Your personal data will be processed for the purposes of managing Global Relay’s recruitment related activities. This includes organizing and conducting interviews, assessing your suitability for the role, organizing and conducting tests (as applicable) and evaluating the results of such tests, and other processing activities that Global Relay deems necessary in the recruitment and hiring process. This processing is permitted under Article 6(1)(f) of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR) and Article 6(1)(f) of UK General Data Protection Regulation for the purpose of Global Relay’s legitimate interests, which include growing the business and recruiting and hiring personnel best suited for roles at Global Relay. Further information on our legitimate interests may be available upon request. If you are applying for a role in the UK and Global Relay processes personal data relating to criminal offences or convictions under Article 10 of GDPR and UK GDPR, Global Relay will do so on the condition of “consent” as permitted under Section 29 of Schedule 1 of the Data Protection Act, 2018 (c.12).
