Website User

To ensure the best user experience and to understand how we can add value to our website for our visitors, we track certain activities. For more details on this please visit our cookie policy.

SRI Executive uses Invenias as our internal database. Invenias is committed to protecting the data it holds and does so by employing reasonable and appropriate security measures to protect against the loss, misuse, and alteration of the personal information it processes. When the Service is accessed using Microsoft Internet Explorer versions 5.0 or higher, Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology protects information using both server authentication and data encryption to help ensure that personal information is safe, and secure while in transit.

Invenias also implements an advanced security method based on dynamic data and encoded session identifications and hosts data in a secure server environment that uses a firewall and other advanced technology to protect against interference or access from outside intruders.

Finally, Invenias provides individual usernames and passwords that must be entered each time an SRI Executive member logs on. These safeguards help protect against unauthorised access, maintain data accuracy, and provide for the appropriate use of personal information. Nevertheless, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is one hundred percent (100%) secure. The service is cloud-based and the data is currently held in a data centre in the UK.

SRI Executive also uses HubSpot for its content management system (CMS). We gather information through forms and cookies that are stored and processed on HubSpot. SRI Executive complies with regulations and laws that require providing notice, disclosure, and/or obtaining consent prior to collecting information and data by HubSpot. We collect personal data from you when you submit web forms or interact with our website, for example subscribing to a blog or signing up for a webinar. We may ask for your email address, first and last name, job title, and other similar business information.

SRI Executive uses a number of safeguards to ensure your data is secure. We use advanced technology to secure our network and all our devices including all mobile devices and laptops/desktops. This software is audited and regularly updated. Coupled with this we have moved towards a paperless office for the environment and for our client and candidate data.

Below is a detailed list of how your data will be used by SRI Executive:

  • We will use the information we have to match your skills against an open position.
  • We will contact you via phone, email or social media to inform you about opportunities you might be interested in.
  • We will submit your profile to our clients for opportunities you have reviewed and agreed to be submitted for.
  • We will not send your CV anywhere without your consent.
  • We will not submit CVs to our clients without being instructed by you to do so.
  • We will contact your referees to perform background checks. You will be informed about this prior to doing so.
  • We will contact you via email and social media for marketing purposes such as informing you about open roles, networking events, thought leadership material and other market information. You may opt out of receiving marketing information at any time.
  • We will contact you occasionally to obtain updates on your career and job preference.
  • We will contact you to offer our services to you or your company.
  • We will ask for your help in obtaining market information and trends via email, social media channels, phone or various surveys.
  • We will invite you to participate in any of our organised events such as webinars on market trends.
  • We will analyse the data we have on you to compile various reports around salaries, skills availability, skills levels and other recruitment related reports.
  • We will carry out our obligations arising from any contracts entered between us.
  • We will facilitate our payroll and invoicing processes.
  • We will carry out our obligations arising from any contracts entered between SRI Executive and third parties in relation to your appointment to a client organisation.
  • We will verify any details, you have provided, using third-party resources (such as psychometric evaluations or skills tests), or to request information (such as references, qualifications and potentially any criminal convictions, to the extent that this is appropriate and in accordance with local laws).

SRI Executive will hold data for as long as it is accurate and relevant to the Executive Search and Consultancy services we offer. We will delete your personal data from our systems if we have not had any meaningful contact with you (or, where appropriate, the company you are working for or with) for 6 (six) years (or for longer periods where laws or relevant regulators require us to preserve your data). After this period, it is likely your data will no longer be relevant for the purposes for which it was collected.

When we refer to “meaningful contact”, we mean, for example, communication between us (either verbal or written), or where you actively engage with our online content.

If you are a candidate, we will consider there to be meaningful contact with you if you submit your updated CV through our website or contact us with queries about opportunities we have advertised. We will also consider it meaningful contact if you communicate with us about potential roles, either by verbal or written communication or click through from any of our marketing communications.

SRI Executive uses legitimate interest as a lawful basis for processing your data as it is impossible to conduct our business otherwise. By keeping in touch and building up our database we aim to grow our business and revenue. By using legitimate interest, we commit to protecting your interest, being transparent, fair and ensuring your data is protected, and the processing of your data will not cause you harm in any way.

In some circumstances, we rely on consent for processing your data. These include representing you in front of a client or contacting you for marketing purposes. Consent can be given via phone, face to face or in writing.

As we are a global Executive Search and Consultancy practice and not limited to the European Economic Area (EEA), we may share your data with clients outside the EU, to find the best fit in terms of your job search for candidates or find the best resource for your requirements-for clients.  When doing so we will inform you and ensure we have your permission to do so, as well as ensuring the same standard of data protection is applied outside of the EEA to these transfers and the use of the information, to ensure your rights are protected.

If you are not happy with our policy or believe your data is processed for reasons outside of this policy, please contact us using the contact details below and we will deal with your request without delay and within a maximum of 30 days.

  • Access request – you can request a copy of the data we hold on you.

  • Data Portability – right of data portability: If you wish, you have the right to transfer your personal data between data controllers. In effect, this means that you can transfer the details SRI Executive holds on you to another similar company. To allow you to do so, we will provide you with your data in a commonly used machine-readable format that is password-protected so that you can transfer the data to another online platform. Alternatively, we may directly transfer the data for you.
