Data Protection and Privacy

The Welsh Government is committed to respecting your privacy. Any information you provide in relation to your application will be processed in accordance with Data Protection legislation.

We take our obligations under data protection legislation seriously: these require us to explain how the data you provide to us as part of the application process and any other personal data which may be created in connection with your application, may be used. Any data about you will be held in secure conditions, with access restricted to those who need it in connection with dealing with your application and selection (i.e. those involved in the selection, recruitment and employment functions). Data may also be used for the purposes of monitoring the effectiveness of the selection process, but in these circumstances, all data will be anonymised. Personal data relating to your application will be kept in secure conditions for up to three years if you are unsuccessful. If you are appointed to a role, the data will be transferred to your Welsh Government employment record. We will be unable to process your application unless we can use your personal data in the ways described above.
