DETAIL LONDON PRIVACY POLICY

This policy explains how personal data is handled.

​

This Privacy Policy applies to personal data collected through the Detail London website, by email, by telephone, and in connection with Detail London’s recruitment services. It does not apply to third-party websites linked from the site.

Only relevant and necessary personal information is collected.

​

Detail London may collect the following personal information, either provided directly by individuals or obtained in connection with its recruitment activities:

​

• Name, email address, telephone number

• CVs, employment history, qualifications, skills

• Communications sent to Detail London

• Preferences related to job opportunities

 

This may include information obtained through professional networks, including publicly available professional profiles, referrals, clients, or other recruitment contacts.

 

Information may be collected when individuals contact Detail London by email, send a CV or other information directly to Detail London, or otherwise communicate with Detail London in connection with its recruitment services.

​

​Detail London takes reasonable steps to ensure that personal data held is accurate and, where necessary, kept up to date.

​

Providing personal information is voluntary. However, Detail London may not be able to consider someone for a role or provide recruitment services if the information needed for that purpose is not provided.

Technical and usage information is collected to run the website effectively.

 

​Detail London collects certain technical and usage information automatically, depending on website functionality and visitors' cookie choices, such as:

​

• IP address

• Device type, browser, and operating system

• Pages visited, time spent, clicks, and URLs

• Approximate location derived from IP address, where available

 

This information is used to operate, maintain, and improve the website and services. Where it constitutes personal data, it is processed in accordance with this Privacy Policy and applicable data protection law.

​​

Technical and organisational measures are in place to protect this data from unauthorised access, loss, or disclosure.

 

Aggregated analytics information that does not identify individuals may be used to understand website performance and usage trends.

Data is used only for recruitment, communication, and other stated purposes.

​

Personal data may be used to:

• Respond to enquiries

• Assess suitability for job opportunities

• Introduce candidates to potential employers where the candidate has agreed to the introduction

• Communicate about recruitment services

• Fulfil legal or regulatory obligations

 

Personal data is never sold.

​

Each processing activity has a lawful basis under UK GDPR. Personal information provided by candidates, including CVs submitted in connection with job opportunities, may be processed where necessary for Detail London’s legitimate interests in providing recruitment services, taking into account the rights and interests of the individual.

 

Withdrawing consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing conducted prior to withdrawal.

Data is only used where there is a lawful reason to do so.
 

Detail London relies on:
 

Legitimate interests – to provide recruitment services, assess and match candidates, respond to enquiries, and run the business.

Contract – where personal data is needed to enter into or perform a contract with an individual.

Legal obligation – where information must be processed or kept to meet legal requirements.

Consent – where consent is required, including for marketing communications. Consent can be withdrawn at any time.

Data is shared only when necessary.

 

Personal data may be shared with:

• Clients or hiring companies in connection with relevant job opportunities, where the candidate has agreed to the introduction

• Service providers and authorised contractors supporting IT, website administration, communications, or hosting

• Legal or regulatory bodies where required by law

 

Service providers and contractors acting on Detail London’s behalf are required to handle personal data securely and in accordance with applicable data protection law.

​

Detail London does not share personal data for marketing purposes without explicit consent.

Safeguards are applied if data is transferred outside the UK.

​

If personal data is transferred outside the UK, Detail London will ensure that the transfer is permitted under UK data protection law and that appropriate safeguards are used where required.

​

Personal data may be accessed by authorised service providers or contractors located outside the UK, including in Canada, where necessary to support Detail London’s operations. Where this involves an international transfer of personal data, Detail London ensures that an appropriate lawful transfer mechanism or safeguard is in place in accordance with UK data protection law.

Data is kept only as long as needed.

 

Personal information is retained only for as long as necessary to provide recruitment services or comply with legal obligations. CVs and candidate data may be retained for consideration for future opportunities. Data no longer needed is securely deleted or anonymised.​

​

Retention periods are regularly reviewed to ensure personal data is not kept longer than necessary.

 Individuals have rights under UK GDPR.

 

Depending on the circumstances, individuals may:

• Access their personal data

• Correct inaccurate data

• Request deletion

• Restrict or object to processing

• Request data portability

• Withdraw consent

 

​Where Detail London uses personal data because there is a legitimate business reason to do so, individuals have the right to object to that use. Detail London will consider the objection and will stop using the information unless there are compelling legitimate grounds to continue, or the information is needed in connection with a legal claim.
