<p><br />It is in our legitimate interests to decide whether to appoint you to the role, work or assignment you applied for, since it would be beneficial to our business to appoint someone to that role, work or assignment.</p>
<p>If you reside in a jurisdiction where your consent is required for the collection, use and disclosure of personal information as set out in this Privacy Notice, by submitting an application to us or communicating personal information to us in connection with an application, you are providing your consent to the collection, use and disclosure of personal information as set out in this Privacy Notice. In some cases, your consent may be “implied” (i.e., your permission is assumed based on your action or inaction at the point of collection, use or sharing of your personal information. If you reside in a jurisdiction where data protection laws or other applicable regulations require your “explicit” consent for the collection, use and disclosure of personal information as set out in this Privacy Notice, you will be asked to provide a prior and explicit consent. We will generally obtain consent when we want to use personal information for a new purpose or for a purpose other than those stated at the time of collection in this Privacy Notice. Your consent can be withdrawn at any time, except in limited circumstances, including legal or regulatory requirements or as a result of your contractual obligations with us (such as a non-disclosure agreement).</p>
<p>Having received your CV and covering letter or your application form, we will then process that information to decide whether you meet the basic requirements to be shortlisted for the role. If you do, we will decide whether your application is strong enough to invite you for an interview. If we decide to call you for an interview, we will use the information you provide to us at the interview to decide whether to offer you the role, assignment or work. If we decide to offer you the role, assignment or work, we will then take up references and carry out, subject to compliance with applicable laws, a criminal record or any other check before confirming your appointment.</p>
<p><strong>If You Fail to Provide Personal Information</strong></p>
<p>If you fail to provide information when requested, which is necessary for us to consider your application (such as evidence of qualifications or work history), we will not be able to process your application successfully. For example, if we require a credit check or references for this role and you fail to provide us with relevant details, we will not be able to take your application further.</p>

<p><strong><br />INFORMATION ABOUT CRIMINAL CONVICTIONS</strong></p>
<p>Personal information relating to criminal convictions and offences will only be processed where authorized by applicable laws e.g.: (i) a criminal record check may be carried out on recruitment or transfer where authorized by applicable laws; or (ii) an allegation of a criminal offence or conviction arising during your relationship with Solenis may be processed where required or authorized. For example, where we have a legal or regulatory requirement to report an offence or applicable laws authorize Solenis to process information about the offence for the purpose of making decisions regarding your relationship with Solenis.</p>
<p>To the extent that we process this personal information, we do so on the basis of substantial public interest as set out in applicable laws.</p>
<p><strong>AUTOMATED DECISION-MAKING</strong></p>
<p>You will not be subject to decisions that will have a significant impact on you based solely on automated decision-making.</p>
<p><strong>SHARING PERSONAL INFORMATION WITH OTHERS</strong></p>
<p>Your personal information will be disclosed:</p>
<ul>
<li>within Solenis only to those individuals who need access to your personal information to perform their duties for the purposes listed above or where required or permitted by applicable law. This may include:</li>
<li>local, regional and global Human Resources, including managers and team members;</li>
<li>local, regional and executive management responsible for making hiring decisions or as otherwise appropriate (including, without limitation, staff from Legal and IT);</li>

<li>a recruitment agency supporting us with the recruitment, survey, employment on-boarding process;</li>
<li>clinics organizing the pre-employment medical check-up; and</li>
<li>companies providing IT services, such as hosting, supporting and maintaining the framework of our recruitment information systems.</li>

<p>Applicable Data Protection Laws may permit or require the sharing of personal information some circumstances not described above. These circumstances include situations when permitted or required by law or when necessary to protect our group of companies, our employees, our customers, or others, such as when investigating and preventing suspected or actual illegal activities, including fraud, or to assist government and law enforcement agencies, as well as potential buyers or acquirers of all or part of our business. If this happens, we will not share more personal information than is reasonably required to fulfil that particular purpose.</p>
<p>If you reside in a jurisdiction where applicable Data Protection Laws or other applicable regulations require your explicit consent for sharing of personal information outside the initial and specific purposes, you will be asked to provide a prior and explicit consent.</p>
<p><strong>INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS OF PERSONAL INFORMATION</strong></p>
<p>Due to the multinational character of Solenis, some of the affiliated companies and other recipients listed above may be located in countries that do not provide a level of data protection equivalent to that set forth by the law in your home country. We take appropriate steps to make sure that such recipients act in accordance with applicable law.</p>
<p>Transfers within the Solenis Group will be covered by an agreement entered into by members of Solenis Group (an intra group agreement) which contractually obliges each member to ensure that personal information receives an adequate and consistent level of protection wherever it is transferred within Solenis Group. Where we transfer your personal information outside Solenis Group or to our third party service providers, we obtain contractual commitments from them to protect your personal information (e.g., Standard contractual clauses for data transfers between EU and non-EU countries, or other approved transfer mechanisms).</p>
<p>You have a right to obtain more information about the recipients of your personal information and the safeguards we have put in place to ensure the adequate protection of your personal information when this is transferred as mentioned above. To exercise this right, please use the Contact Us section below.</p>
<p><strong>DATA SECURITY</strong></p>
<p>We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal information from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorized way, altered or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your personal information to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need-to-know. They will only process your personal information on our instructions, and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.</p>
<p>We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected data security breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a suspected breach where we are legally required to do so.</p>
<p><strong>DATA RETENTION</strong></p>
<p>We intend to keep your personal information accurate and up-to-date. We will not retain your personal information longer than it is necessary to carry out the purposes listed in this Privacy Notice or than is required by law.</p>
<p>To the extent permitted by Data Protection Laws or other applicable regulations, we will retain your personal information for a period of six months after we have communicated to you our decision about whether to appoint you to the role, assignment or work. We retain your personal information for that period so that we can show, in the event of a legal claim, that we have not discriminated against candidates on prohibited grounds and that we have conducted the recruitment exercise in a fair and transparent way. After this period, we will securely destroy your personal information in accordance with our data retention policy, applicable laws and regulations.</p>
<p>If we wish to retain your personal information on file, on the basis that a further opportunity may arise in future and we may wish to consider you for that, we will write to you separately, seeking your explicit consent to retain your personal information for a fixed period on that basis.</p>
