How we look after your information.

Who we are

Baron Alliance Ltd is a technology and business operations consultancy. For the information described here, we are the controller, which means we decide how and why it is used.

For any question about this notice or your information, email baron.org.enquiries@baronalliance.uk.

What we collect

We collect only what we need for the purpose you came for.

• Enquiries: your name, organisation, email address and message when you use a contact, investor or careers form.
• Newsletter and job alerts: your email address and the topics or role filters you choose.
• Applications: your profile, CV and answers when you apply for a role. These go to our talent platform, not to this website.
• Readiness check and calculators: your answers stay in your browser and are not sent to us unless you choose to share them.
• Website use: if measurement is switched on, anonymous counts of page visits, without cookies and without identifying you.

Why we use it, and our legal basis

• To reply to your enquiry and to take steps you ask for before a contract: our legitimate interests, or steps prior to a contract.
• To send newsletters and job alerts: your consent, which you can withdraw at any time.
• To assess applications and share them with hiring teams: steps you ask us to take, and our legitimate interests. We share your profile with a hiring team only with your agreement.
• To keep the website secure and understand how it is used: our legitimate interests.
• To meet legal and regulatory duties: legal obligation.

Who we share it with

We do not sell personal information. We share it only with:

• Service providers who host this website, deliver email and run our talent platform, under contracts that protect your information.
• Hiring organisations, for a specific role, only with your agreement.
• Professional advisers and authorities, where the law requires it.

International transfers

We work with clients and candidates in several countries. Where information is transferred outside the UK or the European Economic Area, we use recognised safeguards such as adequacy decisions or standard contractual clauses.

How long we keep it

• Enquiries: up to two years after our last contact, unless they lead to a contract.
• Newsletter and alerts: until you unsubscribe.
• Candidate profiles and CVs: until you delete your profile, or two years after your last activity.
• Contract and financial records: as long as the law requires.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you can ask us to:

• Give you a copy of your information.
• Correct information that is wrong.
• Delete your information.
• Restrict or object to how we use it.
• Move your information to another provider.
• Withdraw consent at any time, without affecting what was done before.

Email baron.org.enquiries@baronalliance.uk and we will respond within one month. You can also complain to your data protection authority. In the UK, this is the Information Commissioner’s Office.

Security

Information is sent over encrypted connections. Candidate files are uploaded directly to our talent platform in encrypted parts. Access is limited to the people who need it, and we review our controls regularly.

We will update this notice when our practices change and show the date of the latest version at the top of the page.
