Privacy policy.

Who we are

Oriel Recruitment is a Clerkin Group company, based at Railway Exchange, North Road, Monaghan, H18 YK54, Ireland. We are the data controller for the personal data described in this policy. You can reach us at info@orielrecruitment.com or +353 47 64840.

What we collect

Candidates. When you apply for a vacancy or register with us we collect your name, contact details, CV, work history, qualifications, right-to-work information, references, and notes from our conversations with you. Where a role requires it we may also collect information needed for background checks, with your knowledge.

Clients. For the businesses we recruit for we hold the names, roles and contact details of the people we deal with, along with details of the roles we are engaged to fill.

Website visitors. Our hosting provider records standard server logs, such as IP address and browser type, for security and performance. See Cookies below for what this website stores in your browser.

Cookies

This website does not use cookies to track you, and we do not use analytics or advertising tools. When you close our cookie notice, we store a note in your browser so that it does not appear again.

The map on our contact page is provided by Mapbox. When it loads, Mapbox receives your IP address and stores an anonymous identifier in your browser, which it uses to count how often its maps are loaded. We do not receive or use this information.

When you apply for a role, the application form opens on JobAdder’s website, which has its own cookie policy.

Why we use it

We use candidate data to match you with roles, to put you forward to clients with your agreement, to keep in touch about opportunities, and to meet our legal obligations as a recruitment business. We use client data to deliver the services we have been engaged for and to manage the relationship.

Our legal bases under the GDPR are: performance of a contract or steps taken at your request before entering one; our legitimate interests in operating a recruitment business; compliance with legal obligations; and, where we ask for it, your consent.

Who we share it with

We share candidate details with prospective employers only when you have agreed to be put forward for a role. We use JobAdder, a recruitment software platform, to manage vacancies and applications on our behalf, and trusted providers for hosting, email and document storage. Each acts under a contract that limits what they may do with your data. We do not sell personal data.

Some providers process data outside the European Economic Area. Where that happens we rely on an adequacy decision or the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses.

How long we keep it

We keep candidate records for as long as we are actively working with you and for up to two years after our last meaningful contact, so that we can consider you for future roles. Records relating to a placement are kept for the period required by employment, tax and company law. Client records are kept for the life of the relationship and for six years afterwards. You can ask us to delete your record sooner at any time.

Your rights

You have the right to access the personal data we hold about you, to have it corrected or deleted, to restrict or object to how we use it, to receive a copy in a portable format, and to withdraw consent where we rely on it. To exercise any of these rights, email info@orielrecruitment.com.

If you are unhappy with how we have handled your data you can complain to the Data Protection Commission, 6 Pembroke Row, Dublin 2, D02 X963, or at dataprotection.ie. We would appreciate the chance to resolve it with you first.

Security

We keep personal data on access-controlled systems, limit it to the people who need it to do their job, and review those controls regularly. No system is perfectly secure, and if a breach affects your data we will tell you and the regulator as the law requires.

Changes

We will update this page when our practices change and will show the date of the latest revision at the top. Questions about this policy are welcome at info@orielrecruitment.com, or get in touch.
