We seek to ensure that our information collection and processing is always proportionate. We will notify you of any changes to information we collect or to the purposes for which we collect and process it.

3. Disclosure of your information

ieso works hard to ensure that only the right people have access to your personal data, and information is only shared on a strictly ‘need to know’ basis. Anyone receiving information about you will be under an equal legal duty to keep it confidential. Recruitment information is usually only shared internally between our talent acquisition manager, the hiring team and HR, although on occasions an internal reviewer or an external consultant may also be granted access.

As set out above, we pass your information to our third-party service providers, including Workable, who use it only in accordance with our instructions and as otherwise required by law.

Where you have applied for a job opening through the Indeed Apply functionality, and where you have consented to this disclosure, We will disclose to Indeed certain personal data that We hold, including but not limited to a unique identifier used by Indeed to identify you, and information about your progress through our hiring process for the applicable job opening, as well as tangible, intangible, visual, electronic, present, or future information that we hold about you, such as your name, contact details and other information involving analysis of data relating to you as an applicant for employment (collectively “Disposition Data”). Indeed’s Privacy Notice in respect of Indeed’s use of the Disposition Data is available on Indeed’s website.

Where you have applied to a job opening through another service provider, we may disclose data similar to the Disposition Data defined above to such service provider. The service provider shall be the data controller of this data and shall therefore be responsible for complying with all applicable law in respect of the use of that data following its transfer by Us.

If you are successful in the recruitment process, we will pass your name to a qualifications checking company who will obtain the rest of the information they require directly from you.

 We may also need to share some of the above categories of personal information with other parties, such as HR consultants and professional advisers. Usually, information will be anonymised, but this will not always be possible. The recipient of the information will be bound by confidentiality obligations.

We do not sell, use or share your personal information for direct marketing or other external promotional purposes.

We will always seek your permission ahead of disclosing any information that identifies you directly to any other person or organisation, or, for any other reason not set out in this policy unless We have an overriding legal duty to do so.

Transferring data outside the UK

The data thatWe collect from you and process using Workable’s Services may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside the European Economic Area("EEA"). It may also be processed by staff operating outside the EEA who work for Workable or for one of their suppliers. In particular, your data may be accessible to i) Workable’s staff in the USA or ii) may be stored byWorkable’s hosting service provider on servers in the USA as well as in the EU.The USA does not have the same data protection laws as the United Kingdom andEEA, so where any such member of the Workable group of companies is outside theUK or the EU a personal data transfer will be on the basis of a contract including the Model Contractual Clauses in accordance with the Data ProtectionLaws, and accompanied by associated technical and organisational measures to seek to ensure that information is processed securely and data subject rights are not diminished. A Data Processor Agreement has been signed between WorkableSoftware Limited and its overseas group companies, and between WorkableSoftware Limited and each of its data processors. These data process or agreements are designed to help safeguard your privacy rights and give you remedies in the unlikely event of a misuse of your personal data, and Workable have self-certified for the Privacy Shield.

By submitting your personal data, you agree to this transfer, storing and/or other processing.

4. How we secure your information

We place great importance on the security of personal identifiable information. We have put controls in place to safeguard your personal information, applying physical, technical and procedural measures against unauthorised access, loss, misuse and alteration of personal information under Our control.

We limit access to your personal data to those who have a genuine business need to know it. Those processing your information will do so only in an authorised manner and are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

We also have procedures in place to deal with any suspected data security breach. We will notify you and any applicable regulator of a suspected data security breach where We are legally required to do so.

We have achieved the International Standard certification for information security (ISO 27001) and maintain the Cyber Essentials Plus certification.

Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although We will do Our best to protect your personal data, We cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted through any online means, therefore any transmission remains at your own risk.

5. How long do we keep your information

Your information is retained on Workable for 12 months.

(If you are successful for a role at Ieso you will be issued with an Employment Contract, and once signed become an employee; if successful for a role as an affiliated therapist, you will be issued with a therapist Agreement to work with us on a self-employed basis; if successful as a PWP, you will be issued with a contract from Umbrella Company Limited and be able to work on the Ieso project through them. At this time We need to process other personal data for other purposes, so you will be supplied with a different set of Privacy Notices with different retention periods.)

Our data retention practices are reviewed at least annually in conjunction with industry standards and best practice.
