Privacy policy with regards to selection & recruitment process

Introduction

The Company ITAF respects the privacy of the data of individuals with whom it comes into contact. The company has adopted a special Privacy Policy on the processing of data of individuals whose data it comes into contact with or processes them. In this document, ITAF explains what personal data it collects and how it treats them in the process of selection and recruitment in accordance with GDPR (regulation (EU) 2016/679) and in accordance with the Serbian Law on Personal Data Protection (Official Gazette of RS 87/2018).

This policy applies to all kinds of job applications: e.g. spontaneous, job sites, via regular mail, via e-mail, etc.

Which personal data do we process?

Personal data includes the following information:

  • name and surname, date and place of birth;
  • academic and professional/professional qualifications contained in the curriculum vitae and cover letter: level of education, titles, data on skills, knowledge of foreign languages, training, list of previous employers;
  • contact details: e-mail address, telephone number

This information can be delivered directly or via CV, motivational letter, online survey, tests, references, personal contact, etc.

When announcing a job vacancy, the Company does not determine the form of the CV, but the job candidate determines it, as a result of which the Company may obtain a larger amount of data than the one contained in paragraph 1 of this Article, at the will of the job candidate.

The legal basis and purpose of collecting the data listed above is the potential conclusion of an employment contract. All other data that we process, we process on the basis of your consent, which is considered to have been given by submitting a job application by filling out a questionnaire or sending another document containing your data.

What do we mean by processing?

We are applying the GDPR regulation:

“’processing’ means any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.” (article 4, part 2 & 6 of GDPR)

What is the purpose of the data processing?

The collected personal data is exclusively used in the context of the selection and recruitment process. Without this information, the selection & recruitment process cannot be completed and, in other words, you cannot be considered for unfilled vacancies.

Your response to our vacancy or your submission of spontaneous application is valid as an active act whereby you explicitly and unambiguously give permission to process your data. You can withdraw this permission at any time by emailing your request to hr.office@itaf.eu.

How long are my data kept?

Personal data collected in this way are kept until the end of the job advertisement based on the potential conclusion of the contract, and with the consent of the candidate, which is considered to be given by filling out a questionnaire or submitting a resume, are stored for a period of one year. which will be completely deleted from the system.

What does ITAF undertake to protect my personal data?

The company takes special care that the information collected is secure and protected from loss, alteration, unauthorized access and any kind of misuse.

Only the HR-responsible(s) and the responsible of the team/departments have access to your personal data in the context of the performance of their duties within the selection and recruitment process. These persons are obliged to respect confidentiality and security of this data.

Data transfer and data export from the Republic of Serbia

The Company may engage a third party, in its capacity as a service provider and a personal data processor, to perform certain personal data processing activities on behalf of the Company (for example, an agency that will recruit candidates).

In these cases, only those data that are necessary for the purpose of the contracted processing may be provided, and the processors may not use them for other purposes. The conditions of data processing and responsibility for data protection are regulated in more detail by the contract between the Company and the processor.
