SIGMANEST collects and processes the information that you submit when you apply for a position at SIGMANEST ("Personal Data"). This applicant privacy notice ("Privacy Notice") sets out which Personal Data that we collect and for which purposes it is processed, as well as your rights connected to the processing of your Personal Data.
“Personal Data” means all types of information that can directly or indirectly identify a live person.
Throughout this Privacy Notice the term "processing" is used to cover all activities involving your Personal Data, including collecting, handling, storing, sharing, accessing, using, transferring and disposing of information.
The “GDPR” is the EU (2016/679) General Data Protection Regulation. It is a regulation aimed to protect the Personal Data of individuals.
SIGMANEST may process your Personal Data for the purpose of administering the application process. This includes processing your Personal Data to assess your skills, qualifications and interests against the particular job you have applied for, as well as take measures to verify that the information you have provided is true and accurate, for example, by means of reference checks. Personal Data processed for these purposes include:
Your Personal Data is processed based on SIGMANEST’s legitimate interests to administer your application, assess your suitability for the position and to verify your information as well as in order to take steps requested by you prior to potentially entering into an employment contract.
Your Personal Data will be processed during the application process. When the application process has been closed, we will store your Personal Data for another nine months or such longer or shorter period permitted in your country in order to exercise, establish or defend a legal claim. Additionally, if you become employed by SIGMANEST, we will store your Personal Data during your employment in accordance with the SIGMANEST Employee Privacy Notice.
If the position you apply for requires local background checks and, to the extent permitted by local law, SIGMANEST will process your Personal Data for the purpose of conducting background checks. Personal Data processed for this purpose includes:
Your Personal Data is processed on the basis of SIGMANEST’s legitimate interest to verify that your background is suitable for SIGMANEST's business and the job you have applied for. Moreover, SIGMANEST has an interest in verifying the information that you have provided.
Any criminal records processed will be irreversibly erased after SIGMANEST has conducted the background check.
If you give your consent, SIGMANEST will also process your Personal Data for consideration with other potential positions within the SIGMANEST and keep you informed regarding potential career opportunities that suit your profile. Personal Data processed for this purpose includes:
Your Personal Data is processed on the basis of your consent. You may revoke your consent in accordance with section 6 below.
The Personal Data processed for the above purposes will be stored for twelve (12) months, calculated from when the application process has been closed. However, SIGMANEST will store your Personal Data even longer, if you notify SIGMANEST you would like to be considered for other positions within SIGMANEST. Such notification shall constitute a renewed consent to the processing of your Personal Data, and SIGMANEST will then store your Personal Data for an additional 12 months.
SIGMANEST will strive to send you an e-mail reminder at the end of the twelve month period. If you become employed by SIGMANEST, we will store your Personal Data during your employment in accordance with the SIGMANEST Employee Data Privacy Notice.
SIGMANEST may process your Personal Data for the purposes of establishing, exercising and defending potential legal claims. Personal Data processed for these purposes include the same categories of Personal data as detailed above.
Your Personal Data processed in accordance with this section 2.4 is processed on the basis of a legitimate interest for SIGMANEST to establish, exercise and/or defend potential legal claims in the event of a dispute or controversy between you and SIGMANEST, related to the hiring process and/or your application.
As explained above, the Personal Data processed for this purpose will be stored until the application process for the position you have applied for is closed (except for background checks which are deleted in accordance with section 2.2 above) and for another nine months or such longer or shorter period permitted in your country in order to exercise, establish or defend a legal claim.
SIGMANEST may disclose Personal Data processed for the purposes set forth in section 2 above to other companies within the SIGMANEST. Such recipients may be located in countries outside the EU/EEA. To ensure adequate protection of Personal Data when it is transferred (regardless to which country it is transferred) both the sending and receiving SIGMANEST entity have entered SIGMANEST’s intra-group data transfer agreement. This means that the receiving SIGMANEST entity must safeguard the Personal Data, for example by complying with the European Commission´s Standard Contractual Clauses in relation to the data transfer.
Moreover, SIGMANEST may share data with external parties such as vendors and service providers that process Personal Data under SIGMANEST´s instructions. If and when Personal Data is transferred outside the EU/EEA, SIGMANEST will ensure that the European Commission´s Standard Contractual Clauses have been entered into between the SIGMANEST entity that transfers the data and the receiving external party. Alternatively, other safeguards will be put in place before such a transfer.
You are entitled to receive a copy of any documentation demonstrating that appropriate safeguards have been taken in order to protect your Personal Data during a transfer outside the EU/EEA regardless of whether it is an intra-group transfer or a transfer to an external party. To request such a confirmation, please send your request to cevinpl@fvtznarfg.pbz.
Transfers in accordance with this section 3 will be done for the same purposes as described above and are based on the same legal ground as is applicable for each respective purpose set forth in section 2 above.
If you would like further information of countries outside the EU/EEA to which your personal data may be transferred, contact us at cevinpl@fvtznarfg.pbz.
SIGMANEST may also provide your Personal Data (such as name, social security number, address and information regarding your income) to governmental authorities for the purposes of complying with legal obligations, for example, in the area of accounting and tax reporting.
SIGMANEST will take steps in accordance with the GDPR to keep your Personal Data accurate, complete and up-to-date. If you identify that any Personal Data related to you is inadequate, incomplete or incorrect, you are entitled to have the Personal Data corrected.
