How IFTSUK — Information-Tech Service Limited — collects, uses and protects your personal data.
IFTSUK (Information-Tech Service Limited) is a UK-based specialist technology recruitment agency. For the purposes of UK data protection law, we act as a data controller for the personal data we collect through this website and in the course of our recruitment services.
This policy explains what personal data we collect, why we collect it, how we use it, and the rights you have over it. It applies to candidates, clients, and anyone who otherwise visits or uses iftsuk.com.
We collect personal data in the following ways:
We use the information we collect to:
Where we ask you to register before submitting a CV or a vacancy, we rely on your consent, which you give by ticking the relevant box on the registration form. You may withdraw this consent at any time by contacting us (see "How to contact us" below) and asking us to delete your details.
Where we go on to act as your recruitment agency — for example, submitting your CV to a specific client, or progressing a vacancy you've registered — we also rely on the processing being necessary to perform that service, and on our legitimate interests in running a recruitment business responsibly.
As a recruitment agency, sharing relevant candidate information with prospective employers (and relevant vacancy information with candidates we're representing) is central to what we do. We only share what's necessary for that purpose, and we don't sell personal data to third parties.
We may also share personal data with:
We keep candidate and client registration data for as long as is reasonably necessary to provide our recruitment services and to maintain accurate business records — typically no longer than is needed to fulfil the purposes described in this policy, or as required by UK tax and employment-related record-keeping obligations. You can ask us to delete your data sooner, as described under "Your rights" below.
We take reasonable technical and organisational steps to protect the personal data we hold, including restricting direct access to stored registration records, using encrypted connections (HTTPS) across this website, and sending notification emails over an authenticated, encrypted mail connection. No system can be guaranteed completely secure, but we review our approach periodically and act promptly on any concerns raised.
Under UK data protection law, you have the right to:
To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below. If you're unhappy with how we've handled your data, you also have the right to complain to the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk.
This website does not currently use analytics or marketing cookies. If that changes in future — for example, if we add website analytics — we will update this policy and, where required, ask for your consent first via a cookie notice.
Our services are intended for use by adults seeking employment or recruitment services, and this website is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under the age of 18.
We may update this policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal obligations. The "last updated" date at the top of this page shows when it was last revised. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
