What personal information does Corpoconsult collect when you engage our Services and why?

When you engage us to provide you with paralegal Services, we collect and use personal information which is necessary for the performance of those Services. 

The majority of the personal information we collect and use to provide our Services is supplied voluntarily by (or collected by us from third party sources at the request of) our clients.  Because of this, if you are a client of Corpoconsult then it will generally be obvious to you what personal information we collect and use. This information may include:    

• Basic information such as your name, the company you work for, your position and your relationship to a person;
• Contact information such as your postal address, email address and telephone number(s);
• Financial information, such as payment related information;
• Identification and background information provided by you or collected as part of our business acceptance process;
• Any other personal information relating to you or other third parties which you may provide to us for the purpose of receiving our Services.

We use this information to facilitate the provision of our Services to you, the client.  In addition, we will process identification and background information as part of our business acceptance, finance, administration and marketing processes, including anti-money laundering, conflict, reputational and financial checks, and to fulfil any other legal or regulatory requirements to which we may be subject. The information our clients provide may be disclosed to third parties to the extent that is reasonably necessary in connection with that work (for example, when seeking advice from external counsel or experts).

Your information is never used for marketing campaigns and is not transmitted to any third parties for marketing purposes.

What information does Corpoconsult collect when you engage in recruitment services?

Corpoconsult collects information from and about candidates in connection with available employment opportunities at Corpoconsult.  This information may include CVs, identification documents, academic records, work history, employment and references.

Corpoconsult uses your personal information to match your skills, experience and education with the specific roles offered by the firm.  This information is passed to the relevant hiring managers and persons involved in the recruitment process to decide whether to invite you for interview.  Corpoconsult will collect further information from you if you are invited to the interview (or equivalent) stage and onwards.

In connection with our recruitment activities, we may also collect special categories of personal information from candidates where we have an employment law obligation to do so, the information is relevant to their future working environment at Corpoconsult or the future provision of employment benefits, or with the individual's explicit consent.  For example, we may need to collect information about a candidate's disabilities in order to provide a suitable working environment for that candidate if they are successful in their application.  We may also ask you to provide diversity information about your race/ethnicity and sexual orientation for diversity monitoring purposes, although the provision of this information will be entirely voluntary.

Corpoconsult may collect personal information about candidates from the following sources:

• Directly from you – for example, information that you have provided when applying for a position directly through the firm's recruitment website;
• From recruitment agencies – for example, when a recruitment agency contacts us to identify you as a potential candidate;
• Through publicly available sources online – for example, where you have a professional profile posted online (e.g. on your current employer's website, or on a professional networking site like LinkedIn); and
• By reference or word of mouth – for example, through a referred from former employee/employer or from a referee you have identified.

When and with whom might Corpoconsult share your personal information?

We may disclose your personal information to the following categories of recipients:

• To third party services providers and partners who provide data processing and security services to us (for example, for Website visitors who subscribe to our blogs, our blog e-mail delivery provider; our website spam security service; or, if you are a candidate, from recruitment agencies we have engaged);
• To any competent law enforcement body, regulator, government agency, court or other third party where we believe disclosure is necessary: (i) as a matter of applicable law or regulation, (ii) to exercise, establish or defend our legal rights, or (iii) to protect your vital interests or those of any other person;
• To a potential buyer (and its agents and advisers) in connection with any proposed purchase, merger or acquisition of any part of our business, provided that we inform the buyer it must use your personal information only for the purposes disclosed in this Privacy Notice; and
• To a person you have given us your consent to disclose to.

Legal basis for processing personal information

Our legal basis for collecting and using the personal information described above will depend on the personal information concerned and the specific context in which we collect it. 

However, we will normally collect personal information from you only where we have your consent to do so, where we need the personal information to perform a contract with you (for example, when providing our Services), or where the processing is in our legitimate interests and not overridden by your data protection interests or fundamental rights and freedoms. In some cases, we may also have a legal obligation to process personal information about you, or may need to process personal information in order to exercise, establish or defend legal claims.

If we ask you to provide personal information to comply with a legal requirement or to perform a contract with you, we will make this clear at the relevant time and advise you whether the provision of your personal information is mandatory or not (as well as the possible consequences, if any,  if you do not provide your personal information).

If you have questions about or need further information concerning the legal basis on which we collect and use your personal information (including any legitimate interests relied upon), please send an email to info@corpoconsult.com

How does Corpoconsult keep my personal information secure?

We use appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect the personal information that we collect and process about you.  The measures we use are designed to provide a level of security appropriate to the risk of processing your personal information. 

International data transfers

Our Website servers are located in Denmark, in the European Union.

We have taken appropriate safeguards to require that the personal information we process will remain protected in accordance with this Privacy Notice when transferred internationally, including when processed internationally by our third party service providers. The safeguards we have taken include implementing the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses for transfers of personal information, which requires our service providers to protect personal information they process from the EEA in accordance with European Union data protection laws.

Our Standard Contractual Clauses can be provided on request. We have implemented similar appropriate safeguards with our third party service providers and partners and further details can be provided upon request.

If you have questions about, or need further information concerning, international data transfers, please send an email to info@corpoconsult.com

Data retention

We will retain personal information we collect from you where we have an ongoing legitimate business need to do so (for example, to provide you with a service you have requested or to comply with applicable legal, tax or accounting requirements). 

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymise it or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

If you have questions about, or need further information concerning, our data retention periods, please send an email to info@corpoconsult.com.

Your data protection rights

You have the following data protection rights:

• If you wish to access, correct, update or request deletion of your personal information, you can do so at any time by sending an email to info@corpoconsult.com;

You can exercise this right by clicking on the “unsubscribe” or “opt-out” link in the marketing e-mails we send you.  To opt-out of other forms of marketing (such as postal marketing or telemarketing), then please email info@corpoconsult.com;  
• Similarly, if we have collected and process your personal information with your consent, then you can withdraw your consent at any time. Withdrawing your consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing we conducted prior to your withdrawal, nor will it affect processing of your personal information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent; and
• You have the right to complain to a data protection authority about our collection and use of your personal information. For more information, please contact your local data protection authority. (Contact details for data protection authorities in the European Economic Area, Switzerland and certain non-European countries (including the US and Canada) are available here.)

We respond to all requests received from individuals wishing to exercise their data protection rights in accordance with applicable data protection laws.

Updates to this Privacy Notice

We may update this Privacy Notice from time to time in response to legal, technical or business developments.
