RECRUITMENT

When you apply for a job on this site, the personal data contained in your application will be collected by us. Your personal data was either provided by yourself or obtained from publicly available sources (e.g. LinkedIn) or provided to us by someone who referred you for potential employment.

Your personal data will be processed to manage our recruitment related activities in line with our legitimate interests, which include evaluating your candidacy/application for employment with us, setting up and conducting interviews and test for applicants, evaluating and assessing the results thereto, and as in otherwise needed in the recruitment and hiring processes.

We use Recruitee to manage our recruitment and selection process. You can find out more about how they process personal data here: https://recruitee.com/en/privacy.

We will retain your personal application data until you request them to be removed. The data is used to improve our recruitment efforts and selection procedure and as a talent pool.

ALL CONTENT YOU SUBMIT TO US

If you send us objectionable content or otherwise behave in a disruptive manner when using our website, we may process personal data included in your messages to respond to and stop such behavior.

  • We only process personal data in this way for the legitimate interests of ensuring that the use of our website is lawful, does not disrupt, does not harass our staff or other individuals, and to enforce our legal rights and to comply with our legal obligations.
  • Where we reasonably believe you are or may be in breach of the law (for instance, because content you send amounts to harassment or is defamatory), we may use your personal information to inform relevant third parties such as your email/internet provider or law enforcement agencies about the content.
  • Where we process personal data in this way, we will hold that personal information on our systems for as long as is reasonably necessary to achieve these objectives.

HOW YOU USE OUR WEBSITE (ANALYTICS)

Our website uses cookies and other mechanisms to collect log and analytical information, such as your internet protocol (IP) address, to help analyze how visitors use the site and to compile statistical reports on website activity.

  • We process this information to understand how visitors use our website and to compile statistical reports regarding that activity (for example your IP address is used to approximate the country from which you access our website, and we aggregate this information together, so we know that, for example, most of the visitors to our website come from a certain country/area).
  • This processing is necessary for us to pursue our legitimate interests in improving our website by enhancing the user experience and making the website as personal and relevant as possible.
  • This information is not used to develop a personal profile of you. All such information is aggregated and stored anonymously.

2. DO WE SHARE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION WITH ANYONE ELSE?

Your personal data on our website is used by regional offices, currently located in Copenhagen, Denmark and Montréal, Canada. We keep your information confidential but may share it with our shareholders, affiliates, and business partners. Whenever we transfer your personal data outside of the European Economic Area (EEA) we ensure that we have standard contractual clauses in place as a safeguard for this transaction.

We may also disclose it to our personnel, suppliers or subcontractors insofar as it is reasonably necessary for the purposes set out in this privacy policy, provided that they do not make independent use of the information and have agreed to adhere to the rules set out in this privacy statement.

In addition, we may disclose your information to the extent that we are required to do so by law (which may include to government bodies and law enforcement agencies); in connection with any legal proceedings or prospective legal proceedings; and to establish, exercise or defend our legal rights (including providing information to others for the purposes of fraud prevention).

If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or a portion of our business or assets, the information we hold may be included as part of that sale, in which case you may be notified, as appropriate, via email and/or a notice on the website of any changes in ownership or use of your information, as any choices you may have regarding that information.

The transfer to the subcontractors' subcontractors is based on your consent.

Except as provided above, we will not provide your information to third parties

3. USE OF SUB-PROCESSORS

Our website is hosted by Digital Ocean and Amazon Web Services. Although the information is stored on servers located in the EU, they are also considered to have been exported to countries outside the EU, as the two companies are located in the United States and otherwise use subcontractors in other countries outside the EU.
An overview of Digital Ocean's subcontractors can be found here.
An overview of the subcontractors used by Amazon Web Services and thus the countries to which data must be considered exported can be found here.
Our transfer of data to the two subcontractors is based either on the EU Commission's Standard Contracts or on the EU / US Privacy Shield.

4. YOUR RIGHTS IN RELATION TO PERSONAL DATA WHICH WE PROCESS RELATING TO YOU
