If you choose to provide this personal information, you consent to our using it for EEOC monitoring and reporting purposes and to share such information with applicable governmental authorities to the extent permitted under applicable law. This personal information will be held and stored anonymously and will not be used to evaluate your application for a position with us.

Use and Disclosure of Personal Information

By accessing our Career Site, you acknowledge and agree that:

• To the extent permitted by law, our Company is authorized to collect, use, access, transmit, store, process, and disclose the personal information it obtains through your use of our Career Site, including but not limited to the personal information you submit in connection with your job application, and/or any other personal information that is provided to us or is otherwise collected by us pursuant to the job application process.

We will use contractual clauses to ensure that your personal information is used and disclosed for the purposes for which it was collected and will be subject to the appropriate safeguards.

Data Security and Protection

We employ 128-bit encryption technology in all areas of our Career Site which require you to provide your personal information. The Career Site utilizes industry-standard firewalls and Transport Layer Security ("TLS") technology to allow for the encryption of potentially sensitive personal information, such as your name, address, and email address. The safety and security of your personal information also depends on you. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password for access to certain parts of our Career Site, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share your password with anyone. You should recognize, however, that no computer system is fully secure and that there are inherent risks associated with transmitting information over the Internet. Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information transmitted to or through our Career Site. Any transmission of personal information online is done at your own risk. We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on our Career Site. To make sure you have the latest security features on your browser, you may want to download the most recent version of your favorite browser.

Special Notice for California Residents

California residents may have additional rights under that state’s laws. Please see our "Candiate Privacy Notice for California Residents" for further information on our data processing activities and rights available to California residents.

Information for Canadian Residents

Global Industrial will process your personal information either pursuant to your consent (which may be express or implied) or where permitted under Canadian privacy laws, as applicable. If you choose to provide personal information to us, we will assume that you have implicitly consented to the processing of your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Notice.

We are permitted to collect, use, and/or disclose your personal information without your consent in the following instances:

• The collection is clearly in your interests and consent cannot be obtained in a timely way;
• When consent would compromise the availability or the accuracy of the personal information and the collection, use, and/or disclosure is reasonable for purposes related to investigating a breach of an agreement or a contravention of the laws of Canada or a province;
• When the personal information is contained in a witness statement and the collection, use, and/or disclosure of the personal information is necessary to assess, process or settle an insurance claim;
• The personal information was produced by you in the course of your employment, business or professional relationship with us, and the collection, use, and/or disclosure is consistent with the purposes for which the personal information was produced;
• The personal information is publicly available as defined under Canadian regulations, such as data in a public telephone directory, data in a professional or business directory, listing or notice that is available to the public, data in a registry where a right of public access is required by law, data in public court records, and data in a printed or electronic/online publication where you voluntarily made your personal information available to the publication;
• The personal information is used for the purpose of acting in an emergency that threatens the life, health, or security of an individual;
• When the collection, use, or disclosure of the personal information is required by law; and/or
• The personal information is disclosed to another party for a purpose permitted under Canadian privacy law.

If we are required to obtain your consent, we will provide you with full details of the personal information that we would like and the reason we need it, so that you can carefully consider whether you wish to grant your consent. You should be aware that your consent is voluntary, and it is not a condition of applying for a position with us that you agree to any request for consent from us. Also, please note that you can revoke your consent at any time for any processing activities where your consent is required. Yet, if you fail to provide certain personal information when requested and consent is not required, we may not be able to fully process your job application.

How to Exercise Your Rights

If you would like to exercise any of the rights described in the "Privacy Rights and Choices" section, above, please send a request to our Data Protection Officer at data.protection@globalindustrial.com. In your message, please indicate the right you would like to exercise and the personal information to which it relates. We will ask you for additional information to confirm your identity and for security purposes before disclosing any personal information requested to you. We will not fulfill your request if we are not able to verify your identity. We reserve the right to charge a fee where permitted by law, for instance if your request is manifestly unfounded or excessive. We will not always be able to fully address your request if, for example, it would affect the duty of confidentiality we owe to others, or if we are legally entitled to deal with the request in a different way.

Deletion Requests

Please also note that, with respect to deletion requests, we may not be able to ensure or guarantee complete and comprehensive removal of your personal information in all places and for all purposes. For example, we may not be able to fulfill your request due to federal or state laws or our internal policies may require maintenance of your personal information in our records. Please note that if the deletion request relates to personal information that we need to consider you for an open position with us, you may not be able to move forward with the job application process.

Opt-Out Rights

Please see our main Website Privacy Policy to learn more about how to exercise your opt out rights with respect to the sharing of personal information attributable to your device and your interactions with our Career Site for targeted advertising purposes.

Global Industrial's Candidate Privacy Notice for California Residents

Last Updated: February 25, 2026

This Candidate Privacy Notice for California Residents ("CCPA Notice") supplements the information contained in our main Candidate Privacy Notice for Global Equipment Company Inc. and its affiliates or subsidiaries (collectively, "Global Industrial", "Company", "we", or "us" or "our"), and applies solely to our job applicants and candidates who reside in the State of California ("candidates", "you" or "your"). This CCPA Notice is provided to comply with the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 ("CCPA") as it is amended from time to time. Any terms defined in the CCPA have the same meaning when used in this CCPA Notice.

Information We Collect

We collect information that identifies, relates to, describes, references, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular individual or household ("personal information"). Personal information does not include:

• Publicly available information.
• Deidentified or aggregated information.
• Information excluded from the CCPA's scope, like:
  • health or medical information covered by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 ("HIPAA") and the California Confidentiality of Medical Information Act ("CMIA"), clinical trial data, or other qualifying research data; and
  • personal information covered by certain industry-specific privacy laws, including the Fair Credit Reporting Act ("FCRA"), the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act ("GLBA"), California Financial Information Privacy Act ("FIPA"), and the Driver’s Privacy Protection Act of 1994.

As described in the table below, we have collected the following categories of personal information from our candidates within the last twelve (12) months. Please note that not all categories or specific types of personal information described below will be collected or processed for every candidate and our data collection practices may vary based on how far you progress in the application process and what information you choose to provide to us.

In the last twelve (12) months, Global Industrial obtained the categories of personal information listed above from sources described in the "Personal Information We Collect" section in our main Candidate Privacy Notice.

Purposes for which We Use or Disclose Personal Information

In the last twelve (12) months, we may have used or disclosed your personal information for one or more of the purposes described in the "Use and Disclosure of Personal Information" section of our main Candidate Privacy Notice.

We will not collect additional categories of personal information or use the personal information we collected for materially different, unrelated, or incompatible purposes without providing notice to you.

Disclosures of Personal Information

We may disclose your personal information to a third party for a business purpose. When we disclose personal information for a business purpose, we enter into a contract with that party that describes the purpose of the data sharing, requires the recipient to keep the personal information confidential, and prohibits the recipient from using the disclosed information for any purpose except to perform its obligations under the contract.

In the preceding twelve (12) months, Global Industrial has disclosed the following categories of personal information for a business purpose:

Please see the "Use and Disclosure of Personal Information" section in our main Candiate Privacy Notice for further information on the categories of third parties that have received or had access to the personal information we disclosed and the purposes for such disclosure.

CCPA Disclosures

Data Retention Period: Over the past 12 months we have retained your personal information in accordance with the retention timeframes noted in the "Use and Disclosure of Personal Information" section in our main Candidate Privacy Notice.

Selling and/or Sharing of Personal Information for Targeted Advertising: In the preceding twelve (12) months, Global Industrial has not sold personal information connected to any personal information you have provided to us or that we have collected pursuant to our job application process.

However, with respect to the device and website activity data we collect when you interact with our Career Site, we used certain third-party online analytics and advertising providers which may have access to your IP address and online activity information for purposes of sending you targeted advertising based on your browsing behavior on our Career Site and elsewhere online. As a California resident, such access may be considered "Selling" or "Sharing" your personal information under the CCPA. Please see our main Website Privacy Policy for more information on how our Company shares personal information for targeted advertising purposes. If you wish to opt out of sharing for targeted advertising purposes, please click on our "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" button on our homepage and fill out the information requested in the opt out form.

Sensitive Personal Information Processing Activities: Over the past 12 months, we did not use or disclose your sensitive personal information for purposes of inferring characteristics about you in any way that would grant you a right to limit such use or sharing.

Profling / Automated Decisionmaking Activities: Over the past 12 months, we did not use automated decisionmaking tools to conduct profiling activities or make decisions about you based on your personal information.

Notice of Financial Incentive: Over the past 12 months, we did not provide you or other candidates with a financial incentive under the CCPA in exchange for collecting, using, or disclosing any personal information.

Your Rights and Choices

The CCPA provides California residents with specific rights to make requests regarding their personal information. This section describes your rights to make certain requests under the CCPA and explains how to exercise those rights.

Right to Know: You have the right to request that we disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your personal information over the past 12 months. Once we receive and verify your identity or authority to make the applicable privacy request, we will disclose to you as required under applicable law (and subject to relevant legal exceptions):

• The categories of personal information we collected about you.
• The sources from which the personal information was collected.
• Our business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling that personal information.
• The categories of third parties with whom we share that personal information.
• The specific pieces of personal information we collected about you and the right to receive such information in a transmittable format (also called a data portability request).
• Two separate lists including the following information, to the extent we sold, shared (for targeted advertising), or disclosed your personal information for a business purpose:
  • sales activities, identifying the personal information categories that each category of recipient purchased; and
  • disclosures for a business purpose, identifying the personal information categories that each category of recipient obtained.

Right to Correct or Modify Personal Information: You have the right to request that we correct any inaccurate personal information we maintain about you.

Right to Deletion: You have the right to request that we delete personal information which we have collected from you and retain, subject to certain exceptions. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable privacy request, we will delete (and direct our service providers to delete) your personal information from our records, unless an exception applies that allows or requires us to retain your personal information.

For example, we may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service provider(s) to:

• Take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you or to perform our contract with you;
• Detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities;
• Debug products to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality;
• Exercise free speech, ensure the right of another individual to exercise their free speech rights, or exercise another right provided for by law;
• Comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code § 1546 et. seq.);
• Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with a candidate’s expectations based on your relationship with us;
• Comply with a legal obligation; or
• Make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.

Right of Non-Discrimination: We will not discriminate against you for exercising any rights related to your personal information under the CCPA.

Exercising Your Rights: To exercise your rights under the CCPA, please follow the instructions in the "How to Exercise Your Rights" section in our main Candidate Privacy Notice. Please note that you may only make a verifiable privacy request for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period. We will acknowledge receipt of your request within ten (10) business days and endeavor to respond to a verifiable privacy request within forty-five (45) days of receipt. If we require more time (up to another forty-five (45) days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing. We will deliver our written response by mail or electronically. Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the verifiable privacy request's receipt. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your personal information that is readily usable and should allow you to transmit your personal information from one entity to another entity without hindrance. We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable privacy request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.

Changes to Our Privacy Policy / Contact Information

We reserve the right to amend this CCPA Notice at our discretion and at any time as may be described in the "Updates To This Privacy Notice" section in our main Candidate Privacy Notice. Please see the "Contact Information" section in our main Candidate Privacy Notice if you would like to reach out to us.
