Sourcing IT ApS is the data controller for the personal data we receive about you. We process your data in accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Danish Data Protection Act.
If you have questions about how we process your data, or want to exercise your rights, you are always welcome to contact us.
This policy applies to four groups: consultants and candidates, contact persons at clients and partners, visitors to sourcingit.dk, and people who contact us.
| Who | Data we typically process | Where it comes from |
|---|---|---|
| Consultants and candidates | Name, contact details, CV, education, work experience, skills, certifications, languages, availability, hourly rate or salary expectations, references and notes from conversations | You (e.g. via our CV form or email), publicly available professional profiles (e.g. LinkedIn) and references you have given us |
| Consultants on assignment | The above, plus contract and invoicing details, CVR no. and bank details for payment | You and your company |
| Contact persons at clients and partners | Name, title, company, work email, phone and correspondence | You, your employer or public sources |
| Website visitors | IP address, browser and device information, and cookies if you have given consent | Your browser |
We do not ask for sensitive data (e.g. health, religion or ethnic origin), and we encourage you not to include it in your CV. If a client requires a background check or criminal record certificate, we only obtain it with your explicit consent and only for the specific assignment.
We only process your data when we have a lawful basis under GDPR Article 6, and only for the purposes listed below.
| Purpose | Legal basis (GDPR) |
|---|---|
| Assessing your profile and matching you with relevant assignments and positions | Legitimate interest, Art. 6(1)(f) – our interest in placing consultants and candidates, which is also in your interest |
| Presenting your CV to a client for a specific assignment | Consent, Art. 6(1)(a) – we never send your CV to a client without agreeing it with you first |
| Entering into and managing contracts, time registration and invoicing | Performance of a contract, Art. 6(1)(b) |
| Complying with bookkeeping and tax rules | Legal obligation, Art. 6(1)(c) |
| Background checks or criminal record certificates when a client requires them | Explicit consent, Art. 6(1)(a), and section 8 of the Danish Data Protection Act |
| Communication and collaboration with clients and partners | Legitimate interest, Art. 6(1)(f) |
| Newsletters and marketing | Consent, Art. 6(1)(a) |
| Operation, security and statistics on the website | Legitimate interest (necessary cookies) and consent (other cookies) |
If you have given consent, you can withdraw it at any time. This does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.
We never sell your data. We only share it in these cases:
Transfers outside the EU/EEA: Some of our data processors may store data in data centres outside the EU/EEA. This only happens with the safeguards GDPR requires: an adequacy decision from the European Commission (e.g. the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework) or the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses. Contact us if you would like a copy of the safeguards.
We only keep your data for as long as we need it for the purpose. After that, we delete or anonymise it.
| Data | Retention period |
|---|---|
| Candidate and consultant profile (CV, notes, contact details) | 3 years after our most recent contact with you. We contact you before the period expires and delete the profile if you do not wish to remain in our network |
| Contracts, timesheets and invoices | 5 years from the end of the financial year, under the Danish Bookkeeping Act |
| Criminal record certificates and background checks | Deleted no later than 6 months after the assignment starts or is declined |
| Contact persons at clients and partners | For as long as the collaboration is active and 3 years after the most recent contact |
| Enquiries via contact form or email | 1 year after the matter is closed, unless it leads to a collaboration |
| Newsletter | Until you unsubscribe |
| Cookies | See the cookie overview on the website |
