Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR states that we can process your data where it “is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the Controller (i.e. Exchange Street) or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights or freedoms of the data subject (i.e. you) which require protection of personal data.”

We need to do these things so that we can function as a business, so it is in our legitimate interests to help you and other candidates achieve the career progression that you have approached us for.
