Your Privacy Matters to Us

The Interview Practice provides job-search support, CV guidance, interview preparation resources, educational content, newsletters and live Candidate Q&A sessions.

For questions about this Privacy Policy or how we use your personal information, please contact us at hello@theinterview-practice.com.

Depending on how you interact with The Interview Practice, we may collect your name, email address, information you submit when registering for a Candidate Q&A, questions you choose to submit, information you provide when downloading a resource or joining The Interview Practice Community, feedback or comments you send us, information provided when contacting us directly, information relating to bookings or services you request from us, and technical or website usage information such as pages visited, interactions with the website, device information and referral source.

We only ask for information that is relevant to the service or interaction concerned.

We may collect personal information when you complete a form on our website, download one of our free resources, register for a Candidate Q&A, join The Interview Practice Community, submit a question or feedback, contact us by email or social media, book or request a service from us, or use and interact with our website.

Some technical information may also be collected automatically through analytics tools, cookies and similar technologies.

We may use your personal information to provide resources you have requested, confirm registrations for Candidate Q&A sessions, send event information and reminders, respond to questions submitted for sessions, send newsletters and candidate-support emails where you have chosen to receive them, provide CV, interview and job-search guidance, respond to enquiries, manage The Interview Practice Community, provide or administer services you have requested, collect and review feedback, improve our website, resources, events and services, understand how people find and use our website, maintain appropriate records and comply with legal or regulatory obligations.

We will not sell your personal information to advertisers or other organisations.

If you choose to receive emails from The Interview Practice, we may send you newsletters and other candidate-support communications, including CV advice, interview guidance, job-search support, invitations to Candidate Q&A sessions, reminders for sessions you have registered for, new resources or content, and occasional information about The Interview Practice services.

You can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time using the unsubscribe link included in our emails.

If you unsubscribe, we may retain limited information so that we can respect your preference and avoid sending you further marketing communications.

Under UK data protection law, we must have a lawful reason for using your personal information.

Depending on the circumstances, we may rely on consent, where you have actively chosen to receive marketing or candidate-support communications from us; contract or steps before entering into a contract, where information is required to provide a service you have requested or booked; legitimate interests, where it is reasonably necessary for us to operate and improve The Interview Practice, respond to enquiries, understand how our services are being used or maintain appropriate business records; and legal obligation, where we need to process or retain information to meet a legal or regulatory requirement.

Where we rely on consent, you can withdraw it at any time.

When you register for one of our Candidate Q&A sessions, we may use the information you provide to administer your registration, send confirmation and reminder emails and help us prepare useful content for the session.

If you submit a question, we may answer or discuss that question during the session.

Live sessions may be recorded, repurposed or streamed where appropriate. Where this applies, we will take reasonable steps not to disclose unnecessary personal information about participants.

Where sessions are delivered using a third-party online events platform, that provider may also process information in accordance with its own privacy terms.

If you choose to provide feedback about The Interview Practice, we may store and review that feedback.

We will not automatically publish feedback simply because it has been submitted.

Where we wish to display a testimonial, comment or review publicly, we will only use information in a way that is appropriate and consistent with the context in which it was provided.

We use analytics tools to help us understand how people use The Interview Practice website.

This may include information about which pages people visit, how visitors arrived at the website, how long people engage with particular pages, which content is used most frequently, and general technical information about devices and browsers.

We use this information to improve the website, understand which content is useful and measure the effectiveness of our marketing and communications.

Analytics information is generally used in an aggregated form rather than to identify individual visitors.

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to operate the website, understand website usage and improve the visitor experience.

Some cookies may be essential for the website to function. Others, including certain analytics cookies, are non-essential.

Where required by law, we will ask for your consent before placing non-essential cookies on your device. You can also manage cookies through your browser settings.

We use trusted third-party service providers to help us operate The Interview Practice. These include providers that support our website and forms, email and newsletter delivery, data storage, website analytics and online events.

These organisations may process personal information on our behalf where necessary to provide their services. We take reasonable steps to use reputable providers and appropriate data-protection arrangements.

Some providers may process information outside the United Kingdom. Where this happens, we take appropriate steps to ensure that safeguards required under UK data-protection law are in place.

We do not keep personal information for longer than we reasonably need it. How long information is retained depends on why it was collected.

Marketing information may be retained while you remain subscribed. Candidate Q&A registration information may be retained to administer sessions and maintain appropriate records. Enquiries may be retained where necessary to respond to you and maintain relevant records. Information relating to services may be retained for legal, accounting or administrative purposes.

Anonymised or aggregated analytics information may be retained for longer because it does not directly identify you.

We periodically review the information we hold and remove or anonymise information where it is no longer required.

We take reasonable organisational and technical measures to protect personal information against loss, misuse, unauthorised access, disclosure or alteration.

Where third-party systems are used, we select established providers and limit access to personal information to what is reasonably required.

No online system can be guaranteed to be completely secure, but we take data protection seriously and review the way we handle information as our services develop.

Under UK data protection law, you may have the right to ask what personal information we hold about you, request a copy of your personal information, ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete information, ask us to delete your information in certain circumstances, ask us to restrict how we use your information, object to certain types of processing, request the transfer of your information where applicable, and withdraw your consent at any time where processing is based on consent.

To exercise any of these rights, contact hello@theinterview-practice.com.

You also have the right to raise a concern with the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) if you believe your personal information has not been handled appropriately.

The Interview Practice website may contain links to social media platforms and other external websites.

If you follow one of these links, the external organisation's own privacy policy and terms will apply. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of external websites.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time as The Interview Practice develops, our services change or legal requirements are updated.

The latest version will always be published on this page, together with the date it was last updated.

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, your personal information or how The Interview Practice uses your data, please contact hello@theinterview-practice.com.
