How we receive information and how we may use it

Retail Jobs UK receive your personal data when you apply directly for an advertised role via our website - either when you apply directly to be a candidate from a job search, upload your CV to our website or via a third party when you respond to a job advert placed by Retail Jobs UK on a job board on behalf of a third party client.

Due to the nature of permanent recruitment, some candidates wish to reconnect with Retail Jobs UK several months or years after we have placed them in a role. For this reason, your consent includes explicit consent to retain your personal details until such time as you wish us to delete your records from our database or refrain from further engagement.
