Sharing Your Data

We treat your personal data with care and will never share it without a clear reason to do so. We may share your data with:

Your data may be stored securely using trusted third-party platforms, including Microsoft and Google. Both are recognised as compliant with UK data protection requirements.

How Long We Keep Your Data

We retain your personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected — including to provide recruitment services, comply with legal obligations, and resolve any disputes.
