*We may need to process this data for a longer period of time when required by law, to settle a dispute or to ensure the security of our systems.
Stuart does not sell your personal data to third parties.
How do we ensure the security of your data?
We put in place physical, electronic and organisational procedures to protect and secure all personal data we collect. This includes in particular:
- Security measures to prevent the loss of or unauthorised access to your data;
- Limiting access to your data to those who really need such access;
- The commitment that our staff, our service providers and their staff are aware of their responsibilities and have signed appropriate contractual clauses;
- Putting in place procedures to deal with potential breaches of information security, including procedures for notifying you of such breaches where we are required to do so;
If you feel that your privacy has been violated, please contact us immediately at dpo@stuart.com.
Where do we store your data?
Most of the personal data we collect is processed in our offices in Paris (France), Barcelona (Spain), London (UK), Warsaw (Poland) and Milan (Italy), and by some of our service providers.
We use third party providers to help us run our business, including hosting our application, communicating with you and processing payments.
In this context, it is sometimes necessary to share your data with these service providers to enable the proper functioning of the services. We will only share your data where strictly necessary and in accordance with the safeguards detailed in this privacy policy.
Where personal data is transferred to a third party outside the European Economic Area (EEA), we take the necessary steps to ensure that your privacy rights continue to be protected by using the safeguards provided for in the GDPR and in accordance with the recommendations of the supervisory authorities, reinforced by contractual and technical measures.
Where required by law, we share personal data with government authorities, including tax authorities and the police.
What are your rights?
Please note that, in accordance with the provisions of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), some of these rights apply only in limited circumstances, which we will specify to you as appropriate.
Access
You have the right to access the information we hold about you.
This includes the right to request additional information from us regarding:
- The categories of data we process;
- The purposes of data processing ;
- Categories of third parties to whom data may be disclosed;
- The length of time the data will be retained (or the criteria used to determine this length) ;
- Your other rights regarding our use of your data.
Rectification
You have the right to request the correction of any inaccurate personal data about you.
In certain circumstances (e.g. where personal data is required in connection with a criminal investigation) we will not be able to comply with your request.
Restriction
You have the right to limit the way we use your personal data.
This right is intended to apply in limited circumstances, for example where you challenge the accuracy of your personal data. In this case, you may request that we restrict the use of your data until we can verify their accuracy.
Opposition
You have the right to object to our continued use of your data where the processing is based on our legitimate interest.
To exercise this right you will need to provide Stuart with reasons relating to your particular circumstances justifying your objection. Stuart may continue to process the data, and therefore reject your request, if there are compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests and rights, or if the data is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
Portability
You have the right to request portability of your data to another service provider where the lawful basis for processing is your consent or the performance of a contract.
We will give you a copy of your data so that you can provide it to another service. If you request us to do so and it is technically possible, we will transfer the data directly to that other service provider on your behalf. We will not do this if it would result in the disclosure of personal data relating to a third party.
Right to erasure or "right to be forgotten”
You have the right to request your right to be forgotten by Stuart.
You may ask us to delete any personal data we hold about you, to the extent that it is no longer necessary for us to retain it in connection with your use of Stuart's services or if you expressly withdraw your consent (if this is the lawful basis for processing).
This right applies unless the data needs to be retained due to legal or regulatory requirements, for safety, security and fraud prevention purposes, or due to an account issue such as an unresolved claim or dispute
Automated decision making and profiling
For the purposes of the processing operations covered in this policy, we do not make any automated decisions about you, nor do we carry out any profiling

What data do we collect and how will it be used?
When you choose to use Stuart to provide your delivery services, we need access to some of your personal data.
Integration
During your induction, we use this data to process your application, contact you, verify your identity and confirm your eligibility to work.
We keep this data even if the integration process is not completed, in order to improve our services and to prevent any further abusive or fraudulent applications.
Biometric data
As part of your application and in order to verify your identity and prevent fraud, we ask you to provide a copy of your identity papers. We also record a short video of your face. We use a specialised service provider to process your biometric data in the form of facial scans, which are then compared with your identity documents.
Deliveries
Once your application has been approved, you will be able to create an account on Stuart’s Courier Mobile App (CMA).
The CMA will be used to collect location data only when you set your status as available for deliveries. This collection of data will be used by us to assign deliveries, organize supply and demand and solve potential problems related to delivery routes. Clients and customers will also be able to follow the delivery. Lastly, we also keep a record of your deliveries, routes taken and contact with customers as part of the delivery tracking, fraud prevention and litigation management.
Your data may also be used to manage complaints from our customers or recipients of goods for our internal quality improvement process.
Throughout this processing, we collect login data in order to operate and improve our application and website. We use this data to develop statistics to improve our services.
Disabilities
Where applicable, Stuart uses information about your disabilities as required to ensure compliance with the law and make sure the appropriate adjustments are made. This helps us give you the right help and make our service better for you.
This data includes special category data including information about your health.
We only use the details you provide and make sure that this is only shared with the people who have a need to know. We don't share this data unless we are required to do so by law.
Direct Marketing
Where you have given your consent or where we are permitted to do so by law, we will contact you to let you know about Stuart’s products and services including those of our partners.
In most cases, Stuart will contact you via email or in-app notifications. You will have the option to opt-out of such communications.
Please note that Stuart may also contact you with service messages, such as to inform you of updates to our terms and conditions or to notify you of incidents. These are not considered direct marketing and we are not able to offer an opt-out for such communications.

In particular, we collect the following data: name, geographic location, age, contact details, IP address, profession, gender, employment history, employment references, salary, CV, and any other personal details that you desire to communicate.
If you choose to apply without importing your CV, you may be asked to provide your professional experience, training, or academic background, as well as your certifications and skills (among others). In general, you will not be required to provide this information in order to apply. It is therefore up to you to choose whether you wish to communicate them or not.
If you contact us, we may keep a record of that correspondence.
A record of your progress through any hiring process that We may conduct will be kept. If you are chosen at the final stage of the process, we will collect some data to draft the hiring letter and the employment contract.
When you visit Lever’s Website, some data will be collected; including, but not limited to, traffic data, location data, weblogs and other communication data, the site that referred you to Lever’s Website and the resources that you access.
Stuart does not sell your personal data to third parties.
Information we collect from other sources
Lever provides Us with the facility to link the data you provide to Us, with other publicly available information about you that you have published on the Internet – this may include sources such as LinkedIn and other social media profiles, or websites.
Lever’s technology allows Us to search various databases, some publicly available and others not, which may include your personal data (include your CV or Resumé), to find possible candidates to fill Our job openings. Where We find you in this way, We will obtain your personal data from these sources.
We may receive your personal data from a third party who recommends you as a candidate for a specific job opening or for Our business more generally.
Lawful basis
This processing is, in part necessary for the execution of pre-contractual procedures, namely analyze your application and determine whether your profile fits the job position and if we wish to enter into an employment contract with you, and partly based on the legitimate interest of Stuart, when we keep your file to contact you again in the event of another opportunity.
Purposes of processing
We use information held about you in the following ways:
- To consider your application in respect of a role for which you have applied.
- To consider your application in respect of other roles.
- To communicate with you in respect of the recruitment process.
- To enhance any information that We receive from you with information obtained from third party data providers.
- To find appropriate candidates to fill Our job openings.
- To help Our service providers (such as Lever and its processors and data providers) and Partners (such as the job sites through which you may have applied) improve their services.
Data retention
We keep your data for as long as necessary for the fulfillment of the purposes identified.
If your application is successful and you join Stuart, your data will be kept for the duration of the employment contract and during the applicable limitation period, after which they will be deleted (5 years after your departure).
If your application is not successful, your data will be kept for a period of 2 years at the end of which they will be deleted.
We may further process this data where required by law, to settle a dispute or to ensure the security of our systems.
Automated decision making/profiling
We may use Lever’s technology to select appropriate candidates for Us to consider based on criteria expressly identified by us, or typical in relation to the role for which you have applied. The process of finding suitable candidates can be automatic, however, any decision as to who We will engage to fill the job opening will be made by Our staff.
Disclosure of Your Information
As set out above, We pass your information to Our third party service providers, including Lever, who use it only in accordance with Our instructions and as otherwise required by law.
Where you have applied for a job opening through another service provider, and where you have consented to this disclosure, We will disclose to them certain personal data that We hold, including but not limited to information about your progress through Our hiring process for the applicable job opening, as well as tangible, intangible, visual, electronic, present, or future information that We hold about you, such as your name, contact details and other information involving analysis of data relating to you as an applicant for employment (collectively “Disposition Data”).The service provider shall be the data controller of this data and shall therefore be responsible for complying with all applicable law in respect of the use of that data following its transfer by Us.
How do we ensure the security of your data?
We put in place physical, electronic and organisational procedures to protect and secure all personal data we collect. This includes in particular:
- Security measures to prevent the loss of or unauthorised access to your data;
- Limiting access to your data to those who really need such access;
- The commitment that our staff, our service providers and their staff are aware of their responsibilities and have signed appropriate contractual clauses;
- Putting in place procedures to deal with potential breaches of information security, including procedures for notifying you of such breaches where we are required to do so;
If you feel that your privacy has been violated, please contact us immediately at dpo@stuart.com.
Where do we store your data?
Most of the personal data we collect is processed in our offices in Paris (France), Barcelona (Spain), London (UK), Warsaw (Poland) and Milan (Italy), and by some of our service providers.
We use third party providers to help us run our business, including hosting our application, communicating with you and processing payments.
In this context, it is sometimes necessary to share your data with these service providers to enable the proper functioning of the services. We will only share your data where strictly necessary and in accordance with the safeguards detailed in this privacy policy.
Where personal data is transferred to a third party outside the European Economic Area (EEA), we take the necessary steps to ensure that your privacy rights continue to be protected by using the safeguards provided for in the GDPR and in accordance with the recommendations of the supervisory authorities, reinforced by contractual and technical measures.
Where required by law, we share personal data with government authorities, including tax authorities and the police.
What are your rights?
Please note that, in accordance with the provisions of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), some of these rights apply only in limited circumstances, which we will specify to you as appropriate.
Access
You have the right to access the information we hold about you.
This includes the right to request additional information from us regarding:
- The categories of data we process;
- The purposes of data processing ;
- Categories of third parties to whom data may be disclosed;
- The length of time the data will be retained (or the criteria used to determine this length) ;
- Your other rights regarding our use of your data.
Rectification
You have the right to request the correction of any inaccurate personal data about you.
In certain circumstances (e.g. where personal data is required in connection with a criminal investigation) we will not be able to comply with your request.
Restriction
You have the right to limit the way we use your personal data.
This right is intended to apply in limited circumstances, for example where you challenge the accuracy of your personal data. In this case, you may request that we restrict the use of your data until we can verify their accuracy.
Opposition
You have the right to object to our continued use of your data where the processing is based on our legitimate interest.
To exercise this right you will need to provide Stuart with reasons relating to your particular circumstances justifying your objection. Stuart may continue to process the data, and therefore reject your request, if there are compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests and rights, or if the data is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
Portability
You have the right to request portability of your data to another service provider where the lawful basis for processing is your consent or the performance of a contract.
We will give you a copy of your data so that you can provide it to another service. If you request us to do so and it is technically possible, we will transfer the data directly to that other service provider on your behalf. We will not do this if it would result in the disclosure of personal data relating to a third party.
Right to erasure or "right to be forgotten”
You have the right to request your right to be forgotten by Stuart.
You may ask us to delete any personal data we hold about you, to the extent that it is no longer necessary for us to retain it in connection with your use of Stuart's services or if you expressly withdraw your consent (if this is the lawful basis for processing).
This right applies unless the data needs to be retained due to legal or regulatory requirements, for safety, security and fraud prevention purposes, or due to an account issue such as an unresolved claim or dispute
Automated decision making and profiling
For the purposes of the processing operations covered in this policy, we do not make any automated decisions about you, nor do we carry out any profiling
