Such processing is in accordance with the candidate’s interest in having their application assessed in relation to the professional opportunities on offer.

CVs and personal data of unsuccessful candidates will be kept for a maximum period of 5 months from the date of receipt, after which they will be securely and permanently deleted from our systems. In some cases, and with the explicit consent of the candidate, we may retain data for a longer period in order to assess future job opportunities.
