Legal bases for processing

law:
- Performance of a contract: when processing is necessary to take steps at your request
prior to entering into a contract or to perform a recruitment placement agreement. - Legitimate interests: for activities such as candidate matching, internal record‑keeping
and fraud detection, where our interests are not overridden by your rights. - Consent: where you have given clear consent for us to process your personal data for
a specific purpose (for example, marketing or sharing your profile with a particular
client). - Legal obligation: where processing is required to comply with a legal duty (e.g., tax,
employment or immigration checks).

appropriate safeguards in place, such as standard contractual clauses or other lawful

maintain appropriate safeguards. We may also include links to third‑party websites; this
Policy does not apply to those sites and we encourage you to review their policies. - International data transfers
