Data Retention Period

The personal data you provide will be retained until the end of the probationary work period, and beyond, in the event that you are employed in a specific position by the Cooperative. If you are not hired for a specific position, your personal data will be retained by the Cooperative — provided you have given your consent — for the purpose of being reconsidered for future employment opportunities.

Your personal data will in any case be retained for the periods prescribed by law, where this is required by specific legislation relating to the provision of mental health services (e.g. the Code of Medical Ethics), or within the framework of legal obligations arising from provisions of tax, insurance, and labour legislation.

Access and Transfer of Data

The data are subject to internal processing by the Cooperative, and specifically by the "Personnel Development and Care Department". Processing is carried out exclusively by employees whose responsibilities relate to the management of the Cooperative's human resources, and by professionals involved in the psychosocial support of employees and job applicants. The Cooperative has ensured that all those working towards its objectives, as well as any third-party collaborating parties, will provide a high level of security for your data.

In all of the aforementioned cases, the Cooperative remains responsible for the processing of your personal data and sets the terms of data processing by employees and any third parties, based on documented instructions and an explicit commitment to confidentiality, so that the same high level of protection is always provided. The Cooperative will not share your personal data with any further third party without your prior consent, unless required to do so by law (such as in the case of a court order, a prosecutor's order, etc.).

Personal Data Security

The Cooperative is committed to the security of data provided by job applicants. Specific technical and organisational procedures protect the submitted data from any disclosure, unauthorised access, modification, or loss.

In any case, if — despite the very high level of protection provided by the Cooperative — unauthorised persons gain access to your personal data by breaching security measures, the Cooperative will act immediately to remedy the breach and comply with the procedure prescribed by the General Regulation for notifying the competent authorities and the data subjects.
