Draft for review. This page was prepared in good faith and has not yet been reviewed by a qualified legal adviser. RECRUITERCLICK LTD will update it following that review.
Who is responsible for your information
RECRUITERCLICK LTD (company number 12012771) is the controller of the information you submit when you register as a candidate. Contact us at info@recruiterclick.com or Armadillo Mumb#92963, 8 Parkway Avenue, Sheffield, United Kingdom, S9 4WA.
When we introduce you to an employer with your agreement, that employer becomes a separate controller of the information we share with them, and its own privacy notice will apply.
What we collect
Through our Upload CV form we collect:
- your name, email address, town or city and country of residence;
- professional information: current job title, employment status, years of experience, most recent employer, education level, qualifications, industry and skills (some of these are optional);
- job preferences: desired role, industry, location, country, employment type, work arrangement, and optionally salary expectations, availability and willingness to relocate;
- your CV, and any summary, message, LinkedIn profile or portfolio link you choose to include;
- a record of when you submitted the form, the version of this notice shown to you, and whether you opted in to future opportunity emails.
We do not ask for your date of birth, full home address, passport or national identification numbers at registration. If an employer later requires right-to-work or other checks for a specific role, we will explain what is needed and why at that stage.
How we use your information and our lawful basis
| Purpose | Lawful basis |
|---|---|
| Reviewing your profile and CV and matching you to suitable opportunities | Steps taken at your request before entering into an arrangement with us, and our legitimate interests in providing recruitment services to candidates and employers. |
| Contacting you about specific roles you may be suited to | Legitimate interests. You asked us to consider you for opportunities, and you can tell us to stop at any time. |
| Introducing you to a prospective employer for a specific role | Legitimate interests, and only after we have told you about the role. |
| Sending occasional emails about future opportunities and recruitment news | Consent, given through the separate optional tick box. You can withdraw at any time. |
| Keeping records to meet legal obligations and to handle complaints or legal claims | Legal obligation, and legitimate interests in establishing or defending legal claims. |
Submitting your CV is not conditional on agreeing to marketing emails. We do not make recruitment decisions about you based solely on automated processing.
Sensitive information
We do not ask for special category information, such as information about health, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation or trade union membership, or for criminal record information. Please do not include it in your CV or messages unless you want us to know it, for example to arrange reasonable adjustments for an interview. If you do share it, we will use it only for that purpose and only where the law allows.
Sharing your information with employers
We will not send your CV or details to an employer without first telling you about the specific opportunity. We share only the information that is relevant to the role. We also use service providers, such as our hosting and email providers, who process information on our behalf under contract.
Future opportunities emails
If you ticked the optional box, we may email you occasionally about career opportunities and recruitment news. Every email will explain how to opt out, or you can email info@recruiterclick.com at any time.
How long we keep your information
Your candidate record and CV are deleted automatically 12 months after you submit them. If you would like to stay registered after that, you are welcome to submit an updated CV. You can ask us to delete your information sooner at any time. If you are introduced to an employer, that employer will keep its own records under its own retention policy. See our Data Retention Policy.
Security
Your CV is checked when you upload it, stored privately under a randomly generated name, and is never available through a public web address. Only authorised members of our team can view or download candidate records, after signing in. Access is logged.
Your rights
You can ask us to give you a copy of your information, correct it, delete it, restrict how we use it, or stop using it for a particular purpose. You can also withdraw your consent to emails about future opportunities. Email info@recruiterclick.com. We will respond within one month. There is normally no charge. More detail is in our Privacy Notice and on our Data Protection (GDPR) page.
We never charge candidates a fee for finding them work.
Complaints
If you have concerns about how we handle your information, please contact us first using our Complaints Procedure. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the supervisory authority for data protection in the United Kingdom, on 0303 123 1113 or through its website.
