definition varies across jurisdictions. When used in this Workforce Member Privacy Policy, “personal information” means information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with an individual.
How to Read and Understand this Policy
To make this policy clear and easy to understand, we have broken it up into specific sections. The first section, the “Notice at Collection” provides notice about the categories of personal information we collect about you, the purposes for which we use the personal information (including whether we sell or share your personal information), and how long we retain the information. The next section, “Your Privacy Rights” describes your legal rights pursuant to the CCPA and how you may exercise those rights.
Notice at Collection
This Notice at Collection is incorporated into our Workforce Member Privacy Policy and provides notice of our personal information collection and use practices with respect to California residents who are, or are seeking to become, a member of the Pieology workforce (“Workforce Members” or “you”). For ease of reference, we have presented the relevant information in a chart explaining our collection, use, and disclosure practices related to workforce members.
