As data controller we will ensure that any data processors protect your information as well as ourselves, and that they are bound by the same limitations as we are regarding the use of your data.

2. Candidates

For the sake of clarification, candidates are experts that are stored in our data base for potential vacancies. In contrast, consultants are experts who are placed with a client.

2.1. Description of the purpose
Adding professional experts to our database and maintaining the data in order to match consulting resources with the needs of our clients.

2.2. Potential Data Subject

2.5 Legal basis
The storage of your data with us is made to fulfil our obligations under agreement with you. Before you enter your data, you will be informed and expressly accept that this involves a mandate for us to find client requests that match your profile.

Therefore, the legal basis for the processing is the performance of a contract [Art. 6 (1) b) GDPR]. If you have never contractually mandated us as mentioned above (this is especially the case for candidates sourced from our entities in France, Germany and UK before 12th September 2022), the legal basis for the processing is our legitimate interest in accordance with Art. 6 (1) f) GDPR: We assume that as a personnel service provider we have a legitimate and recognisable interest in successfully placing a seeker of a consulting role or other market participants.

2.6. Retention period
Records of candidates are retained in the database for up to five years from the last business contact with that person.

In addition, there may be a service that you can optionally subscribe to our newsletters, also administered by Active Campaign, with invitations to events held by emagine (such as Christmas party and seminars), special activities (such as satisfaction surveys or games for consultants with active contracts) and general consultant news.

The legal basis is the consent you have provided to us in accordance with Art. 6 (1) a) GDPR. You can subscribe to these on the website and unsubscribe via links in the emails sent under this category. The personal data pertaining to newsletter subscriptions will be deleted 2 years after the last newsletter was sent, or earlier if you have unsubscribed from the newsletter.

It may also be offered to optionally subscribe to our job agent on the job site. This will provide you with relevant jobs that relate to you your job agent setting straight in you inbox. It can be unsubscribed via the link in the sent email. The legal basis for this processing is article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR as the processing is necessary for us to fulfil our agreement with you regarding sign-up to the job agent.

Note: We sometimes send our newsletters to a subset of our consultants, so being subscribed is no guarantee that you receive all mailings.

3. Consultants

5.6. Retention period

Data Subject Rights

The applicable data protection law grants you comprehensive data protection rights (rights of information and intervention) vis-à-vis us with regards to the processing of your personal data, about which we inform you below:

1. Right of access (Art. 15 GDPR)

In particular, you have a right of access to your personal data processed by us and further information as listed in Art. 15 GDPR.

2. Right to rectification (Art. 16 GDPR)

You have the right to have incorrect data concerning you corrected and/or incomplete data held by us completed without delay.

3. Right to erasure (Art. 17 GDPR)

You have the right to request the deletion of your personal data if the conditions of Art. 17 (1) GDPR are met. However, this right does not exist in particular if the processing is necessary for the exercise of the right to freedom of expression and information, for the fulfilment of a legal obligation, for reasons of public interest or for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims.

Please note that deletion from a newsletter has to be demanded seperately through the link in the respective newsletter mail.

4. Right to restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR)

You have the right to demand the restriction of the processing of your personal data as long as the accuracy of your data which you dispute is verified in the following circumstances:

- You oppose deletion of your personal data and requests restriction instead in case of unlawful processing;
- You require your personal data to be kept in order to establish, exercise or defend a legal claim after we no longer need these data since the purpose has been achieved;
- You have lodged an objection for reasons relating to your particular situation, and we are considering whether our legitimate grounds override yours.
- You contest the accuracy of your personal data and we are verifying it.

5. Right to notification (Art. 19 GDPR)

If you have asserted the right to correction, deletion, or restriction of processing vis-à-vis us, we are obliged to notify all recipients to whom the personal data concerning you have been disclosed as part of this correction, deletion or restriction of processing, unless this proves impossible or involves a disproportionate effort. You have the right to be informed of these recipients.

6. Right to data portability (Art. 20 GDPR)

You have the right to receive your personal data that you have provided us with in a structured, common, and machine-readable format or to request transmission of those data to another controller, insofar as this is technically feasible.

7. Right to withdraw consents (Art. 7 (3) GDPR)

You have the right to withdraw at any time any consent you have given to the processing of data. In the event of revocation, we will immediately delete the concerned data. The revocation of consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until the withdrawal.

8. Right to lodge a complaint (Art. 77 GDPR)

If you believe that the processing of personal data relating to you is in breach of the data protection legislation, you have the right - without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy - to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State in which you are resident, your place of work or the place where the alleged breach occurs.

9. Right to object (Art. 21 GDPR)

If we process your personal data on the basis of our legitimate interest, you have the right to object on grounds relating to your particular situation to this processing at any time.

If you exercise your right to object, we will no longer process your personal data. However, we reserve the right to keep processing of your personal data if we can prove that there are compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, fundamental rights and freedoms, or if the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.

If your personal data are processed by us for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purpose of such marketing. You can exercise the right to object as described above.

If you exercise your right to object, we will stop processing the data concerned for direct marketing purposes.
