5. Where do we store and how do we ensure your data is safe?

We store your personal information electronically with restricted access. Our staff dealing with recruitment matters control the storage of your personal data records. We have security measures in place, which will ensure the confidentiality of the information contained. These measures will be reviewed over time and upgraded in line with technological developments and legal requirements.

6. How long do we record your data for?

We retain your information only for as long as is necessary for the purposes for which we process the information as set out in this policy. Records can be held on a variety of media (physical or electronic) and formats. Retention periods are determined based on the type of record, the nature of the record and activity and the legal or regulatory requirements that apply to those records. Generally speaking, we will keep your data for a period of 6 months from the date of the conclusion of the recruitment process with you. However, if you commence employment with us, the provisions of our employee privacy policy apply and personal data may be processed in accordance with that policy.

If you are an unsuccessful candidate you may in any event wish to retain your data on file in case of further opportunities that may arise with us in the future, in this case you can give your consent within the application process.

7. Our obligations to keep your data accurate and up to date

We are required to keep any data we hold accurate and up to date. You have a right to rectification (see below).

8. Disclosure and transfer of Data

In certain cases we may disclose to third parties information about you if we believe disclosure is in accordance with, or required by, any contractual relationship with you, applicable law, regulation or legal process. This may be when we seek to confirm a reference you have provided us as part of your CV for example.
