This Privacy Policy describes how HumanQuest collects, uses and safeguards personal information that you may provide to us. When we refer to personal information we mean information or an opinion about you, from which your identity is apparent or can be reasonably ascertained.
We are committed to promoting confidence in the manner in which your personal information is handled by us. In this regard, we will act ethically and as evidence of this commitment, we will comply with the privacy and data protection requirements of the countries in which we operate.
In general, you can visit HumanQuests website without telling us who you are and without revealing any information about yourself. However there may be occasions when you choose to give us personal information. Generally this will be for the purposes of:
• receiving further information from us or; • for recruitment, selection and development purposes by potential employers, managing recruitment and human resource processes and any related purpose where you have consented to the collection. We do not collect information about our visitors from other sources, such as public records or bodies, or private organisations. We do not collect or use personal data for any purpose other than those indicated above and will ask you when we need information that personally identifies you or allows us to contact you. If we wish to use your personal data for a new purpose, we offer you the means to consent to this new purpose by indicating in a box at the point on the site where personal data is collected.
If we require you to provide certain personal information about yourself for the purposes described above, we will not rent, sell or exchange information about you to third parties except to your employers or potential employers, where you consent, where you would reasonably expect the information to be disclosed or where we are legally required to disclose such information.
We may automatically log personal data or link information automatically logged by other means with personal data about specific individuals. However, we will only use this information to help us respond to queries you may have about our products or services or to tell you about other HumanQuest products and services that we think you may be interested in. We will not pass this information on to any third parties. The Internet browser that you use may make use of a feature called a "cookie" to assign identification to your computer. We do not use cookies to store personal data or to link personal data to non-personal data, unless you have first agreed to this by selecting the "Remember Me" option. If you select this option a cookie will be placed on your computer which will allow our website www.humanquest.eu to recognise you when you return to our website. No personal information will be stored in this cookie.
Like most web site providers, we analyse server log files to collect statistical information about how our web sites are used. This type of information is collected only at an aggregate level and includes browser types, Internet service providers, referring/exit pages, platform types, date/time stamps and other broad demographic data. Such data is not linked to personally identifiable information.
We protect the quality and integrity of your personally identifiable information and we have implemented appropriate technical and organisational measures to do so. HumanQuest operates its own Internet Data Centre that is designed to keep mission critical human resource services and data online and secure at all times.
We have implemented security policies, rules and technical measures to protect the personal data that we have under our control from:
All our employees and data processors, who have access to and are associated with the processing of personal data, are required to respect the confidentiality of our visitors' personal data. We ensure that your personal data will not be disclosed to State institutions and authorities except if required by law or other regulation.
The HumanQuest web sites do not publish content or collect data that is targeted at children.
If at any time you wish to change personal information that is incorrect or wish to have your personal information deleted, please contact us in writing via the address below. Unless personal information is required to be retained by us for administrative or legal reasons, HumanQuest will meet such requests at the earliest possible opportunity by deleting or amending your personal information where appropriate.
Our privacy policy and compliance with that policy are maintained through a voluntary self-assessment procedure, and compliance with all relevant local laws.
We are committed to providing a fair and responsive system for handling and resolving complaints concerning the handling of personal information. You have a right to complain and to have your complaint handled efficiently if you are concerned about our handling of your personal information. We believe that any complaint that we may receive is a valuable opportunity to improve the services that we deliver to you and to maintain your confidence in our services. If at any time you wish to lodge a complaint in respect of the handling, use or disclosure of your personal information by us, you may do so by contacting our Privacy Officer at the address below.
We aim to investigate and advise you of the outcome of the complaint promptly. If you are not satisfied with our handling of your complaint, you may contact your local data protection registrar.
HumanQuest will occasionally update this privacy statement. When we do, we will also revise the "last updated" date at the top of this privacy statement and post notification of change on web site home pages or other places we deem appropriate.
