People who purchase goods and services from Dukkaboard

We use third-parties to deal with some direct marketing campaigns, but they are only allowed to use the information to send out the publications.

We need to hold the details of the people who have ordered products or services to supply them. However, we only use these details to supply these products or services to the person or organisation that has requested them and for other closely related purposes. The data controller of your personal information shall be Dukkaboard which is registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office with registration number Z8654003.

If you apply for a trade, or credit account with us we may share your business and personal data with: the references you have provided, our services providers and credit agencies and other carefully selected parties. Dukkaboard hold credit insurance with Euler Hermes and will share information including the operation of your account.

Data relating to you will be processed by Euler Hermes UK and companies within the Euler Group of companies ('data processor') and will be held securely in confidence and processed for the purpose of carrying out the business of the data processor and associated activities such as insurance, risk assessment and other related activities ('Activities'). The data processor may consult with and disclose the personal data to third parties such as insurers, credit insurers, credit reference agencies and other carefully selected parties ('Third Parties') who along with the data controller may process the data for the purpose of carrying out the Activities for any business applications made directly or indirectly to the data controller now or in the future. The data controller may also receive data on the data subject from such Third Parties. The data will be processed both within and outside the European Economic Area.

This data usage will include any business owners or directors (‘principals’) and include running personal credit checks on the status and identity of the principals.

Personal information we collect from you, or from a client relating to you, will be retained where we have an ongoing legitimate business need to do so. Email addresses of account holders may be used for targeted advertising campaigns, which can include direct emails and targeted advertisements through social media platforms such as LinkedIn and Facebook.

Prospects

Where promoting our products, we may purchase databases of business contacts within our target sectors. These contacts will only be purchased from credible sources who can provide sufficient assurances that they are meeting their data protection obligations.

These providers are:

• Barbour ABI
• Glenigan

Additionally, we may combine these records with other publicly available information to ensure that our records are accurate.

Our primary market is Business to Business therefore Dukkaboard will only email, call or direct mail prospects where there is either evidenced consent or where there is a legitimate interest to do so. Where legitimate interest is considered the ground for processing, an assessment shall be made to ensure that this legitimate interest is valid and that this interest does not outweigh an individual’s right to privacy.

Job applicants, current and former Dukkaboard employees

Dukkaboard is the data controller for the information you provide during the process unless otherwise stated. If you have any queries about the process or how we handle your information, please contact us on the details at the bottom of the page.

What will we do with the information you provide to us?

All information you provide during the application process will only be used for the purpose of progressing your application, or to fulfil legal or regulatory requirements if necessary.

We will not share any of the information you provide during Dukkaboard’s internal recruitment process with any third parties for marketing purposes. Data sent electronically or processed beyond the initial application will be stored within the European Economic Area by our third-party processors – all processors have appropriate levels of security and organisational controls to meet data protection requirements. The information you provide will be held securely by us and/or our data processors whether the information is in electronic or physical format.

We will use the contact details you provide to us to contact you to progress your application. We will use the other information you provide to assess your suitability for the role you have applied for.

What information do we ask for, and why?

We do not collect more information than we need to fulfil our stated purposes and will not retain it for longer than is necessary.

The information we ask for is used to assess your suitability for employment. You don’t have to provide what we ask for, but it might affect your application if you don’t.

Assessments

We might ask you to participate in assessment days; complete tests or occupational personality profile questionnaires; and/or to attend an interview – or a combination of these. Information will be generated by you and by us. For example, you might complete a written test, or we might take interview notes. This information is held by the Dukkaboard. If you are unsuccessful following assessment for the position you have applied for, we may retain your details for a period of up to three years.

Conditional offer

If we make a conditional offer of employment we will ask you for information so that we can carry out pre-employment checks. You must successfully complete pre-employment checks to progress to a final offer. We are required to confirm the identity of our staff, their right to work in the United Kingdom and seek assurance as to their trustworthiness, integrity and reliability.

You will therefore be required to provide:

• Proof of your identity – you will be asked to attend our office with original documents, we will take copies.
• Proof of your qualifications – you will be asked to attend our office with original documents, we will take copies.
• You will be asked to complete a criminal records declaration to declare any unspent convictions.
• We will contact your referees, using the details you provide in your application, directly to obtain references
• We will also ask you to complete a questionnaire about your health. This is to establish your fitness to work. This is done through a data processor (please see below).

If we make a final offer, we will also ask you for the following:

• Bank details – to process salary payments
• Emergency contact details – so we know who to contact in case you have an emergency at work

Use of data processors

Data processors are third parties who provide elements of our recruitment service for us. We have contracts in place with our data processors. This means that they cannot do anything with your personal information unless we have instructed them to do it. They will not share your personal information with any organisation unless they have our explicit permission or where there is a legal obligation to do so. They will hold it securely and retain it for the period we instruct.

If you are employed by Dukkaboard, relevant details about you will be provided to a number of third-party providers, including our payroll and pensions providers. All employees will be given an appropriate privacy notice to explain this in detail.

How long is the information retained for?

If you are successful, the information you provide during the application process will be retained by us as part of your employee file for the duration of your employment plus 7 years following the end of your employment. This includes your criminal records declaration, fitness to work, records of any security checks and references.

If you are unsuccessful at any stage of the process, your CV shall be retained for up to 3 years and any other information you have provided until that point will be retained for 3 years from the closure of the campaign. If you would prefer us to delete your CV, please let us know by contacting our Data Protection Officer on the details at the bottom of this notice.

Information generated throughout the assessment process, for example interview notes, is retained by us for 3 years following the closure of the campaign.

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymise it or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

Your rights

Under data protection legislation, you have rights as an individual which you can exercise in relation to the information we hold about you.

You can read more about these rights here – https://ico.org.uk/for-the-public/is-my-information-being-handled-correctly/

Automated decision-making

In some instances, our use of your personal information may result in automated decisions being taken (including profiling) that legally affect you or similarly significantly affect you.

Automated decisions mean that a decision concerning you is made automatically based on a computer determination (using software algorithms), without human review. For example, we use automated decisions to assess the current engagement level of customers and potential customers visiting the website or otherwise engaging with Dukkaboard. We have implemented measures to safeguard the rights and interests of individuals whose personal information is subject to automated decision-making.

When we make an automated decision about you, you have the right to contest the decision, to express your point of view, and to require a human review of the decision. You can exercise this right by contact us using the contact details provided under the “How to contact us” heading below.

In some cases, we may also have a legal obligation to collect personal information from you or may otherwise need the personal information to protect your vital interests or those of another person.

If we ask you to provide personal information to comply with a legal requirement or to perform a contract with you, we will make this clear at the relevant time and advise you whether the provision of your personal information is mandatory or not (as well as of the possible consequences if you do not provide your personal information).

Similarly, if we collect and use your personal information in reliance on our legitimate interests (or those of any third party), we will make clear to you at the relevant time what those legitimate interests are.
