Warum ist es wichtig?

Sensitive data is part of the business­. Recruiting is a matter of trust - trust requires data protection.

Efficient recruiting relies on data: CVs, references, contact details, etc. – sensitive information is ubiquitous here. This information must not only be processed but also legally protected. This is precisely why the GDPR places particularly high demands on recruitment agencies. Those who act negligently risk losing reputation and trust among candidates and clients. Clear processes and data protection-compliant work are therefore mandatory. Proliance supports you in this.

Gefahren & Risiken

Data protection is not an afterthought – we support you where it counts

  • Employee training: Raising awareness for handling sensitive data in recruiting
  • Data protection for applicant and employee data: Correct handling upon departure and re-contact
  • Consulting on retention & deletion periods: Clarity for CVs, notes, and communication
  • Handling data subject access requests: We respond to requests from data subjects or authorities. Legally compliant and on time.
Achtung
From 20 employees processing data: a Data Protection Officer is mandatory. In recruitment agencies, entire teams often work with sensitive applicant data, which quickly makes a Data Protection Officer legally required. We take on this task for you: as external experts who understand your processes and ensure legally compliant security, without additional effort for your daily business.
Unsere Lösung

External Data Protection Officer: Particularly useful for recruitment agencies

Applicant management is a data protection minefield: data ends up in the talent pool without consent, retention periods are ignored, and websites or privacy policies regularly create pitfalls. Our external Data Protection Officer knows these industry-specific risks and creates legally compliant structures – regardless of legal obligations.

Our smart software makes your data protection organization even more efficient: All processes, from the record of processing activities to training and deletion concepts, are digitized and automated. The combination of personal consultation and digital support provides maximum relief for your team, minimizes violations, and ensures complete documentation.
