The Group is a recruitment business which provides work-finding services to its clients and work-seekers. The Group must process personal data (including Special Category personal data) so that it can provide these services – in doing so, The Group acts as a data controller.

You may give your personal details to The Group directly, such as on an application or registration form or via our website, or we may collect them from another source such as a jobs board. The Group must have a legal basis for processing your personal data. For the purposes of providing you with work-finding services and/or information relating to roles relevant to you we will only use your personal data in accordance with this privacy statement. At all times we will comply with current data protection laws.

1. Collection and use of personal data

a. Purpose of processing and legal basis

The Group will collect your personal data (which may include Special Category personal data) and will process your personal data for the purposes of providing you with work-finding services and related marketing. This includes for example, contacting you about job opportunities, assessing your suitability for those opportunities, updating our databases, putting you forward for job opportunities, arranging payments to you and developing and managing our services and relationship with you and our clients.

In some cases, we may be required to use your data for the purpose of investigating, reporting and detecting crime and also to comply with laws that apply to us. We may also use your information during the course of internal audits to demonstrate our compliance with certain industry standards.

The legal bases we rely upon to offer our work-finding services to you are:

  • Where we have a legitimate interest
  • To comply with a legal obligation that we have
  • To fulfil a contractual obligation that we have with you
  • Your consent
b. Consent 

The Group will seek your specific consent to process data relating to your health, our ability to undertake regular and ongoing status checks with the Disclosure and Barring Service and any criminal convictions. If you have opted-in we may also send you various company and sector news, career development advice and courses, and job alerts via email/ text. You can opt-out from receiving these at any time by clicking the link to The Group’s Preference Service when you receive these communications from us and changing your preferences.

c. Legitimate interest

This is where The Group has a legitimate reason to process your data provided it is reasonable and does not go against what you would reasonably expect from us. Where The Group has relied on a legitimate interest to process your personal data our legitimate interests are as follows:

  • Managing our database and keeping work-seeker records up to date
  • Providing work-finding services to you and our clients
  • Contacting you to seek your consent where we need it
  • To determine level of interaction with our pages in order to improve our services and interactions with you
  • Giving you information about similar products or services that you have used from us recently

    • To comply with the Safeguarding Vulnerable Groups Act 2006

    • Verify your right to work

Our clients may also require this personal data, and/or we may need your data to enter into a contract with you.

If you do not give us the personal data we need to collect then we will be unable to continue to provide work-finding services to you.

Automated decisions

We may use software to review the personal data of individuals recorded on our database, or who have applied for specific roles. The software may determine suitability for a specific role via targeted questions relating to the role, and/or may identify and select individual personal information according to the stored characteristics. For example, the software may enable us to quickly identify individuals from our database who have specific skills, e.g. an engineer and exclude individuals whose characteristics do not match particular requirements of a job role. Where we use software to assist us with our assessment of your suitability for a particular job role and you consider that any such assessment has been made wrongly or incorrectly, you may ask for an explanation.

 

3. Overseas Transfers

The Group may transfer the information you provide to us to countries outside the European Economic Area (‘EEA’) for the purposes of providing you with work-finding services. We will take steps to ensure adequate protections are in place to ensure the security of your information. The EEA comprises the EU member states plus Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein.

Data retention

The Group will retain your personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purpose we collect it. Different laws require us to keep different data for different periods of time. For example, the Conduct of Employment Agencies and Employment Businesses Regulations 2003, require us to keep work-seeker records for at least one year from (a) the date of their creation or (b) after the date on which we last provide you with work-finding services.

We must also keep your payroll records, holiday pay, sick pay and pensions auto-enrolment records for as long as is legally required by HMRC and associated national minimum wage, social security and tax legislation. This is currently 3 to 6 years. There is a legitimate interest to hold your personal data for no longer than 6 years after our work-finding service relationship ends. Where The Group has obtained your consent to process your personal data and Special Category data, we will do so in line with our retention policy.

Where consent is not granted The Group will cease to process your personal data and Special Category personal data. If you have any questions about our retention policy, you can email gdpr@humly.co.uk
