This notice supplements our Privacy Policy.
1. Who is responsible
Alpen Select Personalvermittlung, [ADDRESS], Switzerland. Contact: info@alpenselect.ch.
2. What we collect
- Contact details: name, address, email, phone.
- Application documents: CV, cover letter, certificates, references, photo if you provide one.
- Career data: work history, education, skills, languages, salary expectations, notice period.
- Work permit and nationality, where needed to check that you may work in Switzerland.
- Notes from our interviews and conversations with you.
- References, only after you have given us the referee's details and agreed to a check.
Please do not send information we do not need, such as health data, religion or political views. If a job genuinely requires it, we ask for it separately.
We also use public professional profiles (for example LinkedIn) when we search for candidates. We tell you the source when we first contact you.
3. Why we use it
- To find suitable roles and present you to employers.
- To assess your skills and fit for roles you are interested in.
- To contact you about roles, interviews and your application.
- To meet legal duties such as work permit checks and accounting.
Swiss employment services law limits us to processing candidate data only as far as needed for placement. We do not use it for unrelated purposes.
4. Who sees your profile
- Employers: only for a specific role, and only after you have agreed to it.
- Service providers who help run our systems, such as cloud storage and recruiting software, listed in our Privacy Policy.
- Authorities where the law requires it.
We never sell or publish your profile.
5. Transfers abroad
If a role or a provider is outside Switzerland, your data may be sent abroad. We do this only where the country offers adequate protection, suitable safeguards are in place (such as standard contractual clauses), or you have agreed after we told you about the risks.
6. Automated decisions
We do not make decisions about you solely by automated means.
7. How long we keep it
- Active applications: while we look for roles for you. After [12] months of inactivity we delete your profile, unless you joined our talent pool.
- Talent pool: until you withdraw your consent.
- You can ask us to delete your data earlier at any time.
8. Your rights
You can see, correct, delete or take your data, withdraw consent and object to processing. See Your data rights. You can complain to the FDPIC (www.edoeb.admin.ch).
9. Applying costs you nothing
We charge candidates no fee for registering or placement. See our Candidate Terms.
