WHAT TYPES OF INFORMATION DOES THIS POLICY COVER?
This Policy covers any personal information, as suggested above, you submit through the Site as part of the job application or job search process. We encourage you not to provide sensitive information, as defined by your country's laws.
If you intend to provide us with details of a reference or any other third party as part of your CV/resume, it is your responsibility to obtain 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 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 Pakistan (and in the relevant jurisdiction(s) if the job relates to one of HBL's affiliated entities outside of Pakistan). Personal information you provide through the Site will be collected, used, transferred and disclosed ("processed") for HBL's global recruitment functions and for related management and planning purposes. It will be reviewed and processed for the purposes below by employees, consultants and/or service providers of HBL 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.
The provision of personal information on this Site is voluntary. Failure to provide sufficient information, however, may result in HBL being unable to consider your employment application, or if employment is offered, your subsequent promotion, transfer, or relocation.
HBL maintains computer systems in Pakistan and in various countries throughout the world. HBL may collect, store, process, disseminate or use your personal information in a manner that causes it to be transferred or accessed from computer systems owned or operated by or on behalf of HBL throughout its global computer network.
WHO WILL HAVE ACCESS TO PERSONAL INFORMATION?
Given the international nature of HBL's activities, HBL manages its people resources on a global basis and makes their information available to authorised personnel in any country in which HBL operates.
Your personal information will be disclosed to authorised staff within HBL and may be shared with other companies in HBL or with agents who have a business need to access such personal information and may include recruiters, human resources personnel, technical services personnel, managers, and/or their respective designees to process your application; to provide to you any services available on this Site from time to time; to communicate with you; to comply with any applicable law or regulation; to manage the relationship between you and HBL; to monitor and record services whether provided by HBL or a third party; and to communicate with credit reference and information agencies. Other than those listed below, your personal information will not be disclosed to any external body unless you have consented or HBL is under a legal obligation or entitlement or other duty to do so:
• agents, contractors or third party service suppliers providing services to support HBL's business operations
• persons under a duty of confidentiality to HBL including auditors and lawyers
• any person to whom we may transfer our rights and obligations under any agreement we may have with you.
HBL may disclose your personal information to verify or obtain additional information about you from third parties including education institutions, present and past employers and, if applicable, credit reference agencies. Credit reference agencies keep details of searches. You may contact us to find out which agencies have been used.
HBL will from time to time store personal data in accordance with the circular/directives received from the State Bank of Pakistan ("SBP") on storing banking customer data and information history and HBL will not sell or rent personal information about you to third parties for marketing purposes without your explicit consent. We may share personal information about you with selected service providers or consultants acting on our behalf, such as third parties assisting HBL with the operation of the Site (which hosts the site and the candidate database). Those third parties will be required to protect personal information consistently with the terms of this Policy.

The recipients of these disclosures may be located in Pakistan or other countries where data protection laws may not provide an equivalent level of protection to the laws in the employment applicant's home jurisdiction, and in such cases, HBL will require the recipient to provide appropriate protection for the personal information disclosed to it.
