Lawfulness, fairness and transparency.

Information we may collect
We may collect and process the following data about you:
Reason for collecting information
Service Driven Professionals is an employment business and employment agency (as defined by the Conduct Regulations). With this purpose in mind, in pursuit of these legitimate interests, Service Driven Professionals will process information relevant to our business and in order to be able to provide professional services to potential and current candidates and clients.
Basis for collecting information
Service Driven Professionals will only collect and use information as described in this policy or as expressly advised to you. Depending on the nature of the information, we will process data in order to comply with applicable laws and regulations relevant to Service Driven Professionals business. In addition to this, where the apparent processing appears to go beyond legal or governmental requirements, Service Driven Professionals will be processing information in accordance with our “legitimate interests” where we have determined that such interests are not overridden by your interests or fundamental rights and freedoms.
IP Addresses and Cookies
We do not collect information about your computer including where available your IP address, operating system and browser type for system administration.
Where we store your personal data.
The data that we collect from you may be transferred to and stored at a destination outside the European Economic Area. By submitting your personal data you agree to this transfer. We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy. All information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers.
Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the Internet is not completely secure. So, whilst we will do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot ensure the security of your data transmitted to our site. Any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your information we will use strict procedures and security features to prevent unauthorised access.
How long will we store data?
This will depend on a number of factors, but will centralise around the nature of our relationship with you. For each category of data, we have considered the manner in which we process data against the rights and freedoms of the individual to ensure that we are acting reasonably and proportionately.
Broadly speaking there are two scenarios that will determine the timeframes for retention of data:
“Reasonable Period of Time”
What that reasonable period of time is will depend on your particular situation. For example, we have taken the view that for Contractors and Candidates, we would need to retain basic contact information together with a summary of your skills and experiences (which will most likely be in the form of your CV). In our opinion, it would be reasonable to retain such information for a period of three years after last contact, unless there are additional factors to consider (for example, if you say you are on a project for the next 18 months and we should contact you then).
Where you are a Contractor and we have entered into contractual agreements for your services, we will naturally hold contact information for you, and such information will be held in accordance with the principles above. However, we will also have been sent financial information, background information and right to work documentation. Due to the increased sensitivity involved with this type of information, unless there are additional factors to consider, we will only hold such information for the duration of your contract and for a period of 5 years after expiry of your contract.
Use of the information
We may use information held about you in the following ways:
Where you provide us with a copy of your CV we may reformat the information contained in it using our standard template before providing it to any potential employer. We will not, however, make any material changes to the information.
We may disclose your personal information to any member of Service Driven Professionals. This means any subsidiaries, any ultimate holding company and its subsidiaries.
We may disclose your personal information to third parties:
We will provide your data to potential employers that have notified us of vacancies for which you may be qualified but only with your express permission. It is your responsibility to notify us of any employers to whom you do not wish to submit your details.
