We collect personal information about candidates through the application and recruitment process, either directly from candidates or sometimes from third parties (including recruitment agencies, former employers and credit reference agencies). Recruitment agencies which collect and use your personal information, including for the purpose of introducing you as a candidate to KKR, act as the controller of your personal information for that purpose and so are subject to a separate privacy notice provided by the agencies to you.

Please see below a list of the categories of personal information about you that we collect, store, and use:

• personal contact details such as name, title, addresses, telephone numbers, and personal email addresses.
• date of birth;
• gender;
• nationality;
• current salary, annual leave, pension and benefits information;
• current notice period;
• desired start date with KKR;
• desired location of employment or workplace;
• passport number and driver’s license;
• recruitment information (including copies of right to work documentation, references and other information included in a CV or cover letter or as part of the application process);
• employment records (including job titles, responsibilities, work history, working hours, language capabilities, training records, appraisal and fitness and propriety records and professional memberships);
• compensation history; and
• visual images and photographs required for business purposes.

Most commonly, we will use your personal information in the following circumstances:

1. to take steps prior to entering into a contract with you (for example your employment contract, consultancy contract or partnership agreement);
2. where it is necessary for our legitimate interests (or those of a third party) and your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests; and
3. where we need to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation.

Should you be successful in your application, we will only transfer personal information to your employment record if it is relevant to your ongoing working relationship with KKR.

Should you be unsuccessful in your application, we will securely destroy your application details but will keep on file your name, any additional identifiers required to distinguish candidates of the same name and the position for which you applied for future recruitment purposes unless you specifically request that this should not be the case.

In some circumstances we may anonymise your personal information so that it can no longer be associated with you, in which case we may use such information without further notice to you. Once you are no longer a candidate of KKR we will not keep any personal information about you for any longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the personal information is processed and will securely destroy it after this point.

We will only use your personal information when the law allows us to. Most commonly, we will use your personal information in the following circumstances (each a lawful basis):

1. where we need to perform the contract we are about to enter into or have entered into with you;
2. where it is necessary for our legitimate interests (as further explained in the relevant section applicable to you above) and your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests; or
3. where we need to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation.

Generally, we do not rely on consent as a legal basis for processing your personal data.

If you fail to provide certain information when requested, we may not be able to perform any contract we may have entered into with you, or we may be unable to deal with you.

We will only use your personal information for the purposes for which we collected it or as otherwise described in this privacy notice, unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason and that reason is compatible with the original purpose. If we need to use your personal information for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you and we will explain the legal basis which allows us to do so.

Please note that we may process your personal information without your knowledge or consent, in compliance with the above rules, where this is required or permitted by law.

We will share your personal information with third parties where required by law, where it is necessary to administer our relationship with you or where we have another legitimate interest in doing so. “Third parties” includes third-party service providers (including contractors) and other companies within the KKR Group worldwide.

All our third-party service providers and other companies in KKR Group are required to take appropriate security measures to protect your personal information in line with the GDPR. Except where needed for their own direct relationship with you or where they otherwise act as a controller of your personal information, we do not allow our third-party service providers to use your personal data for their own purposes. We only permit them to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.

We will share your personal information with other companies in the KKR Group and with KKR Capstone for internal administrative purposes on the lawful basis of our legitimate interests.

We may share your personal information with other third parties, for example in the context of the possible sale or restructuring of the business or an audit. If needed to comply with law and regulations, we will also need to share your personal information with a regulator, governmental agency or otherwise.

We share your personal data within the KKR Group. This will involve transferring your personal information outside the European Economic Area (EEA).

Many of our third-party service providers are based outside the EEA so their processing of your personal information will involve a transfer of data outside the EEA.

Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the EEA, we ensure a similar degree of protection is applied to it by implementing at least one of the following safeguards:

1. We will transfer your personal data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the European Commission. For further details, see European Commission: Adequacy of the protection of personal data in non-EU countries.
2. We use specific contracts approved by the European Commission which give personal information the same protection it has in Europe. For further details, see European Commission: Model contracts for the transfer of personal data to third countries.
3. We will use a data transfer mechanism approved by the European Commission or the UK authorities, as appropriate, such as an equivalent to the Privacy Shield or updated Model Contracts approved by the EU Commission or the UK government.

Please contact us (preferably via email at [email protected]) if you would like further information on the specific mechanism used by us when transferring your personal information out of the EEA.
