Privacy policy
How we handle the personal information you share with CareVeritas.
Who we are
CareVeritas is a healthcare recruitment and staffing agency operating in the United Kingdom. In this policy, "we", "us" and "our" refer to CareVeritas.
For questions about this policy or your personal information, contact us through the contact form.
Information we collect
From healthcare professionals registering with us or applying for a role:
- Name, contact details and location
- Career history, role preferences, availability and CV documents
- Professional registration details where a role requires them
- Compliance evidence such as identity, right to work, qualifications, references and DBS information where applicable
From employers submitting a staffing enquiry:
- Organisation name, contact name, email and telephone number
- Details of the staffing requirement, location and shift pattern
How we use your information
We use professional information to assess suitability for roles, to carry out and record compliance checks, to communicate with you about opportunities and to fulfil our obligations to employers. We use employer information to respond to staffing enquiries and to provide staffing services.
We do not sell personal information. We do not share your CV or compliance evidence with an employer until you have been put forward for a specific role, and only to the extent needed for that role.
Lawful basis
We process candidate information on the basis of taking steps at your request before entering into a contract, performing a contract, complying with legal obligations, and our legitimate interests in operating a recruitment service. Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw it at any time.
How we protect information
CVs and compliance evidence are stored in private storage and are accessible only to authorised members of the CareVeritas team. Access to candidate and application records is restricted by role within our recruitment system. Compliance checks are recorded individually, and a check is only marked as verified when an authorised member of staff has reviewed the evidence.
How long we keep information
We keep candidate records for as long as needed to provide recruitment services and to demonstrate compliance. We review what we hold at least annually and delete records that are no longer required.
Your rights
You have the right to request access to the personal information we hold about you, to ask us to correct it, to ask us to delete it, to restrict how we use it, and to object to certain processing. To exercise any of these rights, contact us through our contact form.
If you are unhappy with how we have handled your information, you have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).
