What personal data we collect and why we collect it

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

An anonymised string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

Data

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognise and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where we send your data

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

Your contact information

We do not share your contact information with any third parties. Contact information is shared solely internally within Slí Nua Careers for purposes of fulfilling our work.

If we wish to add you to our marketing database, we will first obtain your express permission for this purpose.

How we protect your data:

We take the security of your data seriously and employ industry-standard measures to safeguard it. This includes using encryption, firewalls, and other technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal information against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. Additionally, access to your personal data is restricted to authorised personnel who need it to perform their job duties.

What data breach procedures we have in place:

In the unfortunate event of a data breach, we have established comprehensive procedures to promptly identify, assess, and mitigate the breach. Our response protocol includes notifying affected individuals and relevant authorities as required by applicable laws and regulations. We also undertake efforts to investigate the cause of the breach, implement measures to prevent future breaches, and provide support to affected users, including offering credit monitoring services where appropriate.

What third parties we receive data from:

We may receive data from various third parties to enhance our services and provide you with a better user experience. These third parties may include social media platforms, advertising networks, analytics providers, AI providers, and payment processors. Any data received from these third parties is used in accordance with this Privacy Policy and may be combined with the information we collect directly from you.

What automated decision making and/or profiling we do with user data:

We do not engage in automated decision-making processes or profiling activities that have legal or significant effects on individuals. However, we may use automated tools and algorithms to analyse user data for the purpose of improving our services, personalising content, and delivering targeted advertisements. These automated processes do not override your rights or freedoms, and you have the right to opt out of such processing where applicable.

Industry regulatory disclosure requirements:

We are committed to complying with all relevant industry regulations and standards regarding data privacy and security. As such, we may disclose your personal information as required by law, including to comply with legal obligations, regulatory requirements, or lawful requests from government authorities. Additionally, we may disclose information in connection with investigations or proceedings arising out of breaches of our terms of service or unlawful activities. We will always strive to ensure that any disclosures are made in accordance with applicable laws and regulations, and we will notify you of such disclosures as permitted by law.

Artificial Intelligence providers

We may utilise artificial intelligence (AI) technologies to enhance our services and provide you with a better user experience. When engaging with AI providers, we are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the confidentiality of your personal information. Here’s how we approach our interactions with AI platforms:

1. Anonymity and Data Protection:

   We never transmit your contact details or any personally identifying information through AI platforms. Our interactions with AI providers are conducted in a manner that preserves your anonymity and confidentiality. Any data provided to AI platforms for analysis or processing is carefully curated to exclude personally identifiable information.

2. Limited Data Sharing:

   We only share data with AI platforms that is necessary for the purposes of improving our services or obtaining insights relevant to your needs. This data is typically aggregated and anonymised to prevent identification of individual users.

3. Data Security Measures:

   We ensure that appropriate security measures are in place to protect any data that is shared with AI providers. This includes access controls, and other safeguards to prevent unauthorised access or disclosure.

4. Compliance with Privacy Regulations:

   Our engagement with AI providers is conducted in compliance with all relevant privacy regulations and standards. We adhere to applicable laws and regulations governing the handling of personal information, including data protection laws such as GDPR.

5. Transparency:

   We are transparent about our use of AI technologies and how they may impact your privacy. If you have any questions or concerns about our use of AI platforms, we encourage you to reach out to us for clarification.
