The California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act, and its implementing regulations (collectively, the “CCPA”), gives California residents certain rights and requires businesses to make certain disclosures regarding their collection, use, and disclosure of personal information. This California Job Prospects and Applicants Privacy Notice (“California Applicant Notice”) supplements the Jazz Pharmaceuticals Global Job Prospects and Applicants Privacy Notice and provides additional information about Jazz’s processing of personal information about Applicants who are residents of California.
Please note that this California Applicant Notice does not apply to information we collect in non-job-applicant or non-pre-employment related capacities or to Applicants that are not California residents. For further details about our privacy practices pertaining to non-Applicant personal information, please visit https://privacy.jazzpharma.com/
Other terms used herein that are defined terms under the CCPA shall have the meanings afforded to them by the CCPA, whether or not capitalized, unless the context indicates otherwise.
We collect, and in the past 12 months have collected, the following categories of personal information from Applicants:
Identifiers/Contact Information, such as name (including prefix or title), gender, age or date of birth, personal or business email, mailing address, telephone number, social media profiles, IP address and other unique identifiers, and in certain instances identification documents, social security number, or other taxpayer/government identification number;
Characteristics of Protected Classification under applicable law, such as age, gender, and marital status;
We collect, process, and disclose, and in the past 12 months have collected, processed, and disclosed, the categories of personal information listed in Section II of this California Applicant Notice for the following purposes:
Further, we collect, process, and disclose the categories of sensitive personal information described in this California Applicant Notice only for purposes that are permitted by the CCPA regulations.
We may also aggregate and/or deidentify Applicant personal information and analyze those data for analytical, research, statistical, or any other purposes permitted by law. When we do so, we take reasonable measures to ensure that the information cannot be associated with an Applicant or household, and we maintain and use the information in deidentified form. We will not attempt to reidentify the information, except that we may attempt to reidentify the information solely for the purpose of determining whether our deidentification processes satisfy applicable legal requirements. After it has been deidentified, the information is no longer personal information and is not subject to this California Applicant Notice.
Please note that we may also process Applicant personal information via use of automated technologies, including artificial intelligence, for the purposes listed above. To the extent permitted by applicable law, we may also use personal information we collect to train automated technologies we use for the above purposes. However, we do not process Applicant personal information using automated decision making technologies to make significant decisions concerning Applicants.
We may retain Applicant personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed for the recruitment and pre-employment activities we have explained in this California Applicant Notice (and if applicable for the duration of your subsequent employment with us). In some cases, we may be required to retain information for a longer duration to comply with laws or regulations or other legal obligations, resolve disputes and enforce our agreements.
If we offer you a position with us, and you decide to accept, we will send our Employee Privacy Notice to you. The Employee Privacy Notice explains how we use, store and protect the personal information of our employees.
We generally do not Sell or Share personal information that we collect about Applicants. Subject to some exceptions, a “Sale” is the disclosure of personal information to a third party for monetary or other valuable consideration, and a “Share” is the disclosure of personal information to a third party for cross-context behavioral advertising, whether or not for monetary or other valuable consideration.
However, we do Sell and Share, and we have Sold and Shared in the past 12 months, personal information we collect from consumers in other contexts. This includes Personal Information collected via cookies and other tracking technologies, including identifiers, such as IP addresses and other device identifiers, internet or other electronic network activity information, and inferences to third party marketing and analytics providers. We Sell and Share these categories of personal information for marketing and analytics purposes, including to analyze or predict consumer preferences to identify aggregated trends to develop, improve or modify our products, services and business activities and to deliver advertising, including interest-based advertising on our websites and applications and improving our advertising efforts. We do not otherwise “Sell” or “Share” other types of personal information we may collect about Applicants outside the cookie and online tracking technology context.
California Applicants have the right to opt-out of the Sale and Sharing of their personal information. To do so, click the “Your Privacy Choices” link in the footer of our websites and click “Reject All.”
We do not Sell or Share personal information of consumers we know, or reasonably should know, are under 18 years of age.
We disclose, and in the past 12 months have disclosed, each of the categories of Applicant personal information listed in Section II of this California Applicant Notice in the following contexts:

We may also collect your personal information from alternative sources including:
As a California Applicant, you have the following rights regarding our collection and use of your personal information, subject to certain exceptions.
Rights that Require Verification
Exercising the Rights to Know, Deletion, Correction, and Access Specific Pieces of PI: You can make such a request by calling (888) 249-7888, or by clicking here and filling out the Privacy Request Form. To verify your identity, we will match the information provided in the request to the information we have in our records. If necessary, we may ask the requestor to provide additional information to verify your identity and confirm that the request is valid. You may be able to authorize an agent to submit a request on your behalf. Authorized agents may submit a request in the same manner as an Applicant, as listed above. When you use an authorized agent, we may ask the authorized agent to provide a copy of the Applicant’s signed permission authorizing the agent to act on the Applicant’s behalf, and in certain circumstances, we may ask you to verify your own identity directly with us. In some instances, we may decline to honor your request if an exception applies under applicable law. We will respond to your request consistent with applicable law.
Rights that Do Not Require Verification
Opt-Out Preference Signals: We recognize opt-out preference signals that we are required to recognize for compliance with applicable law. Where required by the CCPA, we treat such opt-out preference signals as a valid request to opt-out of Sale and Sharing for the browser or device through which the signal is sent and any consumer profile we have associated with that browser or device, including pseudonymous profiles. Further, if we know the identity of the consumer from the opt-out preference signal, we will also treat the opt-out preference signal as a valid request to opt out of Sale and Sharing for such consumer. Consumers may use opt-out preference signals by downloading or otherwise activating them for use on supported browsers and setting them to send opt-out preference signals to websites they visit. However, our sites do not respond to the “Do Not Track” signal, which is different from the opt-out preference signals described above.
Non-Retaliation: You have the right not to receive discriminatory treatment for the exercise of these rights. For example, we will not make hiring, firing, promotional, or disciplinary decisions, or otherwise retaliate against you, as a result of you exercising your data subject rights.
We may update this California Applicant Notice from time to time and will provide notice of such changes by updating the “Last Updated” date listed on this California Applicant Notice. If required by applicable law, we will provide you with additional notice if we make a material change to the California Applicant Notice, for example, by sending you an email or posting a banner on our careers portal.
