Last Updated: 12 September 2026

Gravitas Edge Consulting ("Gravitas Edge", "we", "us" or "our") respects your privacy and is committed to handling personal information responsibly. This Privacy Policy explains the personal information we may collect, why we use it, how it may be shared, how long it may be retained, and the rights and choices that may be available to you.

This Policy applies to the Gravitas Edge website, user accounts, Premium Opportunity Vaults, Free Preview, free communication channels, resume uploads, Recruitment Consulting interactions, referral programme, customer support and related services.

3.Legal Basis / Permission for Use

We process personal information only where there is an appropriate legal basis or permission under applicable law. Depending on the context, this may include your consent, processing necessary to provide a service you requested or purchased, compliance with legal obligations, or other lawful grounds recognised by applicable law.

Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent through the mechanism provided or by contacting us. Withdrawal does not affect processing that was lawful before withdrawal and may not require deletion of information that must be retained for legal, accounting, fraud-prevention or other lawful purposes.

4.Opportunity, Recruiter and Application Information

Gravitas Edge curates employment opportunities from recruiters, Hiring Managers, employers, recruitment consultants, professional networks and other professional/recruitment sources available to us.

The Premium Opportunity Vault service concerns the work involved in identifying, curating, organising, categorising and presenting opportunities together with the relevant route to apply or make contact. Gravitas Edge does not claim ownership of underlying third-party job vacancies or third-party contact information.

Subscribers must use recruiter, Hiring Manager, consultant, employer and application information only for genuine employment-related purposes and in accordance with applicable law.

5.Resume Uploads and Recruitment Consulting

Resume upload is optional unless expressly stated otherwise for a particular service. Uploading a resume does not guarantee that Gravitas Edge will contact you, submit your profile, shortlist you, arrange an interview or secure employment.

For specific Recruitment Consulting mandates where Gravitas Edge has been engaged to identify candidates, we may review candidate information and contact potentially relevant candidates. Where a profile is to be shared with a client/prospective employer, we will handle the sharing in accordance with the applicable recruitment process, our instructions/notice to the candidate and applicable law.

Please avoid including unnecessary sensitive personal information in your resume.

6.Sharing With Service Providers and Other Recipients

  • Website hosting, cloud infrastructure and database providers.
  • Payment processors and payment gateways.
  • Email, messaging, customer-support and communication providers.
  • Authentication, security, fraud-prevention and technical service providers.
  • Analytics providers where enabled and permitted.
  • Professional advisers, auditors, accountants or legal advisers where reasonably necessary.
  • Recruitment clients/prospective employers in connection with a relevant Recruitment Consulting mandate, in accordance with the applicable candidate process and law.
  • Government, regulatory, judicial or law-enforcement authorities where disclosure is lawfully required.

We do not sell your personal information as a standalone data product.

7.International Processing and Transfers

Gravitas Edge is operated from India. Some service providers or technologies may process or store personal information outside India or outside the country where a user is located.

Where applicable, we will take reasonable steps to use appropriate safeguards and comply with applicable restrictions governing international processing or transfers.

8.Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected and for applicable legal, accounting, tax, security, fraud-prevention, dispute-resolution and contractual requirements.

Resume/CV information may be retained for a reasonable period to support recruitment-related purposes unless you request deletion and no overriding lawful retention requirement applies. Retention periods may vary depending on the nature of the information and service.

9.Security

We use reasonable technical and organisational safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorised access, misuse, loss, alteration or disclosure. Access should be limited according to role and business need.

No internet-based system can guarantee absolute security.

If we learn that personal information of a child has been collected in circumstances requiring deletion or parental consent, we will take appropriate action in accordance with applicable law.
