Protection of your HR and recruitment data

Collection and processing of personal data in connection with unsolicited applications or responses to job offers

We are committed to respecting privacy and protecting personal data, in accordance with applicable data protection regulations and our ethical and compliance commitments.

By submitting an unsolicited application or responding to a job offer, you are informed that the Data Controller collects and processes your personal data as part of the recruitment process.

Your personal data are processed in order to review your application and assess the suitability of your profile, experience and qualifications for roles that may be offered to you within the Roullier Group.

To facilitate the review of applications, recruitment support features and tools designed to match skills, experience and open positions may be used within the Group’s recruitment tools. These features help identify opportunities that may match your profile and assist recruiters in assessing applications.

No decision producing legal effects concerning you, or similarly significantly affecting you, is made solely on the basis of automated processing. Recruitment decisions always involve human intervention.

This processing is necessary in order to take pre-contractual steps at your request as part of the recruitment process. The Data Controller may also have a legitimate interest in retaining your application in order to offer you other opportunities that may match your profile.

Job offers published on our main website may redirect applicants to the external Cornerstone platform, which is used for recruitment management and acts as a processor on behalf of the Data Controller.

The Roullier Group, its establishments and subsidiaries may receive your personal data for the purposes of processing your application.

Only persons involved in the recruitment process are authorised to access your personal data, within the scope of their respective responsibilities. This may include the recruitment department, human resources teams and relevant management.

Your application may also be shared with other recruiters within the Group in order to offer you opportunities that may match your profile.

Your personal data may also be disclosed to processors involved in the recruitment process, in particular external recruitment agencies or IT service providers involved in the administration and operation of recruitment tools.

These service providers may access your personal data only to the extent necessary for the performance of the services entrusted to them and in accordance with the instructions of the Data Controller.

Once the recruitment process has been completed, and unless you object, your personal data may be retained in our candidate database for a maximum period of two years from the date of our last contact with you, so that we may offer you other career opportunities that match your profile.

Your personal data are hosted within the European Union. In the event of a transfer of personal data to a country outside the European Economic Area, such transfer will be governed in accordance with applicable data protection regulations and will be subject to appropriate safeguards.

In accordance with applicable national and European data protection regulations, you have the right to access, rectify, erase and transfer your personal data, as well as the right to request the restriction of processing or to object to the processing of your personal data.

Where certain processing activities are based on your consent, you may withdraw your consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before such withdrawal.

To exercise your rights, obtain further information or report any issue regarding the processing of your personal data, you may contact the Data Protection Officer:

• By email: [email protected] 
• By post:
  DPO – Timac Agro International
  27, avenue Franklin Roosevelt
