• You have reviewed this GE Notice and agree that GE may process your GE Candidate Data in accordance with this GE Notice;
• You have provided any notices and obtained any consents needed to provide information concerning others (e.g., information about employment references); and
• Your GE Candidate Data may be transferred and processed worldwide, including the US and other countries that may not be deemed to provide the same level of data protection as your home country, for the purposes and in the manner specified in this GE Notice.
GE will process GE Candidate Data in accordance with this GE Notice, unless in conflict with requirements of applicable law, in which case applicable law will prevail.
Your consent to the provisions of this GE Notice is required in order to submit or make available GE Candidate Data. If you decline to submit or make available your GE Candidate Data, it may affect your ability to apply for or receive an offer of employment.
This GE Notice does not form part of any contract of employment offered to candidates hired by GE.
Definitions
GE Candidate Data is identifiable information that an individual makes available to GE either directly or indirectly in connection with the recruiting process, or sharing your work experience or interests. GE may collect GE Candidate Data directly from a job candidate or from third parties, for example, in connection with a background or employment check or employment reference, subject to your consent where required by law. GE Candidate Data may include a variety of information, such as candidate status, work history/job data, education, compensation, employer feedback, questionnaire results, contact information, previous addresses or names, additional information provided by the candidate (e.g., a cover letter), expertise or project work publicly shared, driver’s license number as required for certain positions, references, and criminal history where permitted by law.
Processing refers to any action performed on GE Candidate Data, such as collecting, recording, organizing, storing, transferring, modifying, using, disclosing, or deleting.
Sensitive GE Candidate Data is GE Candidate Data that may concern nationality or citizenship, race or ethnic origin, health information, criminal history, or trade union membership. GE
does not request or consider information concerning religion, sex life or political opinions in connection with recruiting.
Collection
You may use various electronic and paper methods to submit GE Candidate Data to GE. You agree that, in addition to collecting GE Candidate Data directly from you, GE may collect GE Candidate Data from third parties, for example, from recruiters, in connection with a background or employment check or an employment reference (subject to your consent where required by law) or, to the extent permitted by law, from a recruiting or other web site where you may have provided information about your work experience or interests.
Where legally required, GE may ask for additional information concerning instances where you, or someone close to you including certain family members or business partners, works or has worked with a government in a specified manner. In these circumstances, additional instructions will be provided to you in the course of your application. You should inform and seek agreement from any family member or business partner about whom GE has asked you to provide information in relation to this government work requirement prior to disclosing any such information to GE for these purposes.
Processing and Retention
GE processes GE Candidate Data for legitimate human resources and business management purposes. These include identifying and evaluating candidates for GE positions; record-keeping related to hiring processes; analyzing the hiring process and
outcomes; and conducting background checks, where permitted by law. In addition, GE Candidate Data may be used to comply with GE’s legal, regulatory and corporate governance requirements. If a candidate is hired, GE Candidate Data may be used in connection with his/her employment consistent with GE’s employment data protection policies.
In addition to using GE Candidate Data for the position for which you have applied, GE may retain and use your GE Candidate Data to consider you for other positions. If you do not want to be considered for other positions or would like to have your GE Candidate Data removed, you may contact GE as specified under Inquiries, Complaints, Objections and Restrictions below. Unless required for tax or other legal purposes or in connection with employment as specified above, GE Candidate Data will be retained for a maximum of three years.
Sharing with GE entities and Third Parties
GE may process GE Candidate Data jointly within the GE group of remaining and separated GE business entities when the candidate applies during a separation-related transition period. During any such separation-related transition period, all remaining and separated GE business entities remain responsible for compliance with the data protection requirements described in this GE Notice.
GE may transfer GE Candidate Data to external third-party providers performing certain services for GE. Such third-party providers have access to GE Candidate Data solely for the purposes of performing the services specified in the applicable service contract, and GE requires the providers to undertake security measures consistent with the protections specified in this GE Notice.
GE may be required to disclose certain GE Candidate Data to other third parties (1) as required by law; (2) to protect GE’s legal rights to the extent authorized or permitted by law; or (3) in an emergency where the health or safety of a candidate or other individual may be endangered. In addition, in the event of a re- organization, merger, sale, joint venture, assignment, or other transfer or disposition of all or any portion of GE’s business, GE may transfer GE Candidate Data to successor entities or parties.
International Data Transfers
GE operates globally in over 160 countries. Accordingly, GE Candidate Data may be transferred to and processed in the US and other countries that may not be deemed to provide the same level of data protection as your home country. GE maintains and applies employment data protection standards consistent with those specified in this GE Notice to its operations globally. Additionally, GE has entered into Binding Corporate Rules governing its treatment of personal information of European Union residents. Further information about GE’s Binding Corporate Rules is available here.

Sensitive GE Candidate Data

GE intends to collect Sensitive GE Candidate Data from third parties, you will be provided notice and the opportunity to consent. If you have a disability and would like GE to consider an accommodation, you may provide that information during the recruiting process. To the extent you make Sensitive GE Candidate Data available to GE, you consent to GE processing such Data in accordance with this GE Notice.
Security and Confidentiality

GE Candidate Rights
You may exercise the following rights in relation to your GE Candidate Data:
Access, Correction, Deletion and Portability: GE will provide you access to your GE Candidate Data that GE processes, as well as a means to make that data portable, to the extent required by law in your home country, regardless of the location of the GE Candidate Data processing. You may request correction or deletion of that GE Candidate Data, except where retention is required by your contractual relationship with GE, in the context of a legal dispute, or as otherwise required by law. If access, correction, deletion or portability is denied, the reason for the denial will be communicated to you. This may include the review of a decision made solely using automated processing.
Automated Decisions: GE generally does not make recruiting or hiring decisions based solely on automated decision-making within the meaning of the EU General Data Protection Regulation. In the event that GE relies solely on automated decision-making that could have a significant impact on you, GE will provide you an opportunity to express your views and will provide any other safeguards required by law.
Inquiries, Complaints, Objections and Restrictions: You may withdraw consent to the processing of your GE Candidate Data or submit inquiries, complaints, objections and/or requests to restrict processing to the processing of your GE Candidate Data by sending a request in writing to: Human Resources Data Protection Administrator, 5 Necco Street, Boston, MA 02210; by email at [email protected].
