Sharing Your Personal Data
As part of a multinational with affiliates in several countries, the Company may use resources and hire for its sites, outside the country where you live. Your personal data may be shared with affiliated companies where it is reasonable and necessary to do so, such as to ensure a consistent application of standards for candidate recruitment. Within the Company, your personal data can be accessed by or may be disclosed internally on a need-to-know basis to persons responsible for managing or making hiring decisions, Human Resources staff, system administrators and other support teams (such as IT and Finance).
We also share your personal data with service providers that process personal data on our behalf and subject to our instructions as data processors, for the purpose of providing their professional services to us:
If your application for employment with PKFARE is successful and you accept a job offer from us, your personal data may also be shared as described in our employee privacy notice, and notably with Human Resources management, payroll and benefits systems, and the personal data contained in such systems may be accessible by providers of those systems, their affiliated companies and sub-contractors; tax authorities; regulatory authorities; courts and other judicial authorities; and our lawyers, auditors, investors, consultants and other professional advisors.
PKFARE expects all third parties to process any personal data disclosed to them in accordance with applicable law and contract terms, including with respect to personal data confidentiality and security.
The legal bases relevant for the transfer of personal data to third parties can be found in Section 2 above.
Security of Personal Data
We implement what we determine to be reasonable physical, technical and administrative security standards designed to protect your personal data from loss, misuse, alteration, destruction or damage.
Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password that enables you to access certain parts of our Services, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share a password with anyone. The transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal data transmitted to our systems; any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your personal data, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorized access.
Where We Process and Store your Personal Data
From time to time your personal data will be transferred outside your country for the purposes described in this notice. For example, your personal data may be transferred, among other purposes, to conduct the review of your application, the processing of your details or the provision of support services.
We may share your personal data with colleagues within the Company, or with colleagues at PKFARE affiliates in the United States or China, neither of which has received a relevant decision of the European Commission or UK government confirming that it provides adequate protection to personal data. These transfers to countries that have not been determined by the European Commission to grant adequate protection to personal data are subject to appropriate safeguards; within the PKFARE, we use the standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission, unless GDPR provides for an exception. In addition, we intend to, where necessary, agree on additional measures with recipients to ensure an adequate level of data protection.
We also share data with third parties as described in this Notice, relying either on an adequacy decision (a list of the European Commission’s adequacy decisions can be found at https://commission.europa.eu/law/law-topic/data-protection/international-dimension-data-protection/adequacy-decisions_en) or legally acceptable mechanisms that ensure an adequate level of protection, namely standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission or binding corporate rules. Those third parties may be located in the United States, which has not been determined by the European Commission or UK government to provide adequate protection to personal data, and Spain and the United Kingdom, which have been determined by the European Commission or UK government to provide adequate protection to personal data.
Where applicable, you are entitled, upon request sent to privacy@pkfare.com, to receive a copy of the relevant contract (standard contractual clauses or binding corporate rules) showing that appropriate safeguards have been taken to protect your personal data in connection with such transfer. If we use standard contractual clauses of the European Commission, where the transfer is made to a service provider acting as a data processor for us, we rely on Module Two (transfer from data controllers to data processors). If the transfer is made to third parties (acting as controllers), we rely on Module One (transfer from data controllers to data controllers).
Retention of your personal data
Your personal data will generally only be stored until the personal data is no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which it was collected (or otherwise processed).
If we cannot offer you the job for which you apply, we will delete your personal data in accordance with the requirements of applicable law.
As an exception, personal data may be stored longer where processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation – including compliance with statutory retention periods – to which we are subject or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.
Your Rights
Subject to any specific conditions provided under applicable data protection law, you have the following rights in respect of your personal data:
Where your personal data is subject to restriction we will only process it with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
