    DUO for a JOB, whose head office is established at Rue de Stassart 48 box 4 1050 Ixelles, Belgium, commits to respect your privacy when processing your personal data in accordance with the provisions of European data protection legislation, i.e. Regulation (GDPR) EU 2018/1725.

    I. Introduction

    This online Privacy Policy is provided to explain the online information practices of DUO for a JOB and the choices you can make about the way that data – which directly or indirectly identifies you (“personal data”) – is collected and used on our website www.duoforajob.be and through  individual interviews.

    For the purpose of the General Data Protection Regulation (the “GDPR”), we are the data controller and we use your personal data only in accordance with the following principles and in compliance with applicable data protection laws including the GDPR.

    GDPR is the new European data protection reference and aims at reinforcing the framework and practices concerning the collection and use of personal data. The rules of GDPR replace regulation 95/46/EU and apply as of May 25, 2018, to all public and private companies active in an EU member state. More particularly, organizations that :

    • Offer goods & services on the (unified) EU market
    • Collect and process data of EU citizens

    Be aware that the regulation also applies to companies not established in the EU from the moment they collect and process personal data of EU citizens.

    The GDPR rules and obligations apply to the processing-whether or not automatically- of personal data, i.e. all information relating to an identified or identifiable person. An identifiable person is any person who can be identified directly or indirectly by reference to identification, such as name, number, location, online identification, or to more specific characteristics of physical, physiological, genetic, psychological, economic, cultural, or social identity.

    Data processing as defined by GDPR refers to the collection, access to, storage, manipulation, destruction and consultation of data. Please read this policy carefully so that you understand your rights in relation to your personal data, and how we will process them.
