The following is a summary of the types of personal information we collect, and the purposes for which that information is used.

​

Website Users

SRCT collects your name, address, e-mail address, telephone number and any other personally-identifiable information which you voluntarily provide when you submit an inquiry through the “Contact Us” tool. SRCT also collects other background information about you in connection with career-related inquiries that you submit through its website.

SRCT may also automatically collect personal information (through the use of cookies or similar technologies, including your IP address, device identifier, browsing patterns on its websites, click stream data, and HTP protocol elements) to ensure the effective operation of the website or in order to align the presentation of our Services more closely to your requirements. This tracking information is stored in an anonymous, aggregated and non-personal format, and is also used to understand and analyze trends, to administer the websites, and to learn about user behavior on the websites.

In certain instances, SRCT may use IP addresses to help identify you when SRCT feels, in its sole discretion, that it is necessary to enforce compliance with this Privacy Policy, to protect its services, websites, systems, information, employees, business partners, subsidiaries, affiliates, users, customers or others, or when required by law or for law enforcement purposes.

​

SRCT’s Former, Current and Prospective Clients

If you submit an enquiry to SRCT about our Services (either over the website, or by emailing, telephoning or meeting with one of our colleagues), then we will process information such as your name, job title and contact information in order to respond to your enquiry.

If you attend an SRCT event or webinar, or if you associate with an SRCT colleague at, for example, an industry event or conference, then SRCT may collect basic personal information, such as contact details, which you voluntarily provide (for example, by filling in a form or handing over a business card) in order to facilitate your participation in the event, and for the management of our relationship with you as an actual or prospective client.

​

If you or the organization you are associated with becomes an SRCT client, then we may process your personal information in order to:

• carry out "Know Your Client" checks and screening prior to starting a new engagement (as well as basic contact information, this may mean processing compliance related information such as proof of your identity, information about your professional background, history of directorships and, in some circumstance, details of any criminal convictions or adverse media coverage);

• carry out client communication, service, billing and administration;

• deal with client complaints; and

• administer claims.

​

Taking account of applicable marketing laws, we also process personal information about our clients (former, current and prospective) in order to:

• send our clients newsletters, know-how, promotional material and other marketing communications;

• invite our clients to events (and arrange and administer those events).

​

Other Uses

If you apply for a position with SRCT, we will need to collect personal information in order to consider your application, and during any interview and assessment phase.

If we hire you as a vendor, supplier or contractor, we will need to collect personal information in order to complete transactions and, where applicable, complete appropriate screening activities.

SRCT uses personal information to deliver its Services to clients. For its own purposes, it also uses personal information to analyze and improve how it delivers those services, to contact representatives of its clients or prospective clients and to market to them, and to administer recruitment and events.

Finally, if you contact us for any other reason, we will collect basic contact details, as well as any other personal information relevant to the reason for your enquiry, in order to resolve that enquiry.
