Working with suppliers

We work with a number of suppliers, who process data on our behalf. These include cloud storage providers, email service providers, and third parties who we may ask to obtain references or undertake pre-employment checks on our behalf.

We also use the talent platform, workable, to store the information that you provide to us. To find out more about how your data is kept secure, you can read about workable’s approach to GDPR compliance here: https://www.workable.com/gdpr

Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer by websites that you visit. They are widely used in order to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the owners of the site. We have included below a table, setting out what cookies we use, and the purposes for which we use them.

Most web browsers allow some control of most cookies through the browser settings. To find out more about cookies, including how to see what cookies have been set and how to manage and delete them, visit www.aboutcookies.org or www.allaboutcookies.org

Transferring your data

We may transfer your data outside the European Economic Area (the “EEA“).

Some of those countries have a European Commission adequacy decision, which means they are considered to offer an adequate level of data protection.

Other countries do not have the same level of legal protection as countries in the EEA, or with an adequacy decision. If we do transfer your data in this way, we will take steps to ensure that it is protected to the same levels that apply in the EEA. This may include, for example, ensuring that the organisation receiving the data is registered with the EU-US Privacy Shield (in the case of transfers to the USA), or that we use the EU’s model contractual clauses.

Storing your data

We have a data retention policy, which clearly sets out how long we keep data for, and for what reasons.

We will keep your data only for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purpose/s for which it was collected in the first place, i.e. as set out in this notice.

For example, if you apply to one of our job vacancies, we will keep your personal information for a period of 12 months from the date of our decision for compliance purposes, to enable us to contact you in relation to your application.
