AI software and tools (such as those used to automatically summarise or transcribe

to you from third parties. These may include service providers (such as companies
that carry out DBS checks on our behalf or provide occupational health services),
recruitment agencies, referees, previous employers, academic institutions, certification
bodies, government agencies, regulators, and publicly available sources.
5. How Do We Use Your Personal Data?
We generally use your personal data to allow us to assess your suitability
for employment or engagement with us, to manage our recruitment processes
and to comply with our legal and regulatory obligations. In particular, we
use your personal data:
-
to process and assess your application and determine your suitability
for a role with JJJ Capital;
-
to communicate with you regarding your application and the recruitment
process, and arrange and conduct interviews, assessments and other
recruitment activities;
-
to make hiring decisions, prepare offers of employment or engagement and
take steps prior to entering into an employment or engagement
relationship with you;
-
to verify information provided by you, including your qualifications,
experience and professional credentials, and to obtain references and
conduct background screening, credit checks, criminal record checks and
other pre-employment checks where permitted by applicable law;
-
to assess any reasonable adjustment requirements and facilitate an
accessible recruitment process;
-
to verify your identity and your right to work in the UK, DIFC, Jersey
or any other relevant jurisdiction;
-
to maintain records relating to the recruitment process and, where
appropriate, to consider you for future opportunities;
-
for business management and workforce planning purposes and to operate
our business effectively;
-
to manage and safeguard our recruitment systems, IT infrastructure and
communications systems, and to ensure network and information security;
-
for security and health and safety purposes, including maintaining the
security of our premises and systems;

policies and procedures;

for legal and regulatory purposes, including complying with applicable
employment, immigration, regulatory, tax, social security and accounting
obligations;
- for establishing, exercising or defending legal claims; and
-
for the prevention and detection of unlawful acts, including fraud.
Your personal data will not be used for direct marketing purposes.
6. Why Do We Process Your Personal Data?
We only process personal data about candidates and applicants where the
processing can be legally justified. We will usually rely on one of the
following lawful bases for the processing:
-
to take steps at your request prior to entering into an employment or
engagement contract, including assessing your application, managing the
recruitment process, communicating with you regarding your application
and preparing offers of employment or engagement.
-
for ensuring compliance with our legal obligations: for example, to
allow us to check that you have the right to work in the UK, DIFC or
Jersey;
-
for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party), provided your
interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests, for
example:
-
to recruit and select suitably qualified candidates for roles within
JJJ Capital;
-
to assess applications and determine candidates' suitability for
available roles;
-
to operate, administer and improve our recruitment processes and
hiring procedures;
-
to maintain records relating to recruitment activities and
recruitment decisions;
-
to protect and enforce our legal rights and interests, including in
connection with actual or potential legal claims;
- to operate our business efficiently and effectively;
-
to maintain the security of our premises, systems and information;
-
to maintain compliance with our internal policies and procedures;
and
- to prevent fraud and other unlawful activities.
-
with your consent, in limited circumstances and where permitted by law.
Further details about the processing of such data will be provided to
you at the time such consent is sought. In such circumstances you can
withdraw your consent at any time, although please note that a
revocation of consent would not affect the lawfulness of any processing
that has already occurred.
In the case of special categories of personal data (such as information
about your health, sick leave, religious beliefs, sex life or sexuality
and race/ethnicity data) and criminal records data, extra protections
apply under data protection legislation. We therefore usually only process
special category personal data and criminal records data in the following
circumstances and where permitted by applicable laws:
-
where it is necessary for the purposes of performing or exercising
obligations or rights under employment law;
-
where it is necessary in order to establish, exercise or defend legal
claims (or potential legal claims);
-
where it is necessary for the purposes of equal opportunities
monitoring;
-
where it is necessary for reasons of public interest in the area of
public health;
-
where it is necessary for reasons of substantial public interest,
including to prevent fraud and unlawful acts; and/or
- where we have your explicit consent.
7. Do We Use Automated Decision-Making?
We do not envisage that any decisions will be taken about you using solely
automated means. We will notify you if this changes.
8. With Whom Might We Share Your Personal Data?
We may share your personal data with third parties, such as:
- other companies and affiliates within the JJJ Capital group;
-
third party service providers, which may include recruitment agencies,
background screening providers, reference checking providers, applicant
tracking system providers, suppliers of our IT infrastructure and other
technical services, or enterprise AI tools; service providers in
relation to recruitment, learning and development, HR and occupational
health services; companies that provide marketing or other advertising
related services; and software providers who provide us with
audio-visual communication tools;
-
government bodies, dispute resolution and law enforcement organisations
and other regulators, including the DIFC, FCA, JFSC, HMRC, Revenue
Jersey, law enforcement agencies and the courts;
-
our advisors, including accountants, auditors, lawyers and other
external professional advisors;
- any third party as directed by you; and
-
other third parties in the context of a sale of our business or its
assets or a restructuring exercise.
9. Is Your Personal Data Transferred Internationally?
We may transfer your personal data outside the DIFC, the UK or Jersey (as
applicable) from time to time, for the purposes outlined in this Privacy
Notice. For example, personal data may be transferred to, or accessed by,
third-party service providers located in the United States. This means
that personal data may be transferred to jurisdictions that do not offer
an equivalent level of legal protection as the DIFC, the UK or Jersey.
When we transfer personal data internationally, we take appropriate steps
to ensure that it remains protected in accordance with applicable data
protection laws, for example:
-
the transfer is to a country that has been recognised by the DIFC
Commissioner of Data Protection or the UK Government or the European
Commission (as applicable) as providing an adequate level of protection;
-
we have put in place contractual terms approved by the DIFC Commissioner
of Data Protection or the UK Government or the Jersey DPL (as
applicable) to ensure that your personal data is safeguarded
appropriately; or
-
the recipient has certified to an approved certification mechanism, such
as the US Data Privacy Framework scheme, in respect of which the UK has
put in place the UK-US Data Bridge.
We may also rely on other lawful transfer mechanisms permitted under
applicable data protection laws. In all cases, personal data will only be
transferred where appropriate safeguards are in place.
If you would like further information about the safeguards we use in
connection with international transfers, including copies of the relevant
transfer mechanisms (where available), please contact us using the details
set out at the end of this Privacy Notice.
10. How Long Do We Keep Hold of Your Personal Data?
We only retain personal data for as long as is reasonably necessary to
fulfil the purposes identified above, as required by law, or to establish,
exercise or defend potential legal claims. The period for which we retain
personal data will depend on factors such as the nature of the
information, the purposes for which it was collected and any applicable
legal or regulatory retention requirements.
11. What Are Your Legal Rights?
You may have certain rights under applicable data protection law (subject
to certain conditions), including:
-
to obtain access to your personal data and request information about how
we process it;
-
to request the correction or completion of your personal data if it is
inaccurate, incomplete or out of date;
-
to ask us to erase or destroy your personal data held by us in certain
circumstances (please note that there may be circumstances where you ask
us to erase your personal data, but we are legally entitled to retain
it);
-
to object to, or ask us to restrict, our processing of your personal
data in certain circumstances (please note that there may be
circumstances where you object to, or request the restriction of, our
processing of your personal data, but we are legally entitled to
continue processing it);
-
to ask us to transmit personal data you have provided to us back to you
or to another organisation in certain circumstances;
-
under the DIFC DPL: not to be discriminated against for exercising any
of your rights under the DIFC DPL;
-
under UK GDPR: to lodge a complaint with us in relation to our
processing of your personal data; and
-
where we are relying on your consent, to withdraw your consent at any
time.
Please contact us using the contact details in Section 14 if you wish to
exercise any of the above rights.
If you have a complaint about how your personal data is processed or
whether your rights have been exercised correctly under this Privacy
Notice, you have the right to complain to the relevant supervisory
authority, the contact details for which can be found at Section 15.
12. Use of AI Tools - Your Rights Under the DIFC DPL
Please read this section carefully. It applies to personal data processed
subject to the DIFC DPL. It does not apply where the UK GDPR or the Jersey
DPL apply.
We use AI tools in some instances to process personal data subject to the
DIFC DPL. When we do process your personal data using such tools, in some
cases, due to the technical nature of how the particular tool operates,
the personal data that is processed by the applicable tool is not strictly
kept as a separate record that we can simply find, change or delete.
Instead, it may be absorbed into the datasets used by the underlying AI
model, and may also persist in copies such as back-ups or logs, including
those held by the applicable third party providers we use. As a result,
once your personal data has been processed in this way, it may not always
be technically feasible for us to correct or erase it, or to give effect
to an objection. This is an inherent limitation of certain AI systems.
Where it is technically feasible for us to access your personal data used
in respect of such AI tools, your right to correct or erase it, or object
to such processing should not be affected in the same way.
13. Your Responsibilities
It is important that the personal data we hold about you is accurate and
up-to-date. If your personal data changes it is important for the
protection of your own interests that you let us know promptly.
If you fail to provide certain information to us when requested, we may
not be able to process your application, assess your suitability for a
role, carry out required pre-employment checks or comply with our legal
obligations and we may be unable to continue with the recruitment process.
14. Contacts & Changes

we hold about you, please contact us:

House, IFC6, The Esplanade, St. Helier JE4 0QH, Jersey.
We may update this Privacy Notice periodically. Where we make any material
changes, we will inform you of those changes. This notice is
non-contractual, which means it does not confer any legal rights on any
applicant or candidate and we may amend it at any time in line with law or
good practice.
15. Complaints

protection law. If you have any concerns or complaints about how we

and may be contacted at Dubai International Financial Centre Authority,
