Last updated: October 13, 2025
Who We Are
Vecta is an AI recruitment agency focused on agentic AI and application development. We vet engineering candidates and introduce them to employers seeking talent.
Scope
This Policy applies to personal data processed when you browse our website, apply as a candidate, or engage with us as a business. It does not cover data processing performed by employers once you work directly with them under their own policies and agreements.
Information We Collect
- Candidate information: contact details, resume/CV, portfolio links, work history, skills, availability, rate expectations, interview notes, and fit assessments.
- Business contact information: company details, role requirements, hiring preferences, and communications.
- Usage and device data: logs, analytics, and cookies that help us operate and improve the site (see Cookies below).
Cookies and Analytics
We may use cookies and similar technologies to remember preferences, measure traffic, and improve the experience. You can control cookies through your browser settings.
How We Use Personal Data
- Evaluate candidates and determine fit for specific roles and engagements.
- Introduce vetted candidates to employers and coordinate interviews and feedback.
- Operate, maintain, and improve our site, services, and candidate experience.
- Communicate about opportunities, updates, and administrative matters.
- Comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms and policies.
- Ensure platform security, fraud prevention, and abuse detection.
Legal Bases (EEA/UK)
Where applicable, we rely on one or more legal bases: consent, contract necessity, legitimate interests (e.g., efficient recruiting and platform operation), and legal obligations.
How We Share Information
- With employers/clients to facilitate recruiting conversations after we assess a potential fit.
- With service providers that help us host, store, analyze, and communicate.
- For legal reasons, to protect rights, or in a business transfer (e.g., merger).
Payments for engagements are handled directly between employers and talent; Vecta acts as a recruitment agency and is not a party to employment or contractor agreements.
International Data Transfers
If we transfer personal data across borders, we use appropriate safeguards consistent with applicable laws (e.g., standard contractual clauses where relevant).
Data Retention
We keep personal data for as long as needed to provide services and for legitimate business or legal purposes. We may retain basic records to prevent duplicate accounts and maintain accurate recruiting history.
Security
We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal data. No system is perfectly secure; please use caution when sharing sensitive information.
Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of your personal data; to data portability; and to object to certain processing. You can also withdraw consent where consent is the legal basis.
To exercise these rights, contact us using the details below. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling a request.
Children's Privacy
Our services are not directed to children under the age of 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Policy from time to time. Material changes will be indicated on this page with an updated date.
