Your Privacy
Privacy isn’t just a legal requirement for us at Edgility Consulting–it’s fundamental to how we operate. When clients trust us with their most sensitive organizational challenges, protecting confidential information becomes second nature. This same commitment extends to anyone who visits our website or shares their contact details with us.
Information We Collect
What You Share Directly
Contact Forms: When someone fills out our contact form, we collect their name, email address, address, and phone number. People often include details about their company, role, or specific challenges they’re facing.
Newsletter Subscriptions: Email subscribers provide their email address and can select topics they’re interested in hearing about–whether that’s search practices, board support, or industry insights.
Event Registrations: Our workshops and webinars require basic registration information, including name, email, company, and relevant background details, which help us tailor the content appropriately.
Information We Collect Automatically
Website Analytics: Google Analytics provides insight into how people discover and utilize our website. We see general location data, device types, which pages get the most attention, and how long visitors spend reading our content.
Cookies: Our website uses cookies for basic functionality and to understand user behavior. Some are essential for the site to work properly; others help us improve the user experience.
Social Media Tracking: We utilize LinkedIn pixels to measure the effectiveness of our content and display relevant information to visitors who have previously viewed our site.
How We Use Your Information
Responding to Inquiries: When someone contacts us, we use their information to respond thoughtfully and follow up promptly. This might involve scheduling calls, sending relevant resources, or connecting them with the right team member.
Client Services: For active consulting engagements, we utilize contact information to coordinate projects, share updates, and maintain open communication throughout our collaboration.
Professional Communication: We send newsletters, industry insights, and event invitations to individuals who have opted in. These communications aim to provide value rather than just promote our services.
Website Improvements: Analytics data helps us understand what content resonates with visitors and where we can improve the user experience.
Business Operations: At times, we must process information for legal compliance, to safeguard our business interests, or to maintain accurate operational records.
Protecting Your Information
Technical Security: We utilize SSL encryption for all data transmission, employ secure hosting providers, and keep our systems up to date with the latest security patches. Our website infrastructure includes multiple layers of protection against unauthorized access.
Access Controls: Our team members who need access to specific information for their work can view it. We maintain logs of who accesses what information and when.
Data Minimization: We collect only what is necessary and delete information when it’s no longer required for business purposes.
Regular Reviews: Our security practices get reviewed and updated regularly to address new threats and maintain appropriate protection levels.
No online system is completely secure, but we take reasonable precautions to protect the information entrusted to us.
Sharing Information
We never sell personal information. This isn’t revenue for us–it would contradict our core values around confidentiality and trust.
Service Providers: We work with carefully selected vendors for email marketing, customer management, website hosting, and analytics. These companies can only use your information for specific purposes we’ve defined, and they’re contractually required to maintain security standards.
Legal Requirements: We’ll disclose information only if required by law, a court order, or to protect someone’s safety. This would be a last resort, not a routine practice.
Business Transfers: If we are ever acquired by another company or sell our business, your information may be part of that transaction.
