We also collect, use and share “Aggregated Data” such as statistical or demographic data for any purpose. Aggregated Data could be derived from your personal data but is not considered personal data in law as this data will not directly or indirectly reveal your identity. For example, we may aggregate your Usage Data to calculate the percentage of users accessing a specific website feature. However, if we combine or connect Aggregated Data with your personal data so that it can directly or indirectly identify you, we treat the combined data as personal data which will be used in accordance with this privacy policy.

Where we need to collect personal data by law, or under the terms of a contract we have with you, and you fail to provide that data when requested, we may not be able to perform the contract we have or are trying to enter into with you. If you provide incorrect details, we may not be able to provide you with the service for which you are enquiring. If you are a job applicant applying for a role through the Website, it is important that you provide us with up-to-date and accurate data in order to enable us to process your application.

We will only use your personal data for the purposes for which we collected it, unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason and that reason is compatible with the original purpose. We have set out below, in a table format, a description of all the ways we plan to use your personal data, and which of the legal bases we rely on to do so. We have also identified what our legitimate interests are where appropriate.

We use Workable, an online application system provided by Workable Software Limited, to assist with our recruitment process. Workable processes your personal data as a data processor on our behalf and is only entitled to process it in accordance with our instructions. Workable provides us with the facility to link the data you provide to us, with other publicly available information about you that you have published on the Internet – this may include sources such as LinkedIn and other social media profiles. Workable’s technology allows us to search various databases – some publicly available and others not, which may include your personal data (include your CV or Resumé), to find possible candidates to fill our job openings. Where We find you in this way, we will obtain your personal data from these sources. We may receive your personal data from a third party who recommends you as a candidate for a specific job opening or for our business more generally. Automated decision making and profiling We may use Workable’s technology to select appropriate candidates for us to consider based on criteria expressly identified by us, or typical in relation to the role for which you have applied. The process of finding suitable candidates is automatic, however, any decision as to who we will engage to fill the job opening will be made by our staff. International transfers We transfer your personal data to our service providers or partners outside the European Economic Area (EEA). We shall only transfer your personal data outside the EEA in the event that the respective countries to which such data is to be transferred provide an adequate level of protection for your personal information. Determining whether an adequate level of protection of your personal data is provided is based on the existence of one of the following: The European Commission has determined that the respective third country, territory or a specified sector within that third country ensures an adequate level of protection for data transfers; The service provider or partner to whom your personal data is to be transferred provides appropriate safeguards and data subject rights and adequate legal remedies for data subjects are available. Appropriate safeguards can be provided in various ways including the use of standard contractual clauses approved by the EU Commission. For more information kindly click here. We require all third parties to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the law. We do not allow our third-party service providers to use your personal data for their own purposes and only permit them to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.
Under certain circumstances, you have rights under data protection laws in relation to your personal data: You have the right to: Request access to your personal data (commonly known as a “data subject access request”). This enables you to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it. Request correction of the personal data that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us. Request erasure of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for us to continue to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your personal data where you have successfully exercised your right to object to processing (see below), where we may have processed your information unlawfully or where we are required to erase your personal data to comply with local law. Note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons where we need to abide by applicable laws or where otherwise there is a legitimate interest for us not to comply with such request. Otherwise, you may ask users to delete all your personal data at any point in time, and at which point we will use our best endeavours to adhere to your request. Please note that in the event that you wish for us to delete your data related to a job application, we will not be able to consider you for future job roles which may become available and which may fit your application unless you re-apply and submit the information again. Object to processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. In some cases, however, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your rights and freedoms. Request restriction of processing of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of your personal data in the following scenarios: a) if you want us to establish the data’s accuracy b) where our use of the data is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it c) where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims. d) you have objected to our use of your data but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it. Request the transfer of your personal data to you or to a third party. We will provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Note that this right only applies to automated information which you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you. Withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your personal data. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent. You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. Alternatively, we could refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances. We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response. We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it could take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated. We will retain copies of any communications that you send to us (including copies of any emails) in order to maintain accurate records of the information that we have received from you. You can exercise your rights at any time by contacting us at dataprotection@gig.com.
To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data (kindly refer to the table above) and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal and regulatory requirements. We might keep your personal data for a longer period of time with your explicit consent. If you unsuccessfully apply to a position within GiG you might request the removal of your personal data after 12 months by sending an email to dataprotection@gig.com and we will make sure to delete all personal data within the regulatory timelines. We shall retain Aggregated Data for an indefinite period of time as, although this stems from personal data, it does not identify you in any way and does not amount to personal data. In some circumstances, we will anonymise your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for research or statistical purposes, in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.
The Site has implemented the necessary and digital and infrastructure security measures at the physical IT and data storage facilities to protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of your information.
