Privacy Policy

1. Information we may collect

The information we collect depends on how you interact with CherryPeople.

For candidates and other professionals, this may include:

• your name and contact details
• employment history and professional experience
• CV or resume information
• LinkedIn or other professional profile information
• skills, qualifications and career preferences
• compensation expectations
• location and work preferences
• information discussed during recruitment conversations
• interview and recruitment process information
• references, where relevant and appropriate
• other information you choose to provide to us

For clients, prospective clients and business contacts, this may include:

• your name
• company and job title
• business contact details
• hiring requirements
• information relating to current or potential recruitment searches
• correspondence and information you provide during our business relationship

We may also collect basic technical information relating to the use of our website where this is generated by the technologies and services used to operate the site.

2. How we collect information

We may collect personal information directly from you when you:

• communicate with CherryPeople
• submit an enquiry through our website
• speak with us about a role or recruitment search
• provide a CV, resume or professional information
• participate in a recruitment process
• communicate with us through email, telephone or professional networking platforms

Because CherryPeople operates a headhunting-led recruitment model, we may also identify and collect professional information from publicly available sources, professional networking platforms and referrals where appropriate.

We may also receive information from clients, referees and other people involved in a recruitment process.

3. Why we use personal information

We may use personal information to:

• identify and assess potential candidates for recruitment opportunities
• contact people about potentially relevant opportunities
• represent candidates in recruitment processes where appropriate
• manage recruitment searches and candidate processes
• communicate with clients and prospective clients
• understand hiring requirements
• provide recruitment and talent market services
• maintain professional relationships
• operate and improve the CherryPeople website and services
• meet legitimate business, administrative and legal requirements

We do not guarantee that providing information to CherryPeople will result in contact, representation or a recruitment opportunity.

4. Sharing information

Where appropriate, we may share relevant personal information with organisations involved in a recruitment process.

For example, candidate information may be shared with a hiring organisation when we are representing that candidate for an opportunity.

We will not intentionally present a candidate to a prospective employer as an active candidate for a role without appropriate engagement with that candidate.

We may also use service providers and technology platforms that help us operate CherryPeople, including services used for recruitment, communication, business administration, website hosting and related business functions.

Information may also be disclosed where required or authorised by law.

5. International activity

CherryPeople works across JAPAC and North America.

As a result, recruitment processes may involve clients, candidates, technology providers or other parties located outside Australia.

Where relevant to a recruitment process or the operation of our business, personal information may therefore be accessed, processed or disclosed internationally.

6. Data security

We take reasonable steps to protect the personal information we hold from misuse, interference, loss, unauthorised access, modification or disclosure.

No method of electronic storage or transmission is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Accessing or correcting your information

If you would like to request access to personal information CherryPeople holds about you, or believe information should be corrected or updated, contact us at:

hello@cherrypeople.com.au

We may need to verify your identity before actioning certain requests.

8. Requesting deletion

If you would like CherryPeople to delete personal information we hold about you, you can contact:

hello@cherrypeople.com.au

We will consider the request and take appropriate action subject to any information we may need or be permitted to retain for legitimate business, legal or record-keeping purposes.

9. Website links

The CherryPeople website may contain links to external websites or services, including professional networking platforms and third-party application destinations.

CherryPeople is not responsible for the privacy practices or content of external websites.

You should review the privacy information provided by those services where appropriate.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to our business, website, technology or legal requirements.

The latest version will be published on this page.
