Privacy Policy

This Privacy Statement explains how and why Natura &Co, as well as the constituent group companies: Natura, Avon, The Body Shop and Aesop, will collect and process your personal information, as part of the recruitment process.

 

1 Who is responsible for your personal information

This Privacy Statement applies to job applicants applying for roles at Natura &Co, or roles at one of the individual constituent group companies (Natura, Avon, The Body Shop or Aesop). References to “us”, “we” or “our” in this Privacy Statement mean Natura &Co, Avenida Alexandre Colares no. 1188, Vila Jaguara, Sao,Paolo, SP, 05106-000, Brazil who is a controller of your personal information. If your job application is successful, the relevant Privacy Statement for Employees will apply upon your acceptance of a job offer (and a copy will be supplied by the relevant HR team, depending on the entity that is employing you).

2 Personal information we collect about you

When using the term “personal information” in this Privacy Statement, we mean information that relates to you and allows us to identify you, either directly or in combination with other information that we may hold. This may be provided directly from you or from a third party, such as an employment agency or referee, or an existing Natura &Co, Natura, Avon, The Body Shop or Aesop employee.
The personal information we collect, use and process about you during the recruitment process, may include:

  • your contact details (including your name, address, telephone number and personal e-mail address);
  • your gender;
  • your date of birth;
  • personal information included in a CV, any application form, cover letter or provided at interview or during an assessment (including details of your skills, qualifications, any professional membership, experience and work history with previous employers references);
  • current remuneration, benefits and entitlements;
  • information about your right to work and copies of proof of right to work documentation; and
  • (if applicable), National ID information, identification documentation, qualification certificates, driving licence or other background check documentation.

Some personal information that we may collect has special protection under data protection laws (referred to as “special categories” of personal information), for example:

  • whether or not you have a disability for which the company needs to make reasonable adjustments during the recruitment process; and
  • information about your racial or ethnic origin, religious or philosophical beliefs.

We may collect special categories of personal information where it necessary for us to do so to exercise our rights as an employer and to meet our obligations as an employer and under social security laws.
For some roles, we may also collect and process information about criminal convictions and offences where appropriate and as permitted by applicable data protection laws. We will treat any personal information provided by you about any personal relation (such as an emergency contact, beneficiary or dependent) in the same manner as we treat your personal information

3 How and why we use the personal information that we collect

Primarily, your personal information is used to manage the recruitment process, assess your suitability for employment or engagement and to decide to whom to offer a contract of employment to. We will also use your personal information to comply with statutory and/or regulatory requirements and obligations, such as equality and immigration legislation. In some cases your personal information may be used where it is necessary for us to pursue our legitimate business interests in ensuring effective HR, personnel management and business administration. Where you are asked to provide personal information (including special categories) for the purpose of monitoring equal opportunities, this will be voluntary and on the basis of your consent (which you can withdraw at any time by contacting us), unless a legal requirement to which we are subject requires us to collect this data. If you do not provide particular personal information we may not be able to process your job application properly or at all. Further, we may not be able to enter into a contract with you. If you would like more detailed information on your obligation to provide particular personal information, please contact your local HR contact.

4 How we may share or transfer the data we collect

We may share your personal information with other companies in the Natura &Co group (for more information see https://naturaeco.com/); suppliers providing services to us in order to help us run our business, improve our services and the job applicant and employee experience; and government authorities. We use appropriate safeguards to protect personal information which is transferred to countries outside of the European Economic Area which are considered to provide a lower level of protection for personal information. European Commission-approved Standard Contractual Clauses and other legally acceptable transfer mechanisms are in place with our email system provider and IT support and IT system maintenance suppliers.
Where considered appropriate, personal information may be sourced from third parties to complete pre-employment background checks, and we will inform you in advance if we will carry out such checks on you. Any sharing of your personal information will be for the purposes set out above at paragraph 3 (including the engagement of third party service providers, who may act as controllers of your personal information) or to comply with specific legal obligations to which we are subject.

5 How long we keep your personal information

If you are not appointed as an employee of Natura &Co or any of its constituent companies, do not have an active job application in progress, and your account remains inactive for 6 months (if you are applying in Germany this will be 4 months), your personal information will be deleted. If you become an employee, the periods for which we will keep your personal information will be provided to you in the Privacy Statement for Employees provided to you on joining (referenced above). If you would like more specific information please contact us. If you have previously given your consent to any processing or to any other matter, you can withdraw your consent at any time.

6 Your rights

You have a right to request access to the personal information that we hold about you and to have any inaccurate personal information we hold about you rectified. You may also have the right to restrict the processing of your personal information, to port your personal information to another controller or to have your personal information erased. If you would like your account deleted, you can request this via account settings, and the request will be actioned within 1 month. If you have an issue or complaint about how we handle your personal information, please contact us. In the event we are unable to resolve the issue, contact your local data privacy supervisory authority.
