Privacy notice

Effective November 10, 2026

  1. 1. Who we are

    Burrard Legal Talent is a legal search business in Vancouver, British Columbia. We run searches for lawyers on behalf of a hiring law firm. This notice explains what happens to the personal information you give us when you apply.

  2. 2. What we collect

    Only what you send us through the application form or by email:

    1. Your name, email address and phone number.
    2. Your year of call and jurisdiction.
    3. Your current firm, if you choose to give it.
    4. Your resume and anything you write in the note.
    5. Later, with your agreement, what you tell us in conversation and what your references tell us.

  3. 3. What we do not collect

    1. Your current or past pay. We do not ask for it.
    2. Anything from your employer. We do not contact your firm.
    3. References, until you say we may.
    4. Tracking data. This website sets no advertising or analytics cookies.

  4. 4. Why we collect it

    We use your information for these purposes and no others:

    1. To assess you for the search you applied to.
    2. To contact you about that search.
    3. To keep a record of your consent and of what was done with your application.

  5. 5. Who sees it

    Your application is shared with the hiring firm for the search you applied to. By applying you consent to that. The firm's name is given to you before any interview; if you then prefer not to go further, tell us and we will close your file and use it for nothing further.

    We do not share your information with any other employer, we do not sell it, and we do not use it for marketing.

    Our email and website hosting providers handle the information on our behalf, and may store or process it in the United States, where it is subject to the laws of that country.

  6. 6. How long we keep it

    We keep your application for 12 months after the search closes and then delete it. The law requires information used to make a decision about you to be kept for at least one year, so that you can ask to see it. If you withdraw sooner, we close your file: it is kept only for that purpose, used for nothing else, and deleted when the period ends.

    If you are hired, your application passes to the firm as your employer.

  7. 7. Your choices

    1. You can withdraw your application and your consent at any time.
    2. You can ask what information we hold about you and how it has been used.
    3. You can ask us to correct it.
    4. You can ask who it has been shared with.

  8. 8. How to reach us

    Write to the Privacy Officer at privacy@burrardlegaltalent.com. We answer within 30 days. If you are not satisfied with our answer, you may complain to the Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner for British Columbia.
