This policy:
We collect the information necessary to identify available and relevant opportunities and any additional information needed to assess your eligibility through the different stages of the search process.
This information includes CVs, identification documents, educational records, work history, employment history and references and any other information that is provided by you throughout the course of the search.
We may also collect sensitive personal data about you, in the form of visa status, nationality, gender, and compensation details. We only collect sensitive personal data from you, and further process this data, where you have given your explicit consent.
When registering on our site, as appropriate, you may be asked to enter your name, email address, mailing address, phone number or other details to help you with your experience.
The following are the different sources we may collect personal data about you from:
We use your personal data to match your skills, experience and education with a potential employer. We will initially collect basic information on you such as contact details, job title, role and experience and then pass this on to the client in search of personnel. If you are chosen by the client and go through to the next stage of the process, we will proceed in collecting more information about you at the interview stage and moving forward in the process.
We only retain your information for as long as is necessary for us to fulfil those requirements outlined above, or to comply with our legal obligations. Please be advised that we may retain some of your information after you cease using our services if this is necessary to meet our legal obligations, for example retaining the information for tax and accounting purposes. When determining the relevant retention periods, we will consider factors including: (a) our contractual obligations and rights in relation to the information involved; (b) legal obligation(s) under applicable law to retain data for a certain period of time; (c) our legitimate interest where we have carried out a balancing test (see legal basis below); (d) statute of limitations under applicable law(s); (e) (potential) disputes; (f) if you have made a request to have your information deleted; and (g) guidelines issued by relevant data protection authorities. Otherwise, we securely erase your information once this is no longer needed.
Donoma Advisors has set a five-year time frame for processing and holding data (beginning January 1st 2020). If there has been no communication between a data subject and Donoma Advisors in more than said time frame, then all records associated with that data subject will be deleted from the database. Donoma Advisors plans to review the data retention policy, as well as the five-year retention period for non-communicated data subjects on a regular and recurring basis in order to ensure general compliance. If you would like more information for specifics, or on the steps we are taking to clean the data we hold, please contact the data protection office at: dataprotection@donoma-advisors.com.
Donoma Advisors communicates your personal data to clients who wish to hire for a position that may be relevant to you. We may also use that personal data to inform you about key trends in the marketplace that can increase your awareness about your industry. We provide our services to organisations within the Business, Legal & Professional Services, Financial Institutions and Technology Industries. Personal data that is classified as non-sensitive is also available for viewing by any Donoma Advisors employee or associate.
We will share information only as outlined within this privacy policy and wherever appropriate, try to limit disclosure to information in aggregated form, to avoid or limit identifying you personally. We may also conduct checks on you to verify the information you have provided and where we do this we share your information with only the data protection team within the operations group of Donoma Advisors.
For prospective candidates, referees and clients, our legitimate interest in your information is driven by the need to assess suitability for potential roles, to find potential candidates, to build insight into our relevant markets, and to contact clients and referees.
We carry out a ‘balancing test’ to ensure that our processing is necessary and that your fundamental rights of privacy are not outweighed by our legitimate interests before we go ahead with such processing. We keep a record of these balancing tests. You have a right to and can find out more about the information in these balancing tests by contacting us using the details below.
If you are shortlisted 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. We will always ask for your consent before recording sensitive data.
If you do not provide the personal data necessary or withdraw your consent for the processing of your personal data, we may not be able to match you with available job opportunities or provide you with any relevant market intelligence.
We may make automated decisions about you during the assessment stage of the recruitment process. We put assessment candidates through a structured screening process to assess whether each candidate meets the specific criteria for a position. These assessments may be fully automated, for example online pre-screening tests. As these assessments may result in a candidate being deemed not suitable for a position by means of a solely automated assessment, we only undertake this activity with the candidate’s explicit consent. We also carry out personality profiling on candidates with the candidate’s consent when the client requests that information as part of the interview process. To find out more about how we safeguard your information as related to transfers contact us on: dataprotection@donoma-advisors.com..
We invest in resources to protect your personal information, from loss, misuse, unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. However, no internet-based site can be 100% secure and so we cannot be held responsible for unauthorised or unintended access that is beyond our control.
By law, you have rights when it comes to protecting your personal data. Further information and advice about your rights can be obtained from the data protection regulator in your country.
You have the right to be provided with transparent, coherent information about how we use your data and your rights in relation to the use of your data. That is the purpose of this privacy policy.
You have the right to obtain access to your information (if we’re processing it), and certain other information (like 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.
You are entitled to have your information corrected if it is inaccurate or incomplete.
This enables you to request the deletion or removal of your information where there is no compelling reason for us to continue using it. There are exceptions to the right to erasure.
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. A note will be made on your record to ensure the restriction is respected in the future.
You have rights to obtain and reuse your personal data for your own purposes across different services. For example if you decide to switch to a new provider, this enables you to move, copy or transfer your information easily between our IT systems and theirs safely and securely, without affecting its usability.
You have the right to object to certain types of processing, including processing for direct marketing (i.e. if you no longer want to be contacted with potential opportunities).
You have the right to lodge a complaint about the way we handle or process your personal data with your national data protection regulator.
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.
We will act on requests and provide a detailed report of your information free of charge and will ask that you submit these requests by emailing: dataprotection@donoma-advisors.com..
