Your Data Protection Rights

We process your data under a legitimate interests basis:

• As a client, we believe that you will need suitable contractors for your roles, and

• As a website visitor, we believe you will want a continually improving service.

We don’t believe that any of these processing activities will impact your rights and freedoms as individuals. However, under this basis, you have several rights with respect to your data:

Right to be informed: This privacy policy sets out how we will use your data. If you require any more information, please contact us.

Right to access: The information we hold on you has been given to us by you and occasionally collected via professional networks, such as Linkedin. You have the right to ask what data we hold about you. If you would like to exercise this right, please contact us and we will respond to you within 30 days.

Right to rectification: On each interaction with you we will confirm that the current data we hold is correct. However, if you believe that what we hold is incorrect, please contact us and we will rectify it as soon as possible.

Right to erasure: You have the right so ask us to delete all data we hold on you. If you would like to exercise this right, please contact us. We will confirm when your data has been deleted, which will be within 30 days. Data held due to a legal obligation cannot be deleted, but will be subject to our retention policy.

Rights to data portability: You have right to request transfer of your data to another provider. If required, we will provide data as in the ‘right to access’ above.

Occasionally, we also process your data due to our legal obligations.

Retention of your data

We understand our legal duty to only retain personal data for as long as we need it for our legitimate business interests and that you are happy for us to do so. Therefore, we have a data retention policy that applies to your data.

In the majority of cases, we will delete your data when we have had no contact with you for 6 years. This may be longer if required for if the law or relevant regulators require. After this period, it is likely your data will no longer be relevant for the purposes for which it was collected.

When we no longer need your personal data, we will securely delete or destroy it. We will also consider if and how we can minimise over time the personal data that we use, and if we can anonymise your personal data so that it can no longer be associated with you or identify you, in which case we may use that information without further notice to you.

Changes to Privacy Policy

Our Privacy Policy may change from time to time and any changes to the statement will be communicated to you by way of an e-mail or a notice on our website.
