NextStep Privacy & Data Protection Notice

Notice version DPDP-2026-08-29-v2-AI · Privacy contact: sugandha@nextstephr.in

English · हिन्दी

NextStep HR Consulting & IT Services is the Data Fiduciary for personal data collected through nextstephr.in. The site collects only information needed for enquiries, candidate recruitment services, recruiter mandates, account/security functions, website operation and compliance. The site uses first-party, session-based/cookieless analytics rather than a long-lived cross-visit tracking identifier. It does not sell personal data.

When an unregistered recruiter or business visitor voluntarily submits contact details through “Discuss your mandate” or “Start a conversation”, NextStep uses those details for the requested purpose of responding to that enquiry. The form does not require a consent checkbox for that limited response purpose; this Privacy Notice remains available directly below the form. The submitted contact details must not be repurposed for unrelated marketing without an appropriate legal basis.

For registered candidate and recruiter portal processing, detailed itemised notices are presented at registration and are versioned in NextStep's consent ledger. Registration consent is not repeatedly requested on ordinary logins or uploads. A new consent is requested only when NextStep publishes a notice revision classified as a material change to the operative processing. Editorial or clarifying notice revisions do not trigger re-consent. Data subjects can access, correct, download, withdraw consent, request erasure, raise grievances and nominate another individual. Contact the Privacy Contact shown on this page for assistance.
