Data retention
Your data will be stored on our recruitment database and will be deleted when no longer needed, in line with our Data Retention and Data Destruction Policy. With the aim of establishing a long-term working relationship with you, your data could be kept on our systems for a period of up to five years. We will make regular contact with you and will continually seek your consent to retain your data. You are free to opt out at any time.
Data transfer outside of the EEA
In some circumstances it may be necessary to outsource the processing of your data to suppliers based outside of the EEA for the purpose of fulfilling contractual obligations. This is done with the privacy and safety of your data at the forefront of our decision making, and any supplier that we work with will need to demonstrate the highest level of compliance with GDPR. We will put in place Standard Contractual Clauses, as approved by the EU Commission, for the transfer of personal data to processors established in third countries which do not ensure an adequate level of data protection, along with additional legal agreements and organisational and technical measures.
Who do we share this information with
We may share personal data with other parties in the course of our duties. When this is done, we adhere to the following principles:
- The transfer is based on a legal obligation, the performance of a contract, or explicit consent.
- Where data is transferred to another party, we ensure appropriate technical and organisational safeguards are used to protect your personal data.
- Where we engage a third party to provide a service to us, we ensure the provider has taken appropriate technical and organisational measures to process, store and safeguard your personal data.
- As a Data Controller, we will not sell your data to any third party and will take all appropriate steps to ensure the security of your data in dealings with third parties.
- While the parties we engage may change occasionally, we believe it is important you are aware of the types of parties we share data with:
- Government departments, bodies or agencies, local authorities and police services.
- Potential employers and hirers, to assist the candidate in finding a new role, when you have given us your permission to do so.
- Third-party companies that provide reference and background checking services, medical checking companies and similar, when you have given us your permission to do so.
- This is a non-exhaustive list but indicates the parties we share data with.
