How we use your information

This privacy notice tells you what to expect when Seine collects personal information.

Who can access your information?

The information you provide to us will be shared within the Seine brand. All references to “Seine” in this Privacy and Cookies Policy therefore include Seine unless stated to the contrary.

By providing us with your personal information you understand and accept that the personal information provided may be accessed from some of our offices based in countries not offering the same rights and protection to your personal data as your country of residence. Seine operates a framework of organizational and technical measures to ensure the personal information you provide is kept secure and that your access rights are respected regardless of the country in which it is processed.

What information we collect when you visit our site?

Information about your Internet Service Provider, your operating system, browser type and/or domain name; the Internet Protocol (IP) address of your computer (or other electronic Internet-enabled device); and your access time(s).

This information helps us to understand which parts of the site are popular or need changing. We do not retain this information in a manner that is attributable to you as an individual and this means it is not your “personal data” (as described below).

If you use our site search facility, queries and results are logged anonymously without any user-specific details being collected. Our collection of website use information may also involve the use of cookies and web beacons. Please see the Cookies section below for more information.

If you want to contact us or to use certain facilities we provide on this site, you will need to provide us with some additional personal information so that we can liaise with you and deal with your request, query or application. This information (either on its own or in combination with other information we hold about you) may allow us to identify you as an individual. This type of personal information is called “personal data”. If you do choose to provide us with your personal data, we will collect that information for the purposes described in this Policy.

What type of personal data does Seine process?

Most of the information we process about you will have been collected directly from you. However, sometimes, where lawful to do so and where you have indicated that we (as a third party) may access this personal data, we also collect personal information from (and combine it with data from) public sources, third party service providers, government, tax or law enforcement agencies, and other third parties. If you have not provided personal data directly to us, we will notify you prior to processing it.

Below is a list of the personal data about you that we may process:

• Your full name;
• Your work and/or home contact details, e.g., company name, job title, address, postal code, country, fax number, telephone numbers and/or e-mail address;
• Other company information, e.g., number of employees and industry sector;
• The reason for your contact such as a query in respect of a job application or information about our services;
• Information about services that interest you;
• Information necessary for legal compliance; and/or
• Where you “like” us or make posts on our pages on social networking websites.

We only process personal data about you that is relevant for the purposes for which it is to be used.

If we collect sensitive information from you during the recruitment process, we will inform you and, if legally required, seek your explicit consent to use it, disclose it to any third party or use it for a purpose other than those for which it was originally collected or subsequently authorized.

For what reasons does Seine process your personal data?

As part of its core business, Seine provides a range of sourcing, recruiting, and staffing services. These include recruitment and selection processes, digital marketing, recruitment advertising and candidate satisfaction surveys. As part of these business activities, the two principal scenarios for which your persona data is used are:
When we contact you as Seine, we are processing Personal Data under our brand to help you secure a new and exciting role with one of our clients. For this purpose, you will be approached under the Seine brand.
We will only process personal data where we have a lawful reason for doing so. The lawful basis for processing personal data by Seine will be one of the following:

• The processing is necessary for the performance of a contract you are party to or in order to take steps at your request prior to you entering into a contract;
• The processing is necessary in order for us to comply with our legal obligations (such as compliance with anti-money laundering legislation);
• The processing is necessary for the pursuit of our legitimate business interests (including that of the delivery and the promotion of our services); and/or
• Processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.

This means that we use information about you:

• To fulfill our contractual obligations to our clients for service provision. For example: sourcing and recruiting candidates for open or future roles, of pre-employment vetting, logistic management of payroll, implementation of technology solutions and employer brand services, including digital marketing;
• To match you against suitable job opportunities with our clients;
• To process and respond to your request or inquiry;
• To improve our services;
• Administration of the site;
• For internal record keeping when necessary;
• To contact you (directly, either by Seine, or indirectly through a relevant partner or agent) by e-mail, mail or phone for the above reasons;
• Where necessary as part of any restructuring of Seine or sale of its assets;
• To perform management analysis, audit, forecasts, business planning and transactions, ensuring our compliance with applicable laws, regulatory requirements and Seine policies, and dealing with legal claims and related administrative activities and related records retention

Seine also converts personal data into anonymous data and uses it (normally on an aggregated statistical basis) for research and analysis to improve Seine performance. For more information, please see the Aggregated Data section below.

Aggregated Data
Aggregated personal information does not personally identify you or any other user of the site. It may be used for statistical analysis and administration, including analysis of trends, tailoring services, risk assessment and analysis of costs and charges in relation to our services.

Does Seine share personal data with third parties?

Your personal data will be made available within the Seine Group of companies for the purposes listed in this policy (or as otherwise notified to you from time to time), on a “need-to-know” basis and only to responsible management, human resources, accounting, legal, audit, compliance, information technology and other corporate staff who properly need to know these details for their functions within Seine.

We may share personal data as needed for reasonable management, analysis, planning and decision-making, including in relation to making decisions regarding the expansion and promotion of a service offering, and for use by those companies for the other purposes described in this Policy.

Use of Data Processors
Data processors are third parties who provide elements of our services for us, including technology providers that we use for our recruitment and marketing activities and website hosting and management. We may share personal data with such third-party data processors as needed in connection with the services they provide to us. We have contracts in place with our data processors. This means that they cannot do anything with your personal information unless we have instructed them to do it. They will not share your personal information with any organization apart from us. They will hold it securely and retain it for the period we instruct.

Website Hosting and Management
The site is hosted on Bluehost and the content management system (CMS) is WordPress. Here are links to their privacy policies: https://www.endurance.com/privacy/privacy and https://wordpress.org/about/privacy/.

If you register to receive updates from Seine, your data will be stored in our CRM and communication technologies, which are provided by the following third parties:

• Recruitment platform: Avionte for displaying available job opportunities, receiving application from interested candidates, and communicating with candidates.
• Customer Relationship Management: TBD

International transfers of personal data: Individuals within the European Economic Area (“EEA”) should be aware that recipients of their personal data, whether within the Group or external third parties (as mentioned in this notice), may be located in countries or territories outside the EEA which may not have adequate data protection laws equivalent to those in the EEA. If you object to your data being transferred outside the EEA, please visit our Preference Center to revoke your consent or email [email protected].

Where personal data is transferred to countries outside of the EEA and Switzerland, Seine will put in place other measures to ensure that those transfers are adequately protected (as required by applicable law).

Individuals in other regions may also have their personal data transferred outside their own country.

Disclosure of personal data

If requested and as governed by applicable law, we may disclose specific information upon lawful request by government, law enforcement and regulatory authorities where required or permitted to do so by law and/or for tax or other purposes. Personal data may also be released to external parties in connection with legal processes, where required to comply with laws, to enforce our contracts, corporate policies and terms of use, and/or to protect the rights, property or safety of Seine, Seine employees, agents, customers and others, as well as to parties to whom you have authorized Seine to release your personal data.

In addition, we may disclose your personal data as necessary in the event that Seine restructures, assigns, sells or otherwise disposes of all or any of its business or assets.

Direct Marketing

Seine may provide you with information about new services, promotions, industry updates, events and offers from Seine that may be of interest to you and may invite you to take part in market research or request feedback on Seine. This communication will occur by email, SMS, or telephone. We will obtain your consent where we are required to do so in accordance with applicable law. You can update your preferences here.

Seine will ensure that any direct marketing or market research that you receive or are contacted about by electronic means will provide a simple means for you to refuse further marketing. For example, in emails it may provide you with an ‘unsubscribe’ link, or an email address to which you can send an opt-out request. Seine will take steps to stop any direct marketing to you to which you object or in respect of which you withdraw your consent within a reasonable period, in order to allow sufficient time for the change to be administered.

In such cases Seine would not necessarily remove all your personal data from its database(s) but would note and respect your modified direct marketing preferences. If you would like for your data to be removed from Seine’s database, please convey this request in writing to [email protected].

California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)

Seine does not sell Personal Information to third parties outside the scope of recruitment activities. According to §1798.45(2)A) of the Cal. Civ. Code, the provisions of the CCPA shall not apply where: “Personal information that is collected by a business about a natural person in the course of the natural person acting as a job applicant to, an employee of, owner of, director of, officer of, medical staff member of, or contractor of that business to the extent that the natural person’s personal information is collected and used by the business solely within the context of the natural person’s role or former role as a job applicant to, an employee of, owner of, director of, officer of, medical staff member of, or a contractor of that business.”

What safeguards are in place to protect your personal data?

Seine takes steps to seek to protect the confidentiality and security of your personal data and applies technical and organizational measures in accordance with applicable legislation. As for all website operations, we cannot guarantee the security of any transmission of personal data over the Internet and on a non-encrypted connection. Communications over the internet such as emails are not secure unless they have been encrypted. So, while we strive to protect such information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information transmitted to us whilst in transit. Please do not submit personal data through the site unless you accept the security implications of doing so.

If you apply for roles listed on www.seinetalent.com, the third-party recruitment platform Avionte uses encryption to transmit and store your personal data and the service providers listed above all comply under contract with international information security standards.
