This notice covers the Hire Overseas MCP server at https://api.hireoverseas.com/mcp, which lets AI assistants (such as Claude or ChatGPT) search our candidate pool and request introductions on your behalf. Our general Privacy Policy also applies. Where the two differ for this service, this notice governs.
| Information | When | What we do with it |
|---|---|---|
| Search details: job title, role description, skills, experience and region | Each candidate search your assistant runs | Used to find matching candidates. The search text is sent to our embedding provider (Google) to be converted into a numeric representation, which we store so repeated searches are faster. Results are held in memory for about 10 minutes. We do not link searches to you: the service has no accounts and receives no name or email with a search. |
| Your company name, work email, the role, an optional message and the candidate you chose | Only when you ask for an introduction | Stored so our team can verify the candidate and reply to you. Shared internally with the Hire Overseas team, including through our internal messaging and sales tools. |
| IP address | Every request | Used to enforce rate limits and prevent abuse, and recorded in server logs. |
We do not receive the rest of your conversation with your assistant. We receive only what the assistant sends when it calls one of our tools. Your assistant's provider handles your conversation under its own privacy policy.
Search results are anonymized profiles: a first name, country, timezone, skills, experience and work history by job title and industry. They do not include surnames, contact details, links or employer names. A candidate's resume can be read with the same details removed by automated redaction. Where a candidate has recorded an intro video, results include a link to it; the video shows the candidate, and each link expires (after 24 hours from a search, or 7 days after an introduction request). Please do not attempt to identify or contact candidates directly. Hire Overseas screens and verifies a candidate, and confirms availability, before making any introduction.
We use service providers to run this service, including cloud hosting and database providers in the United States, Google (search embeddings) and Slack (internal notifications). They process information only to provide their services to us.
Introduction requests are kept for as long as needed to respond to you and to manage our relationship with you, and as required by law. Rate-limit data is held in memory for up to 24 hours. You can ask us to delete an introduction request at any time.
Searching requires no personal information. To access, correct or delete information you gave us in an introduction request, or to ask any question about this notice, email privacy@hireoverseas.com. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights described in our Privacy Policy.
We will update this page when the service changes how it handles information, and revise the date above.
