Privacy Policy

Information Collected Automatically

Crucial Talent may directly collect analytics data, or use trusted third-party analytics tools (such as Google Analytics), to measure traffic and usage trends on our website. These tools collect information sent by your browser or mobile device — such as the pages you visit and your general usage patterns — to help us improve site performance and user experience.

This data is collected in aggregate form only and cannot reasonably be used to identify you personally. No Personally Identifiable Information (PII) is automatically collected. We only collect PII when you voluntarily opt in by submitting information via our online forms, appointment widgets, or surveys.

Information You Provide to Us

If you apply for a role, join our talent pool, or contact us through our website, we may collect and store the following information:

• Your name

• Email address

• Telephone number

• CV (PDF format)

• Covering letter

• Any other information you voluntarily submit

This information is transmitted securely via an encrypted email service and is not stored on our website. Instead, it is accessed and stored on Crucial Talent’s secure internal workstations, protected by enterprise-grade security protocols.

We collect this information solely for recruitment purposes — to match your profile with opportunities, provide personalised career support, and manage our client relationships. Your information will never be shared with third parties without your express permission.

Fraudulent or Unlawful Use

If information you provide is found to be associated with fraudulent activity — whether intentional or accidental — or if we have reasonable grounds to suspect misuse, we reserve the right to report this data to the appropriate legal authorities, including but not limited to law enforcement agencies, investigators, courts, or legal professionals, in accordance with applicable laws.

Information Usage, Storage, and Confidentiality

Crucial Talent treats all personal data with the strictest confidentiality. We do not rent, sell, share, or disseminate any personal information you provide unless required by law or with your explicit consent.

We only use your information to deliver services related to recruitment and career support. You have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your data at any time in accordance with data protection regulations, including the UK GDPR and EU GDPR.

Use of Testimonials and Correspondence

Any stories, messages, or testimonials shared with us — such as thank-you notes or feedback — may be used for promotional purposes only in a non-identifying form. We will never publish photos, names, or contact details without your express advance consent.

You may request, in writing, that no part of your correspondence be used for promotional purposes. We will always respect your privacy preferences.
