As a candidate for employment, you may provide us with personal information, including but not limited to your name, contact details, resume, and other relevant data during the application process. We collect this information to facilitate your application and assess your suitability for available positions. We take reasonable steps to ensure that the personal data we collect is accurate, complete, and up to date.
