Dit privacy beleid is van toepassing op de geheel of gedeeltelijk geautomatiseerde verwerking van persoonsgegevens die het Concertgebouworkest van haar sollicitanten verzamelt. Persoonsgegevens zijn gegevens over een geïdentificeerde of identificeerbare natuurlijke persoon. Wij raden u aan dit privacy beleid goed door te lezen, zodat u op de hoogte bent welke persoonsgegevens worden verwerkt, voor welke doeleinden en op welke wijze we persoonsgegevens beheren.

3. Applicants’ data

The following types of personal data may be collected and processed:

  • General personal details such as surname, first name, initials, address, email address, telephone number, date of birth and gender.
  • Details concerning your application, such as the information contained in your covering letter and CV.

The Concertgebouworkest expressly does not process any private or sensitive personal data regarding such things as religion or belief, racial or ethnic background, political affiliation, sexual orientation or trade union membership.
  • Other personal data which you choose to share with us during the application process.

In limited circumstances, we may seek your consent to process certain personal data.
