Career Refined does not sell clients' personal information. We may share information with service providers when reasonably necessary to operate the business or provide requested services, subject to applicable agreements and legal requirements. We may also disclose information when required by law or when reasonably necessary to protect the rights, safety, or security of Career Refined, our clients, or others.

Client Documents and Security

Résumés and other submitted documents may contain detailed professional information. Career Refined uses such information to provide requested services and takes reasonable administrative and technical measures intended to safeguard client information. No method of electronic storage or transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Third-Party Websites

CareerRefined.com may link to employers, job boards, education platforms, scholarship providers, scheduling services, payment processors, and other third-party websites. Those services operate under their own terms and privacy policies, and Career Refined is not responsible for their privacy practices.
