HRT AVG/GDPR Privacy Policy Statement

This document describes all measures that are taken regarding the privacy of candidates and the protection of their Personal Data when using this Jobsite.

Definitions

Data controller

The Data controller is a natural person or legal person, who, alone or with others, determines the purpose and the means for the processing of Personal Data.

Personal Data Protection Act/General Data Protection Regulation

This is a regulation with which the European Commission wants to promote the security of data. This mainly concerns the protection of personal information of European residents. With this regulation, the European Commission wants to give control over personal data back to the individual. It will go into effect on 25 May 2018 and be called ‘Wet Bescherming Persoonsgegevens’ (Wbp) and ‘Algemene Verordening Gegevensbescherming’ (AVG) or ’General Data Protection Regulation’ (GDPR) in English.

Personal data

The AVG defines personal data as follows:
‘All information about an identified or identifiable natural person referred to as identifiable will be a natural person who can be identified directly or indirectly, in particular by means of an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or one or more elements characteristic of the physical, physiological, genetic, psychological, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.’

Special categories of personal data

These are personal data indicating race or ethnic origin, political beliefs, religious or philosophical beliefs, or membership of a trade union, and processing of genetic data, biometric data for the unique identification of a person, or data on health, or data related to a person's sexual behaviour or sexual orientation.

Processor

The Data Controller may appoint an external subcontractor to process personal data, as a Processor. This is ‘a natural or legal person, a government agency, a service or another body that processes personal data for the Data Controller’. In this document, this is:

HR-Technologies NV with registered office on Kempische Steenweg 293 Bus 35, 3500 Hasselt, registered in the RPR with number 0477.537.136, and the Data Protection Officer can be contacted viadpo@hr-technologies.com

.

Processing agreement

A processing agreement is a contract signed by two parties: on the one hand the Data Controller, the organisation held responsible for what happens to personal data, and on the other hand the Processor, the third party who takes over part or all the processing for the Controller.

Jobsite

This means this website and web application, called ‘EasyToRecruit’, which is taken over for the Data Controller by the Processor and is responsible for collecting and processing personal data.
