INTRODUCTION
Your privacy is important to Allego. We have written our privacy notice in clear terms to help you understand who we are, what personal data we collect about you, why we collect your data, and what we do with your data during our recruitment process. Please keep in mind that Allego is an international company. That means that we may have to make certain changes to this notice in order to meet local requirements and to provide you with additional information.
This notice explains how we collect your personal data and use that data in the context of our recruitment process. For example, when we contact you for job openings, if you apply to our job openings, use our recruitment channels, visit our job openings websites, participate in our recruitment events, or otherwise contact us in any way as an applicant.
In our recruitment process, we use a recruitment system that includes this privacy notice. In that system, you can expressly consent to this notice, at which point you give Allego your consent to collect, store, use, transfer, and disclose your data, including any sensitive information you decide to provide. By participating in our recruitment process, you expressly consent to the collection, storage, use, transfer, and disclosure of your data, including any sensitive information you decide to provide.
