Candidate Privacy Notice
Additional information for candidates whose profiles, CVs or recruitment information are processed by Optima.
How candidate information is used
Candidate information may be used to assess experience and suitability, identify relevant opportunities, communicate about roles, arrange interviews, support professional registration and relocation, verify information where appropriate and manage recruitment records.
Sources
We may receive candidate information directly from the candidate, through a referral, from a client, from professional networking platforms or from publicly available professional sources. Where information is not obtained directly from the candidate, we will provide appropriate transparency information within the period required by law, subject to applicable exceptions.
Sharing
Identifiable candidate information may be shared with prospective employers and relevant service providers where necessary for a recruitment or relocation process. We aim to discuss an identifiable introduction with the candidate where appropriate before a CV is sent to a client.
Retention and preferences
Candidate profiles may generally be retained for up to 24 months after the last meaningful interaction where appropriate. Candidates can ask us to update preferences, stop contacting them or delete information, subject to any overriding lawful requirement.
