Personal data that we collect directly from you
This Privacy Notice covers any candidate data that is collected by pawaPay for the recruitment process. This may include but is not limited to the following information:
During the recruitment process we might ask you to complete tests, or personality profile questionnaires, and/or to attend an interview – or a combination of these. Information will be generated by you and by us. For example, you might complete a written test, or we might take interview notes.
The data collected from you is voluntary and is not based on a statutory or contractual obligation to provide the personal data.
We may publish job openings on occupational platforms, and we may also find you based on your availability and profile settings in the same. In the event you apply for an opening at pawaPay through an application function on an occupational platform or similar online service provider (“Partner”), it is important to note that the relevant Partner may retain your personal data and may also collect data from pawaPay in respect of the progress of your application.
We may also receive your personal data from a third party who recommends you, or informs us of your eligibility, as a candidate for a specific opening or for our business more generally.
Tests or personality profile questionnaires, attending an interview – or a combination of these will result in personal data generated by you and us and potentially a third in the event that there is third party involvement. Any use by a Partner of your data will be in accordance with the Partner’s Privacy Notice and subject to the terms and conditions between you and Partner on one hand, and pawaPay and Partner on the other.
We do not use any automated decision making in recruitment. There is a human intermediary in each processing activity even in the event that we use third party recruitment tools with certain automated features.

Except as set out in this policy or as required by law, your personal data will not be supplied to any third party without your explicit authorization.
Since we are a remote team and some of our team members are working outside of the EU (including Africa), then in case they are in one of the above mentioned roles for the purposes of recruitment, then your information may be shared with them. All members of pawaPay team have sensitized on data protection and may process your personal data only in case it is required for the recruitment purposes and in accordance with this Privacy Notice for Prospective Employees.
