The legal basis for the processing of your identity and contract information as well as you CV is the Danish Data Protection Act section 6, subsection 1 cf. the EU Data Protection Regulation article 6, para. 1, letter a, which is your consent.

You can at any time withdraw your consent.

Remember that a normal e-mail isn’t a safe way to communicate, so please don’t write anything privately or sensitive in the e-mail or else we would recommend encrypting the e-mail before sending.

You also have the option to delete your application and relevant documents you have submitted by logging in through the link in the e-mail you received when you were finish with the application form.  

5. Limitation of storage

All recruitments take place through HR-ON Recruit, which is managed by HR-Recruitment. For some positions, recruitment will take place through an external HR agency – here their Privacy Policy will apply.  

When we have found the right candidate for the position, we will close the job advert, and all job applications will be deleted unless you have given your consent to us, that we can store it for 6 months.

Even if you don’t get the position you have applied for, you may still be an interesting candidate for a position in THECA A/S. We therefore would like to encourage you to give consent for us to keep your application for up to 6 months. You can of course withdraw your consent at any time. Before the expiration of the 6 months, you will receive an e-mail if you are interested in us storing your application for another 6 months.
