Your Home Careers Privacy Policy Journey Starts Here

Scope of this Policy

BrightShore Mortgage Inc. ("BrightShore", the "Company", "EMI", "we" or "us"), has developed this Privacy Policy out of respect for the privacy of our job applicants. This policy describes the personal information we collect, use, and disclose about individuals who apply for a position or employment. Our goal is to provide you with notice at or before the point at which we collect personal information from you informing you of what information we collect, how we use it, how long we retain it, and whether we sell it or share it for cross-contextual behavioral advertising purposes (we don't by the way).

This Privacy Policy applies only to your interaction with the Company in the capacity of a job applicant. It does not apply to other contexts, such as if you are hired for employment, in which case you would be provided access to a privacy policy that covers information collected in the employment context, or if you visit our public-facing website or engage in transactions with the Company in other capacities (as a client, customer, or independent contractor), in which case the privacy policy on our website would apply to those interactions.

For each category of information, we identify below the categories of third parties, service providers, and contractors to whom we have disclosed the information in the last 12 months. The examples provided for each category are not intended to be an exhaustive list or an instruction of all specific pieces of information we collect from or about you in each category, but rather the examples are to provide you with a meaningful understanding of the types of information that may be collected within each category.
