Privacy Policy

How we collect, use and protect your personal information.

Last updated: October 2026

Who we are

Shiftly Group Limited ("Shiftly", "we", "us") is a temporary industrial staffing agency registered in England & Wales. Our registered office is at 71-75 Shelton Street, Covent Garden, London, WC2H 9JQ. We are the data controller for the personal data described in this policy and are registered with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).

You can contact us about this policy at any time by email at hello@shiftly.co.uk or by phone on 07486 390495.

What we collect

When you use our website forms or contact us, we may collect:

  • Your name, email address and phone number.
  • Details about your enquiry — for businesses, your staffing requirements; for workers, the roles you are interested in and your availability.
  • Your CV and any information it contains, if you choose to upload one when applying for work.
  • Your preferred way of being contacted (phone, email, WhatsApp or text message).
  • Technical information such as your IP address, used only to protect our forms from misuse and stored only as an anonymised fingerprint.

How we use your information

We use your personal data to:

  • Respond to your enquiry and provide our staffing services.
  • Match workers with suitable temporary roles and contact them about shifts.
  • Carry out right-to-work, vetting and compliance checks required for temporary staffing.
  • Meet our legal, tax and regulatory obligations.

Our lawful bases under UK GDPR are: performance of a contract or steps towards one, our legitimate interests in running a staffing agency, and compliance with legal obligations. Where you tick a consent box, we also rely on your consent, which you can withdraw at any time.

Who we share it with

We never sell your personal data. We share it only where necessary: with client businesses when putting workers forward for roles (with your knowledge), with service providers who host our website and systems under strict confidentiality, and with regulators or authorities where the law requires it.

How long we keep it

Enquiry details are kept for as long as needed to handle your enquiry and for a reasonable period afterwards. Worker records, including CVs and compliance documents, are kept for the duration of our working relationship and for the periods required by employment and tax law. When data is no longer needed, it is securely deleted.

Your rights

Under UK GDPR you have the right to:

  • Ask for a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
  • Ask us to correct or delete your data.
  • Object to or restrict how we use it.
  • Withdraw consent at any time, where we rely on consent.

To exercise any of these rights, email hello@shiftly.co.uk. If you are not happy with how we handle your data, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.
