5. SHARING YOUR DATA

Within Terumo we restrict access to your data to employees and any person acting under our authority on a need-to-know basis, who respect our confidentiality rules and comply with our instructions.  

a)         Internally:

Terumo Europe NV receives all job applications and may share your data with the competent recruitment manager and with the HR partner in order to assess the suitability of your profile. They will mostly be located within the European Economic Area (EEA) but in few cases they will be in countries outside of the EEA, with privacy standards that differ from the GDPR. However, all of our associates are subject to confidentiality, and transfers from Terumo Europe to affiliates outside the EEA are covered by an intercompany data transfer agreement in line with EU privacy and data protection law and with respect to the Standard Contractual Clauses provided by the European Commission.

b)        Externally

We may share your data to selected third parties outside Terumo who provide services to us or on our behalf, such as:

  • agencies that provide test to assess your experience and skills.
  • recruitment and selection offices that submit candidates to conduct initial interviews and administer personality and skills tests.

These companies are directly subject to the legal obligations imposed by the GDPR. This implies that your personal data will be protected by these organizations in accordance with the obligations imposed by the GDPR.

We process your personal data for as long as it is necessary for the purposes for which we need it.
