When you complete our contact or enquiry form, apply for a role through our careers page, or contact us by email or phone, we may collect your name, email address, telephone number, company or organisation, the details of your enquiry, and — where you apply for a role — your CV, cover letter and any other information you choose to provide as part of your application.

​

Information we collect automatically. When you visit our website, we may automatically collect certain technical information about your device and how you use the site, including your IP address, web browser type and version, time zone, the individual pages you view, the website or search terms that referred you to us, and how you interact with the site. We collect this information using the following technologies:

• Web beacons, tags and pixels — electronic files used to record information about how you browse the site.

​

How we use your information and our legal basis

We use your personal data only where we have a lawful basis to do so under the GDPR. The bases we rely on are:

To respond to your enquiries and provide our services. When you contact us or request a quote, we use your information to respond, to discuss your requirements, and to provide the services you request. Our lawful basis is the performance of a contract, or our legitimate interest in responding to and managing enquiries.

​

To process job applications. When you apply for a role, we use your information to assess your application, communicate with you about it, and manage our recruitment process. Our lawful basis is the taking of steps at your request prior to entering an employment contract, and our legitimate interest in recruiting for our business.

​

To operate and improve our website. We use technical and usage information to keep our website secure, understand how it is used, and improve its performance and content. Our lawful basis is our legitimate interest in running an effective website, and, for non-essential cookies, your consent.

​

To meet our legal obligations. We may process and retain personal data where we are required to do so by law.

We will only use your personal data for the purposes for which we collected it, unless we reasonably consider we need to use it for a related and compatible purpose.

​

Recruitment and job applications

If you apply for a role with us, the information you submit — including your CV and any cover letter — will be used solely for the purpose of assessing your suitability for the position and managing the recruitment process. Application enquiries submitted through our website are sent to info@callaghanelectrical.ie.

​

If your application is unsuccessful, we may retain your details for a reasonable period in case a suitable future opportunity arises, unless you ask us not to. If you are successful, your information will form part of your employment record.

​

How we share your information

We do not sell your personal data, and we do not share it with third parties for their own marketing purposes.

We may share your personal data with trusted third-party service providers who help us operate our website and business — for example, our website hosting provider, IT and email providers, and website analytics providers. These providers process personal data only on our instructions and are subject to appropriate confidentiality and data protection obligations.

​

We use Google Analytics to help us understand how visitors use our website. You can read about how Google uses your personal data at https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/, and you can opt out of Google Analytics at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

​

We may also disclose your personal data to comply with applicable laws and regulations, to respond to a lawful request such as a subpoena or search warrant, or to otherwise protect our legal rights.

​

International transfers

Some of our service providers may process or store data outside the European Economic Area (EEA), including in Canada and the United States. Where this happens, we take steps to ensure your personal data continues to receive an adequate level of protection, including by relying on appropriate safeguards such as the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses or an adequacy decision.

​

Do Not Track

Please note that we do not alter our site's data collection and use practices when we receive a Do Not Track signal from your browser.

​

Data retention

We keep your personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including to satisfy any legal, accounting or reporting requirements. When we no longer need your personal data, we will securely delete or anonymise it.

​

Data security

We have put in place appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, loss, misuse or alteration. While we take reasonable steps to protect your information, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

​
