Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 17, 2026

This policy explains what personal information ABusyBee.me collects, why, who we share it with, and the choices and rights you have. We keep it as short and plain as we can.

1. Who we are

ABusyBee.me (“ABusyBee”, “we”, “us”) is a recruiting service that connects job seekers with employers for full-time roles. For anything in this policy, see how to contact us below.

We are the “controller” of the personal information described here.

2. Information we collect

From job seekers (our applicant form and conversations with us)

• Name, email address, phone number and general location
• Work history, experience, skills, licenses and certifications (for example a CDL)
• The roles, schedule and pay you are looking for, and your availability
• Confirmation that you meet the minimum age for a role
• Anything else you choose to tell us, including during calls, texts or emails

From employers (our client form and conversations with us)

• Your name, job title, company, business email and phone number
• Details about the roles you are hiring for

From everyone who visits the website

• Technical data such as IP address, browser and device type, processed by our hosting and security provider to deliver the site and protect it from abuse
• Privacy-friendly, aggregated visitor statistics that do not use cookies or identify you

The website does not use advertising or tracking cookies. Please do not send us sensitive information such as Social Security or national ID numbers, bank details or health information through our forms — we will ask for anything an employer legitimately needs later, through the appropriate channel.

3. How we use your information

• To match job seekers with suitable roles and present candidates to prospective employers
• To contact you about opportunities, interviews and next steps by phone, email or text message
• To understand and fill employers’ hiring needs and manage our client relationships
• To send invoices, keep business records and meet our legal and tax obligations
• To operate, secure and improve the website

If you are in the EU, the UK, Serbia or another country with similar laws, we rely on these legal bases: your consent (which you can withdraw at any time), steps you ask us to take before entering into an agreement, our legitimate interests in running a recruiting business, and compliance with legal obligations.

4. Who we share it with

• Prospective employers — we share a job seeker’s relevant profile only for roles they are being considered for, and we discuss roles with you before putting you forward.
• Service providers who help us run the business — for example Google (forms, email and storage), Cloudflare (website hosting and security) and our phone and messaging providers. They may only use the information to provide their services to us.
• Authorities or others when required by law, or to protect our rights, our users or the public.
• A successor business if ABusyBee is ever merged, acquired or reorganized, under the same protections described here.

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for third-party marketing.

5. Text messages (SMS)

If you give us your mobile number and agree to be contacted, we may send you text messages about job opportunities, interviews, scheduling and next steps.

• Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply.
• Reply STOP at any time to stop receiving texts, or HELP for help.
• Consent to receive texts is not a condition of using our service.
• Mobile carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.

6. International transfers

Our team and service providers may work from different countries, including the United States and Serbia. Your information may therefore be stored and accessed in the United States and in other countries whose data protection laws may differ from yours. Where the law requires it, we use appropriate safeguards, such as our providers’ standard contractual clauses, to protect it.

7. How long we keep it

• Job seekers: while you are actively looking for work with us, and for up to 24 months after our last contact so we can tell you about new roles — then we delete it, unless you ask us to keep you on file. You can ask us to delete it sooner at any time.
• Employers: for the length of our working relationship, and afterwards as long as needed for contracts, invoices, tax and accounting records.

8. Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

• Access the personal information we hold about you and get a copy of it
• Correct information that is inaccurate or incomplete
• Have your information deleted
• Object to or restrict how we use it, or withdraw consent you gave us
• Receive your information in a portable format
• Not be treated differently for exercising any of these rights

To use any of these rights, contact us. We will respond within 30 days and may need to confirm your identity first. If you are in the EU, UK or Serbia, you can also complain to your local data protection authority.

9. Security

We use reputable providers, encrypted connections (HTTPS) and access controls to protect your information. No system is perfectly secure, but we limit what we collect and who can see it.

10. Age

Our service is for adults. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 16, and job seekers must meet the minimum legal working age for the roles they apply for.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top shows the latest version. If a change is significant, we will make it clear on this page.

12. Contact

Reach us through the forms on our website: employers via the client form, job seekers via the application form. If your message is about your personal information, start it with “Privacy request” so it reaches the right person quickly. You can also reply STOP to any text message from us to stop receiving texts.
