Personal data is used for global recruitment and recruitment procedures of Glaston Corporation.
Individuals may, at their own consent, submit data to the Glaston Oyj CV database for use in all Glaston group’s recruitments.
5 Legal grounds for processing of personal data
5.1 Legitimate interest
Glaston’s right to process personal data of the data subject or applicant is partially based on legitimate interest because the applicant submits his or her personal
data to Glaston for recruitment purposes and is aware that Glaston processes personal data. Glaston has carried out an interest assessment and came to the conclusion that data processing is allowed in this instance.
5.2 Contract
Glaston also processes personal data to prepare and implement a work or service contract.
5.3 Consent
Personal data may also be processed on the grounds of consent to the extent that the applicant agrees to disclose his or her application and all related personal data to companies belonging to the same group as Glaston.
Insofar as the processing of personal data is based on the consent of the data subject, the data subject has the right to withdraw consent to the processing of personal data at any time.
6 The recipients or categories of recipients of the personal data
Personal data shall be disclosed within the limits permitted and required by current legislation. Personal data shall be disclosed to companies belonging to the same group as Glaston for recruitment purposes.
Processing of personal data has been outsourced to the following service providers who process personal data on behalf of the controller:
• Teamtailor Ab – the service provider of the electronic recruitment system.
7 Transfers of personal data to third countries
Personal data shall be transferred to countries outside the EU and EEA to companies belonging to Glaston Corporation.
For the transfer of personal data, the standard contractual clauses of the European Commission or other transfer mechanisms in accordance with applicable laws will be applied to ensure an adequate data protection level.
8 Period for which personal data is stored
Personal data shall be stored for as long as it is necessary for the purpose of the processing of personal data or to comply with the statutory obligations of the controller. The time period for which data is stored takes into account, for example, the time limitations allowed by law and the obligations of Glaston.
• Glaston stores open applications for six (6) months from the submission of the application.
• The time limit for bringing an action for annulment is one year from the announcement of the recruitment decision; therefore, Glaston retains the personal data of the applicants who have responded to job advertisements for at least one (1) year after making a recruitment decision. Open job applications are also stored for one year from the moment of their arrival.
