We may also share your personal data with any supervisory or any similar regulatory authority that is responsible for the enforcement of the Data Protection Law or another law enforcement authority upon their request.

DATA TRANSFER

We may transfer your personal data received on the basis of this Loftware Job Candidate Privacy Policy outside the European Union (EU) and European Economic Area (EEA) where the EU Commission has confirmed an adequate level of protection or where we can ensure the careful handling of personal data by means of suitable guarantees (such as valid EU Standard Contractual Clauses).

DATA SECURITY

We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorized way, altered or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need-to-know. They will only process your personal data on our instructions, and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality. Details of these measures may be obtained if you write to privacy@loftware.com

We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected data security breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a suspected breach where we are legally required to do so.

DATA RETENTION

How long will we process your personal data?

We will retain your data 6 months after we have communicated to you our decision about whether to appoint you to role or until the revocation of your consent. We retain your personal information for that period so that we can show, in the event of a legal claim, that we have not discriminated against candidates on prohibited grounds and that we have conducted the recruitment exercise in a fair and transparent way. After this period, we will securely destroy your personal information in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. In case your CV and application is still interesting for any suitable alternative roles that arise we ask you for your consent to retain it longer.

The candidate can revoke the consent at any time at privacy@loftware.com. 

If your application is successful, your personal data collected during the application and recruitment process will be transferred to and retained in our HR files where we keep employee information.

TALENT POOL

We are interested in staying in contact with you after the application and recruitment process is completed, on the basis that a further opportunity may arise in the future and we may wish to consider you for that. Therefore, in the application and recruitment process, we will ask you if you wish to stay in contact with us. Kindly note we can only stay in contact with you after the application and recruitment process is completed if you provide your consent. It is completely up to you to decide whether you wish to give us your consent for this. You may also choose to submit an application as a general inquiry.

If you choose to stay in contact with us we retain your personal data for a period of 18 months after the application and recruitment process has been completed. In case you submit your application as a general inquiry, we retain your personal data for a period of 18 months after the submission. After this period (or before once you withdraw your consent), your personal data will be securely anonymized or deleted in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations.

DATA SUBJECT'S RIGHTS

As a data subject under Data Protection Law you have a number of rights, including the right to:

If you want to review, verify, correct or request erasure of your personal data, object to the processing of your personal data, or request that we transfer a copy of your personal data to another party, please contact us in writing by sending an email to privacy@loftware.com

You have the right to withdraw your consent for processing of your personal data at any time (which will not affect the lawfulness of the processing before consent was withdrawn). To withdraw your consent, please contact us by sending an email to privacy@loftware.com

Once we have received notification that you have withdrawn your consent, we will no longer process your application and we will dispose promptly of (delete or anonymise) your personal data securely.
