SkillsHub will not, under any circumstances, disclose any of this information to any third party without the user’s approval.

Why is the information collected? How will we use it?
Contact information from the registration form is used to get in touch with the visitor when necessary.
Information regarding our clients is used only to provide services. We do not sell or share client information with any outside agency unless approval is granted by the client.
Personal information regarding candidates is added to our database, and it is used to place candidates in positions at our client sites. This information may be used by any internal staff member and may be sent to clients interviewing potential candidates for positions.
