What information does the Company collect and process?

The Company collects and processes a range of personal information (personal data) about you. Personal data means any information about an individual from which the person can be identified. This includes:

The Company collects this information in a variety of ways during the application and recruitment process. For example, data may be contained in application forms and CVs, obtained from identity documents, such as your passport and collected through interviews online tests and assessment tests.

In some cases, the Company collects personal data about you from third parties, such as references supplied by former employers.

Data is stored in an Applicant Tracking System – Workable, including the Company’s email system.

Why does the Company process personal data?

The Company needs to process data prior to entering into a contract with you. We also need to process data to enter into an employment contract with you and to meet our obligations under that employment contract.

The Company has a legitimate interest in processing personal data during the recruitment process and in keeping records of that process.  Processing such data from job applicants enables the Company to manage the recruitment process, assess the suitability of candidates and make informed decision as to whom we wish to recruit.  The Company may also have to process data from job applicants in order to defend legal claims. 

If you fail to provide personal information 

You are under no obligation to provide the Company with data during the recruitment process.  However, if you do not prove certain information when requested, the Company may not be able to process your application for employment properly or at all. 

You are under no obligation to provide information for equal opportunities monitoring purposes and there are no consequences for you if this information is not provided.

For how long do you keep data?

The Company will only hold your personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which we collected it.  If your application for employment is unsuccessful, the Company will hold your data on file for 6 months after the end of the recruitment process. At the end of that period, your data is deleted or destroyed.

If your application for employment is successful, personal data gathered during the recruitment process will be transferred to your personnel file and we shall issue a new privacy notice which sets down the periods for which your data will be held.

Who has access to data?

Your information will be shared internally for the purposes of the recruitment process, including with members of the HR team, interviewers, etc.

The Company will not share your data with third parties unless we make you an offer of employment.  In those circumstances, the Company shall share your data with third parties where required by law and where it is necessary in order to administer the working relationship with you or where we have another legitimate interest in doing so.

How does the Company protect data?

The Company takes the security of your data seriously. The Company has internal policies and controls in place to prevent your data being lost, accidentally destroyed, misused or disclosed, and is not accessed except by its employees in the performance of their duties.

  • ask the Company to suspend the processing of your personal data for a period of time if data is inaccurate or there is a dispute about its accuracy or the reason for processing it.
