Every application is reviewed by a person, and all final hiring choices are made by our Managers and Talent&Culture Team.

4. Legal basis

We process personal data based on:

●

Consent: Where you opt in to communications or provide information

●

Legitimate interests: Operating our business, improving services, and responding to inquiries

●

Legal obligations: Where required by law

6. Submissions

Information you send to us is not considered confidential unless agreed in writing. Do not submit sensitive or proprietary information through this website.

7. Security

We take reasonable administrative, technical, and physical measures to protect your data. No system is fully secure. Transmission of data is at your own risk.

8. International transfers

As a global firm, your data may be processed outside your local jurisdiction, including in Canada and other regions where we operate. We take steps to ensure appropriate protection.

9. Retention

We keep your personal information only as long as needed to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected. For job applicants, we retain information for 24 months after the recruitment process ends to manage potential future opportunities and address any legal requirements.

10. Your rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:

●

Access your data

●

Correct inaccurate information

●

Request deletion

●

Object to or restrict processing

●

Withdraw consent

To exercise these rights, contact us using the details above.

11. Marketing

You may receive communications from us related to our services, insights, or events. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in our emails or by contacting us.

12. Cookies and analytics

We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how the site is used. For visitors in the European Union, EEA, United Kingdom, and Switzerland, analytics is disabled by default and a consent banner asks whether you want to opt in. For visitors elsewhere, analytics is enabled under implied consent disclosed in this policy; you can revoke that consent at any time using the Manage cookies link in the site footer. Google's Consent Mode v2 signals (ad_storage, ad_user_data, ad_personalization, analytics_storage) follow that same regional default. We do not run advertising cookies, and GA4 does not track you across other sites. Functional and security cookies remain enabled regardless of your choice because they are required for the site to operate.

●

Change your choice: Use the Manage cookies link in the site footer. The banner will reappear so you can accept or decline again.

●

Clear your choice: Clearing your browser's local storage for this site removes the saved decision; the banner will reappear on your next visit.

GA4 is provided by Google LLC and data collected through GA4 is processed according to Google's privacy practices.

13. Third-party links

Our site may link to external websites. We are not responsible for their content or data practices.

14. Children

This site is not intended for individuals under 16. We do not knowingly collect their data.

15. Updates

We may update this policy from time to time. Continued use of the site means you accept the updated version.
