Vacancies Privacy Policy

Data controller: Moove Group, Dering Way, Gravesend, Kent, DA12 2QX
Data protection officer: Rudi Trevisani, Controls Advisor

This Privacy Policy is intended for individuals applying to Moove vacancies advertised on our company website.

As part of any recruitment process, the organisation collects and processes personal data relating to job applicants. The organisation is committed to being transparent about how it collects and uses that data and to meeting its data protection obligations.

What information does the organisation collect?

The organisation collects a range of information about you, for the purpose of considering your CV in application for our vacancies. This includes:

• your name, address and contact details, including email address, telephone number and home address;
• details of your qualifications, skills, experience and employment history;
• information about your current level of remuneration, including benefit entitlements;
• whether or not you have a disability for which the organisation needs to make reasonable adjustments during the recruitment process;
• information about your entitlement to work in the UK; and
  The organisation collects this information in a variety of ways. For example, data might be contained in application forms, CVs or resumes, obtained from your passport or other identity documents, or collected through interviews or other forms of assessment, including online tests. Should you be successful with your application to our vacancies, and should you receive an offer of employment from Moove, then the company will collect further personal data about you from third parties, such as employment references and will conduct a security clearance process, in which we conduct a credit enquiry check and DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) criminal check. The organisation will seek information from third parties only once a job offer to you has been made to you, and will inform you beforehand of these processes. Data will be stored in a range of different places, including on your application record, in HR management systems and on other IT systems (including email).

Why does the organisation process personal data?

The organisation needs to process data to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract with you. It also needs to process your data to enter into a contract with you. In some cases, the organisation needs to process data to ensure that it is complying with its legal obligations. For example, it is required to check a successful applicant's eligibility to work in the UK before employment starts. So we may need to check your visa information directly with the Home Office, and therefore share details of your visa and name with this authority. The organisation has a legitimate interest in processing personal data during the recruitment process and for keeping records of the process. Processing data from job applicants allows the organisation to manage the recruitment process, assess and confirm a candidate's suitability for employment and decide to whom to offer a job. The organisation may also need to process data from job applicants to respond to and defend against legal claims. Where the organisation relies on legitimate interests as a reason for processing data, it has considered whether or not those interests are overridden by the rights and freedoms of employees or workers and has concluded that they are not. The organisation processes health information if it needs to make reasonable adjustments to the recruitment process for candidates who have a disability. This is to carry out its obligations and exercise specific rights in relation to employment. The organisation obtains information about criminal convictions and offences. Where the organisation seeks this information, it does so because it is necessary for it to carry out its obligations and exercise specific rights in relation to employment. The organisation will not use your data for any purpose other than the recruitment exercise for which you have applied.

Who has access to data?

Your information will be shared internally for the purposes of the recruitment exercise. This includes members of the HR and recruitment team, interviewers involved in the recruitment process, managers in the business area with a vacancy and IT staff if access to the data is necessary for the performance of their roles. The organisation will not share your data with third parties, unless your application for employment is successful and it makes you an offer of employment. The organisation will then share your data with former employers to obtain references for you, employment background check providers to obtain necessary background checks and the Disclosure and Barring Service to obtain necessary criminal records checks. The organisation will not transfer your data outside the European Economic Area.

How does the organisation protect data?

The organisation takes the security of your data seriously. It has internal policies and controls in place to ensure that your data is not lost, accidentally destroyed, misused or disclosed, and is not accessed except by our employees in the proper performance of their duties.

For how long does the organisation keep data?

If your application for employment is unsuccessful, the organisation will hold your data on file for up to 6 months after the end of the relevant recruitment process. At the end of that period your data is deleted or destroyed. You can request that we don’t keep your details for this period of time if you wish.

If your application for employment is successful, personal data gathered during the recruitment process will be transferred to your personnel file and retained during your employment. The periods for which your data will be held will be provided to you in a new privacy policy.

Your rights

As a data subject and an applicant to Moove, you have a number of rights. You can:

• access and obtain a copy of your data on request at any time during the recruitment process;
• require the organisation to change incorrect or incomplete data;
• require the organisation to delete or stop processing your data, for example where the data is no longer necessary for the purposes of processing;
• object to the processing of your data where the organisation is relying on its legitimate interests as the legal ground for processing; and
• ask the organisation to stop processing data for a period if data is inaccurate or there is a dispute about whether or not your interests override the organisation's legitimate grounds for processing data.

If you would like to exercise any of these rights, please email Rudi Trevisani, Controls Advisor & Data Protection Officer, at: Privacy@uk.moovelub.com

What if you do not provide personal data?

You are under no statutory or contractual obligation to provide data to the organisation during the recruitment process. However, if you do not provide the information, the organisation may not be able to process your application properly or at all.

You are under no obligation to provide information for equal opportunities monitoring purposes and there are no consequences for your application if you choose not to provide such information.

Automated decision-making.

At Moove our recruitment and shortlisting processes are not based solely on automated decision-making. We utilise psychometric testing and job-fit analysis tools for some of our vacancies, to help us make our decision in recruiting the right candidate for the right role. We don’t rely solely on these tools or softwares.

If you have any questions throughout the recruitment process, please contact the Moove HR Team on Recruitment@uk.moovelub.com
