Who May Have Access to Your Information

Your information may be shared with our vendors in the U.S. and in other jurisdictions. If you have been referred for a job at Credence by a current Credence employee, with your consent, we may inform that employee about the progress of your application and let the Credence employee know the outcome of the process. In some cases, if it is identified that you have attended the same university/school or shared the same previous employer during the same period as a current Credence employee we may seek feedback from that employee for feedback on you.

Credence may also use service providers acting on Credence’s behalf to perform some of the services described above including for the purposes of the verification/background checks. These service providers may be located outside the country in which you live or the country where the position you have applied for is located.

Credence may sometimes be required to disclose your information to external third parties such as to local labor authorities, courts and tribunals, regulatory bodies, and/or law enforcement agencies for the purpose of complying with applicable laws and regulations, or in response to legal process.

We will also share your personal information with third parties if we have your consent, or to detect, prevent or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues, or to protect against harm to the rights, property or safety of Credence, our users, applicants, candidates, employees or the public or as otherwise required by law.

It is your responsibility to obtain consent from any person that you refer before providing their personal information to Credence.

Credence Management Solutions, LLC is a global company, which means your information may be stored and processed outside of the country or region where it was originally collected including in the United States. If Credence sends your information to a country that is not in the European Economic Activity (EEA), we will make sure that your information is properly protected. We will always ensure that there is a proper legal agreement that covers the data transfer. In addition, if the country is not considered to have laws that are equivalent to EU data protection standards then we will ask the third party to enter into a legal agreement that reflects those standards.

Credence takes appropriate steps to protect information about you that is collected, processed, and stored as part of the application and recruitment process.

Credence may retain your information to consider you for other jobs at Credence which you may be interested in in the future.
