5. Do we share your Personal Data with others?

Processors
For the purpose of our Services, we use several parties that process Personal Data on our behalf (Processors). For example, we use Processors for using the IT and other services of third parties such as hosting and data storage provider (AWS), ERP system (AFAS), marketing tools (such as MailChimp and Pipedrive) and email provider Outlook. If you have given your express consent, your personal data will also be shared with your potential or existing employer. We have made arrangements with all our Processors in processing agreements which – in line with this Privacy Policy – set out what these parties may do with, how they must protect and when they must delete Personal Data.

External Controllers 
Payments can be processed through our external payment provider Mollie. Payments made in this way are subject to the terms and conditions of the relevant service. The Personal Data you provide to this payment provider are processed in accordance with its privacy policy.

We are legally obliged to include some Personal Data in our accounting records that have to be shared with the Dutch tax authorities. The Dutch tax authorities will process these Personal Data as the Controller in accordance with its privacy policy.

Apart from the above cases, we will not share your data with third parties unless we are legally obliged to do so.

6. How long do we retain personal data?

We retain personal data only for as long as we need them for the above purposes. We apply at least the following retention periods:

Personal Data of candidates | We retain these data for a period of six (6) years from the moment the Personal Data is provided to LTP, unless you withdraw your consent earlier. In that case, the Personal Data provided based on the consent will be deleted. The six-year retention period is necessary for (representatively) mapping a trend comparison of the Candidate’s developments. A six-year retention period adds significant value to the assessment and is, therefore, primarily in the interest of the Candidate, in addition to being in the interest of our Clients.

Personal Data of website visitors | These data are retained for as long as needed for their respective purposes. Among other things, you can edit or remove data that you share on our social media pages.

Personal data in our accounting records for the Dutch tax authorities | We retain these data for seven (7) years unless we are legally obliged to retain them longer.

Personal data for sending newsletters | These data are retained until you unsubscribe from our newsletter.

Other information | We retain other Personal Data only for as long as needed for the purposes of the processing. This means that other personal data are deleted as soon as they are no longer needed for the purposes for which we have processed them.

We retain personal data for longer than the above periods if we are legally obliged to do so.

7. Exporting data outside the European Union (EU)

LTP does not intend to transfer personal data to parties outside the EU, and will therefore endeavor to only process personal data or have personal data processed within the EU. However, our processors remain the right to transfer personal data to parties outside the EU in case of exceptional emergencies (such as breakdowns and / or natural disasters). This transfer of data outside the EU will be done in accordance with the Privacy Legislation (chapter 5 of the GDPR).

8. How do we protect personal data?

We  work hard to protect personal data from unauthorised or unlawful access, alteration, disclosure, use or destruction. Among other things, we implement these technical and organisational measures to protect personal data:

  • We operate in accordance with the ISO27001 standard on information security; and
  • g. Securing our network connections with Secure Socket Layer (SSL), Transport Layer Security (TLS) or similar technology;]
