What is Personal data?

Personal data means 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, telephone number, postal address, e-mail address, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.

Our Legal Bases for Processing your Data Under GDPR

CareerCross Co., Ltd. processes personal data in relation to its own staff and candidates and is a data controller for the purposes of the Data Protection Laws.

CareerCross Co., Ltd. will only process personal data where it has a legal basis for doing so:

Consent

CareerCross Co., Ltd. requires that you give your consent to the processing of your personal data in relation to CareerCross Co., Ltd.’s services. We believe this explicit consent is essential for both CareerCross Co., Ltd. and you and ensures both parties clearly understand their rights and the intentions of all involved in the consultation process. This basis for processing is in accordance with Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR, which states “[you] have given consent to the processing of his/her personal data for one or more specific purposes”

Legitimate Interests

As the operator of the online job-board CareerCross, it is in both CareerCross Co., Ltd.’s interest and yours, as a candidate, for CareerCross Co., Ltd. to process your information in order to provide you with the most effective and efficient service. This basis for processing is in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, which states "processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by [CareerCross Co., Ltd.] or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights or freedoms of [you] which require protection of personal data."

Contract

Whilst CareerCross Co., Ltd. does not require a formal contract to be signed by you, the candidate, we believe that there is an agreement between you and CareerCross Co., Ltd. for CareerCross Co., Ltd. to provide you with our services. This agreement is made explicit after you provide CareerCross Co., Ltd. with your personal information for the purposes of CareerCross Co., Ltd. providing you with services and after you provide your consent for CareerCross Co., Ltd. to hold and process your information. As such, in accordance with Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, CareerCross Co., Ltd. processes your personal information “for the performance of a contract to which the [you] are party or in order to take steps at the request of [you] prior to entering into a contract”.

Transfer of Information Internationally

CareerCross Co., Ltd.’s business is based in Tokyo Japan. Our databases are also located in Tokyo and as such, upon receipt of your personal information, it will be transferred quickly (and securely) to our systems hosted there.

In addition, CareerCross is a web site on the world wide web, where clients can access our services from anywhere in the world. As such you should be aware that your information may be downloaded by a client that is not resident in Japan.

Your Rights under GDPR

Under GDPR, the data subject has certain important rights. These include (but are not limited to) the following:

  • The right for access to data and data portability
    • You have the right to receive your personal data, which you have provided to us previously, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. Further you have the right to request us to transmit your personal data to another data controller in circumstances where:
      • The processing is based on your consent or a contract; and
      • The processing is carried out by automated means
    • Where feasible, CareerCross Co., Ltd. will send the personal data to a named third party upon your request.
  • The right to have data rectified
    • You may request CareerCross Co., Ltd. to rectify any inaccurate or incomplete personal data concerning yourself. If CareerCross Co., Ltd. has given your personal data to any third parties we will tell those third parties that we have received a request to rectify your personal data unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort. Those third parties should also rectify the personal data they hold. However, CareerCross Co., Ltd. is not in a position to audit those third parties to ensure that the rectification has occurred.
  • The right to “be forgotten”
    • This refers to your right to have your personal data completely deleted from our database, including from any third parties who may have access to that data. Further, the request to “be forgotten” must be as easy as it was to give consent.
    • You may request, at any time, to have your personal data deleted completely from all CareerCross Co., Ltd.’s databases. Upon receipt of such a request, we will ask you whether you want your personal data to be removed entirely or whether you are happy for your details to be kept on a list of individuals who do not want to be contacted in the future (for a specified period or otherwise). We cannot keep a record of individuals whose data has been erased completely so you may be contacted again by CareerCross Co., Ltd. should we come into possession of your personal data at a later date.
    • If CareerCross Co., Ltd. has given the personal data to any third parties, it will tell those third parties that we have received a request to erase the personal data, unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort. Those third parties should also rectify the personal data they hold. However, CareerCross Co., Ltd. is not in a position to audit those third parties to ensure that the rectification has occurred.
    • It should be noted that where there are legal requirements for CareerCross Co., Ltd. to store data for a certain period of time, related to our business, which includes elements of your personal data, we will not be able to delete that data until after the statutory retention period.
  • The right to restrict the processing of your data
    • You have the right to ask CareerCross Co., Ltd. to restrict its processing of your personal data where:
      • You challenge the accuracy of the personal data we are storing;
      • The processing is unlawful but you oppose its erasure;
      • CareerCross Co., Ltd. no longer needs your personal data for the purposes of the processing, but your personal data is required for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims; or
      • You have objected to processing (on the grounds of a public interest or legitimate interest) pending the verification of whether the legitimate grounds of CareerCross Co., Ltd. override those of the individual.
    • If CareerCross Co., Ltd. has given your personal data to any third parties we will tell those third parties that we have received a request to restrict the personal data, unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort. Those third parties should also rectify the personal data they hold. However, CareerCross Co., Ltd. is not in a position to audit those third parties to ensure that the rectification has occurred.
  • The right to lodge a complaint
    • You have the right to object to your personal data being processed based on a public interest or a legitimate interest. You also can object to the profiling of your data based on a public interest or a legitimate interest.
    • Upon receiving a claim from you, CareerCross Co., Ltd. shall cease processing unless it has compelling legitimate grounds to continue to process the personal data which override the individual’s interests, rights and freedoms or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
    • You also have the right to object to your personal data being used for direct marketing
  • The right to object to automated decision making
    • CareerCross Co., Ltd. will not subject individuals to decisions based on automated processing that produce a legal effect or a similarly significant effect on the individual, except where the automated decision:
      • Is necessary for the entering into or performance of a contract between the data controller and the individual
      • Is authorised by law; or
      • The individual has given their explicit consent.
    • CareerCross Co., Ltd. will not carry out any automated decision-making or profiling using the personal data of a child.
  • The right to receive damages in the event of a breach of regulations
    • Under the GDPR, should there be a breach of the regulations and it is judged that that breach has occurred due to causes within the control of the data controller or data processor, and that the breach has caused material damage, the data subject may be due to receive compensation.
