In both cases, we will use the information you provide to us to keep in contact with you. We may use aggregate information (which does not identify you individually) for monitoring purposes.
What about email and other communications?
If you are a client, we will use the details you provide to us to contact you about suitable candidates for your company’s job vacancies. If you are a candidate, we will use the details you provide to us to contact you about job vacancies. In both cases, we may also send you information which we think may be of interest to you. You may elect not to receive such information at any time by sending an email to the contact address at the end of the Policy.
