Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains the principles YK Executive Search applies when handling company and candidate information obtained through its website, communications channels, and Executive Search services.

This Policy does not replace the disclosures required under KVKK. Please review our Data Protection Notice (KVKK) for details about the categories of personal data processed, purposes and legal grounds, transfers, and your data-subject rights.

We handle information lawfully and fairly, for specified and legitimate purposes, and only to the extent necessary. We take care to keep data accurate and up to date, avoid using it for unrelated purposes, and retain it no longer than required.

We regard confidentiality not only as a technical requirement, but as a fundamental part of the trust we build with companies and candidates.

We treat the existence of a search engagement, strategic details about a role, and candidate identities as sensitive information. Access is limited to authorized people who need the information to carry out the relevant engagement.

Before presenting candidate information to a client company, we inform the candidate about the process and relevant role and limit the disclosure to an appropriate legal basis and necessary scope. We likewise share confidential client information with candidates only to the extent required by the process.

We use information you provide through the contact form, email, or telephone to respond to your request, assess your needs, and communicate with you. Please avoid including sensitive or special-category personal data that is not necessary for your request.

We do not sell personal information. Any promotional or marketing communication is sent only where a valid legal basis exists under applicable law.

We may use suppliers for website, database, hosting, email, and information-technology services. Information shared with these providers is limited to what is necessary for the service and protected through appropriate contractual and technical measures.

Information may also be disclosed to authorized persons and institutions to comply with legal obligations, respond to lawful requests from competent authorities, or protect legal rights.

We apply appropriate technical and organizational measures, including access restrictions, authentication, logging, and authorization controls, to protect information against unauthorized access, loss, alteration, or misuse.

No method of electronic transmission or storage can provide absolute security. If we identify a security incident, we take appropriate steps to limit its impact, investigate it, and make any notifications required by law.

Please review our Cookie Policy for details about cookies used on the site and how to manage your preferences.

Our website may link to LinkedIn, Instagram, or other third-party sites. YK Executive Search is not responsible for those sites' content, security practices, or privacy policies; we recommend reviewing the relevant policy before using an external service.

We retain information only for as long as necessary for the purpose for which it was obtained and to meet legal obligations. When retention is no longer required, we delete, destroy, or anonymize the information in accordance with applicable law.

We may update this Policy to reflect changes in our services, technologies, or applicable law. The current version takes effect when it is published on this page.
