General Data Protection Regulation
How will we use your information?
The information you give us on the application form will be used to help us decide whether to recruit you as a member of staff - this is our ‘legitimate interest’ under data protection law. It will only be seen by staff involved in the recruitment process and will be stored securely.
If you are recruited, we will retain your contact information to involve and support you. We will also collect additional information, such as next of kin details, and over time records of training, support meetings and where relevant, appraisals. Again, it will be kept securely, and only those people who need to see your information to involve you will have access to it.
All use of applicant’s information will be relevant to their involvement, and may include:
Contacting applicants when necessary
Making reasonable adjustments to improve accessibility
Monitoring statistical details of our applicants
Providing ongoing support to applicants
Addressing problems or complaints
You have legal rights over your data, including access to it, and the right to ask that it is corrected, restricted or deleted. There is more information on these rights on the Information Commissioner’s Office website - www.ico.org.uk
