How and why do we use your personal data?

We use your personal data so that we can provide our services to you, including to:

provide you with information about job vacancies and to assist you in finding a suitable position by matching your skills, experience and education with a potential employer. We will initially collect basic information on you such as contact details, job role and experience and then pass this on to the client in search of talent. If you are chosen by the client and go through to the next stage we will then be collecting more information from you at the interview (or equivalent) stage and onwards in that manner;
if you work for a client or a potential client looking to fill roles, to contact you about candidates and to share your contact details with a candidate, at interview stage and beyond;

How long do we keep your personal data for?

We only retain your information for as long as is necessary for us to use your information as described above or to comply with our legal obligations. However, please be advised that we may retain some of your information after you cease to use our services, for instance if this is necessary to meet our legal obligations, such as retaining the information for tax and accounting purposes. Otherwise, we erase your information once this is no longer needed. Where required by law, we will notify you when this has happened.

Information security

We invest in protecting your personal data, from loss, misuse, unauthorised access, modification, or disclosure. However, no system can be 100% secure, and so we cannot be held responsible for unauthorised or unintended access that is beyond our reasonable control.

What are your rights?

To be informed

You have the right to be provided with clear, transparent and easily understandable information about how we use your information and your rights. This is why we are providing you with the information in this Policy.

Access

You have the right to obtain access to your information (if we’re processing it), and certain other information (similar to that provided in this Privacy Policy). This is so you’re aware and can check that we’re using your information in accordance with data protection law.

Correction

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

To be forgotten

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.

To restrict processing

You have rights to ‘block’ or suppress further use of your information. When processing is restricted, we can still store your information, but may not use it further. We keep lists of people who have asked for further use of their information to be ‘blocked’ to make sure the restriction is respected in future.

Data portability

You have rights to obtain and reuse your personal data for your own purposes across different services.

To object to processing

You have the right to object to certain types of processing, including processing for direct marketing.

To lodge a complaint

You have the right to lodge a complaint about the way we handle or process your personal data with your national data protection regulator.

To withdraw consent

If you have given your consent to anything we do with your personal data, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time (although if you do so, it does not mean that anything we have done with your personal data with your consent up to that point is unlawful). This includes your right to withdraw consent to us using your personal data for marketing purposes.

Consent

By consenting to this privacy notice you are giving us permission to process your personal data specifically for the purposes identified.

Consent is required for Talent Build Solutions Limited to process personal and sensitive data, but it must be explicitly given. Where we are asking for sensitive data we will always tell you why and how the information will be used.

You may withdraw consent at any time or request a copy of personal information we hold by emailing Jocelyn.brown@talentbuild.co.uk

Disclosure

Talent Build Solutions Limited will not pass on your personal data to third parties without first obtaining your consent. Your personal data may be shared with certain third parties who will be subject to contractual obligations of confidentiality and compliance with relevant laws, including:

our clients who have a position to fill, in order to determine with the client whether you are a good fit for the available position.
prospective partners, clients and other reputable third parties to disclose aggregate statistics about our site visitors and candidates to describe our services and for other lawful purposes – in such cases these statistics will include no personal identifying information; and
if required to do so by law, a court order or by a regulatory authority of competent jurisdiction or if we believe that such action is necessary to protect, defend or enforce the rights of Talent Build Solutions Limited.

We will send you updates and relevant information via email, you can opt out at any time by emailing Jocelyn.brown@talentbuild.co.uk

What legal basis do we have for using your information?

For candidates, contractors, referees and clients as well as applicants to work for Talent Build Solutions Ltd, our processing is necessary for our legitimate interests. As a recruitment business and recruitment agency we introduce candidates to clients for permanent employment, temporary worker placements or independent professional contracts. The exchange of personal data of our candidates and our client contacts is a fundamental, essential part of this process in that we need the information to be able to assess suitability for potential roles, to find potential candidates and to contact clients and referees. In order to support our candidates’ career aspirations and our clients’ resourcing needs we require a database of candidate and client personal data containing historical information as well as current resourcing requirements. To maintain, expand and develop our business we need to record the personal data of prospective candidates and client contacts.

If you are interviewed and submitted as a candidate, then this may involve the processing of more detailed personal data including sensitive data such as health information that you or others provide about you. Such information may be required to perform/qualify for a certain function for which you want to apply based on national laws, which may provide the legal basis to process these data. In cases where there is no legal basis, we will ask for your express consent orally, by email or by an online process for the specific activity we require consent for and record your response. Where consent is the lawful basis for our processing you have the right to withdraw your consent to this particular processing at any time.

What happens if you do not provide us with the information we request or ask that we stop processing your information?

If you do not provide the personal data necessary, object to or withdraw your consent (where applicable) for the processing of your personal data, we may in individual cases not be able to match you with available job opportunities.

Do we make automated decisions concerning you?

No, we do not carry out automated profiling as there is human intervention in all our processing of personal data.

Using our websites – internet-based transfers

Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to our site; any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your information, we will use procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorised access.

IP addresses

We may collect information about your computer including where available your IP address, operating system and browser type for system administration and to analyse visitor trends and traffic on our website. This information is collected in aggregate form and does not identify individuals. It is not passed on to third parties.

Keeping our records accurate and up to date

Talent Build Solutions Ltd will review the personal data it processes to ensure that it is up to date and accurate. Your co-operation in helping us to keep your personal data accurate by informing us of any change of name or change of address is an important part of this. If you would like to review or change the details you have supplied us with, you may do so at any time by notifying us in writing.
