How does Cyber Security Recruitment deal with the GDPR?
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) took effect on 25 May 2018. The GDPR contains new
privacy rules with the primary objective of protecting your personal data even more effectively. The
current Cyber Security Recruitment privacy policy has been established based on that new
legislation.
What does this mean for you?
You share your personal details with us consciously and unconsciously, such as by visiting the Cyber
Security Recruitment website or when you try reaching out to us. Our Privacy policy describes in
detail how we handle your personal data. You can, for example, find more information about how
we obtain your information and what information we process. But, of course, your personal data is
in safe hands with us. Below, we provide insights into how Cyber Security Recruitment deals with
privacy legislation in the context of the GDPR and what it means for you.
What is personal data, and whose personal data do we process?
Personal data is the information of natural persons that directly or indirectly tells something about
you. We process the personal data of candidates, but also of individuals that express interest in us
and our services, or of people that are affiliated with a company or organisation with whom we
have, would like to have or have had a relationship. We urge you to be very careful when deciding to
disclose your personal data or any other information online. At all times, Cyber Security Recruitment
is not responsible for how third parties use such information.
For what purpose does Cyber Security Recruitment use your information?
Cyber Security Recruitment strives to provide website visitors with the most optimum personal
service. It also applies, for example, for:
• Contact with Cyber Security Recruitment

• Social media
• Reviews & user satisfaction surveys
You give Cyber Security Recruitment permission to use your personal data for:
• Events, such as matchmaking and Cyber security talks
• Newsletters

Who has access to your data?
We do not share non-publicly available data provided by the candidate to other parties. However,
some cookie developers have access to the information that cookies on our website collect. You can
read more about this in our cookie statement and the privacy policy of these parties.
Where will your information be stored?
We store your information in a highly secure (WordPress) environment. In those exceptional cases in
which personal data is passed on to organisations outside the European Union, we will ensure that
your privacy remains appropriately protected.
Securing your information
We seek to use reasonable organisational (procedures to identify, assess and mitigate any
reasonably foreseeable internal and external risks to the security, confidentiality, and or integrity of
systems or files containing personal data and evaluate and improve safeguards as necessary),
technical (penetrations testing, two-factor authentication, encryption protocols) and administrative
measures (privacy roles, awareness training, policies) to protect personal data within our
organisation.
Retention period guidelines
We will not retain and use your information for longer than is necessary. Guidelines for the retention
periods are:
• Visual material will be retained for as long as that suits Cyber Security Recruitment’s
objectives.
• We delete unnecessary information after five years.
• If you have signed up to receive emails or have granted permission to receive personalised
messages, we will retain that permission for four years. Additionally, if you decide at a given
moment that you no longer wish to receive emails or personalised messages, we will retain
the withdrawal of your request.

of your personal data? Or would you like to amend or delete your information, limit the use of your
information or modify your email preferences? No problem. Let us know by post or email. In that
