Specifically, this privacy policy provides you with details about the personal information we collect and hold about you, how we use your personal information and your rights regarding your personal information.
It does not cover any use of your personal information by:
The core of what we do is twofold.
Firstly, it is to provide services to help candidates develop their careers. We do this through assessing and matching people with potential job opportunities, as well as providing wider services to help them in their careers, such as invitations to networking events and opportunities to take part in research.
Secondly, we work with clients to provide recruitment, consultancy and outsourcing services to help them solve recruitment, talent, technology and other related challenges.
This privacy policy applies to the ollection, storage and use of personal information collected by Team4Talent ("we" or "us"):
Candidates:the personal information we collect about you where "you" are a candidate or placed consultant.
Team4Talent aims to collect the minimum data it needs to perform its role. Typically, this is name, address, job title and contact details. In addition, if you are a candidate being considered for a role it may also include your CV / resume as well as other details about your skills and experience.
We may also collect other personally identifiable data, for instance we may be engaged in equal opportunity monitoring, or need information to complete a contract for you or our client. This data can include age, identity card number, passport number, driver license number, address, email address, user ID and passwords, gender, date of birth, marital status, occupation, income range, bank account details, financial information, contact information such as telephone, mobile, nationality, personal website or social media links or other data which may be required by local regulations.

Referees and emergency contacts : we collect basic contact details (such as name, title, address, email and tel) so that we can contact you for a reference or as an emergency contact for one of our candidates/or contractors.
Client contacts: the personal information we collect about you where "you" are a contact at one of our clients or at a Managed Service Provider, umbrella company or personal service company involved in the supply of a person's services to a hirer.
We need to collect information about you as an essential part of providing our Services.
We may collect personal information about you when:
we will usually collect the following information from or about you:
We use the data we gather to perform a number of tasks, including:
Client contacts: We use the information collected from clients to ensure
that we provide business services to you. This will involve identifying candidates
that will meet your requirements, or providing other business services from our
portfolio.
Suppliers: we use the data collected to ensure the business arrangements between us run smoothly.
Referees and emergency contacts: we use the data collected to contact you for a reference or to contact you as a candidate's emergency contact in the event of an accident or other emergency.
Our lawful basis for processing your data: we consider that it is necessary for our legitimate interests as a recruitment business to process your personal data. At different stages in the recruitment processes we also have other lawful grounds for processing your data such as compliance with our legal obligations and where it is necessary for the performance of contracts related to the recruitment process.
A full statement of our legitimate interest may be found here.
We think you will have an expectation that if you are looking for employment or have posted your CV or other professional information on a job board or professional networking site, that you are happy for us to collect and use your personal data to provide our recruitment services to you and to share that information with prospective employers.
During the recruitment process the client may want additional information (such as the results from psychometric evaluations or skills tests) or to confirm your references, qualifications and criminal record, where appropriate and in accordance with local laws. We may also need to use your personal information for internal administrative purposes, such as contract administration, payroll and invoicing. We also have our own obligations under law and we may be required to share your data in connection with those legal requirements.
Where we are required by law to obtain your consent to the processing of your personal data we will obtain it.

The exchange of personal data of our candidates and client contacts is an essential part of what we do as a recruitment business and, as such, it is in our legitimate interests to process your data for such purpose.
In the case of contacts at umbrella companies and personal service companies this allows you to be contacted to receive, on behalf of your employer, details of current and future assignments, related timesheet data and payment details.
We do not believe that this storage and use of your personal information will unduly prejudice your rights or freedoms.

Harvey Nash is a global company and to effectively provide the best service to our clients we may utilise a business processing outsourcing (BPO) service in Vietnam to help identify candidates for potential roles. This service helps us to respond more quickly to client services by identifying potential candidates and sending this information back to the responsible consultant. The BPO we use is run by a part of the Harvey Nash Group called Nash Tech. We have ensured that we have an appropriate business relationship to ensure privacy of your data.
We may send your information between Harvey Nash entities which may exist outside of Europe, to overseas clients or to clients within your country who may in turn transfer your data internationally.
The data may also be stored on cloud-based storage for parts of our overall business process.
Please be aware that countries which are outside the European Economic Area may not offer the same level of legal protection for your personal information as under Belgian law, although any collection, storage and use of your personal data by us (or on our behalf) will continue to be governed by this privacy policy.
Our website may offer you the opportunity to pass your personal information to us in relation to a particular role which is of interest to you. This information may be routed through one of our 3rd party suppliers before it is delivered electronically to us. All of our 3rd party suppliers have been vetted to ensure that they will meet our own privacy and security standards in the collection and processing of your personal information.
Our website may also link or direct you to other websites or external content which are not within our control. Links to other websites may be provided for your convenience and information.

These sites have their own privacy statement in place, and we recommend you review these if you visit any linked website. You should therefore exercise caution including reviewing the privacy policy of those websites before disclosing any personal data.
