II.What data is collected and why?
1.Recruitment form (Send your CV)
When a CV is submitted through the recruitment form, the following data is processed:
- first name and last name,
- email address,
- phone number,
- the contents of the CV and, optionally, of an additional file (e.g. a cover letter, portfolio),
- data provided voluntarily in the “Additional information” field (e.g. availability, expected rate).
Purpose: conducting recruitment processes — contacting candidates about job offers that match their profile. A submitted CV may undergo automated analysis to make matching with offers easier (see section II.4).
Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR — the voluntary consent of the data subject.
Retention period: 24 months from the date the data is provided, unless consent is withdrawn earlier. After this period, the data is deleted automatically.
2.Contact (form, email, phone)
When the Controller is contacted, the data provided by the user is processed (e.g. first name, email address, message content).
Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR — the Controller's legitimate interest in handling enquiries.
Retention period: for as long as necessary to handle the enquiry, and then for the limitation period of any potential claims.
3.Cooperation with business clients
In connection with providing recruitment services to companies, the contact details of persons representing clients (full name, position, email, phone) are processed, together with company details and the content of the cooperation agreements concluded.
Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (performance of a contract), Art. 6(1)(c) (tax and accounting obligations) and Art. 6(1)(f) (legitimate interest in maintaining business relationships).
Retention period: for the duration of the cooperation and for the period required by law (including 5 years for tax documents).
4.Automated CV analysis
A submitted CV is automatically analysed by the Anthropic Claude language model running in the Amazon Bedrock service in the European Union region (Frankfurt). The purpose of the analysis is to extract information contained in the CV (including technologies, experience, language skills and professional links) to make it easier to match the candidate with offers. The results of the analysis are visible only in the administration panel. The model is not trained on the submitted data. The analysis does not make decisions about the candidate that produce legal effects within the meaning of Art. 22 GDPR.
5.Cookies and website analytics
Details about cookies are described in section VII of this Policy.
III.Who is data shared with?
Data may be shared only with trusted entities that the Controller works with and that guarantee an adequate level of data protection:
- the cloud infrastructure provider (Amazon Web Services EMEA SARL) — application hosting, CV file storage, databases, sending emails, CV analysis; EU region (Frankfurt),
- the CDN, DNS and attack protection provider (Cloudflare, Inc.) — delivering the website,
- the email service provider (Google Ireland Ltd.) — handling the kinga@kbrecruit.eu mailbox,
- an accounting firm — to the extent necessary for financial administration,
- public authorities, where required by law.
A data processing agreement (DPA) compliant with Art. 28 GDPR has been concluded with, or applies to, each of the above providers. Personal data is not sold to third parties.
IV.Transfers of data outside the European Economic Area
The Controller's core infrastructure (AWS Frankfurt) is located in the European Union. Some tools used by the Controller (Cloudflare, Google Workspace) may transfer limited technical data to countries outside the EEA. In such cases, this takes place on the basis of standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission or on the basis of an adequacy decision.
V.Rights of data subjects
Every person whose data is processed has the following rights:
- the right of access — to request a copy of the data being processed,
- the right to rectification — if the data is inaccurate or incomplete,
- the right to erasure (the right to be forgotten) — in specific cases provided for by law,
- the right to restriction of processing — e.g. while an objection is being considered,
- the right to data portability — to receive the data in a machine-readable format,
- the right to object — to processing based on the Controller's legitimate interest,
- the right to withdraw consent — at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal,
- the right to lodge a complaint with the President of the Personal Data Protection Office in Poland (UODO, ul. Stawki 2, 00-193 Warszawa).
To exercise the above rights, contact the Controller by email: kinga@kbrecruit.eu. A response will be provided without undue delay, and no later than within 30 days.
VI.Data security
The Controller applies appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, loss or destruction. The website uses an encrypted HTTPS connection.
CV files are stored in private, encrypted storage (AWS S3, SSE-S3 encryption) and are automatically scanned for malware (AWS GuardDuty Malware Protection) before being made available to the administrator. Access to the administration panel is secured by magic-link sign-in and a session token with a limited lifetime. All compute and database infrastructure runs exclusively in the EU region (Frankfurt).
