1. Users

1a. Jobseekers

Registration with, and use of, Our Site for job seekers and those looking to purchase courses or receive career advice is free. When you register as a job seeker, you engage with us to provide you with online recruitment services. This service can include providing you with regular bespoke updates of relevant vacancies, relevant courses and career/sector news, which may be of interest to you. These updates will be provided as email alerts (Jobs, News and Course Alerts) which we will email to you (or send by SMS messaging where relevant and requested). Our email alerts may provide details of vacancies and courses of third-party providers. When you express an interest in any of these third-party job alerts or course alerts by clicking on the relevant link in the emails, you may be taken directly to the recruiter’s website without the need to login to your Actuarial Careers account first.

To provide you with an effective and personalised service each time you visit Our Site, we need to collect some personal information about you.
