Privacy Policy

Who we are

The Recruit Box ("we", "us") is an independent UK recruitment agency. This policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal data when you apply for a role or otherwise contact us through this website, in line with UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.

What we collect

When you apply for a role through this site, we collect:

• Your name, email address, and phone number
• Your CV and any covering note you choose to submit
• The role(s) you have applied for and your application status

When you contact us directly, we collect the details you provide in that message — typically your name, email, phone number, and the content of your enquiry.

Why we collect it

We process this data to evaluate your suitability for roles you apply for, to introduce you to potential employers with your consent, and to respond to your enquiries. We do not sell your data or share it with third parties for marketing purposes.

How long we keep it

We retain candidate data for as long as reasonably necessary to consider you for relevant roles, and no longer than 24 months from your last application, unless you ask us to delete it sooner or a longer period is required by law.

Your rights

You have the right to access, correct, or request deletion of the personal data we hold about you at any time. To make a request, contact us using the details below and we will action it without undue delay.

For any questions about this policy, or to request access to or deletion of your data, please get in touch via our contact page.
