What personal data do we collect about you?

We collect the information necessary to be able to find available opportunities and further information needed to assess your eligibility through the different stages of recruitment. This information includes CVs, identification documents, educational records, work history, employment and references.

How and why we use your personal data?

 

 

 

We use your personal data to match your skills, experience and education with potential career opportunities. We will initially collect basic information on you such as name, job role, employer and basic contact details (where publicly available). At the next stage we will collect further information from you directly once we have made contact and established an interest from both parties in pursuing the career opportunity further. We will then be collecting more information from you at the interview (or equivalent) stage and onwards in that manner.

How long do we keep your personal data for?

We only retain your information for as long as is necessary for us to use your information as described above or to comply with our legal obligations. However, please be advised that we may retain some of your information after you cease to use our services, for instance if this is necessary to meet our legal obligations, such as retaining the information for tax and accounting purposes.

When determining the relevant retention periods, we will take into account factors including:

a) our contractual obligations and rights in relation to the information involved;

b) legal obligation(s) under applicable law to retain data for a certain period of time;

c) statute of limitations under applicable law(s);

d) (potential) disputes;

e) if you have made a request to have your information deleted; and

f)  guidelines issued by relevant data protection authorities.

Otherwise, we securely erase your information once this is no longer needed.

What legal basis do we have for using your information?

For prospective candidates, interim managers, referees and clients, our processing is necessary for our legitimate interests in that we need the information in order to be able to assess suitability for potential roles, to find potential candidates and to contact clients and referees. If you are shortlisted as a candidate, our further processing of more detailed personal data (for example, CVs, identification documents, education records, work history, interview notes and references) is necessary for our legitimate interests in that we need to complete the recruitment process.

In the event that we need to process any sensitive data such as health information that you or others provide about you, we always ask for your consent before undertaking such processing.

For clients, we may also rely on our processing being necessary to perform a contract for you, for example in contacting you.

What happens if you do not provide us with the information we request or ask that we stop processing your information?

If you do not provide the personal data necessary, or withdraw your consent for the processing of your personal data, we may not be able to match you with available job opportunities.
