We share your personal information with trusted third parties where we have retained them to provide services that you or our clients have requested, such as referencing, qualification and criminal reference checking services (as required), verification of the details you have provided from third party sources, psychometric evaluations or skills tests. These third parties comply with similar and equally stringent undertakings of privacy and confidentiality.

testing and development work on our business technology systems, research and mailing houses and function coordinators. These third parties comply with similar and equally stringent undertakings of privacy and confidentiality.

We share your personal information with our other Group companies (if any) for internal reasons, primarily for business and operational purposes. As we continue to develop our business, we may sell or purchase assets. If another entity acquires us or merges with us your personal information will be disclosed to such entity.

information is necessary for us to provide recruitment services to you, we may not be able to match you with available job opportunities.

Do we make automated decisions concerning you?

We sometimes make automated decisions about you during the assessment stage of the recruitment process. We put assessment candidates through a structured screening process to assess whether each candidate meets the specific criteria for a particular position. These assessments may be fully automated e.g., online pre-screening tests. As these assessments may result in a candidate being deemed not suitable for a position by means of a solely automated assessment, we only undertake this activity with the candidate’s explicit consent. We also carry out personality profiling on candidates with the candidate’s consent.

Do we transfer your personal information outside of our database?

We sometimes transfer limited personal information outside of our database to clients and colleagues, however the utmost is done to keep personal information confidential, and we strive to ensure that any personal information is only used appropriately. We will never sell your personal data to a thirdparty.

4. You are entitled to have your information corrected if it’s inaccurate or incomplete.

5. This is also known as “the right to be forgotten” and, in simple terms, enables you to request the deletion or removal of your information where there’s no compelling reason for us to keep using it. This is not a general right to erasure; there are exceptions.
