    HRcheck terms of service (e-Bulk Electronic Applications)
    Our client organisations must adhere to the following conditions when applying for, receiving, holding and disposing of Criminal Disclosures via the e-Bulk Online application channel or Paper Route.

    1. The Client must nominate a designated individual(s) who will act as the clients contact point for all DBS matters and receive Disclosure information.

    2. The client organisation will provide details of the person(s) who will verify the identity of the applicant, and that identity validation will be done in accordance with DBS guidelines using only original documents, and ensure that all applicant details are checked in the same manner.

    3. The client organisation must inform HRcheck immediately in writing should the person(s) checking the identity of the applicants change.

    4. The client organisation will observe and fully adhere to the DBS (CRB) code of practice.

    5. Clients using the e-Bulk system will ensure that the “Statement of Fair Processing” is made available to all applicants upon request.

    6. The client organisation is likely and will remain likely to genuinely ask an exempted question.

    7. The client organisation will make all disclosure applicants aware of the Code of Practice when recruiting and will make a copy available to all disclosure applicants upon request.

    8. The client organisation has a satisfactory written policy on the recruitment of ex offenders and issues a copy of the policy to all disclosure applicants at the start of the recruitment process.

    9. The client organisation is aware that a statement must be included on its application forms or accompanying documentation, that a disclosure will be requested in the event of an applicant being offered a position.

    10. The client organisation is aware that it must include a statement on its application forms, or accompanying documentation, that a criminal record will not necessarily be a bar to obtaining a position.

    11. The client organisation must provide a statement in all employment advertisements that Disclosure will be required in the event that a post is offered.

    12. The client organisation has a written policy on the secure storage, handling, retention and disposal of disclosure information.

    13. The client organisation will not retain disclosures or a record of the information contained within them for longer than is required for the particular purpose. This should be no longer than 6 months after the date on which the recruitment or other relevant decisions have been taken, or after the date on which any dispute about the accuracy of the disclosure information has been resolved. The period should only be exceeded in very exceptional circumstances, which justify retention for a longer period.
