Job Applicant Privacy Notice (compliant with GDPR)

As part of any recruitment process, Panopto collects and processes personal data relating to job applicants. The organization is committed to being transparent about how it collects and uses that data and to meeting its data protection obligations.

What information do we collect?

·       Panopto collects a range of information about you. This includes:

·       your name, address and contact details, including email address and telephone number;

·       details of your qualifications, skills, experience and employment history;

·       information about your current level of remuneration, including benefit entitlements;

·       whether or not you have a disability for which the organization needs to make reasonable adjustments during the recruitment process; and

·       information about your entitlement to work in the UK.

Panopto may collect this information in a variety of ways. For example, data might be contained in application forms, CVs or resumes, obtained from your passport or other identity documents, or collected through interviews or other forms of assessment. We may also collect personal data about you from third parties, such as references supplied by former employers. We will seek information from third parties only once a job offer to you has been made and will inform you that we are doing so. Data will be stored in a range of different places, including on your application record, in HR management systems and on other IT systems (including email).

Why does Panopto process personal data?

We need to process data to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract with you. We may also need to process your data to enter into a contract with you. In some cases, we need to process data to ensure that we are complying with its legal obligations. For example, it is mandatory to check a successful applicant's eligibility to work in the UK before employment starts.

Panopto has a legitimate interest in processing personal data during the recruitment process and for keeping records of the process. Processing data from job applicants allows us to manage the recruitment process, assess and confirm a candidate's suitability for employment and decide to whom to offer a job. We may also need to process data from job applicants to respond to and defend against legal claims. Panopto may process special categories of data, such as information about ethnic origin, sexual orientation or religion or belief, to monitor recruitment statistics. We may also collect information about whether or not applicants are disabled to make reasonable adjustments for candidates who have a disability. We process such information to carry out its obligations and exercise specific rights in relation to employment.

If your application is unsuccessful, Panopto may keep your personal data on file in case there are future employment opportunities for which you may be suited. We will ask for your consent before it keeps your data for this purpose and you are free to withdraw your consent at any time.

Who has access to data?

Your information may be shared internally for the purposes of the recruitment exercise. This includes members of the HR and recruitment team, interviewers involved in the recruitment process, managers in the business area with a vacancy and IT staff if access to the data is necessary for the performance of their roles.

We will not share your data with third parties, unless your application for employment is successful and we make you an offer of employment. We will then share your data with former employers to obtain references for you, employment background check providers to obtain necessary background checks.

How does Panopto protect data?

We take the security of your data seriously. We have internal policies and controls in place to ensure that your data is not lost, accidentally destroyed, misused or disclosed, and is not accessed except by our employees in the proper performance of their duties.

For how long does Panopto keep data?

If your application for employment is unsuccessful, the organization will hold your data on file for 6 (six) months after the end of the relevant recruitment process. If you agree to allow us to keep your personal data on file, we will hold your data on file for a further 6 (six) months for consideration for future employment opportunities. At the end of that period, or once you withdraw your consent, your data is deleted or destroyed. You will be asked when you submit your CV whether you give us consent to hold your details for the full 12 months in order to be considered for other positions or not.

If your application for employment is successful, personal data gathered during the recruitment process will be transferred to your Human Resources file (electronic and paper based) and retained during your employment. The periods for which your data will be held will be provided to you in a new privacy notice.

Your rights

As a data subject, you have a number of rights. You can:

·       access and obtain a copy of your data on request;

·       require the organization to change incorrect or incomplete data;

·       require the organization to delete or stop processing your data, for example where the data is no longer necessary for the purposes of processing; and

·       object to the processing of your data where Panopto is relying on its legitimate interests as the legal ground for processing.

If you would like to exercise any of these rights, please contact px@panopto.com. If you believe that the organization has not complied with your data protection rights, you can complain to the Information Commissioner.

What if you do not provide personal data?

You are under no statutory or contractual obligation to provide data to Panopto during the recruitment process. However, if you do not provide the information, we may not be able to process your application properly or at all.

 

Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI)

Panopto AI Use Policy:

Panopto’s AI Use Policy is committed to a hiring process that is thoughtful, fair, and centered on human connection. As artificial intelligence (AI) becomes more prevalent in the workplace, we believe that it is important to describe our use of AI in the hiring process, as well as outline to candidates what use of AI is and is not allowed. While AI can be a valuable tool, it cannot replace genuine human interaction or an individual’s unique perspective, experience, and voice. 

Company Use of AI: 

Panopto may utilize tools to enhance the efficiency, objectivity, and quality of our recruitment and evaluation process. These tools assist our team throughout the hiring lifecycle by focusing on four key areas:

• Content Creation: Providing a starting point for crafting job descriptions and assisting in building tailored interview questions.

• Resume Parsing: Analyzing candidate skillsets and resume alignment to efficiently identify qualified candidates.

• Interview & Assessment Insights: Providing interview transcription, summarization, and identifying key insights from candidate assessments in relation to specific role requirements.

• Data Organization: Organizing and storing information gathered during assessments to help our team make informed, data-driven decisions.

Ultimately, these tools are used to support—not replace—our team in assessing skills, generating insights, and identifying the best talent for Panopto.

To ensure fairness and transparency:

Human-Centric Decisions: Please be assured that AI tools are used to support our team, and all final hiring decisions are made by human reviewers. Panopto hiring teams will thoroughly review your application and assessment results. AI is not used to make final decisions regarding your candidacy.

Bias Mitigation: We are committed to algorithmic fairness. Our AI-assisted tools undergo regular independent audits to detect and mitigate bias, with the goal of keeping our processes equitable and inclusive. Our methodology aligns with global best practices and regional digital ethics standards to provide every candidate with a fair and merit-based evaluation.

Your Rights & Accommodations: We provide inclusive access for all applicants. If you require a reasonable adjustment due to a disability, or if you prefer a non-automated review of your application, please contact Panopto Talent Attraction. We respect your right to request human intervention; please note that opting for a manual review may impact the standard processing timeline.

Data Privacy and Security:

Your personal data and recordings are processed securely in compliance with global privacy and employment regulations (including EEOC, GDPR, and other local or regional privacy laws, as applicable).

To facilitate our recruitment and evaluation process, limited candidate data may be shared securely with trusted third-party vendors and service providers acting on our behalf. We retain candidate data only as long as necessary to fulfill the recruitment purpose or as required by applicable statutory retention periods. Once this purpose is met, or the retention period expires, your data is securely deleted or anonymized in accordance with our data governance policy.

Panopto is dedicated to a fair and equitable hiring process for all candidates. 

Use of AI: 

Statement of Transparency:

At Panopto, we embrace the transformative power of AI to enhance productivity and learning. We believe in providing a level playing field where candidates can use modern tools to put their best foot forward, provided those tools support, rather than replace, their authentic voice and expertise. While we encourage the use of AI as a tool for growth and preparation, we require transparency and authenticity to ensure a fair evaluation for all. 

Acceptable Use:

• AI-Assisted Preparation: You are encouraged to use Generative AI (e.g., ChatGPT, Gemini) as a mock interviewer or coach to refine your speaking points.

• Research & Knowledge Gathering: Using AI to synthesize industry trends or company background is permitted and viewed as proactive preparation.

• Career Guidance Tools: Simulation tools that help you practice the STAR method or identify skill gaps are acceptable.

Prohibited Use:

• Live Interview Assistance: The use of real-time AI "teleprompters," live answer-generators, or deepfake audio/video during Panopto recordings or live sessions is strictly prohibited.

• Plagiarized Work Samples: Any take-home assignments or portfolios must be your original work. While AI can assist in formatting or brainstorming, the core logic and execution must be yours.

Panopto has a zero-tolerance policy toward the misrepresentation of job-related skills. Consequences of using prohibited tools may result in my immediate disqualification from the hiring process, the withdrawal of any pending offer, or termination of employment if discovered after hire.

Verification of Experience:

To ensure the integrity of our hiring process and validate the skills demonstrated during your Panopto submission, Panopto may require the following "Proof of Experience":

• Work Samples & Portfolios: Candidates may be asked to provide original work samples (e.g., code repositories, design portfolios, case studies) that pre-date the current application.

• Digital Footprint & Professional Links: We may request links to professional profiles (e.g., LinkedIn, GitHub, Behance) to verify career trajectory and industry contributions.

Disclosures:

• Live Validation: Any technical skill demonstrated in an asynchronous Panopto recording is subject to a live, "Human-in-the-Loop" technical assessment or deep-dive discussion.

• Fraud Detection: Please be aware that we utilize metadata analysis and fraud detection tools to ensure the authenticity of all video submissions.

By submitting your application and participating in the recruitment process, you acknowledge and consent to Panopto's use of AI, as well as the acceptable and prohibited uses of AI as a candidate, as described above.

 

Panopto is dedicated to a fair and equitable hiring process for all candidates.
