  1. Why we process data and on what legal basis

Lawful basis for processing

We rely on legitimate interest as the lawful basis on which the company collects and uses your personal data. Our legitimate interests are the recruitment of staff for Client’s business and visa versa.

We use information held about you in the following ways:

  • To consider your application in respect of a role for which you have applied.

  • To consider your application in respect of other roles.

  • To communicate with you in respect of the recruitment process.

  • To enhance any information that we receive from you with information obtained from third party data providers.

  • To find appropriate candidates to fill Client job openings.

In order to proceed with a business relationship our clients must provide their personal data to us which are necessary for the required commencement and execution of a business relationship.

Failure to provide us with personal data prevents us from commencing or continuing a business relationship with the clients.

We process our clients’ personal data in accordance with the GDPR and the local data protection law for one or more of the following reasons:

  • For compliance with a legal obligation

We are obligated under law, such as Data Protection Legislation, to which we are subject to, to collect and process the personal data of our clients for due diligence purposes.

There are also various supervisory authorities whose laws and regulations we are subject to e.g. the Cyprus Ministry of Labor which impose on us obligations and requirements to collect and process personal data for due diligence purposes.

  • From the specific consent of the client

When the client has provided specific consent for processing (other than for the reason set out hereinabove) then the lawfulness of such processing is based on that consent. The client has the right to revoke consent at any time. However, any processing of personal data prior to the receipt of the revocation will not be affected.

  • For the purposes of safeguarding legitimate interests

We process personal data so as to safeguard the legitimate interests pursued by us or by a third party. A legitimate interest is when we have a business or commercial reason to use our clients’ information.

  1. Who receives the personal data
