\r\n

How do we collect your personal data?

\r\n

The vast majority of personal data is either obtained from you directly or, if you have engaged with us through a third party recruitment agent, your chosen recruitment agent. However, we obtain some personal data from other sources such as previous employers, criminal records checks from the Disclosure and Barring Services in the UK and the Garda Vetting Bureau in Ireland and Experian, and credit-checking sources should the role you applying for require us to do so.

\r\n

What do we use your personal data for?

\r\n

We will process personal data about you for the following purposes, which are all necessary in our legitimate interests, to take steps at your request prior to entering into an employment contract with you (if your application is successful) and to comply with law:

\r\n

process and assess your application;
consider you for the position you have applied for and any future vacancies if appropriate
for research and analysis and to help us improve our recruitment process;
make up your personnel file if you are successful (however only to the extent relevant to your employment;
to approach your nominated referees for the purposes of obtaining references; and
to carry out equal opportunities monitoring.

\r\n

We also need to process your personal data where necessary

\r\n

to comply with a legal obligation; or
for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party) in circumstances where your own interests and rights do not override those interests.

\r\n

This processing does not adversely affect your rights and freedoms. If we did not process most of the personal data we collect about you, then we would not be able to consider you for the position. 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. If we need to use your persona data for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you and we will explain the legal basis that allows us to do so.

\r\n

Please note that we may process your personal information in limited circumstances without your knowledge or consent where this is required or permitted by law.

\r\n

Who will have access to your personal data?

\r\n

Sometimes we will disclose some of your personal data to other organisations.

\r\n

This will happen where we use another organisation to provide services, such as IT service providers and professional advisers (including lawyers and recruitment service providers). Where such third parties process your personal data on behalf of Center Parcs we will ensure that a written data processing agreement or clauses are in place.

\r\n

We will disclose your personal data to other companies within the Center Parcs group where we use centralised resources to administer our systems.

\r\n

We may also have to disclose some personal data to professional bodies, Courts, the Police and other UK authorities on request.

\r\n

From time to time, we will transfer your personal data outside of the EEA, for example, some of our third party IT service providers have operations based outside of the EEA. Where this is the case, we ensure that those providers comply with strict obligations of confidentiality and security. We also ensure that, in line with requirements set out in the Data Protection Laws, any transfer of your personal data outside the EEA is subject to adequate protection either because it is being transferred to a country which has equivalent data protection laws in place, it is being transferred to an organisation that is a member of an approved certification (e.g Privacy Shield in the US) or by entering into an appropriate contract to govern the transfer itself. If you want more information about countries to which your information is transferred and the protections that we put in place, please contact the Legal Department.

\r\n

How long do we keep your data?

\r\n

We will maintain retention policies and procedures so that your personal data is destroyed after a period of 12 months from the date of your application - given the purposes for which the data is used - except where another law requires us to keep the data for a certain length of time. When we do delete your personal data, we will make sure we do it in a secure and confidential way.

\r\n

Your rights in relation to your personal data

\r\n

As a data subject, you have the following rights under Data Protection Laws:

\r\n

the right of access to personal data relating to you
