This privacy information explains how we process personal data when we contact you about a professional opportunity as part of our recruitment consulting or placement services, even though you have not previously applied to us or contacted us.
1. Controller and privacy contact
The controller is Transport Talent International GmbH, Bernstorffstraße 120, 22767 Hamburg, Germany.
Contact for privacy enquiries and exercising your data subject rights: Michel Rothgaenger, email: michel.rothgaenger@transporttalent.com
2. Source of the data
We may collect personal data in particular from publicly accessible professional sources. These can include professional networks, career platforms, publicly accessible company websites, professional profiles and other publicly accessible professional sources.
We will tell you the specific source of your data during our first contact, or it will be apparent from that contact. We will also provide it on request.
3. Data we process
Depending on the source and the specific professional opportunity, we process in particular your first and last name, current and previous professional positions, employers, career history, professional qualifications and skills, professional location, publicly stated contact details, the URL or reference to the professional profile found, and information necessary to assess your general suitability for a specific position.
4. Purposes of processing
We process these data to identify potentially suitable candidates, assess whether a professional position could generally be suitable, contact you personally, introduce a specific professional opportunity and carry out a placement process if you wish to take part.
5. Legal basis
Initial research and direct contact are generally based on our legitimate interests under Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is to identify suitable specialists and executives for specific recruitment mandates in the course of our recruitment consulting and to offer them suitable professional opportunities.
We take your interests, fundamental rights and freedoms into account when selecting data sources, determining the scope of data processed and choosing the form of contact. If a specific placement process begins at your request, the legal bases described in our Privacy Policy may also apply.
6. Disclosure to clients
We do not disclose a candidate profile or application documents to a client merely because we researched or contacted you directly. We introduce you to a specific company only in the context of a specific placement process and in accordance with the conditions described in our Privacy Policy.
7. Retention period
If direct contact does not result in a placement process, we erase the data collected for the contact as soon as they are no longer necessary for that purpose, unless statutory reasons or keeping a record of an objection require limited further storage. The retention periods described in our Privacy Policy apply to a subsequent application or placement process.
8. Right to object
You may object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of your personal data based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR (Article 21 GDPR).
