Look, we get it - nobody actually reads these things. But we've tried to make ours straightforward because your trust matters to us.

Here's the deal: we're in the business of connecting talented leaders with organizations that need them. That means we handle sensitive info - your career history, salary expectations, professional aspirations. We don't take that lightly.
This privacy policy isn't just legal boilerplate (though yeah, our lawyers did review it). It's our commitment to you about how we handle your data. We've been doing executive recruitment since 2008, and we've learned that discretion isn't just nice to have - it's everything.
Whether you're a candidate exploring opportunities or a company looking for leadership talent, you're trusting us with confidential stuff. This document explains exactly what we do with that trust.
Let's break down what we actually gather and why we need it:
When you work with us as a candidate, we collect:
We only collect what's actually relevant to finding you the right role. We're not gonna ask for your blood type or favorite pizza topping.
From our client organizations, we gather:
This helps us find candidates who'll actually thrive in your specific context, not just check boxes on a job spec.
When you visit our site, we automatically collect some tech stuff:
This helps us make the site better and understand what content is actually useful to folks.
We're not selling your data or using it for random marketing campaigns. Here's what we do with it:
We use your info to find the right fit between candidates and roles. That's literally our job. We analyze skills, experience, and cultural fit to make solid introductions.
When you participate in our leadership development programs, we use assessment data to create personalized development plans and track progress over time.
We'll reach out about relevant opportunities, schedule interviews, share market insights, and keep you updated on your search status. No spam, just useful stuff.
Sometimes we gotta keep records for legal reasons - employment verification, contract fulfillment, compliance with Canadian privacy laws (PIPEDA and all that).
We will NOT use your info for anything you haven't agreed to. If we want to use it in a new way, we'll ask first. That's just basic respect.
All your data is stored on secure servers located in Canada. We don't transfer candidate information outside the country unless you're specifically applying for international roles - and even then, we'll tell you first.
How long we keep your info depends on our relationship:
We keep your profile active as long as you're looking. Once you land somewhere or ask us to pause, we'll archive it but keep it for future opportunities (unless you tell us otherwise).
After we place you, we keep your info for 3 years minimum (for warranty purposes and potential future searches). We check in periodically to see how things are going.
If we haven't heard from you in 5 years and you haven't responded to our check-ins, we'll archive your profile. We'll reach out before doing this though.
We keep client engagement records for 7 years (Canadian tax law requires this). After that, we securely destroy everything except basic engagement history.
Want us to delete your data sooner? Just ask. We'll honor your request unless we have a legal obligation to keep certain records (like tax documents or contract details).
Under Canadian privacy law (PIPEDA), you've got real rights over your data. Here's what you can do:
You can request a copy of everything we have on you. We'll provide it in a readable format within 30 days. No charge for the first request.
If something in your profile is wrong or outdated, tell us and we'll fix it ASAP. Your resume changed? Career goals shifted? Just let us know.
You can ask us to delete your info anytime. We'll do it within 30 days, except for stuff we legally have to keep (like tax records if we paid you).
