Accountability
Dalton Chemical Laboratories is responsible for all personal information under its control, including any personal information that is transferred to third parties for processing, storage or other purposes.

Identifying Purposes
We will only collect and use personal information about our applicants to identify them and to communicate with them in terms of job opportunities with Dalton Chemical Labs. We will not disclose any personal information concerning our applicants to anyone else and we will not permit anyone else to use personal information about an applicant for any purpose without the applicant's consent.

Limiting Use, Disclosure, and Retention
Personal information will not be used or disclosed for purposes other than those for which it was collected, except, as previously stated, with the consent of the individual or as required by law. Personal information will be retained only as long as necessary to fulfill the identified purposes. We may share your personal information with unaffiliated third parties.
