This policy tells you:
This policy covers the services that are offered by the Gather Allies BVBA. And sometimes it covers services offered by parts of our organisation that might (in the future) operate as separate companies. But only when those services link to this policy or tell you it applies.
What’s not covered in this policy?
Our services sometimes link to services run by other companies, like Companies you’ve applied at for a job through Allies. Those companies have their own privacy and cookies policies, so remember that the information you give them will follow their rules and not ours. Make sure to check or ask for their privacy policy so you know how they will use your information.
We’re strongly committed to keeping your information safe. And to do this we design our services with your safety in mind. We also have dedicated teams to look after your information security and privacy. At the same time, no service can be completely secure – if you have any concerns that your Allies account or personal information has been put at risk, for example if someone could have found out your password, please get in touch straight away.
Where we store your information
Some companies that provide services to us run their services from outside the European Economic Area. We only let that happen if we are satisfied with their levels of security. Keep in mind that when you give us personal information it could be being transferred, stored or processed in a location outside the EEA.
We’ll give details about why we need your personal information and how we’ll use it before you begin, unless it’s obvious.
When you give us any personal information we’ll let you know how long we’ll hold it for. And always stick to these principles:
We have to have a valid reason to use your personal information. It’s called the “lawful basis for processing”. Sometimes we might ask your permission to do things, like when you subscribe to an email. Other times, when you’d reasonably expect us to use your personal information, we don’t ask your permission, but only when:
We might use your information to contact you about different things, like:
We’ll only send you marketing emails or contact you about Allies services and your views on issues about Allies if you’ve agreed to this. Keep in mind, even if you unsubscribe, we may still contact you.
Will my personal information be used when Allies advertises with other companies?
If you have a Allies account we might use information that we hold about you to show you relevant and “targeted advertising” through other companies’ sites, like Facebook, Google, Snapchat or Twitter for example.
This could be showing you an Allies advertising message where we know you have an Allies account and have used Allies services. If you don’t want to see our targeted advertising, you can set ad preferences in your social media companies’ settings.
We’ll never sell your personal information. We do share it with others in these ways:
This depends on what information you’re talking about.
Remember, you’re in control of your personal information. You have the right to:
We update this policy sometimes. If we make important changes, like how we use your personal information, we’ll let you know. It might be a notice or an email. If you don’t agree to the changes, then you can always stop using our services, delete your account and stop giving us any more personal information. We’d be sorry to see you go.
