INFORMATION NOTICE AND CONSENT FORM FOR CANDIDATE SHORE EMPLOYEES
The Company hereby informs you about the processing of your personal data in the context of your application for employment and in accordance with the provisions of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data ("GDPR") and on the free movement of such data, as well as applicable regional legislation and industry practices relevant to the Company.
In the course of the recruitment process, the Company may collect and process your personal data either directly from you or via third parties such as recruitment agencies, job boards, or referrers. This includes, but is not limited to, your identification and contact details, education and professional qualifications, employment history, references, language skills, professional certifications, application documents (such as CVs, cover letters, and interview notes), results from assessments or psychometric tests, communications with the Company, and other information you voluntarily provide. Where applicable and required, data may also include results from background or security checks, or information verifying your eligibility to work.
Your personal data will be processed solely for the purposes of evaluating your candidacy, managing the recruitment process, assessing your suitability for a position, and communicating with you. In the event your application is successful, your data may be further processed for the purpose of preparing an employment agreement. If you consent, your data may also be retained for future employment opportunities within the Company. The Company processes your data on the basis of its legitimate interests in conducting an effective recruitment process, taking steps prior to entering into a contract, complying with legal obligations, and, where applicable, your explicit consent. Providing your personal data is necessary in order for the Company to assess your application and comply with applicable legal obligations; failure to provide certain information may affect the outcome of your application.
Your data may be made accessible to authorized personnel within the Company and to third parties who assist in the recruitment process or provide services on behalf of the Company, including IT service providers, assessment providers, recruitment consultants, and, where legally required, to governmental or regulatory bodies. In specific cases, and only where you have provided explicit consent, your data may also be shared with insurance providers or other third parties for the purposes of pre-employment health screenings or travel arrangements.
Where such countries do not benefit from an adequacy decision by the European Commission, such transfers will be carried out using appropriate safeguards in accordance with the GDPR, such as Standard Contractual Clauses or equivalent mechanisms.
The Company retains your personal data for the duration of the recruitment process and, unless otherwise required by law or based on your consent, for no longer than twelve (12) months after the conclusion of that process. You have the right to access your personal data, request corrections or erasure, restrict or object to processing, and receive a copy of your data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. Where processing is based on your consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out prior to withdrawal. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent data protection authority.
To exercise your rights or for any questions related to the processing of your personal data, you may contact the Company as follows:
