DM&P Student Privacy Policy

Version 1.0. Last updated 11/12/2026.

This policy explains what personal information Dedicated to the Mission & Purpose LLC ("DM&P," "we," "us") collects from students, how we use and share it, and the choices you have. It applies to students who apply to our candidate pool, students who book career coaching, and anyone who submits a form on dedicatedmp.com.

Summary in plain English

  • We collect what you give us (your profile, resume and preferences) and basic website data.

  • We use it to match you with engineering employers and to run our coaching service.

  • Employers first see an anonymized profile. Your name, resume and contact details go to an employer only after you say yes to an introduction with that employer.

  • We do not sell your personal information.

  • You can ask us to correct or delete your information, or leave the candidate pool, at any time.

  • You must be 18 or older to join the candidate pool.

1. Information we collect

What you give us. When you apply to the candidate pool, use our forms, or book coaching, we may collect:

  • Your name, school email, personal email and phone number

  • Your school, major, class year and expected graduation date

  • Your GPA range, if you choose to share it

  • Your resume, coursework, projects and skills

  • The roles, industries and locations you are interested in, and when you are available

  • Your work authorization status, limited to a simple answer such as authorized to work in the U.S., or would need sponsorship

  • Notes from our screening conversation and coaching sessions

  • Your messages to us, and records of the permissions you give us

What we collect automatically. When you visit our website, our website platform may collect information such as your device and browser type, pages viewed, and approximate location, using cookies and similar technologies.

What we get from employers. If we introduce you to an employer, the employer may tell us whether you were interviewed, received an offer, accepted it, and your start date.

What we do not want. Please do not send us your Social Security number, government ID numbers, bank or card details, health information, or other highly sensitive information. We do not need it. If you buy coaching, a payment processor handles your payment details, and we do not store full card numbers.

2. How we use your information

  • To decide whether you fit an employer's requirements and to create an anonymized Candidate Profile

  • To contact you about opportunities, schedule screening calls and coaching, and answer your questions

  • To introduce you to an employer, but only after you give permission for that employer

  • To keep records of introductions, offers and hires, which we need to run our business and invoice employers

  • To provide and improve coaching, our website and our services

  • To protect our business, prevent fraud and abuse, and follow the law

We do not use your information to make decisions about you that have legal or similarly significant effects by automated means alone. A person at DM&P reviews every match.

3. How we share your information

Employers.

  • Before your permission: an employer that has sent us a job order sees only an anonymized Candidate Profile, which includes your major, class year, GPA range, coursework and projects, availability, general location, work authorization status and our screening note. It does not include your name or contact details.

  • After your permission: if you agree to an introduction with a specific employer, we share what that employer needs to contact and evaluate you, such as your name, email and resume. We ask each employer to use that information only to consider you for employment, to keep it confidential, and to delete it on request if you are not hired.

Service providers. We use vendors that help us run DM&P, such as our website host, email and form tools, cloud storage, e-signature and payment services godaddy and squarespace. They may use your information only to provide services to us and must protect it.

Legal and safety reasons. We may disclose information if the law requires it, to respond to valid legal requests, or to protect the rights, safety or property of DM&P, our users or others.

Business changes. If DM&P is involved in a merger, sale or similar transaction, your information may transfer to the new owner, who must honor this policy.

With your consent. We share your information in other ways only when you ask or agree.

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising [Attorney: confirm against the tools actually installed on the site].

4. Your choices and rights

You can:

  • Ask what information we hold about you and get a copy

  • Ask us to correct anything that is wrong

  • Ask us to delete your information, or to remove you from the candidate pool

  • Withdraw permission for a future introduction at any time

  • Opt out of marketing emails using the unsubscribe link or by emailing us

To make a request, email support@dedicatedmp.com. We may need to confirm it is you. We respond within 45 days, and tell you if we need more time. If you leave the pool, we stop matching you right away. Information already shared with an employer after your permission is in that employer's hands, so tell us if you want us to ask that employer to delete it. We may keep limited records we are required or permitted to keep, such as a record of an introduction we made.

If you live in a state with a privacy law that gives you additional rights, we will honor those rights as the law requires. If we deny a request, you can appeal by replying to our decision, and you may contact your state attorney general if you are still not satisfied.

5. How long we keep your information

We keep your candidate pool information while you are active and for 24 months after your last activity, then delete it. We keep coaching records for 24 months after your last session. We keep records of introductions, offers, hires and employer invoices for as long as we need them to run our business and meet legal and tax requirements. You can ask us to delete your information sooner, subject to the exceptions in Section 4.

6. How we protect your information

We use reasonable safeguards, including limiting access to people who need it, using trusted vendors, and storing information in access-controlled systems. No system is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security. If a breach affects your information, we will notify you and regulators as the law requires.

7. Age requirement

The candidate pool is for students who are 18 or older. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If we learn that we have, we will delete it. If you think a minor has given us information, email us.

8. Education records

DM&P is not a school and does not receive your education records from your school. Information about your grades and coursework is what you choose to tell us. We ask for a GPA range, not a transcript.

9. Links to other sites

Our website may link to other sites, such as LinkedIn or Instagram. We are not responsible for their privacy practices, and their policies apply to what you do there.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy. We will post the new version here with a new "last updated" date, and we will email you about material changes that affect how we use or share your information.
