How ITG uses personal information
ITG will only use your personal information, or special category information when there is a lawful basis for doing so. Most commonly, your information will be used in the following circumstances:
- When needed to perform a contract entered into with you
- When needed to comply with a legal obligation
- When it is necessary for the legitimate interests of ITG and your interests and rights under data protection law do not override those interests
ITG may also use your personal information, or special category information in the following situations, which are likely to be rare, and wouldn’t be considered part of the day-to-day processing activities of ITG:
- When needed to protect your interests (or someone else’s interests)
- Where it is needed in the public interest
The situations in which ITG may process your personal information as part of the recruitment process are listed below:
- To communicate with you, where necessary
- Complying with health and safety obligations
- To prevent fraud
Some of the above reasons for processing may overlap, and there may be several grounds which justify the use of your personal information, or special category information.
Failure to provide personal information
If you fail to provide certain information when requested ITG may not be able to fulfill some or all of its obligations to you, and/or may be prevented from complying with legal requirements.
If you feel that you are being requested to provide more personal information than necessary, please email info@itgcorporate.com
How special category information is used
Special category information is considered more sensitive than personal information, and as such requires a greater level of protection.
ITG is required to have further justification for processing this type of information, and will only do so in the following circumstances:
- In limited circumstances, with your explicit written consent
- Where required to carry fulfill a legal obligation or exercise rights in connection with your employment
- Where it is needed in the public interest
Change of purpose
ITG will only use your personal information for the purpose(s) for which it was collected. In the event that it is needed for an unrelated purpose, ITG will notify you and explain the lawful basis for the processing.
Information regarding criminal convictions
If we were to find out that someone applying to work for us was suspected of committing a criminal offence, ITG will only collect such information where legally permitted.
Data security
Quistor has put in place the appropriate and necessary security measures to protect your personal information, or special category information from being accidentally lost, altered, disclosed, or used, or accessed in an unauthorised way.
