Data Processing Addendum

Last updated: 29 September 2026

1. Parties and roles

The customer organisation is the controller of the recruitment data it supplies. FastPlaced acts as processor for that data.

2. Scope of processing

  • Data: CVs, job descriptions and related recruitment information supplied by the customer's recruiters.
  • Data subjects: candidates, hiring contacts and others named in that material.
  • Purpose: only to carry out the task a recruiter requests, such as analysis, matching, drafting or research.
  • Duration: for the length of that task. FastPlaced does not keep a permanent candidate or job database.

3. Processor commitments

  • Process recruitment data only on the customer's documented instructions, given through use of the service.
  • Ensure staff with access are bound by confidentiality.
  • Keep customer organisations separate through access controls, hold service credentials server-side, and keep recruitment content out of usage, billing and audit records.
  • Assist the customer with data subject requests and breach notifications as reasonably required. 

4. Subprocessors

To perform requested features, recruitment data may be sent temporarily to hosting, AI model and web research providers.

5. Deletion and return

Recruitment content is held in the recruiter's temporary workspace only and is not retained after it is cleared or the recruiter signs out. The customer keeps its original documents in its own systems, so no return of data is normally needed.

The only exception is a Business Development search a recruiter deliberately saves: a structured snapshot of public company and vacancy information, kept until the recruiter deletes it. It contains no candidate documents, contact records or raw page contents.
