Our GDPR Statement

We have recently updated our policy regarding data to address the new standards introduced by the European data protection law known as GDPR. The EU General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR) will strengthen and unify data protection for all individuals within the EU.

We have taken several steps to ensure we are operating in line with the new regulations and have briefed all our staff on GDPR, what their personal responsibilities are and have provided training on any changes implemented.

We store all collected information on candidates on our private database, including CV, name, address, and requirement from a new position. The database is secure, password protected and can only be accessed by team members employed by Strictly People Ltd.

Strictly People Ltd keep this information on our database until we’ve had no contact from you for two years, you unsubscribe from us or utilise your right to be forgotten.

Strictly People Ltd store your data as necessary for your job applications through us.

We continue to store data as we believe our candidates continue to have a legitimate interest in our communications, therefore the data needs to be stored.

We will only communicate with you when it is believed there is a legitimate interest in what we are communicating i.e. relevant job positions, relevant articles etc.

We will not share your data with anyone without your permission. When given permission Strictly People Ltd will pass your details onto our clients that you are interested in.
