We require third parties to protect personal data and to process it only according to our instructions and applicable law.

We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes described (contract performance, legal obligations, legitimate business purposes). Retention periods vary by category (e.g., recruitment records kept for a reasonable period; client records kept per contract and regulatory requirements).

12. Security

We implement reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss or alteration and unauthorised disclosure.
