LCY’s data protection responsibilities
“Personal data” is any information that relates to an identifiable natural person. Examples of your personal data include your name, address, contact details, and CV.
The term “process” means any activity relating to personal data, including, by way of example, collection, storage, use, consultation and transmission.
LCY is the "controller" of your personal data for the purposes of your application. This is a legal term – it means that we make decisions about how and why we process your personal data and, because of this, we are responsible for making sure it is used in accordance with data protection laws.
What types of personal data do we process and where do we get it from?
We process many different types of personal data about you for lots of reasons (which are set out in the table below).
If any of the personal information you have given to us changes, such as your contact details, please inform us without delay by calling the telephone number provided as part of the application information.
We cannot administer our employment or other relationship with you without your personal data. Where it is not mandatory to provide your personal data, we will make this clear, for instance, it is not mandatory for you to provide us with information as to your ethnicity or sexual orientation, but if you provide us with this information, we will use it to allow us to identify if there are any groups of individuals that are under-represented in the groups of applicant for vacancies at LCY.
This information may either be provided by:
you, either on your application form, your CV or during any interviews;
by other parties, such as former employers, Government Departments and/or agencies, such as Department for Works and Pensions, Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs and the Disclosure and Barring Service; or
created by us (such as comments and feedback).
What do we do with your personal data, and why?
We process your personal data for particular purposes in connection with your application, and, if your application is successful, to allow us to undertake employee checks, including checking references, as well as to comply with legal obligations imposed on us before confirming any job offer.
We are required by law to always have a so-called “lawful basis” (i.e. a reason or justification) for processing your personal data. There are a number of different lawful bases for processing (and for some processing activities, we consider that more than one legal basis may be relevant – depending on the circumstances) including:
necessary for us to comply with a legal obligation;
necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by LCY and that we consider that this overrides your interests or fundamental rights which require protection of personal data;
necessary for the purposes of substantial public interests; and
necessary for us to take steps, at your request, to potentially enter into an employment contract with you, or to perform it.
If you choose not to provide the relevant personal data to us, we may not be able to enter into or continue our contract of employment or engagement with you, or provide any additional benefit or service to you that you have applied for, and to which we require that relevant personal data.
Who do we share your personal data with, and why?
From time to time we may ask third parties to carry out certain business functions for us, such as the administration of our payroll and our IT support. These third parties will process your personal data on our behalf (as our processor). We will disclose your personal data to these parties, only where necessary, so that they can perform those functions. Before we disclose your personal data to other people, we will make sure that they have appropriate security standards in place to make sure your personal data is protected and we will enter into a written contract imposing appropriate security standards on them. Examples of these third party service providers include service providers and/or sub-contractors, include our outsourced payroll, HR and marketing service providers, and our IT systems software and maintenance, back up, and server hosting providers.
In certain circumstances, we will also disclose your personal data to third parties who will receive it as controllers of your personal data in their own right for the purposes set out above, where the relevant disclosure is:
if we buy or sell our business (or part of it) in connection with a share or asset sale, we may disclose or transfer your personal data to the prospective seller or buyer and their advisors; and
if we need to disclose your personal data in order to comply with a legal obligation, to enforce a contract or to protect the rights, property or safety of our employees, customers or others.
We have set out below a list of the categories of recipients with whom we may share your personal data, where it is necessary to do so:
Government bodies, including HMRC, DWP;
Organisations providing goods and/or services on our behalf, including third party contractors. These may include organisations providing back-up storage services and other IT services;
Our Auditors;
Medical practitioners, including occupational health advisors;
The Disclosure and Barring Service for Criminal Records Checks;
Any contractors providing services required in relation to your application, including our legal advisors;
Regulatory bodies, for example the CAA;
Your former employer(s) and/or referees;
Our legal advisors;
Consultants and other professional advisors; and/or
Any other third parties, where authorised or directed by you to do so.
At all times we will comply with our obligations under applicable Data Protection Laws.
Retention
If your application is unsuccessful, your personal data will normally be held for a period of 6 months from the date of the decision not to offer you the applied job, unless you have asked us to retain your details to allow us to notify you of any similar vacancies in the future.
If successful, any personal data processed as part of your employment records will normally be held for a period of 7 years from the end of your employment with us, except where we are:
legally required to retain the information for longer;
legally required to delete the information within a specified period of time; or
where the personal data is required in relation to any legal or other type of dispute, either with you or with a third party.
Any personal data contained in any work related correspondence may be retained for longer, dependant on the relevant retention period for that work or matter.

Your rights
You have the right to request the following, in respect of the processing of any of your personal data:

If you chose to do this, this means that we will be unable to further process your personal data for that purpose, but any processing undertaken prior to the withdrawal of your consent would still be deemed lawful.
However, we may not be able to comply with your requests, where the information falling within the scope of your request is exempt, due to the circumstances and/or purposes to which we are processing this information. If this is the case, we will respond to your request explaining the reasons why we are unable to comply with your request.
Within your candidate account, you can also use the Download Data feature to generate an XML file of the current data we hold on you that you have provided and/or have access to within the account.
Where you exercise your right to object or withdraw your consent we may process your personal data without your knowledge or consent where we are permitted or required by law or regulatory requirements to do so. In such a case, we will not process more personal data than is required under the circumstances.
If you are not satisfied by our actions, you can seek recourse through our internal complaints procedure. If you remain dissatisfied, you have the right to refer the matter to the Information Commissioner (www.ico.org.uk) or seek recourse through the courts.
