Your privacy is our starting point in everything. In this privacy statement, we clearly explain how we collect your data and what we use it for.

We process your name and contact details. We also process the data you provide on your resume or in your motivation letter. You are personally responsible for the accuracy and relevance of the data you provide to us.

Purpose for processing

We process your data to assess whether you are suitable for the open vacancy. If necessary for the position, an assessment may form part of the evaluation. We may also use reference checks (but of course only with your consent) and social media to the extent relevant to the position.

Providing personal data when applying for a job is not mandatory. However, without this data, we may not be able to assess whether you as a candidate are suitable for the vacant position.

We only share your personal data within our organisation with those who assess your application, such as intended managers, employees of the HR department and your interviewers at any job interview.

Do you apply for a job as a temporary employee, or do you respond to an assignment as a hired professional? Then we also share your personal data with interested hirers/clients.

How long do we keep your data?

With your application, you give us permission to keep your personal data for up to one year after the application period ends, so that we can keep you informed of future vacancies. Without consent, your personal data will be stored until four weeks after the application procedure is completed. You can withdraw your consent at any time.
