We try to be as open as we reasonably can about Personal Data that we process. If you would like specific information, just ask us.
You also have a legal right to make a “subject access request”. If you exercise this right and we hold Personal Data about you, we are required to provide you with information on it, including a description and copy of the Personal Data and an explanation of why we are processing it.
If you make a subject access request and there is any question about who you are, we may require you to provide information from which we can satisfy ourselves as to your identity.
As well as your subject access right, you may have a legal right to have your personal data rectified or erased, to object to its processing or to have its processing restricted.  You may also have the right to be given your data in a machine-readable format for transmitting to another data controller though this right is unlikely to be relevant to you the context of our recruitment processes.
We are unlikely to rely on consent as a ground for processing.  However, if we do, you may withdraw consent at any time — if you do so that will not affect the lawfulness of what personal data processing activities that was carried out before you withdraw consent.
If you have complaints relating to our processing of your Personal Data, please contact info@cshift.tech.
You may also raise complaints with the statutory regulator in your jurisdiction. For instance at www.imy.se in Sweden.
