C. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use first-party cookies, local-storage identifiers, and similar technologies to:

5. Linking Anonymous and Identified Data

We collect anonymous analytics data through cookies and log files. If you later provide your contact information, we may link your prior anonymous browsing data with your identified record. This helps us understand how visitors interact with our materials before contacting us and allows us to improve future communications.

All linked data is used solely for Pacific Executive Search's business operations and will not be shared outside our organization except as described below.

6. IP-Based and Company-Level Data

We may use IP-based lookup tools to infer company, industry, or region information associated with visits. This data is used in aggregate for business-intelligence and account-based-marketing purposes and is not used to personally identify individual users without consent.

7. Third-Party Service Providers

We use select third-party services to help operate our business, improve our website, and communicate with clients and candidates. These companies act as data processors on our behalf and are contractually required to handle all information securely and in compliance with applicable privacy laws.

We work with partners in the following categories:

• Analytics and Attribution Tools – to measure website performance, understand visitor engagement, and assess campaign effectiveness.
• Email and Marketing Automation Services – to manage subscriptions, deliver newsletters, and track email engagement metrics.
• Customer Relationship and Applicant Management Systems (CRM/ATS) – to maintain records of clients, candidates, and placements in order to provide recruiting services.
• Advertising and Retargeting Platforms – to display relevant advertising and account-based marketing to prospective clients. This includes services like AdRoll, which uses cookies and pixels to show you relevant ads based on your visits to our website and measure advertising effectiveness.
• Scheduling and Communication Tools – to facilitate virtual meetings, interviews, and calendar bookings.
• Cloud Hosting and Database Providers – to securely host our website, databases, and operational infrastructure.

These partners process data only to perform contracted functions and may not use information for any other purpose. No personal data is sold, shared, or used for unrelated advertising.

You may request a current list of our major service providers or ask questions about our data-processing relationships by contacting us at info@pacificexecutives.com.

8. Data Retention

We retain personal data only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Policy or as required by law. Anonymous usage logs may be retained for analytics for up to 12 months, after which they are aggregated or deleted.

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

• Request access to or deletion of your personal data
• Opt out of marketing communications
• Request information about how your data is used and shared
• Limit or withdraw consent for processing

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at info@pacificexecutives.com. We will verify your identity and respond within the timeframe required by applicable law.

We maintain administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect your information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. Despite these measures, no data transmission over the internet can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

11. Children's Privacy

Our website is not intended for children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from minors.
