Artificial Intelligence and Automated Processing

Talent Cloud uses technology-assisted assessment and matching processes to support workforce and employability programmes.

This may include assessment scoring, interview analysis, readiness evaluation, opportunity matching, and recommendation generation.

These tools are designed to assist programme delivery and decision-making. Talent Cloud does not rely solely on automated processing to make final employment decisions on behalf of employers. Human review and employer decision-making remain important parts of the overall process.

Where required by applicable law, individuals may request information about automated processing activities and may exercise relevant privacy rights.

Talent Cloud primarily stores and processes data using secure cloud infrastructure.

Where personal data is transferred outside the United Kingdom or the country in which it was originally collected, appropriate safeguards will be implemented in accordance with applicable data protection laws.

Data Security

We maintain appropriate technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal data from unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration, and disclosure.

Access is restricted to authorised personnel and approved service providers with legitimate business requirements.

Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to provide services, support programme delivery, meet contractual obligations, satisfy legal and regulatory requirements, or establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

Where information is no longer required, it will be securely deleted or anonymised.

Children's Data

Talent Cloud may support programmes involving participants under the age of 18.

Where this occurs, personal data will be processed in accordance with applicable laws, safeguarding requirements and programme-specific arrangements. Additional protections may apply depending on programme requirements and participant age.
