AZ-Tech is principally in the business of placing candidates that register with our company for projects with our clients and for permanent placements in client organisations. This inevitably entails the supply of personal information to us by a candidate in a resume, written application, interview discussions, third party reference checks and finally in supplementary discussions. Implicit in the nature of these activities is our requirement to handle personal information as Private and Confidential.  We are therefore responsible for ensuring that all communications given In Confidence are respected as such and not disclosed to a 3rd party without the full knowledge and agreement of the issuing party. This means that a Consultant may not forward a candidate resume or personal information to a client without the candidate’s knowledge and agreement.  Likewise, client information of a commercial nature, such as tender details, are not available for disclosure, unless and until negotiations for placement make this appropriate.  Information may not be used for secondary purposes without permission of the issuer.

AZ-Tech formatted Resumes may be amended for the sake of clarity, brevity or inclusion of additional information supplied by the candidate or a referee during the selection process.  However a candidate’s intrinsic expertise is not to be misrepresented in any way.  Formatted resumes are now described as “Profiles” to differentiate that information from a candidate’s personal resume. The profile may contain information gathered by the Consultant about a candidate’s history and circumstances, but will not contain their personal identifying information.  Our company name and contact details appear on page footers so that all communications with the recipient are via AZ-Tech and do not infringe upon the candidate’s privacy.

Sensitive information is only to be gathered and stored where such information can be shown to be essential to our Risk Management process or for remote site project applications where such information about the client and candidate circumstance is critical to the reasonable success of a relocation.  Such information is restricted to whatever information is considered relevant ie: family circumstances where single status accommodation restrictions apply, cultural or language abilities that could be relevant to offshore placements etc.
