Cooks from Spain collects and processes your Personal Data on different legal grounds, depending on the nature of the Personal Data provided and how it is processed. More information on these can be found below.

– Execution of a Contract

Most Personal Data processed by Cooks from Spain is necessary for the execution of our agreement with you or to take steps at the user’s request before entering into an agreement. An example of this is the matching of Job Seekers to Employers by Cooks from Spain.

– Legitimate interest

A second legal basis of Cooks from Spain for other types of processing of your Personal Data is its necessity for the legitimate interests of Cooks from Spain.

If the Job Seeker uses the same email address when creating a new account, the data from the previous account will not be made available to the Job Seeker again.
