We collect information you provide directly to us, such as your name, company, email address, phone number, job title, CV, and any details you share when contacting us, requesting services, or applying for opportunities. We also collect technical information automatically when you visit our website, including IP address, browser type, device identifiers, referring URL, and pages visited.

2. How Information Is Used

We use personal data to deliver and improve our recruitment, staffing, managed teams, and workforce services, respond to enquiries, communicate about services, assess candidates for opportunities, fulfil contractual obligations, comply with legal requirements, prevent fraud, and conduct business analytics. Where required, processing is based on your consent, contractual necessity, legal obligation, or our legitimate interests.

3. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Our website uses cookies and similar technologies to ensure proper functioning, remember preferences, measure performance, and improve user experience. You can manage cookie preferences through our cookie banner or your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect site functionality.

4. Data Sharing

We do not sell personal data. We may share information with clients (for candidates, with your knowledge), trusted service providers, professional advisors, group entities, and authorities where required by law. Any third parties processing data on our behalf are bound by contractual confidentiality and data protection obligations.

5. Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes outlined in this policy, comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Retention periods vary based on the nature of the data and applicable legal requirements.
