This Privacy Notice for job applicants (’Privacy Notice’) describes how RebelsAI B.V. – based at Blaak 555**, 3011 GB, Rotterdam, the Netherlands** – process the personal data of candidates we contact and applicants that apply to a position (‘you’) in connection with RebelsAI B.V. recruitment process.

We have carefully drafted this Privacy Notice to inform you in plain language about our privacy practices. The Privacy Notice tells you what personal data we process about you, why we process it and how we use it during our recruitment process. We encourage you to read the Privacy Notice in full.

When does this privacy notice apply?

This Privacy Notice applies to the processing of personal data of job applicants or job prospects by RebelsAI. Processing personal data is a broad term and includes (amongst other things) collecting, recording, storing, amending, reviewing, using and deleting personal data. Some countries may have stricter or deviating local legal requirements. For example, local law may impose different requirements on how long we have to keep your data (data retention). In case of a conflict between this Privacy Notice and such requirements, the latter will prevail.

What is personal data?

It is important for you to know that ‘personal data’ (or ‘data’, ‘personal information’ or ‘your data’), refers to any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (‘data subject’). An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier – or by reference to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.

What personal data do we process about you?

During the recruitment process, we ask you to provide us with information that enables us to assess your suitability for certain positions. We may process personal data about you, such as:
