All disclosed information about you is presented to a third party for the purposes of servicing you to attain a job or provide a service on our behalf. The exchange of personal data about you to our clients is fundamental to our business and essential in providing you with the service you expect from us. We disclose your personal information to our third party suppliers in confidence and in accordance with the law for the purpose of providing our services to you, conducting our business and communicating with you.

Accordingly, while we seek to protect your personal information by implementing digital security systems in various parts of our website and digital platforms, HiTech cannot accept responsibility for the security of information you send to or receive from us over the Internet, including any form of digital transfer or for any unauthorised access or use of that information. Where we have links to websites outside HiTech, we cannot ensure that your privacy will be protected in accordance with this policy.

Where you request your personal information to be updated and there is a dispute about the facts, we will make a note on your personal information file of such disputes. You may also request that HiTech stops using your information and contacting you and we will comply with your request. However, if this involves a request for deletion of your file, please be aware that we may not be required or able to do so, particularly where your file also holds information about our clients. We reserve the right to charge an administrative fee for access and updating requests.
