You can browse this website without being asked to provide any personal information, but we obviously require a certain amount of information from you to allow us to provide our services and answer your queries.
We only ever ask you to provide the minimum required to allow us to do that – name, address email and telephone number.
We may use web analytics tools when you browse the website that may record things like your IP address, browser type, browser plug-ins, operating system, time zone settings etc.
And to make it easier for you to use the website we usecookies, which record data about the pages you browse and the services that you view.
We do NOT knowingly collect or store anything that is categorised as sensitive under the terms of the GDPR, including racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade union membership, health, sex life or sexual orientation, and genetic and/or biometric data.
We use this information to provide you with the services we offer and to make your experience easier and more enjoyable.
Principally, that means:
We do this on the basis that it is necessary to meet our legitimate business interests (where of course they don't compete with your rights).
You always have the right to withhold your personal information or request that we not process it. (See more about your rights below.) However, that may result in us not being able to provide services to you or our service being significantly impaired.
For instance, our communications are designed to tell you about the benefits we can offer, so that you have exclusive access to new opportunities. We use the information we have about you to tailor the content and try to ensure that the information is relevant to you as possible.
We may send your personal data to our clients where you have applied for a role. Cultura Recruitment Ltd policy is to always seek your express prior permission before submitting you for a role – it is important that you have all the relevant information on the role and employer, and are happy to be taken forward in the process. We will never submit your details to a potential employer without speaking to you first. In addition, we may be required by law (legal compliance) to process your personal data – for instance, to comply with a court order.
We will not knowingly disclose any information held about you to a third party except in the following circumstances:
a. Where required to do so by law.
b. In connection with any legal proceedings or prospective legal proceedings.
c. In order to establish, exercise or defend our legal rights.
d. At the request of a purchaser, or prospective purchaser, of any business or asset which Cultura Recruitment Ltd is offering for sale.
e. To any person or organisation Cultura Recruitment Ltd may reasonably believe may apply to a court or other authority for disclosure of that personal information where, in Cultura Recruitment Ltd's reasonable opinion, such court or authority would be reasonably likely to order its disclosure.
We would like to contact you by email to let you know of any new job opportunities that may interest you. When you complete a contact form, therefore, you should expect to receive marketing emails from us unless you opt out at the point of completing the form.
However, you have the right at any stage to change your mind and unsubscribe (or indeed resubscribe). Please see below for details.
If you no longer wish to receive marketing communications from us, we're committed to making it as easy as possible to unsubscribe.
You can email us directly at apply@culturaconnect.co.uk to let us know what marketing communications you want – or don't want – to receive and we will adjust your preferences accordingly.
You have the right to know what personal data we hold and how it is being processed.
