As part of the assessment and recruitment process it is necessary for Pareto Law to collect and process personal data.

This data may be collected from:

• CVs submitted directly to Pareto Law via our website
• Job applications submitted via the Pareto Law website

• Candidate profiles stored on third party job boards who consent to communications from prospective employers, as per job board terms and conditions
• Telephone / email communications directly with the candidate, subject to consent

Pareto Law is a committed Equal Opportunities Employer. In order to ensure we are attracting a diverse range of talent and to confirm eligibility to work in the UK, we collect data on assessment day attendees’ nationality and work eligibility. This data is confidential and will not be shared with clients or third parties.

Other personal data collected which is reasonable and necessary to assess a candidate’s suitability for a role may include living arrangements / flexibility to relocate, criminal conviction history and salary expectations.

Who Will You Share My Data With?

Pareto Law is committed to the secure storage and protection of personal data. As such, we will not share personal data with any third party without express consent.

Pareto Law’s candidate placement process requires us to share personal data with clients when putting a candidate forward for interview. This personal data can include name, contact details, qualifications, work history and other reasonable details you would expect to appear on a candidate’s CV. Pareto will seek consent from candidates before we will share personal data with a client.

Pareto Law may use your personal data to build look-a-like profiles in Google's 'Similar Audience Targeting' feature, in which the data is temporarily used to build an anonymised profile and then instantly deleted. This is covered in Pareto's Privacy Policy.

Pareto Law will not share sensitive personal data, including race, religion, nationality and political affiliations. However, nationality may be shared if a role requires nationals or native language speakers. This will be clearly stated within the job description.
