the information that you submit to the Website in response Job Specifications. This is necessary
in order to perform our contract (e.g. Terms of Use) with you. Details of your application for a

shared with any other Customer.

5.6.3 If you use the CV Database Service and your profile is set to public we will process your

(a) maintain this personal data in our database of searchable and viewable CVs and resumes
("CV Database");

(b) display your CV or resume and associated personal data for our Customers and customers
of Saon Group Limited and NIJobs.com Limited, so that our Customers and their customers are
able to evaluate whether you are a suitable candidate for a vacant position (whether or not a
Job Specification);

(c) identify and create a profile of the key information you disclosed in your CV or resume,
which we will use for our internal administration purposes to manage the CV Database, to
enhance your personal profile and to match your CV or resume to relevant Job Specifications.
This processing involves profiling, the consequence of which is that the key personal data we
identify from your CV or resume will be used to enhance the likelihood of a Customer, and
customers of Irishstubuzz.net and NIJobs.com, considering you for a Job Specification]; and

(d) identify from your CV or resume key skills based on your current role and job title contained
in your CV or resume, which we will use to match your CV or resume to relevant Job
Specifications. This processing involves automated decision making, including profiling, of the
kind referred to in Article 22 GDPR. The logic of this processing involves assumptions based on
information you submit with your CV or resume, but which you can change at any time by
accessing “Account Settings” in “Your Account” of the Website where you can change the key
skills we selected on your behalf. You can contact us at gdpr@stubuzz.net if you need our assistance

way through your “Your Account” page of the Website.

the Website, products/services, marketing, user/Customer relationships and experience. This involves

effective manner for you and for your computer/device.

5.6.6 We collect and use Identity, Contact, Technical, Usage and Profile Data and Marketing and
Communications Data to send registered users of the Website Job Alerts and Instant Job Alerts by email

specifications you have interacted with in the past 45 days. This is necessary (i) in order for us to
perform our contract (e.g. Terms of Use) with you; and (ii) for our legitimate interest to ensure
registered users are informed of roles relevant to them which in turn improves our service. To facilitate
your ease of use of the Website across multiple devices, Job Alerts by email include a personalised link
which will recognize you when you visit the Website by clicking on a link in the email. This makes it easy
for you to apply for jobs as your name, email address, and link to your last used CV will automatically be

could result in somebody inadvertently applying for a job in your name.

5.6.7 We collect and use Technical, Usage and Profile Data for data analytics purposes to build an
understanding of the sort of jobs registered users of the Website are most interested in by learning
from the jobs you view and apply for to tailor the jobs we present to you. Our understanding of the jobs

products/services and grow our business.

5.6.10 We or a registered Customer may use your Identity and Contact Data to contact you where you
are a registered user or if you have responded to a Job Specification. This is necessary for us to perform
our contract (e.g. Terms of Use) with you and our legitimate interest to perform services for Customers.

16 DATA RETENTION

16.1 We retain personal data for no longer than is allowed under data protection law and, in any case,
no longer than such personal data is necessary for the purpose for which it was processed. To
determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and
sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure, the
purposes for which we process personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through
other means, and the applicable legal requirements.

16.2 As a registered user of the Website we will retain your Identity, Contact, Profile, Technical, Usage,
Marketing and Communications Data for as long as your user account is live. We retain the personal
data you provide while your account is in existence or as needed to provide you access to the Website
and any stubuzz.net Service you have used. Even if you only use the Website or any other stubuzz.net Service
occasionally, we will retain your Identity, Contact, Profile, Technical, Usage, Marketing and
Communications Data until you decide to close your user account. In some cases we retain certain
Usage Data (e.g. visitor and application statistics in a depersonalized or aggregated form). Also, we
retain personal data for longer if required by applicable law or regulation or justified under applicable
statutory limitation periods.

16.3 If you respond to a Job Specification, upload your CV or resume to your personal profile and your
profile is set to public or provide it to a Customer or otherwise communicate with Customers via the
Website a copy of your job application, CV or resume and a record of the communication will be held on
the Customer’s user account. The copy of your job application CV or resume and record of
communication will remain on the Customer's user account for no more than 18 months after the job
specification has been archived. We will delete that copy of your application, CV or resume and record
of communication from the Customer’s user account 18 months from the date the job specification is
archived, unless you have exercised Your Legal Rights of erasure of that personal data before this.
Details of all the job applications you make through the Website can be viewed by you in Your Account.

17 YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS

17.1 Under certain circumstances you have rights under applicable data protection law in relation to
personal data, namely:

17.1.1 Request access to your personal data (commonly known as a “data subject access
request”). This enables you to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you and to
check that we are lawfully processing it.

17.1.2 Request correction of the personal data that we hold about you. This enables you to
have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected, though we may need to
verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us.

17.1.3 Request erasure of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove
personal data where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. You also have the
right to ask us to delete or remove your personal data where you have successfully exercised
your right to object to processing (see below), where we may have processed your information
unlawfully or where we are required to erase your personal data to comply with local law.
Note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for
specific legal reasons which will be notified to you, if applicable, at the time of your request.

17.1.4 Object to processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest
(or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes
you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental
rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal
data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have
compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your rights
and freedoms.

17.1.5 Request restriction of processing of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to
suspend the processing of your personal data in the following scenarios: (a) if you want us to
establish the data's accuracy; (b) where our use of the data is unlawful but you do not want us
to erase it; (c) where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it
to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; or (d) you have objected to our use of your data
but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.

17.1.6 Request the transfer of your personal data to you or to a third party. We will provide to
you, or a third party you have chosen, your personal data in a structured, commonly used,
machine-readable format. Note that this right only applies to automated information which
you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a
contract with you.

17.1.7 Withdraw consent at any time if and to the extent we are relying on consent as the legal
basis to process your personal data. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any
processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we
may not be able to provide certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is the
case at the time you withdraw your consent.

17.2 Regarding your right to have your personal data erased, you can delete your user account with
stubuzz.net at any time. Deleting your user account deletes records of job applications sent, CVs and cover
letters stored in your account, your profile, saved jobs and job alerts. Once your user account is deleted,
it is gone forever and cannot be restored. Some personal data however may still be stored and visible in
other places on the Website. For example, if you have applied for a job, your application information
including your name, email, CV and cover letter may still be visible to the Customer in their user account
on the Website. We will endeavour to contact Customers we know who have accessed your personal
data within the previous 18 months and inform them of your request to erase your personal data.

17.3 You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights).
However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive.
Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances. We may need to
request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access
your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that
personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to
ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.

17.4 In order to exercise one or more of your rights in respect of your personal data, you can do so
from the Account Settings option in Your Account on the Website. Alternatively, please contact us at
gdpr@stubuzz.net. We will respond to your request(s) as soon as reasonably practicable, but in any case
within the legally required period of time.

17.5 You have the right to make a complaint at any time to the Data Protection Commission, the Irish
supervisory authority for data protection issues (https://www.dataprotection.ie) . We would, however,
appreciate the chance to deal with your concerns before you approach the Data Protection Commission
so please contact us in the first instance at gdpr@stubuzz.net
