In accordance with applicable laws, Husky may use automated decision‑making tools or technologies based on artificial intelligence (AI Tools) as part of the recruitment process:

• The AI Tools may assist with tasks such as initial application screening, skills‑matching, or identifying candidates whose profiles align with job‑related requirements. AI tools help for triage large application volumes by highlighting potential matches to the role criteria (e.g., skills/experience alignment). Scores can also be refreshed as your application progresses).
• Where AI Tools are used, they may influence the order in which applications are reviewed or which candidates are prioritized for further assessment. However, AI Tools do not determine outcomes independently and are not used to make decisions without meaningful human involvement. All applications are subject to human review, and the reviewer retains full discretion to disregard or override any score or recommendation generated by such tools. Husky conducts regular testing to identify potential bias or errors in the operation of AI Tools and reserve the right to suspend or discontinue use of any tool where material issues are identified.
• Under certain circumstances and in compliance with applicable laws, candidates may retain all rights provided under applicable privacy laws, including the right to request human intervention, express their views, and contest decisions made with the assistance of automated systems (further information under “your rights”

What data is used and information about the decisions made by the AI Tools

The AI Tools compare the stated job requirements against information you provide, including your CV or résumé, work history, skills, and educational background, together with any other information submitted as part of your application. We do not instruct the AI Tools to process special category data as defined under applicable privacy laws, such as but not limited to data related o racial or ethnic origin, health data, political opinions etc..

The AI Tools use generative and adaptive techniques to assess textual and structured information in your application against stated job criteria and outputs four sub‑ratings (e.g., skills, experience, education, profile) and an overall match indicator. Scores are shown on a 0–5 scale and may be accompanied by a brief, model‑generated summary of the factors that influenced each score. Configuration determines when scores are calculated (e.g., on application or at a defined stage).

Under certain circumstances and in accordance with applicable laws, you may have the following rights :

• Right of access – you may have the right to request a copy of the Personal Data we have on you and to request supporting information explaining how the Personal Data is used.
• Right of rectification – you may have the right to request that we correct inaccurate Personal Data about you.
• Right of erasure – you may have the right to request that we erase all Personal Data about you (please note that we may be able to reject or restrict the request in some circumstances, depending on the information we hold and our lawful reason to keep it).
• Right to restrict processing – in some situations, you may have the right to request that we do not use the Personal Data you have provided (e.g. if you believe it to be inaccurate).
• Right to object – you may have the right to object to certain processing of your Personal Data (unless we have overriding compelling grounds to continue processing).
