Privacy Policy
This privacy policy explains how Ebor Recruitment collects, uses and protects your personal information when you visit this website or use our recruitment services. Please read it carefully.
Who we are
Ebor Recruitment is the data controller responsible for your personal information. You can contact us by email at enquiries@eborrecruitment.com.
Information we collect
If you register with us as a candidate, we may collect your name, contact details, current or most recent job title, employment history and qualifications, the sectors and types of role you are interested in, your CV, and the details of any referees you choose to provide, including their name, job title, organisation and contact address. Where you are applying for a role in education or another setting that works with children, we may also collect information about your Enhanced DBS check status as part of our safer recruitment process.
If you contact us as a school or employer, we may collect your name, job title, organisation name and contact details, and the details of the vacancy or requirement you share with us.
We also collect some technical information automatically when you visit the website, such as your IP address, browser type, and how you use the website, including through cookies. See the Cookies section below for more detail.
How we use your information
We use your information for the following purposes.
- To register you as a candidate and match you with suitable opportunities.
- To respond to enquiries from schools and employers and to provide our recruitment services to them.
- To contact your referees, where you have provided their details, in order to request a reference.
- To carry out safer recruitment checks required for roles in education and childcare settings, including scrutinising references and verifying Enhanced DBS check status, in line with the Department for Education statutory guidance Keeping Children Safe in Education.
- To contact you about your registration or enquiry, and, where you have agreed to this, about other opportunities that may be relevant to you.
- To meet our legal and regulatory obligations.
Our legal basis for this processing is usually the performance of a contract or steps taken at your request before entering into one, our legitimate interests in operating a recruitment business and meeting safeguarding obligations, your consent where we ask for it, or a legal obligation placed on us.
References and DBS information
Reference and DBS related information can include details about criminal convictions or offences, which receives extra protection under data protection law. We only process this information where it is necessary for our safer recruitment obligations, we do not use it for any other purpose, and access to it is limited to the members of our team who need it to carry out these checks.
Who we share your information with
- The schools, colleges and employers you ask us to put you forward to, so far as necessary to consider you for a role.
- Your referees, where you have given us their details and asked us to approach them.
- The Disclosure and Barring Service and any umbrella body we use to process DBS applications, where relevant to your application.
- Service providers who support our website and IT systems, acting on our instructions.
We do not sell your personal information to any third party.
How long we keep your information
We keep candidate and enquiry information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide our services and to meet our legal, accounting and reporting requirements, after which it is securely deleted or anonymised.
Keeping your information secure
We use appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your information against unauthorised access, loss or misuse. If you have any concerns about the security of your information, please contact us at enquiries@eborrecruitment.com.
