What information do we collect?

IDA Foundation collects a range of information about you. This includes:

• Your name, address and contact details, including email address and telephone number;
• Details of your qualifications, skills, experience and employment history;
• Motivation letter and other documents provided for an application;
• Information about your current level of remuneration, including benefit entitlements; and
• Information about your entitlement to work in the Netherlands.
• Other data relating to a specific job applicant

IDA Foundation may collect this information in a variety of ways. For example, data might be contained in application forms, CVs or resumes, obtained from your passport or other identity documents, or collected through interviews or other forms of assessment.

We may also collect personal data about you from third parties, such as references supplied by former employers. We will seek information from third parties only once a job offer to you has been made and will inform you that we are doing so.

Data will be stored in a range of different places, including on your application record, in HR management systems and on other IT systems (including email).

How do we obtain your data?

In most cases, we receive the data directly from you. In addition to the information we receive from you, we may also receive and process data from third parties, e.g. former employers through reference checks. We also process data obtained during our interaction with you for example through interviews. In our processing register we record from which sources we have received data.

There may be instances in which the personal information that you provide to us or we collect is considered Sensitive Personal Information under the privacy laws. Those laws define “Sensitive Personal Information” as personal data revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, or trade union membership, and the processing of genetic data, biometric data for the purpose of uniquely identifying a natural person, data concerning health or data concerning a natural person’s sex life or sexual orientation. We will not process Sensitive Personal Information if this can be reasonably avoided.

Why do we process your data?

We need to process your data for one or more of the following reasons:

• To take steps at your request, prior to entering into a contract with you
• We may also need to process your data to enter into a contract with you
• In some cases, we need to process data to ensure that we are complying with legal obligations. For example, it is mandatory to check a successful applicant's eligibility to work in the Netherlands before employment starts.

IDA Foundation has a legitimate interest in processing personal data during the recruitment process and for keeping records of the process. Processing data from job applicants allows us to manage the recruitment process, assess and confirm a candidate's suitability for employment and decide to whom to offer a job. We may also need to process data from job applicants to respond to and defend against legal claims.

What is the legal ground for using your data?

We process your personal data for one of the following reasons:

• We have a legitimate interest in processing your data

  • The recruitment team;
  • The HR team;
  • The respective line managers, or interviewers involved in the recruitment process

How do we secure your data?

We handle your data carefully and take the necessary technical and organisational measures to safeguard sufficient protection of all data. We have put in place technical and organisational measures to protect your data against loss or unlawful processing

How long do we store your data?

If your application for employment is unsuccessful, the organisation will hold your data on file for 4 (four) weeks after the end of the relevant recruitment process. If you agree to allow us to keep your personal data on file, we will hold your data on file for a further 11 (eleven) months for consideration for future employment opportunities. At the end of that period, or once you withdraw your consent, your data is deleted or destroyed. You will be asked when you submit your CV whether you give us consent to hold your details for the full 12 months after closure of the vacancy in order to be considered for other positions or not.

If your application for employment is successful, personal data gathered during the recruitment process will be transferred to your Human Resources file (electronic and paper based) and retained during your employment. The periods for which your data will be held is described in the privacy notice for IDA employees.
