AJMS Consultants Ltd processes personal data in relation to its own staff, work seekers and individual client

contacts. It is vitally important that we abide by the principles of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDRP) 2018 set out below.

AJMS Consultants Ltd holds data on individuals for the following general purposes:

• Staff Administration or application
• Advertising, marketing, and public relations
• Accounts and records
• Administration and processing of work-seekers personal data for the purposes of work-finding services

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDRP) 2018 requires that AJMS Consultants Ltd, as data controller shall process data in accordance with the principles of data protection. AJMS Consultants Ltd shall ensure that:

• we will process all personal data fairly and lawfully
• we will only process personal data for specified and lawful purposes
• we will endeavour to hold relevant and accurate personal data, and where practical, we will keep it up to date
• we will not keep personal data for longer than is necessary
• we will keep all personal data secure
• we will endeavour to ensure that personal data is not transferred to countries outside of the European
• Economic Area (EEA) without adequate protection

Data may only be processed with the consent of the data subject, or ‘individual’ whose data is held. Therefore, if they have not consented to their personal details being passed to a third party this may constitute a breach of the General Data Protection Regulation 2018. By instructing AJMS Consultants Ltd to look for work and providing us with personal data contained in a CV work-seekers will be giving their consent to processing their details for work-finding purposes. Where data is intended to be processed for any other purpose, AJMS Consultants Ltd must obtain their specific consent. However, caution should be exercised before forwarding personal details of any of the individuals on which data is held to any third party such as past, current or prospective employers; suppliers; customers and clients; persons making an enquiry or complaint and any other third party.

Data shall be processed securely in line with the requirements of General Data Protection Regulation (GDRP)

2018: and shall be ‘Processed in a manner that ensures appropriate security of the personal data, including

protection against unauthorised or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction or damage,

using appropriate technical or organisational measures’.

The general security principles applied by AJMS Consultants Ltd specify the way in which we store or transmit

information. Every aspect of processing of personal data is covered, not just cybersecurity. Security measures

have been devised to ensure that:

• the data can be accessed, altered, disclosed or deleted only by those authorised to do so;
• the data held is accurate and complete in relation to why it is processing; and
• the data remains accessible and usable, i.e., measures are in place to ensure if personal data is accidentally lost, altered or destroyed, it is recoverable it to prevent any damage or distress to the individuals concerned.

These measures are in place to satisfy the requirements under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDRP)

2018 for ‘confidentiality, integrity and availability’.
