What kind of data do we process?

When you apply to Sound & Vision as an employee, volunteer, temporary worker or trainee, Sound & Vision processes personal data that may be relevant to the recruitment and selection procedure. This concerns in all cases the data as provided by the applicant, including information from their CV and cover letter: first and last name, gender, date of birth, address, telephone number, email address, possibly a photo or video if attached, availability, salary expectations and information about education and employment history.

How do we obtain personal data?

We obtain the personal data from the applicant, the temporary employment agency or recruitment agency that we engaged, sometimes by post, usually via email and also by way of personal contacts or telephone conversations.

Why do we process personal data?

These personal data are only used as part of a responsible, effective and efficient recruitment and selection process. We collect and use the applicant’s data:

  • To compare the applicant’s data with the current vacancies at Sound & Vision;

  • to determine whether the applicant is eligible for a position within Sound & Vision;

  • only with permission: to include his or her data in a portfolio;

  • for communication purposes with regard to the recruitment and selection procedure;

  • to contact the applicant to schedule a job interview;

  • to provide the applicant with information about other relevant vacancies;

  • in selection procedures in which an assessment and/or psychological test is conducted, the relevant data are passed on to the agency that conducts these tests;

  • if an applicant is hired, the obtained personal data can be further processed for the implementation of the employment agreement/volunteer agreement/temporary employment contract/internship agreement, including drafting or arranging for the drafting of the employment agreement/volunteer agreement/temporary employment contract/internship agreement, for administrative purposes and to introduce the applicant within our organisation. For this, the privacy statement for employees also applies.

On what grounds do we use personal data?

  • The legitimate interest to determine which applicant(s) are eligible for a position within Sound & Vision.

  • Your permission for a portfolio.

How long do we keep your data?

We keep the applicants’ data for up to a maximum of four weeks after completion of the recruitment and selection procedure unless explicit permission has been given by the applicant for us to keep his/her data for up to one year longer.

Is your data shared with other parties?

In consultation with the applicant, we can share the data with an assessment agency. These parties process personal data in accordance with the assignment that we give them.
