Processing personal information of applicants allows us to manage the recruitment process, assess and confirm a candidate’s suitability for employment and decide to whom to offer a job. We may seek your consent to allow us to process sensitive personal information as explained above. We may also need to process data from job applicants to respond to and defend against legal claims.
If you have questions about or require further information concerning the legal basis on which we process your personal information, please contact privacy@norstella.com.

These primarily include hiring managers and the human resources professionals assigned to manage the evaluation of candidates, technical personnel who support our applications and systems, and those that carry out systems maintenance.
Your personal information may be shared with selected third-party vendors that provide services in areas such as background checks, candidate management, facilities management, web analytics and IT services.

We will securely delete your information once the obligation to which we are subject expires or after the period of time specified in our retention policies elapses. Where there are technical limitations that prevent deletion or anonymization, we safeguard personal information and limit active use of it.

If you are located or reside in a jurisdiction that places certain restrictions on the transfer of personal information (such as the EEA, EU or UK), your personal information will be transferred to countries with different privacy and data protection laws than your own, including to countries such as the United States.
