Patterned is built to support workforce programs, employers, and public-sector partners that require clarity around data use and accountability. This page outlines how we approach trust at a practical level.
Data handling
Patterned stores and processes candidate and organization data to support workforce placement, matching, and outcome tracking.
Data is:
- Used only for the purposes of the program or employer relationship
- Never sold or shared with third parties for marketing
- Accessed only by authorized users within the platform
Access and permissions
Access to data is role-based by design.
- Organizations control the candidate data they upload
- Employers only see candidates explicitly shared with them
- Users only access data relevant to their role
This structure helps prevent accidental exposure and keeps responsibilities clear.
Auditability
Key actions on the platform are logged and attributable.
This supports transparency for:
- Workforce programs
- Employer partners
- Public-sector and grant-funded initiatives
Security practices
Patterned follows standard security practices appropriate for an early-stage production platform, including:
- Secure authentication
- Encrypted data in transit
- Principle-of-least-access permissions
Security practices evolve as the platform scales.
Responsible disclosure
If you believe you've found a security issue, we want to hear about it.
Please report concerns responsibly so we can address them quickly.
