Where we store your data
The data that you provide to us as set out above may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside of the European Economic Area (EEA) by us and/or by the carefully selected third parties we work with.
We and third parties we work with may use cloud platforms to store your personal information. A cloud is a network of remote servers hosted on the internet. We will only use state of the art cloud platforms which give adequate guarantees that your personal data is secure. We will treat the storage of your personal data to the same level of protection as we treat our commercial information.
Where your data is held outside of the EEA, on a cloud or otherwise transferred, we will ensure this is only to a country which has been deemed adequate by a competent data protection regulator or where adequate protections have been put in place to safeguard the data (to the standards prescribed by law). This includes contractual protections.
We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this notice.

Automated Decision Making
We do not make any decisions about you using automated electronic processes.
For some roles, you may be asked to complete an online assessment such as a personality profile or a Maths/English test. The results of these assessments will always be considered by a person before any decision is made based on them (i.e. you will not be rejected for a role by a computer analysing your results).
