Retention and Protection of Data

Whether you have applied directly for an open position, submitted a speculative application or been sourced by us through LinkedIn or other channel, if you are unsuccessful at any stage of the recruitment process we may retain your data for a maximum of 6 months. Any of your personal data stored by us will then be erased.

If you have been informed that you may not be considered appropriate for a current or imminent position but may make a suitable candidate for a future position we shall retain your details for a period of up to 2 years.
