Recruitment Privacy Notice

Last Updated: May 2020

D2iQ, Inc. and its global affiliates ("D2iQ" or "we") respect your privacy. This Privacy Notice explains who we are, how we collect, share and use personal information about you, and how you can exercise your privacy rights.

The term "applicants" is used in this Notice to refer to anyone who applies for a job role, or who otherwise seeks to carry out work with or for us, or who we wish to evaluate your candidacy for employment (whether on a permanent or non-permanent basis).

If you are in any doubt, or have any comments or questions about this Notice, please contact us using the contact details set out at Section 8 below.

Who is the controller of my information? Please note, for applicants that are resident in the EEA, the controller of your personal information is typically the local D2iQ entity to whom you apply for a role.

Information that we collect automatically

You can visit the recruitment section of our website Careers at D2iQ ("Website") and search for jobs without providing personal information. However, we do collect certain information automatically from your device when you visit our Website. For further information, please see the privacy notice that applies to the use of our Website.

Personal Information collected from you

The types of personal information we collect and process when you apply for a role with the Company includes (but is not limited to):

• Identification data and contact details - including your name, address, email address, phone number (home and mobile) and other contact information, nationality/ies, driving licence and a photograph.
• Employment history such as previous employers, job titles/positions and geographic location.
• Background information such as academic/professional qualifications, degrees, skills, language proficiency, job qualifications, education, details included in your CV/résumé (which might include details of any memberships or interests constituting sensitive personal information), transcripts and employment references.
• Details of your nominated referees (including their name, contact details, employer and job role).
• Details of your immigration/visa status
• Previous applications/roles (information relating to previous applications you have made to the Company's Group and/or any previous employment history with the Company's Group).
• Other information you voluntarily provide throughout the process, including through assessment centres / exercises and interviews.

As a general rule, during the recruitment process, we try not to collect or process any of the following: information that reveals your racial or ethnic origin, religious, political or philosophical beliefs or trade union membership; genetic data; biometric data for the purposes of unique identification; or information concerning your health/sex life ("Sensitive Personal Information"), unless authorised by law or where necessary to comply with applicable laws.

However, in some circumstances and where permitted by applicable law, we may need to collect, or request on a voluntary disclosure basis, some Sensitive Personal Information for legitimate recruitment-related purposes: for example, information about your racial/ethnic origin, gender and disabilities for the purposes of equal opportunities monitoring, to comply with anti-discrimination laws and for government reporting obligations; or information about your physical or mental condition to consider accommodations for the recruitment process and/or subsequent job role. You may provide, on a voluntary basis, other Sensitive Personal Information during the recruitment process.

Personal information collected from other sources

• References provided by referees.
• Other background information provided or confirmed by academic institutions and training or certification providers.
• Information provided by recruitment or executive search agencies.
• Information collected from publicly available sources, including any social media platforms (such as LinkedIn) you use or other information available online.
• Details of your immigration/visa status

(in each case, where permissible and in accordance with applicable law).

We collect and use this personal information primarily for recruitment purposes – in particular, to determine your qualifications for employment and to reach a hiring decision. This includes assessing your skills, qualifications and background for a particular role, verifying your information, carrying our reference checks and to generally manage the hiring process and communicate with you about it.

If you are accepted for a role at the Company, the information collected during the recruitment process will form part of your ongoing staff member record and will be processed in accordance with our Employee Privacy Notice.

We take care to allow access to personal information only to those who require such access to perform their tasks and duties, and to third parties who have a legitimate purpose for accessing it. Whenever we permit a third party to access personal information, we will implement appropriate measures to ensure the information is used in a manner consistent with this Notice and that the security and confidentiality of the information is maintained.

Transfers to other group companies

We may make certain personal information available to third parties who provide services relating to the recruitment process to us, including:

• recruitment or executive search agencies involved in your recruitment;
• data storage, shared services and recruitment platform providers, IT developers and support providers and providers of hosting services in relation to our careers website, e.g. , Greenhouse (recruiting software and job applicant information), Google (cloud storage provider and email system);
• third parties who provide support and advice including in relation to legal, financial / audit, health and safety, security and intel and whistleblowing / reporting issues.

We may also disclose personal information to third parties on other lawful grounds, including:

• Where you have provided your consent;
• To comply with our legal obligations, including where necessary to abide by law, regulation or contract, or to respond to a court order, administrative or judicial process, including, but not limited to, a subpoena, government audit or search warrant;
• In response to lawful requests by public authorities (including for tax, immigration, health and safety, national security or law enforcement purposes);
• As necessary to establish, exercise or defend against potential, threatened or actual legal claims;
• Where necessary to protect your vital interests or those of another person; and/or
• In connection with the sale, assignment or other transfer of all or part of our business.

In some cases, the sharing described above may result in your personal information being transferred internationally, including from the European Economic Area to a country outside it. These countries may have data protection laws that are different to the laws of your country (and, in some cases, may not be as protective).

Specifically, our group companies, affiliated companies and third party service providers operate around the world in the UK, Germany, Sweden, France, the Netherlands and Spain but also outside of the European Economic Area ("EEA") in the US and China. This means that when we collect your personal information we may process it in any of these countries.

However, we have taken appropriate safeguards to require that your personal information will remain protected in accordance with this Notice. This includes implementing the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses (under Article 46.2 of the General Data Protection Regulation) in the context of intra-group transfers of your personal information outside of the EEA.

We may also disclose personal information to third parties on other lawful grounds, including:

• our legitimate interests (as summarized above in Section 3) (which are not overridden by your data protection interests or fundamental rights and freedoms, particularly taking into consideration the safeguards that we put in place, for example, those outlined in Section 4 above);
• to comply with applicable immigration and/or employment laws and regulations;
• to take steps prior to entering an employment contract with you, where you are considered for employment;
• in circumstances where you have made the data public;
• where we have your consent to do so. Where we have requested your consent to process your personal information, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time;
• to protect the rights and interests of the Company's Group, our employees, applicants and others, as required and permitted by applicable law.

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 of the possible consequences 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, please contact us using the contact details provided in Section 8 below.

Personal information will be stored in accordance with applicable laws and kept as long as needed to carry out the purposes described in this Notice or as otherwise required by applicable law. Generally this means your personal information will be retained:

We may also disclose personal information to third parties on other lawful grounds, including:

• in accordance with the retention periods set out in the Company's Data Retention Notice (where you become our employee); or
• for a period of 24 months after confirmation that your application was unsuccessful unless you request that we delete your application.

You may exercise the rights available to you under applicable data protection laws as follows::

• If you wish to access, correct, update or request deletion of your personal information, you can do so at any time by contacting us using the contact details provided below.
• You can object to processing of your personal information, ask us to restrict processing of your personal information or request portability of your personal information. Again, you can exercise these rights by contacting us using the contact details provided below.
• 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.
• 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 are available here.)
