Purpose of Processing
Personal data may be processed for specified purposes including:

Candidates accept our terms and privacy notice when they register. Marketing communication and WhatsApp job alerts are optional preferences that can be switched on or off in account settings, and every email includes an unsubscribe link that stops further emails to that address. Where an employer or recruiter has added a candidate's details, the person can ask us to correct or delete them by writing to info@prismhiring.com.
