At Burnt Oak Partners we are dedicated to safeguarding and preserving your privacy when visiting our site or communicating electronically with us.

This Privacy Policy, together with our terms of use, explains what happens to any personal data that you provide to us, or that we collect from you when you are on this site.

We do update this Policy from time to time so please do return and review this Policy regularly.

Information We Collect

We may collect and process the following data about you:

Details of your visits to our website and the resources that you access, including, but not limited to, traffic data, location data, weblogs and other communication data.

Information provided to us when you communicate with us for any reason.

For our executive search practice: Information provided to us in the form of a CV, bio or cover letter or similar, is collected and processed and may be augmented by publicly available information about you as found on platforms such as but not limited to LinkedIn.com. If we request you to send us information containing personal data, we will ask your explicit consent to store, use and share this information with potential employers and recruiters.

Use of Cookies

This website uses Microsoft Clarity, a third-party analytics tool, to help us understand how visitors use this website. Clarity only runs, and only sets cookies, if you accept this via the cookie banner shown on your first visit. If you decline, no analytics cookies are set.

All fonts and icons used on this website are hosted on our own servers. Earlier versions of this website loaded these from third-party services (Google Fonts and a CDN provider), which would have disclosed your IP address to those providers. If you decline analytics cookies, no data is sent to Microsoft or any other third party simply by visiting this website.

Links to third-party websites, such as LinkedIn, are clearly marked and only lead to those sites if you actively click them. Visiting those websites is subject to their own cookie and privacy practices, not ours.

We ask for your consent via a cookie banner before any non-essential cookies, such as those used by Microsoft Clarity, are set. You can change your choice at any time via the "Cookie Settings" link in the footer.

Use of Your Information

The information that we collect and store relating to you is primarily used to enable us to provide our services to you. In addition, we may use the information for the following purposes:

To provide you with information requested from us, relating to our products or services. To provide information on other products which we feel may be of interest to you, where you have consented to receive such information.

To meet our contractual commitments to you.

To notify you about any changes to our website, such as improvements or service/product changes, that may affect our service.

To bring you into contact with potential employer(s) or recruiter(s) as is relevant to our executive search practice.

To keep your information on file for consideration of future opportunities at employer(s) or recruiter(s), which may occur years after first contact with us; unless you explicitly request us not to do so and delete your information.

If you are an existing customer, we may contact you with information about goods and services similar to those which were the subject of a previous sale to you.

Further, we may use your data, or permit selected third parties to use your data, so that you can be provided with information about unrelated goods and services which we consider may be of interest to you. We or they may contact you about these goods and services by any of the methods that you consented at the time your information was collected.

If you are a new customer, we will only contact you or allow third parties to contact you only when you have provided consent and only by those means you provided consent for.

If you do not want us to use your data for our or third parties you will have the opportunity to withhold your consent to this when you provide your details to us on the form on which we collect your data.

Storing Your Personal Data

We may transfer data that we collect from you to locations outside of the European Economic Area for processing and storing. Also, it may be processed by staff operating outside the European Economic Area who work for us or for one of our suppliers. By submitting your personal data, you agree to this transfer, storing or processing. We will take all reasonable steps to make sure that your data is treated securely and in agreement with this Privacy Policy.

Data that is provided to us is stored on our secure servers.

The transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure and therefore we cannot guarantee the security of data sent to us electronically and transmission of such data is therefore entirely at your own risk.

Disclosing Your Information

Where applicable, we may disclose your personal information to any member of our group. This includes, where applicable, our subsidiaries, our holding company and its other subsidiaries (if any).

We may also disclose your personal information to third parties: where we sell any or all of our business and/or our assets to a third party; where we are legally required to disclose your information; to assist fraud protection and minimise credit risk.

Third Party Links

You might find links to third party websites on our website. These websites should have their own privacy policies which you should check. We do not accept any responsibility or liability for their policies whatsoever as we have no control over them.

Access To Information

The European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) gives you the right to access the information that we hold about you. Please contact us if you wish to receive details or want us to delete your personal data.
