California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)

The California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) requires us to provide California residents with some additional information about the categories of personal information we collect and share, where we get that personal information, and how and why we use it.

The CCPA also requires us to provide a list of the “categories” of personal information we collect, as that term is defined in the law, so, here it is. In the last 12 months, we collected the following categories of personal information from California residents, depending on the Services used:

Identifiers (like your name, contact information, and device and online identifiers);
Characteristics protected by law (for example, you might provide your gender as part of information provided to us);
Internet or other electronic network activity information (such as your usage of our services);
Geolocation data (such as your location based on your IP address);
Audio, electronic, visual or similar information (such as your profile picture, if you uploaded one);
Professional or employment-related information (for example, information you provide in a job application or when you upload a resume); and
Inferences we make (such as likelihood of retention or attrition).

You can find more information about what we collect in the sections above.

We collect personal information provided by you to provide our services for the business and commercial purposes described herein. And we share this information with the categories of third parties described herein.

If you are a California resident, you have additional rights under the CCPA, subject to any exemptions provided by the law, including the right to:

Request to know the categories of personal information we collect, the categories of business or commercial purpose for collecting and using it, the categories of sources from which the information came, the categories of third parties we share it with, and the specific pieces of information we collect about you;
Request deletion of personal information we collect or maintain;
Opt out of any sale of personal information; and
Not receive discriminatory treatment for exercising your rights under the CCPA.

Exercising Your Rights

The CCPA provides California residents with specific rights regarding their personal information. This section describes the rights of California residents under CCPA and provides information on how to exercise those rights.

Right to Know and Data Portability Rights

You have the right to request that we disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of personal information over the past 12 months. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request, we will disclose to you:

The categories of personal information we collected about you;
The categories of sources for the personal information we collected about you;
Our business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling that personal information;
The categories of third parties with whom we share that personal information;
The specific pieces of personal information we collected about you (otherwise known as a data portability request); and
Two separate lists where we have sold or disclosed your personal information for a business purpose:
Sales: identifying the personal information categories that each category of recipient purchased; and
Disclosures for a business purpose: identifying the personal information categories that each category of recipient obtained

Right to Delete

You have the right to request that we delete any of your personal information that we collect from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request (see Exercising Right to Know, Data Portability and Right to deletion<https://www.nextroll.com/privacy#excersingrighttoknow>), we will delete (and direct our services providers to delete) your personal information from our records, unless an exception applies.

We may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service provider(s) to:

Complete the transaction for which we collected the personal information, provide a good or service that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relations with you or otherwise perform our contract with you;
Detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity or prosecute those responsible for such activities;
Exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise their free speech rights or exercise another right provided by law;
Comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code § 1546 et. seq.);
Engage in public or peer-reviewed scientific, historical, or statistical research in the public interest that adheres to all other applicable ethics and privacy laws, when the information’s deletion may likely render impossible or seriously impair the research’s achievement, if you previously provided informed consent;
Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on your relationship with us;
Comply with a legal obligation; and
Make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.

Exercising Right to Know, Data Portability and Right to Deletion

To exercise the access, data portability, and deletion rights described above, please submit verifiable consumer requests to us by contacting us as described in the How to Reach Us section below.

Only you or a person registered with the California Secretary of State that you authorize to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information. You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child.

You may only make a verifiable request for access to data portability twice within a 12-month period. The verifiable consumer request must:

Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative; and
Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot: (i) verify your identity or authority to make the request; and (ii) confirm the personal information relates to you.

We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.

Opting Out from the Sale of Personal Information

We do not consider that the performance of our Services constitutes a ‘sale of personal information’ under the CCPA. Instead, in the course of performing our Services, we disclose personal information for business purposes.

However, we aim to provide consumers with control over the collection and use of their personal information. Consistent with this goal, we will honor requests from consumers to “opt-out” of the collection and disclosure of their personal information.

Non-Discrimination

We will not discriminate against you because you exercise your rights. For example, we will not deny you goods or services or charge you a different price or rate for goods or services if you make an access, deletion, or do not sell request.

Minors and Children

Our Services and the Websites are not intended for use by persons under the age of 18 years. Global Talent Partners does not knowingly collect or solicit personal data from anyone under the age of 13 or knowingly allow such persons to register to use our Website. In the event that we learn that we have collected personal data of a child under the age of 13, we will delete that data to the extent required by applicable law as quickly as possible. If you believe that we might have any personal data from or about a child under 13.

Your rights in respect of the data we hold
Under European GDPR legislation effective from May 25th 2018, the following rights are relevant to your dealings with Global Talent Partners and relate to you having rights under the following 5 areas relating to your personal data:

The right of access
The right to rectification
The right to erase
The right to restrict processing
The right to object
The right of access

You have the right to obtain confirmation that your data is being processed, and have a copy of your personal data.

We will provide a copy of this information free of charge, but we reserve the right to charge a ‘reasonable fee’ when a request is manifestly unfounded or excessive, particularly if it is repetitive. We may also charge a reasonable fee to comply with requests for further copies of the same information.

Information will be provided without delay and at the latest within one month of receipt.

We will extend the period of compliance to two months where requests are complex or numerous. If this is the case, we will inform you within one month of the receipt of the request and explain why the extension is necessary.

The right to rectification
You are entitled to have personal data rectified if it is inaccurate or incomplete.
If the personal data has been disclosed to third parties, we will inform them of the rectification where possible.
We will inform you about the third parties to whom the data has been disclosed where appropriate.
We will respond to a request for rectification within one month. Where requests are complex we will respond within two months.

The right of erasure
The right of erasure is also known as ‘the right to be forgotten’. You can request the deletion or removal of personal data in specific circumstances. The right to erasure does not provide an absolute ‘right to be forgotten’. You have a right to have personal data erased:

Where the personal data is no longer necessary in relation to the purpose for which it was originally collected/ processed.
When you withdraw consent.
When you object to the processing and there is no overriding legitimate interest for continuing the processing.
The personal data was unlawfully processed (i.e. otherwise in breach of the GDPR).
The personal data has to be erased in order to comply with a legal obligation.
The personal data is processed in relation to the offer of information society services to a child.
We will review any request for erasure on a case by case basis.

The right to restrict processing
You have a right to restrict processing of your personal data. When processing is restricted, we can store the personal data, but not further process it. We will keep just enough information about you to ensure that the restriction is respected in future.

If we have disclosed the personal data in question to third parties, we will inform them about the restriction on the processing of the personal data, unless it is impossible or involves disproportionate effort to do so.
If we decide to lift a restriction on processing, we will inform you.

The right to object
You have the right to object to us processing your personal data where the processing is:

Based on legitimate interests of the business; for direct marketing (including profiling); for purposes of scientific/historical research and statistics.

Where we process personal data for our organisation’s legitimate interests, you can object to this.

We will stop processing the personal data until we can demonstrate;
compelling legitimate grounds for the processing; which override your interests, rights and freedoms; the processing is for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

Marketing
We use a combination of legitimate interest and consent when collecting your data dependent on the data collection scenario and the extent of data and level of sensitivity of the data that you share with us.

Our data collection is always in line with the provision of our recruitment services or in line with applying for specific job roles advertised on our site or handled by our organisation. In applying for jobs or registering for use of our services you recognise that subsequent communications about our job search services and associated material and specific opportunities, are of a service nature and not defined as marketing communications. This does not affect your rights to tailor your preferences in terms of the channels through which you receive service based messages or in opting out of receiving such messages.

Where using consent as the basis for processing special category data you should be aware that opting out or not providing consent may compromise your ability to use our service fully.

How long will you hold my information for?
We will hold your information for as long as is necessary to comply with our statutory and contractual obligations and in accordance with our legitimate interests as a data controller and in line with our data retention policy.

How we collect and aggregate information about visitors to our websites
We also collect information about the way job seekers and visitors use this website in order to improve our services. We do not use information gained in this manner in a way that any individual can be identified, and will use it to understand our users better, and to determine aggregate trends, most popular pages, etc., for all the website’s users. We may share this kind of aggregate data with selected third parties to assist with these purposes where you have consented to this. We may also undertake marketing profiling to help us identify services or jobs which may be of interest to you.
