WHAT TYPES OF INFORMATION DOES THIS POLICY COVER?

This Policy covers any personal information you submit through the Site as part of the job application or job search process, including, without limitation, your name, contact information, password, CV, resume and education information. In addition, you may, depending on the location of the job that you are applying for and/or the country you are applying from, be asked to provide other information as part of your application, such as your gender, race, religion, ethnicity, disability status or sexual orientation; provided, however, you are only required to answer the questions marked as mandatory in order for your application to be processed, while other questions that are not marked as mandatory may be answered on a voluntary basis and your election not to answer such voluntary questions will not affect your application. Please provide only information that is in accordance with local laws.

If you intend to provide us with any personal information about a reference or any other third party as part of your CV/resume or job application, you hereby represent to M&T that you have obtained such third party's consent prior to passing their personal information to us.

You are responsible for the content of the information you provide to us and you must ensure it is legal, honest, truthful, accurate and is not misleading in any way.


HOW WILL THE PERSONAL INFORMATION SUBMITTED BE USED?

The information that you submit on the Site will be stored in the United States (and in the relevant jurisdiction(s) if the job relates to one of M&T's affiliated entities or subsidiaries outside of the United States). It will be reviewed and processed for the purposes below by employees, consultants and/or service providers and/or by automated means of M&T entities around the world. Please note that the laws regarding personal information in some of the jurisdictions involved may be less stringent than the laws of the country in which you reside.

Personal information you provide through the Site will be collected, used, stored, transferred, disclosed and otherwise processed ("processed") for M&T`s recruitment functions and for related management, information, planning and record-keeping purposes. This will include determining whether you are a suitable applicant for any role(s) that you apply for, and shortlisting, selection and arranging interviews. Any information collected from you on this site, or during the interview process, will also be used to determine whether you will proceed through the application process and whether M&T will extend an offer of any employment to you. This includes ensuring all candidates are assessed against and are aligned with M&T’s leadership standards. By doing so, we will be able to be the best for our clients. For these reasons, the information we collect from you is essential for our recruitment process and is in our legitimate interests as an employer, but also in the interests of our clients, regulators and employees. It is also important for you that you are the right fit for our organization. The information you submit will be used for these purposes by M&T Recruiters, Managers and HR Professionals.

In addition, M&T will collect and use the personal information you provide to M&T to process your application; to provide to you any services available on this Site from time to time; to communicate with you about your job application; to comply with any applicable laws and regulations or in connection with any legal claims; to manage the relationship between you and M&T; to monitor and record services whether provided by a M&T company or a third party; to inform you about new vacancies and events relevant to our recruiting initiatives, in particular for graduates and to communicate with credit reference and information agencies (such as for background checks, screenings, references and other quantitative and qualitative testing purposes), where appropriate and as permitted under applicable local laws. If you opt into M&T`s candidate database, personal information about you will be used for the purposes of considering whether your profile is suitable for other job vacancies at M&T.
