This Privacy Policy (together with any other documents referred to herein) sets out the basis on which Easy Mobile Logistics Hong Kong Limited (“Lalamove”, “we” or “us”) collects and processes your personal data in connection with our recruitment processes. Please read the following carefully to understand our views and practices regarding your personal data and how we will treat it.
The terms “personal data”, “legal basis”, “processing”, and “data controller” used in this Privacy Policy are consistent with their meanings under the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”). While our recruitment activities do not fall within the mandatory territorial scope of the GDPR, we strive to apply equivalent data protection principles as a matter of good practice and transparency.
We use our own platform (or a third-party recruitment platform), to assist us with our recruitment process. We also use appropriate service providers to process personal information as data processors on our behalf. Any such processor is only entitled to process your personal data in accordance with our instructions.
Where you apply for a job opening posted by us, these Privacy Policy provisions will apply to our processing of your personal information in addition to our other Privacy Policy which has been provided to you separately or is available on our Website.
Where you apply for a job opening via the application function on a job site or similar online service provider (“Partner”), you should note that the relevant Partner may solely retain your personal data in respect of the progress of your application. Any use by the Partner of your data will be in accordance with the Partner’s Privacy Policy.
A.Data Controllers
The primary applicable Data Controller will be Lalamove that is recruiting for the role.
Easy Mobile Logistics Hong Kong Limited

B.Your Personal Information
We collect and process some or all of the following types of information from you:
(a) Information provided during the application process (e.g. online portals, interviews).
- This information may include: your name, age, date of birth, nationality, ID number, ID issuance authority, address, gender, marital status, personal email address and phone number, photograph, salary information or expected salary, resume and CV and any information referred to thereof, including your education information (eg. school name and location, major, degree), working experience, title, professional qualifications, language skills, your reasons for applying to Lalamove.
(b) Communications and hiring process records.
(c) IP address (if applicable).
C. Special Categories of Personal Data and criminal records
Certain types of Personal Data are subject to specific protection under the GDPR. This includes data referred to as “Special Categories of Personal Data” (such as health, religion, or biometric data) as defined in Article 9, and “Criminal-related Data” (such as information about criminal convictions or offences) as governed by Article 10.
We explicitly do NOT process any of the above types of data during the recruitment phase. However, for certain positions, particularly those involving sensitive responsibilities or security clearance, it may be necessary to process some of these categories of data during the onboarding phase, based on legal requirements or internal security policies. In such cases, you will be informed separately and, where required, your explicit consent will be obtained.
D. Information from Other Sources
We may link data you provide with publicly available information (e.g., LinkedIn). We may also receive data from third-party recruiters, referral systems, or public databases.
E. Lawful Basis and Purpose of Processing
We rely primarily on legitimate interest to evaluate candidates and recruit staff. In some instances, consent may be requested.
Uses include:
- Evaluating applications
- Communicating during the process
- Offering roles
If you are located in the European Union, we also process your personal data based on your explicit consent under Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR.
By voluntarily submitting your application to us, you consent to the processing of your personal data for recruitment purposes. You may withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us at: hr.dataprivacy@lalamove.com.
F. International Transfer Disclaimer
As we are based in Hong Kong, your data will be processed and stored outside the European Economic Area. Therefore, our processing activities are generally outside the territorial scope of the GDPR. By submitting your application, you consent to the transfer of your personal data to Hong Kong for the purposes of evaluating your application. We take appropriate measures to ensure your data is handled securely.
Please note that our recruitments do NOT constitute an intentional offering of goods or services to individuals in the EU, nor do they involve the monitoring of data subjects’ behavior within the meaning of Article 3(2) of the GDPR.
Nonetheless, we strive to handle your data in a transparent and secure manner, consistent with internationally recognized data protection principles.
G. Automated Decision Making / Profiling
We do not make hiring decisions based on automation.
H. Aggregate Data
Anonymized or aggregated data may be used for statistical analysis, system improvement, or lawful business purposes.

J. Data Security and Storage
We implement security measures to prevent unauthorized access, use, or loss of personal data. Data may be stored in systems located in Hong Kong.
K. Data Retention
If your application is successful (and we give our best wishes), your data will be transferred to your personnel file and retained in accordance with statutory retention requirements applicable to employment relationships. In this case, your data may be stored for several years as required for contractual and legal purposes.
If your application is unfortunately not successful, your personal data (e.g., CVs, interview notes) will be retained for a period of up to six months after the conclusion of the recruitment process. This retention period is based on our legitimate interest in defending against potential legal claims.
With your explicit consent, we may retain your application data for a longer period of 2 years in order to contact you about future job opportunities. You may withdraw your consent at any time. We will periodically review whether continued retention of your data is necessary.

(a) Access your personal data
(b) Request corrections or deletions
(c) Object to or restrict processing
(d) Request data portability
(e) Withdraw consent where applicable
(f) File complaints with relevant authorities
