Privacy + candidate data
How Common Ground uses your information.
Effective October 23, 2026
Information we collect
We collect information you submit through career, partner and contact forms, including your name, email, phone number, location, company, career interests, experience and other information you choose to provide. We may also collect basic technical information needed to operate and protect the website.
How we use information
We use submitted information to respond to inquiries, operate the Common Ground program, connect people with relevant opportunities, manage partner access, improve the platform and meet legal or security obligations.
Cookies and site technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies that are necessary to operate and secure the website, including maintaining approved partner portal sessions and remembering interface preferences. We do not currently use advertising cookies or sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. If our use of cookies changes, we will update this notice and provide any choices required by law.
Candidate data notice
When you submit a career profile and provide consent, participating Common Ground employers and training organizations may view the information you submitted through the shared coalition talent portal. Participating companies are responsible for how they use information after making a connection.
Submitting a profile does not guarantee contact, an interview, admission to a program or employment.
Sharing
We share candidate information with approved participating employers and training organizations only when the candidate has consented. We may also use service providers that help us host the website, process forms, send email and maintain the platform. We do not sell candidate profiles.
Retention and security
We retain information only as long as reasonably needed for the program, our records and applicable legal obligations. We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards, but no online system can guarantee absolute security.
Your choices
You may request access to, correction of or deletion of information you submitted by emailing info@commongroundtour.com. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request.
Children
The website and talent portal are not directed to children under 13. A parent or legal guardian should contact us if they believe a child submitted personal information.

Questions about privacy or candidate data can be sent to info@commongroundtour.com or Champion Marketing Group LLC, Hood River, Oregon.
This notice describes the current Common Ground program and may be updated as the platform develops.
