3. Legal Basis for Processing

• Consent — when you submit your CV via our website, you explicitly consent to us storing and processing your data for recruitment purposes.
• Legitimate Interests — for employer contacts, we process data to fulfil our recruitment services.

• Service providers — email delivery, web hosting, and CV storage providers who are bound by data processing agreements.
• Regulatory bodies — where required by law.

6. Data Retention

We retain candidate data for up to 2 years from the date of submission, or until you request deletion — whichever comes first. Employer contact data is retained for the duration of our business relationship plus 2 years. Enquiry data is retained for 12 months.

7. Security

All CVs are stored securely and scanned for malicious content before processing. Access to candidate data is restricted to authorised Valtora personnel only. Data is transmitted over encrypted connections (HTTPS).
