Your data and withdrawing consent

When you apply, you agree to some things and can choose others. This page explains what you agreed to, how to withdraw from the talent pool yourself, and how cookies are handled on our website.

What you agree to when you apply

• AI screening. The apply form tells you your CV is screened with AI-assisted tools and that a person makes every hiring decision. By applying you agree to this processing, and that agreement is recorded with your application. See How AI is used on your application.
• The talent pool, only if you choose it. Ticking the talent pool box is optional. Your choice, and who may consider you, is recorded too.

Each of these is stored as a separate record with the date and time you gave it.

Withdraw from the talent pool

You can leave the talent pool at any time, without emailing anyone.

1. 1

   Step 1: Open your status page

   Use the Track your application link you saved when you applied. See Tracking your application.

2. 2

   Step 2: Press Withdraw

   In the Talent pool section. You'll see You've been withdrawn from the talent pool.

From then on you aren't matched to other roles. Withdrawing doesn't affect the application you already made.

Your consent history is kept intact

Consents are never overwritten. When you withdraw, a new record is added saying so, and the original record of your agreement stays. That way the history shows exactly what you agreed to and when you changed your mind, which is what a data protection review asks to see.

Other requests about your data

The company you applied to is responsible for your application and decides how long to keep it. Deleting an application removes its CV, its assessment and its emails. Talent pool entries expire after twelve months.

To ask what data is held about you, to correct it, or to withdraw a consent other than the talent pool, write to our Data Protection Officer as described in our privacy policy. For an application, we involve the company that holds it.

Cookies

Our public website asks before setting analytics cookies.

• Analytics cookies are only set if you press Accept. Reject works just as well and is remembered just as long.
• Your choice is remembered for a year. Cookie settings in the website footer reopens the banner so you can change it.
• Cookies that keep people signed in are always on, because the site doesn't work without them.
• Apply pages, status pages, introduction pages and the hiring companies' workspaces are never measured, so nothing that identifies you as an applicant reaches the analytics.

The details are in our cookie policy.
