Privacy Policy
Version 2026-11-04
Changed 4 November 2026: screening requirements no longer reject applications automatically, and this policy now explains how applications are labelled for employers.
Your consents
We record each of these separately, as its own timestamped record, with the date, your IP address and the version of this policy shown to you at the time. Each is independent — agreeing to one never implies another — and you can change the optional ones at any time.
- I agree that Peak may process this application and share my CV, profile and answers with the employer so they can consider me for this role. (required to apply) — Required to apply. This consent covers only this employer and this role.
- Email me occasional Peak product news and tips (optional). (optional, off unless you opt in) — Separate from your application. You can unsubscribe any time.
- Send me job alerts for roles that match my profile (optional). (optional, off unless you opt in)
- Let verified employers on Peak discover my profile in candidate search (optional). (optional, off unless you opt in) — Off by default. Applying to one role does not make you searchable by every employer — turn this on only if you want to be found. Revocable any time in your profile.
How your application is assessed
When you apply, Peak automatically compares your answers to the employer’s screening questions, and the qualifications on your Peak profile, with the requirements the employer stated for the role. The employer sees your application labelled as a strong, possible or weak match, always together with the reasons — for example, that an answer didn’t match a stated requirement, or that a required qualification isn’t on your profile. The label uses nothing else: not your name, age or location, and not the contents of your CV. Peak does not use AI to read, summarise or score your application.
Nothing is rejected or hidden automatically. Every application reaches the employer, whatever its label, and a person at the employer decides what happens next.
If you think your application has been labelled wrongly, you can ask a person to review it at any time. To request human review, email privacy@peakjobs.co.uk.
Your rights
You can access, correct, export or erase your data, and withdraw any optional consent, at any time. Contact privacy@peakjobs.co.uk.
