Executive Advantage Group, Inc. is committed to your privacy.
We are 100% committed to your privacy. Executive Advantage Group, Inc. has implemented this Privacy Policy to explain how we collect, use, and disclose/transfer individually identifiable information ("Personal Information") that we obtain through our Website, email, and direct conversations with individuals and how we protect the privacy of your personal data. We are the sole owner of all information collected via this website. We have implemented this data privacy policy to create a consistent and uniform approach to processing Personal Information (i.e., any information relating to an identified or identifiable individual ("data subject")) we have on individuals for executive search and assessment and related purposes. Please read this information carefully. By using this Website, and/or submitting any Personal Information regardless of how transmitted or communicated (e.g., via this Website, email, verbally, or in writing), you expressly consent to the terms in this Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy establishes data protection rules that apply to all our offices, subject to applicable local laws, including but not limited to data protection laws. It is the minimum set of rules an office is required to follow.
Collection of Personal Information
As an executive search solutions firm, Executive Advantage Group collects various categories of personal data via this Website, electronically transmitted/emailed forms, verbally and/or written correspondence.
If you interact with us verbally, in writing or via email, or submit an inquiry or question via an online form or email, we may collect your name, email address, or other Personal Information contained in that correspondence. If you are a potential candidate we may collect your name and contact details, information about your employment objectives, past and current employment and professional experience, educational background, language skills, and other data that you provide via an online or electronically transmitted/emailed form, or a resume or CV. If you are a Client or potential Client, we may collect your name, contact details, title or position, products or services requested, or other information that you provide verbally or via online or electronically transmitted/emailed forms, and/or written or email correspondence. The information we collect may also include interview notes, comments from third parties and a record of our contacts with individuals. Our records may originate from information collected directly from the data subject, publicly available sources, as well as information gained from third-party sources. We do not wish to collect any "sensitive" Personal Information, such as racial or ethnic origin, age, political, religious, or philosophical beliefs, sexual life, social security or other government identification numbers, trade union membership, health or medical conditions, or criminal history unless legally required for recruiting purposes. We suggest that you do not provide sensitive information of this nature. If you do wish to provide sensitive information for any reason, Executive Advantage Group accepts your explicit consent to use that information in the ways described in this Privacy Policy or as described at the point where you choose to disclose.
We make every effort to ensure that any information held is accurate and kept as up-to-date as possible. By choosing to submit your personal information via this website, email, electronically transmitted/emailed forms, verbally and/or written correspondence, you indicate your willingness to disclose this information to Executive Advantage Group and to be considered, when appropriate, for one of Executive Advantage Group’s client or third-party search partner projects. If you do not wish to disclose your personal information, Executive Advantage Group will be unable to assist you since employment, educational and other personal information is necessary in order to assess your employment opportunities. To the extent permitted under applicable law, by providing any information to us, the data subject will be deemed to have given explicit consent for us to hold and use such information.
