What information do we collect about you?

We collect information about you (i) when you register your CV with us for recruitment services, (ii) when you sign up to join our mailing list or (iii) when you contact us directly.

The information we collect may include your personal details, including but not limited to your name and contact details (together with your email address) and other relevant information from your CV. We also collect data using GoogleTag Manager.

Our legal basis for using your personal information

We need the information outlined above to allow us to:

  • Comply with legal obligations; and
  • Pursue our legitimate business interests and those of selected third parties (for example when making an introduction on your behalf to a client law firm of organisation)

We may also use your personal information in the following situations, which are likely to be rare:

  • Where we need to protect your interests (or someone else's interests)
  • Where it is needed in the public interest or for any official purposes.

How will we use the information about you?

We collect information about you to allow us to tailor our recruitment service to your particular skills and experience; for example, we will use your information to determine whether we believe that you would be suitable for a job role with one of the employers we work with (‘our clients’).

We will contact you directly to obtain your consent before we pass on your personal information to any of our clients. In the event you would like to instruct us as your recruitment agency, we may request that you provide us with appropriate identification documentation (which can include a passport, driving licence, recent utility bills). We may use and disclose your identity information to relevant bodies to complete (amongst other checks) DBS checks, identity checks, checks with the SRA and searches. We may also disclose this information to prospective employers to allow them to conduct similar checks.

Any personal information will be kept securely and safely on a third party server and any hard copy documents are kept in a locked and secure room. We will keep your personal data no longer than necessary with the exception of documents we consider to be of continuing significance. However, you have the right to request that such data is destroyed or returned by contacting us directly.

We may use your information for marketing purposes as set out below but will not share your information for marketing purposes with any other companies.

Mailing List and E-mail Communications

If you have requested to join our Mailing List as mentioned above we will send you information on an ad hoc basis. By requesting to join our Mailing List you are consenting to receive these e-mails. If you wish to opt out, you may do this at any time.

We may occasionally send email communications to you to provide information that we think you would find useful and interesting, for example news or market updates, salary surveys or invitations to events. Our emails contain instructions on how to unsubscribe should you wish not to receive any further email communications from us.

Access to your information and correction

You have the right to request a copy of the information we hold about you. If you would like a copy of some or all of your personal information, please email us or write to us at the address in the ‘How to contact us’ section below.

We want to make sure that your personal information is accurate and up to date. Please let us know of any changes to your details as soon as you reasonably can to allow us to maintain the accuracy of information we hold about you.

You may ask us to correct or remove any information that you think is inaccurate. Where a request to correct or update any information is received, Motus will take reasonable steps to correct this information.
