What is the purpose of this document?

This notice explains what personal data (information) we hold about you, how we collect it, and how we use and may share information about you during our relationship with you and after it ends. We are required to notify you of this information under data protection legislation.

 

We will comply with the data protection principles when gathering and using personal information. It is therefore important that you read this notice (sometimes referred to as a ‘Transparency Notice’), together with any other privacy notice we may provide on specific occasions when we are collecting or processing personal information.

 

We are a ‘data controller’ and gather and use certain information about you. This information is also used by our affiliated entities and group companies, and so, in this notice, references to ‘we’ or ‘us’ includes all TSR Leadership group companies.

 

This notice applies to all people liaising with us, including suppliers, customers, fixed and full-time contractors,  as well as people who have supplied their details to us not in relation to a specific assignment. Individual contractors, freelance workers and employees of suppliers or other third parties put forward for assignments with customers (“Customers”) as part of a managed service provider programme or recruitment processing outsourcing service offering or otherwise will be treated as contractors for the purposes of this Transparency Notice (hereinafter referred to collectively as “Contractors”).

 

Whilst the reference to Customers in this Transparency Notice is, in itself self-explanatory, this category covers our customers, clients and others to whom TSR Leadership provides services in the course of its business.

 

What personal information are we collecting?

Personal data, or personal information, means any information relating to an identified of identifiable natural person. An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly. It does not include data where the identity has been removed (anonymous data).

 

There are special categories of more sensitive personal data which require a higher level of protection, please see later for more information.

your name, title, addresses, telephone numbers, and personal email addresses;

age/date of birth;

gender information;

next of kin and emergency contact information;

financial information (where we need to carry out financial background checks);

extra information that we may find from other third-party sources;

Particularly sensitive personal information

We process special categories of personal information in the following circumstances:

We process information about you relating to criminal convictions for the purpose of carrying out a DBS check.  We only do this where required by law or where this is a condition of contract imposed by a Customer for the assignment we are liaising over.  We will contact you prior to carrying out such checks.  If there is no legal obligation to undertake these checks we only do so with your consent.

If you voluntarily provide us with special category information we may share this with our Customer.  Our lawful basis for processing in this case is that you have voluntarily made the information public.

Less commonly, we may process special category information where it is needed to protect your vital interests (or someone else's interests) and you are not capable of giving your consent, or where it is in the substantial public interest.

Otherwise we will only process special category information with your consent.

We will sometimes collect additional information from third parties including former employers, credit reference agencies or other background check agencies.

 

We will collect information from publicly available sources including social media sites such as LinkedIn.

 

For contractors, we will collect feedback from our Customers on your performance during the course of your assignment.

 

We may from time to time collect information automatically.
