⚠️ Data Privacy - Please Read Carefully
When you use this MCP server, your Recruit CRM data is sent to the AI assistant you're using (e.g. Claude, ChatGPT). This means:
Candidate profiles, names, email, phone, job history, hiring stage, etc. will be exposed to the AI provider so that it can assist with the data.
Company and contact data, job details, notes, and call logs may also be exposed depending on what you ask.
The AI provider processes this data on their servers according to their own privacy and data retention policies.
What you should check before using:
Most AI providers (including Claude) have a data retention period - typically around 30 days for conversation data, though this varies by plan and provider. Always check the latest policies directly on their official websites:
If your team or organization has data residency, GDPR, or other compliance requirements, confirm that using an AI assistant with live recruitment data is permitted.
Use good judgment about what you query - only ask for data that's necessary for the task at hand.
By using this tool, you accept responsibility for ensuring its use complies with your organization's data policies and applicable regulations.
