Privacy Policy

Effective September 9, 2026

McGovern Executive Search, LLC ("MES," "we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This policy explains what information may be collected through this website, how it is used, and the choices available to you.

Information you provide

This website does not use an online contact form. If you contact MES by email or telephone, we receive the information you choose to provide, such as your name, contact information, organization, professional background, and the substance of your inquiry.

Please do not send confidential candidate materials or other sensitive personal information until you have communicated directly with MES and determined that email is an appropriate method of transmission.

Information collected automatically

Our website host and security providers may process limited technical information needed to deliver and protect the site, including IP address, browser and device type, referring page, pages requested, and timestamps. At launch, MES intends to use cookie-free, privacy-conscious website analytics to understand aggregate site usage. We do not use advertising cookies, cross-site tracking, or behavioral advertising on this website.

How information is used

We may use information to respond to inquiries, evaluate whether MES can assist with an executive or board search, communicate with clients and prospective clients, operate and secure the website, understand aggregate website usage, maintain business records, and comply with legal obligations.

How information is shared

MES does not sell personal information. We do not share personal information for targeted advertising. Information may be disclosed to service providers that support website hosting, security, analytics, email, and business operations; to professional advisers when appropriate; or when required by law or necessary to protect legal rights and security.

Retention and security

We retain information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was received, for legitimate business and recordkeeping needs, or as required by law. We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards, but no website or electronic communication method can be guaranteed completely secure.

External links

This website links to LinkedIn and may link to other third-party websites. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies, not this one.

Children

This website is intended for business and professional audiences and is not directed to children under 13. MES does not knowingly collect personal information from children through the website.

Your choices

You may contact MES to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information you have provided directly to us. Certain information may be retained when required by law or for legitimate business purposes.

Policy updates

We may update this policy as the website, service providers, or legal requirements change. The effective date above will be revised when material changes are made.
