Privacy Policy

Data Protection Declaration and the Provision of Information (Art 13 GDPR)

PREAMBLE

First things first: We keep your personal data confidential and conform with the statutory data protection regulations.

We would like to provide you with information about what personal data we collect from you when you register on our candidate portal, why we require it and who you can contact if you have any questions.


Who is the data protection statement for?

This declaration is for individuals (also referred to as candidates) who wish to register a free career profile on our candidate portal with Talentor, either when applying for a vacancy or when making an unsolicited application.


Who are we?

We are Talentor Australia, an executive search firm based in Australia with different offices in Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane. We specialize in executive search and consulting for senior to middle management.

Main address: Atchison Street, St Leonards 23, NSW 2065 New South Wales, Australia.

Why do we process your data?

We use your data for the purpose of providing career advice and for job placement in your country. For this purpose, you can register in our candidate pool without applying for a specific position. As soon as vacancies that match your candidate profile become available, a Talentor consultant in your country will contact you by email or phone to discuss the next steps.

Candidates can also create a profile to apply directly for a specific position. Unfortunately, the first vacancy you actively apply for is not always successful. In this case, a Talentor consultant will also contact you by email or phone as soon as there are further vacancies matching your profile.


What is the legal basis on which we process your personal data?

We process your personal data on the basis of your consent. (Article 6(1) and 9(2) and GDPR), which you can provide to us specifically and voluntarily. We cannot and will not process your personal data without your consent, except that the processing is (also) carried out for the purpose of compliance with legal obligations and for legitimate interest (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR) in connection with the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.

You are neither under a legal obligation to disclose your personal data nor is there any contractual obligation. However, without your personal data, we cannot receive any applications for employment from you, nor can we inform you about suitable vacancies.


What personal data do we collect and process?

When creating a profile, the following data is collected and subsequently processed:

  • IP address, registration data (login, password)
  • Personal data (name, surname and date of birth)
  • Address data
  • Contact details (e.g. phone number, email address)
  • Application documents (e.g. CV or certificates)
  • Career (e.g. information about your previous employment)
  • Educational details (e.g. details of studies or school qualifications)
  • Job requirements (e.g. desired scope of employment, desired salary, notice period)
  • Skills and qualifications (e.g. additional training, certificates, languages, hobbies)
  • Date and time (registration or update)

Does profiling take place?

Our recruiting process does not include any automatisms that result in candidates being automatically removed from the application process or being automatically recommended to one of our clients. The decision concerning which candidates are to be contacted regarding which positions or whether their data are to be forwarded to one of our clients, is always made by the responsible Talentor consultant.
Candidate profiles are indexed in the candidates database in order to find them easier, this enabling appropriate job positions to be suggested efficiently. The indexing includes data from the application documents regarding the skills and qualifications or the career. When new job vacancies exist, these tags are used in order to match the candidate profiles and all of the other data with the job requirements.
The Talentor consultants also use search algorithms in order to match candidate profiles with job positions. With the assistance of this method, it is also possible to find candidates that use synonymous terms in their advertising documents.

Who gets your data?

  • Talentor Australia employees:
    For the purpose of fulfilling the purpose, the responsible employees of Talentor Canada and, if necessary, companies affiliated with Talentor (see point 3.) have access to all data referred to in point 6.
  • Talentor clients:
    We suggest matching job positions to you in the scope of the recruiting process. After an interview at Talentor or after we have contacted you, we forward your data for a specific job position to individual clients. The client is not granted full access to your data, a so-called candidate report is generated as a PDF document. This report is issued in relation to the position and comprises your master data (personal data, address and contact data), your professional requirements (e.g. desired salary or period of notice), the appraisal of the Talentor consultant on the basis of the interview and the memos. Our clients are placed under a contractual duty of confidentiality and secrecy.

  • Technical service providers:
    We sometimes use service providers (known as processors) to provide our services. Examples of such service providers are our recruitment software providers or hosting providers who provide us with servers to run the software. These service providers only have occasional access to your data for maintenance and support purposes. You are contractually bound by a processing agreement in accordance with Article 28 of the GDPR to confidentiality and data security measures, and we regularly check compliance with data security measures. In this context, there is no processing of personal data in third countries.
  • Additional recipients:
    It could be possible that we have to grant authorities or courts of law access to your data on a case by case basis for the purpose of fulfilling legal obligations or in order to defend ourselves against legal claims.

What are your rights?

The General Data Protection Regulation (Articles 15 to 22) stipulates that you have information, deletion, restriction, data transfer, amendment and contradictory rights. We would like to explain some of these rights to you in more detail:

  • Your information and amendment right

You shall obviously be provided with information with regard to your personal data that we store and process. Should your data no longer be applicable or be incomplete, you can demand that it be amended or supplemented.

  • Your right to have your personal data revoked or deleted

You can revoke your consent at all times and exercise your “right to be forgotten“. In this case, we have a duty to delete your personal data and to inform all of those to who we have transferred your personal data of your deletion request. Your revocation of the consent does not affect the legality of the processing that has taken place until receipt of the revocation on the basis of the consent.

  • Your restriction, data transferability and contradiction rights in addition to measures in connection with the automated making of decisions

You can also exercise processing or provision restriction rights with regard to your data within the scope of the data transferability right in addition to you being entitled to contradict the processing or provision of your data (especially in direct marketing). You can also demand that diverse measures be adopted in the scope of automated data processing (e.g. personal intervention or the presentation of your own point of view).

Your personal data are basically stored until such time as you revoke your granted consent. It is possible however that statutory documentation obligations or the documentation for the assertion and exercising of legal claims or the defense against such can necessitate the data being processed after receipt of your declaration of revocation. In such cases, we shall inform you that your data is still being processed and the reason for this in addition to us informing you of its deletion.

We reserve the right to delete the profiles of candidates who we have been unable to offer a matching job for a long time. Should you find an interesting vacancy later, you can always create a new profile.

Please note that under certain circumstances, a deletion cannot take place immediately but with a delay on the basis of legal obligations or in order to assert or exercise legal claims or in order for us to defend ourselves against such claims.
