Further, we process personal information based on consent (cf. GDPR article 6 no. 1 a). This is for instance the case for recruitment, where the potential employee may consent to Aviao Aviation Training Consultancy retaining information regarding the applicant for a period of time after the application.

The legal basis for processing information relating to union membership and health data is that the processing is necessary for the purposes of carrying out our obligations as an employer towards our employees and for exercising our or the employee’s specific rights in the field of employment and social security and social protection law insofar as authorized by applicable law or a collective agreement pursuant to local law.
