​

When you visit our website, we may automatically collect certain technical information, including:

• IP address

• browser type and version

• operating system and device type

• information about your visit, such as pages viewed, navigation paths, and time spent on the site

This information does not normally identify you personally and is used to help us understand how our website is used. Further details are set out in our Cookie Policy.

 

How we use your personal data

​

We use personal data for the following purposes:

• to respond to enquiries and communicate with you

• to provide information about our services

• to manage client, supplier, and professional relationships

• to carry out recruitment and hiring activities

• to publish and promote business content via platforms such as LinkedIn

• to operate, maintain and improve our website

• to comply with legal or regulatory obligations

We do not sell personal data to third parties.

 

Lawful basis for processing

​

We process personal data only where we have a lawful basis to do so under UK GDPR. This will typically include one or more of the following:

 

Performance of a contract

​

Where processing is necessary to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract, or to perform a contract with you (for example, providing consulting services or progressing a recruitment process).

 

Legitimate interests

​

Where processing is necessary for our legitimate business interests, including:

• responding to business or recruitment enquiries

• contacting professional contacts via channels such as email or LinkedIn

• developing, marketing and promoting our services

• improving our website and communications

We ensure that our legitimate interests do not override your fundamental rights and freedoms.

 

Consent

​

Where required, we will obtain your consent before processing your personal data, for example where you explicitly opt in to receive certain communications. You may withdraw consent at any time.

 

Direct marketing and professional outreach

​

We do not operate a mailing list or newsletter.

We may contact individuals directly (for example by email or LinkedIn) where there is a relevant professional or business context. You can opt out of such communications at any time by informing us or using the relevant platform controls.

 

Sharing your personal data

​

We may share personal data with trusted third parties where necessary, including:

• IT, hosting and website service providers

• recruitment support providers (where applicable)

• analytics providers

• professional advisers (such as legal or accounting advisers)

We may also disclose personal data where required by law, regulation, or in connection with a business reorganisation, merger, or sale.

All third parties are required to process personal data securely and in accordance with applicable data protection laws.

 

International transfers

​

MC Squared is based in the United Kingdom but works with clients, candidates and professional contacts internationally.

Where personal data is transferred outside the UK or the European Economic Area (EEA), we take appropriate safeguards to ensure that it is protected in accordance with applicable data protection laws, such as the use of standard contractual clauses or equivalent protections.

 

Data security

​

We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, loss, misuse or disclosure.

While we take reasonable steps to protect personal data, transmission of information over the internet is not completely secure. Any transmission is at your own risk.

 

Data retention

​

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including for legal, regulatory, and legitimate business purposes.

Recruitment data will typically be retained for a limited period following the conclusion of a recruitment process, unless we are required or permitted to retain it for longer.

When personal data is no longer required, it is securely deleted or anonymised.

 

Your rights

​

Under UK GDPR, you have the right to:

• be informed about how your personal data is used

• access the personal data we hold about you

• request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data

• request deletion of your personal data

• restrict or object to processing

• withdraw consent (where processing is based on consent)

• request data portability, where applicable

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at info@mcsquaredpartners.com

We will respond within the timeframes required by law.

​

Our website may contain links to third-party websites or platforms (including social media platforms such as LinkedIn). We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those websites. Please review the relevant privacy policies before submitting personal data to them.
