Introduction

The private employment agency POSREDNIK PLUS – Skopje is dedicated to protecting the privacy and integrity of the personal data it comes into contact with in the course of its work. This privacy policy document specifies the types of personal data that we receive and collect when you use the website www.posrednik24.com and the services of the private employment agency Posrednik Plus – Skopje, as well as some of the steps we take to protect them.

This privacy policy complies with the Law on Personal Data Protection of the Republic of Macedonia, published in the Official Gazette No. 42 of 16.02.2020.

Important definitions

The privacy policy of Posrednik Plus is based on the terms used in the Law on Personal Data Protection. It should be understandable to the visitors of our website. To make sure that this is really the case, we explain the terms we use.

In this privacy policy we use, among others, the following terms:

Personal data

Personal data is any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (data subject). An identifiable natural person is a person whose identity can be established directly or indirectly, in particular on the basis of an identifier such as name and surname, personal identification number, location data, an online identifier, or one or more features specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that person.

Data subject

A data subject is an identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is processed by the controller responsible for the processing of personal data.

Processing of personal data

Processing of personal data is any operation or set of operations performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether by automated means or otherwise, such as collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, viewing, use, disclosure by transmission, publication or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.

Restriction of processing

Restriction of processing of personal data is the marking of stored personal data with the aim of limiting their processing in the future.

Profiling

Profiling is any form of automated processing of personal data consisting of the use of personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyse or predict aspects concerning that natural person’s performance at work, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behaviour, location or movements.

Controller

A controller is a natural or legal person, a state authority, a state body or a legal person established by the state to exercise public powers, an agency or another body which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data; where the purposes and means of processing are determined by law, the controller or the specific criteria for its nomination are determined by the same law.

Processor

A processor is a natural or legal person, a state authority, a state body or a legal person established by the state to exercise public powers, an agency or another body which processes personal data on behalf of the controller.

A recipient is a natural or legal person, a state authority, a state body or a legal person established by the state to exercise public powers, an agency or another body to which the personal data are disclosed, whether a third party or not. However, state authorities and state bodies which receive personal data in the framework of a particular inquiry in accordance with the law are not regarded as recipients; the processing of those data by these authorities must comply with the applicable data protection rules according to the purposes of the processing.

Third party

A third party is any natural or legal person, state authority, state body or legal person established by the state to exercise public powers, agency or other body other than the data subject, the controller, the processor and the persons who, under the direct authority of the controller or processor, are authorised to process the data.

Consent

Consent of the data subject is any freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous indication of will, by a statement or by a clear affirmative action, by which the data subject signifies agreement to the processing of his or her personal data.
