SAC Applicant Privacy Notice
Last updated 14 August 2026.
​
Strategic Alternative Corp. ("SAC") handles applicant personal data for recruitment and related legal and records purposes. This notice applies when you apply through the SAC website or an official SAC recruitment channel.
​
1. What we collect
At the initial application stage, SAC may collect your name, contact details, role and work-location preference, resume, education, qualifications, skills, and employment history. SAC will request government IDs, clearances, medical information, payroll details, or other sensitive records only later, when needed for a legitimate recruitment, pre-employment, employment, client, or legal requirement.
​
2. How and why we use it
We use applicant data to receive and review applications, assess suitability for a role, communicate with you, verify information when appropriate, schedule recruitment steps, make hiring decisions, prevent fraud, meet legal obligations, and establish or defend legal claims. Processing is based on recruitment steps you request, applicable legal obligations, legitimate recruitment and business needs, and consent where the law requires it.
​
3. Who may receive it
Access is limited to authorized SAC recruitment, HR, hiring, and management personnel; a relevant client representative when necessary for a specific role and permitted by law; service providers supporting recruitment; and public authorities or advisers when required by law. Information must be used only for the authorized purpose.
​
4. Retention and security
If you are hired, relevant information becomes part of your personnel records. If you are not hired, SAC keeps the application only for the recruitment process and any applicable legal or records period, then securely deletes or anonymizes it under SAC's retention rules. SAC does not use website applications as a general resume pool at launch.
​
5. Your choices and rights
You may choose not to provide optional information, but SAC may be unable to assess an application without information necessary for the role. Subject to applicable law, you may request access, correction, erasure or blocking, object to processing, withdraw consent where consent is used, request data portability where applicable, or file a complaint with the National Privacy Commission.
