Privacy Policy
Last updated: 24 September 2026
Forman IT respects your privacy and is committed to protecting personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use and protect information through our website and our social media publishing integrations, including TikTok.
Who we are
Forman IT is an IT recruitment business based in the United Kingdom. For questions about this Privacy Policy or how we handle personal information, you can contact us using the contact details provided on our website.
Information we may collect
When you visit our website or interact with our services, we may receive information that you provide directly to us, such as your name, email address, telephone number or information submitted in connection with recruitment services. Our website and service providers may also collect limited technical information such as browser type, device information, IP address and website usage data.
Social media integrations
Forman IT uses authorised integrations with third-party social media platforms, including TikTok, to manage and publish content to Forman IT-controlled social media accounts. When a TikTok account is connected to our publishing system, TikTok may provide information necessary to authenticate the account and enable authorised features. This may include basic account information, account identifiers and authorisation tokens. Our integration may request permissions including basic user information and permission to upload or publish video content. These permissions are used only to operate the Forman IT social media publishing workflow. We do not use the TikTok integration to access private messages, contacts or unrelated personal information.
How we use information
We may use information to provide and manage our recruitment services, respond to enquiries, operate and improve our website, maintain security, and operate authorised social media publishing integrations. Information obtained through TikTok is used only for functionality authorised by the account holder, including authenticating the connected account and uploading or publishing approved content.
Sharing of information
We do not sell personal information. Information may be processed by service providers that help us operate our website, recruitment services and social media publishing systems. Information may also be shared where required by law or where necessary to protect our legal rights. Our use of third-party platforms is also subject to the privacy policies and terms of those providers.
Data security and retention
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect information against unauthorised access, loss or misuse. We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, or where required by law. Authorisation credentials and tokens used by social media integrations are retained only as necessary to maintain the authorised connection and may be revoked when the integration is disconnected.
Your rights
Depending on applicable data protection law, you may have rights relating to your personal information, including rights to access, correct, erase or restrict the processing of your information. You may also disconnect or revoke access granted to third-party social media integrations through the relevant platform.
Third-party services
Our website and systems may use third-party services, including social media platforms and technology providers. Their processing of information is governed by their own privacy policies and terms.
Changes to this Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any updated version will be published on this page with a revised “Last updated” date.
