Introduction
Newport Search Group LLC (“Newport Search Group,” “Newport,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information you provide to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard information when you interact with Newport Search Group, including through our website, recruiting and staffing services, telephone communications, email, and SMS/MMS messaging.
Information We Collect
We may collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us, including your name, email address, telephone number, mailing address, employment history, résumé, professional qualifications, certifications, skills, job preferences, availability, compensation expectations, and other information relevant to recruiting, staffing, employment, or business services.
We may also collect information from communications with you, including email correspondence, telephone communications, SMS/MMS messages, job applications, interviews, and other interactions with Newport Search Group.
When you consent to SMS/MMS communications, we may maintain records relating to your mobile telephone number, consent status, date or method of consent, messaging preferences, and opt-out requests.
How We Use Your Information
Newport Search Group may use personal information to provide recruiting and staffing services; identify and communicate relevant employment opportunities; evaluate candidate qualifications; coordinate applications and interviews; communicate regarding availability, assignments, placements, onboarding, and employment-related matters; communicate with clients regarding staffing requirements and candidates; respond to inquiries; maintain business and compliance records; improve our services; and comply with applicable legal and regulatory requirements.
Providing a mobile telephone number does not automatically authorize Newport Search Group to send SMS/MMS messages where consent is required. We obtain appropriate consent before sending such communications.
SMS/MMS Communications
If you consent to receive SMS/MMS messages from Newport Search Group, messages may relate to recruiting and staffing activities, including job opportunities, candidate inquiries, application status, interview scheduling and reminders, availability, onboarding, assignments, placements, and related staffing communications.
Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply.
You may opt out of SMS/MMS communications at any time by replying STOP to a message from Newport Search Group. You may reply HELP for assistance.
Consent to receive SMS/MMS communications is not a condition of purchasing goods or services from Newport Search Group.
Mobile Information and SMS Consent
No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes.
Text messaging originator opt-in data and consent information will not be shared with any third parties, except as necessary to provide the messaging service or as required by law.
Newport Search Group does not sell SMS/MMS opt-in information or consent records.
This SMS-specific restriction applies notwithstanding any other provision of this Privacy Policy concerning the disclosure or sharing of information.
How We May Share Other Information
Newport Search Group does not sell your personal information, and does not share personal information with third parties or affiliates for their own marketing or promotional purposes.
Outside of mobile information and SMS consent data addressed above, Newport Search Group may disclose personal information only as described in this Privacy Policy and when reasonably necessary to provide recruiting and staffing services.
For example, with appropriate authorization or where otherwise permitted, candidate information may be provided to prospective or current clients in connection with employment opportunities, assignments, placements, or staffing services.
We may also use service providers that perform services on our behalf, such as technology, communications, data hosting, recruiting, administrative, or professional services. Such providers may receive information only as reasonably necessary to perform services on our behalf and are expected to protect the information appropriately.
We may also disclose information when required by law, legal process, governmental request, or when reasonably necessary to protect the rights, property, security, or safety of Newport Search Group, our clients, candidates, employees, or others.
Data Security
Newport Search Group uses reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, misuse, or destruction. However, no electronic transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide our recruiting and staffing services, maintain appropriate business records, fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, and comply with applicable legal, contractual, and regulatory obligations.

You may contact Newport Search Group to request that we update or correct certain personal information. You may opt out of marketing email communications by following the unsubscribe instructions provided in those communications, where applicable. For SMS/MMS communications, reply STOP to opt out or HELP for assistance.
