If you elect to submit an employment application to us online through our site, all of the information you submit may be used for any and all purposes ordinarily associated with processing an employment application, as well as to send you details of promotional events.

If you elect to register as an OC&C Strategy Consultants alumnus on our site, your information will be placed in a file controlled by OC&C Strategy Consultants, and such information will be processed for the purpose of managing the alumni file of OC&C Strategy Consultants and its affiliates. Management of the alumni file may involve, without limitation, conducting alumni mailings and surveys, and maintaining and sharing marketing & career development contacts.

Further, your information (including your name, current employer, job title, location and OC&C office you worked at) may be made available to other alumni via the site’s Alumni Directory and through any message board facility on the site. These alumni may be located in other countries, including countries that may not have as developed data protection laws.

Marketing

We may collect the e-mail addresses of those who send us e-mail messages; however, we will not send unsolicited e-mail to any of the addresses we collect or share those addresses with any unaffiliated third party, except in the limited circumstances set forth below.

Provided that you agree, we may use your information to provide you with marketing information that you request or that we feel may interest you by post and email.

We may transfer your information to or store it at a location outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”) to countries which do not have as developed data protection laws. It may also be processed by staff at any of our overseas offices or staff at OC&C affiliate companies.

If you are registered with us as an alumnus, your information may be disclosed to other alumni, who may be located in other countries outside the EEA (see also “How will we use your information?” above).

Who do we share your information with?

As set out above, we may share your information with OC&C affiliates.

We may disclose your personal information if required to do so by law, or if we believe that such action is necessary to: (1) comply with legal requirements, (2) protect and defend our rights or property or those of our users or (3) protect the personal safety of our users or the public. This may involve exchanging information with other companies and organisations for the purposes of fraud protection and credit risk reduction.

We may also share your information with other organisations: 

  • if we sell or buy any business or assets, (as we may share your data with the prospective seller or buyer);
  • if we or substantially all of our company assets are acquired by another party, in which case your information will be one of the transferred assets; or 
  • if we have to enforce or apply our terms set out in our Legal Notice, or any other agreements or terms and conditions.
