Sensitive information

We generally do not ask for sensitive information such as health, religion or political views. Where a role legitimately requires it (for example, a medical fitness requirement), we will request only what is necessary and handle it with extra care.

4. How we use your information

• To verify information, carry out reference and background checks where required and permitted.
• To improve our website, services and candidate and client experience.
• To meet legal, regulatory, accounting and compliance obligations, and to prevent fraud and misuse.

5. Consent and lawful use

We collect and use personal information with your consent, to perform a contract or take steps requested by you, to meet legal obligations, or for our legitimate business interests in running a recruitment and workforce business, always balanced against your rights. When you submit your CV or details to us, you agree that we may share them with relevant clients and partners for the purpose of recruitment. You can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us.

We handle personal data in line with applicable laws in the State of Qatar, including the Personal Data Privacy Protection Law.

6. Sharing your information

We do not sell your personal information. We share it only where needed and only with:

• Clients and prospective employers, so they can assess and engage candidates.
• Service providers, such as IT hosting, email, communication, analytics, payroll and background-screening providers acting on our behalf.
• Business partners, including employer-of-record and local partners, where required to deliver global expansion or managed services.
• Government and regulatory authorities, for work permits, visas, licensing and other legal requirements.
• Professional advisers, such as lawyers, auditors and insurers.
• Successors to our business, in the event of a merger, acquisition or restructuring.
• Others where required by law, court order or to protect our rights, clients, candidates or the public.

Our service providers are required to protect your information and use it only for the services they provide to us.

7. International transfers

Because we work with clients and partners in different countries, your information may be transferred to, and stored in, countries outside Qatar. Where this happens, we take reasonable steps to ensure it is protected to an appropriate standard and shared only for the purposes described in this policy.

8. Cookies & analytics

Our website uses cookies and similar technologies to make the site work, remember your preferences and understand how visitors use it so we can improve it. You can control or delete cookies in your browser settings. Disabling some cookies may affect how parts of the website work.

9. Data retention

We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy, including to keep your profile active for future opportunities, to deliver our services, and to meet legal, tax and accounting requirements. When it is no longer needed, we delete it or make it anonymous. You can ask us to remove your profile at any time.

10. Data security

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures, including secure connections, access controls and trusted service providers, to protect personal information against loss, misuse and unauthorised access. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security. Please avoid sending sensitive documents by unsecured channels, and let us know straight away if you suspect any misuse of your information.

11. Your rights

Subject to applicable law, you may:

• Ask what personal information we hold about you and request a copy.

• Ask us to delete or stop using your information, where we are not required to keep it.
• Withdraw your consent to processing or to sharing your profile with clients.

12. Marketing communications

With your consent, or where otherwise permitted, we may send you job alerts, updates and information about our services. You can opt out at any time using the unsubscribe link in our emails or by contacting us. We will still send you service-related messages, such as updates about an application or an engagement.
