Recruitment Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 5, 2023

What we collect, where we store it, and how long we keep it

When you apply for a job at High Systems (the company), we may store your data. Your information is located in High Systems (the application). Candidate data we collect and process in High Systems are used for selection purposes only. Access to your personal information is limited to High Systems employees who participate in the selection process.

We collect and store these data because we have a legitimate interest: we are trying to hire for a position and we need information from any candidate who applies for the role. If you apply for a job at High Systems, we ask for your explicit consent so that we can accept your application information, transfer it to the US, and review your candidacy.

For more information about your rights to your data, please view our general privacy policy; all the rights outlined there also apply to your data as a candidate.

We keep records in Workable for all applicants, and Workable records consist of:

• Your job application materials (full name, e-mail address, your answers to any short answer questions required in the application, your cover letter, your CV/resume);
• Internal assessment notes about your application;
• Emails with you concerning the selection process.

We keep records in High Systems for some applicants, only those who progress to later selection rounds, and High Systems records consist of:

• Your job application materials (full name, e-mail address, your answers to any short answer questions required in the application, your cover letter, your CV/resume);
• Internal assessment notes about your application and interviews;
• Reference contact information and notes on the results of reference checks.

For most candidates, we'll store your data in High Systems until we successfully fill the open position. We'll keep your personal data for up to two years if you advance to a take-home exercise or interview stage of our hiring process. We do this to maintain a pool of recent, qualified applicants, should the position re-open or should we decide to hire for another similar role. You can ask us to access, correct, update, or delete your data at any time by emailing, careers@highsystems.io.

If you submit an unsolicited job application through a channel other than Workable, you'll receive direction to re-submit your application through Workable. Any personal information you've included, like a resume, will be immediately deleted.

If you have questions about your personal data as a job applicant, you can contact: careers@highsystems.io.

If you are in the EU, you can identify your specific authority to file a GDPR complaint at https://edpb.europa.eu/about-edpb/board/members_en.

Complete information about how we protect all data stored within High Systems can be found in our Privacy policy and Security overview.
