Where it goes
Companies under one owner commonly share data with the parent and with each other. The group can hold more about you than Paradox does alone.
On Paradox's behalf
They handle your data on Paradox's instructions. If Paradox uses them, a request to Paradox should reach them.
Inferred services
Services recruiters typically use.
Get their own copy
