Information we obtain from third party sources.

We may receive personal information about you from third party sources (such as your employer if

they enrol you on a course), or agencies if you apply for study or employment, but only where we

believe that these third parties either have your consent or are otherwise legally permitted or

required to disclose your personal information to us. We collect only the minimum amount of

information required from these third parties to enable us to provide the requested service or

process any application you send to us (for example, your educational or employment history). We

only use the information we receive from these third parties as set out in this Privacy Notice.

Use of your information.

We may use the information for the following purposes:

• to provide you with information or Services you request from us;

• to provide information on other 360 Recruitment products and Services which we feel may be of

interest to you, in accordance with your communications and consent preferences;

through a third party specialist training provider or certification/awarding body;

Government scheme requirements – for example through an Apprenticeship scheme;

However, we may also use your personal information for other purposes that are not incompatible

with the purposes we have disclosed to you (such as statistical purposes) if and where this is

permitted by applicable data protection laws.

If you do not want us to use your data for any marketing purposes, you will have the opportunity to

withhold your consent to this when you provide your details to us.

The personal information you provided to us is stored within secure servers. We use appropriate

we cannot guarantee the security of data sent to us electronically and the transmission of such data

have an ongoing legitimate business need to do so (for example, to provide you with a service you

When we have no ongoing legitimate business or statutory need to process your personal

We offer this functionality in order to generate interest in us, the Website and our Services among

the members of your social networks, and to permit you to share and follow opinions, news and

For some of our Services, your personal information may be transferred to, and processed in,

countries outside of the EEA. However, we have taken appropriate safeguards to require that your

personal information will remain protected in accordance with this Privacy Notice. These measures

include transferring your personal data to third parties who are located in a country which the

European Commission has determined has data protection laws that are at least as protective as

those in Europe, and transferring your personal data to third parties who have entered into

standard contractual clauses with us. For more information about these safeguards please contact

us using the contact details provided below.

Cookies.

We use cookies and similar tracking technology (collectively, "Cookies") to collect and use personal

Lawful basis (EEA visitors only)

Our lawful bases for collecting and using personal information will depend on the personal

information being collected and the specific context in which we collect it.

However, we will normally collect personal information from you only:

• where we need the personal information to perform a contract with you (for example, to enrol

you into a course or provide you with learning materials);

• where the processing is undertaken on the grounds of legitimate interest and is not overridden

by your rights; or

• where we have your consent to do so;

In some cases, we may also have a legal obligation to collect personal information from you.

If we ask you to provide personal information to comply with a legal requirement or to perform a

contact with you, we will make this clear at the relevant time and advise you whether the provision

of your personal information is mandatory or not (as well as of the possible consequences if you do

not provide your personal information).

If we collect and use your personal information in reliance on our legitimate interests (or those of

any third party), this interest will normally be to operate our platform and communicating with you

as necessary to provide our services to you and for our legitimate commercial interest, for instance,

when responding to your queries, improving our platform, undertaking marketing, or for the

purposes of detecting or preventing illegal activities. We may have other legitimate interests and if

appropriate we will make clear to you at the relevant time what those legitimate interests are.

If you have questions about or need further information concerning the lawful bases on which we

collect and use your personal information, please contact us using the contact details provided

below.
