Match your privacy policy to the people data your consultancy actually handles

An HR consultancy may handle a wider and more sensitive mix of personal information than a basic brochure website. Depending on your services, that can include CVs, interview notes, employee relations material, references, client contact details, training records or other people data. A generic policy may not explain those activities clearly enough, especially where information comes from several sources or is shared with clients and service providers. Privacy wording works best when it is matched to your real collection, use, storage and disclosure practices, not just what appears on your homepage.

A client privacy policy for an HR consultancy will usually explain what categories of personal data you collect, where the information comes from, why you use it, who it may be disclosed to, how long it is kept and what rights individuals may have. It may also need to reflect recruitment support, outsourced HR services, training, investigations, website enquiries and third-party systems. The right drafting depends on your actual data flows, including what you collect, why you use it and who receives it, so the policy should line up with your real service delivery rather than broad generic wording.

We usually need a practical picture of your consultancy's data flows. That may include the services you provide, the categories of personal data you receive, whether information comes from clients, candidates, referees or website users, which software tools you use, and how data is shared with clients or external providers. If you already have a privacy policy, that can also be reviewed as part of the process. The right wording depends on the deal structure, the documents exchanged and how the arrangement operates in practice, particularly where your role varies across different service lines.

Yes. If you already have a policy in place, we can review and update it so it better matches your current operations. That is often useful where an HR consultancy has expanded from straightforward advisory work into recruitment support, outsourced people operations, training or more complex handling of candidate and employee-related information. A review can also identify where the wording on your site no longer reflects your internal processes or third-party tools. If you need wider privacy documentation beyond the policy itself, that would usually be separate work.

It can be. Templates and generators often produce broad wording that does not properly describe how an HR consultancy receives, uses and shares personal information in practice. That can become a problem if the published policy says one thing but your actual service model, software stack or client arrangements say another. For example, a template may not deal well with candidate sourcing, client instructions or mixed advisory and recruitment services.
