How we handle your information
This Privacy Policy explains how Paige Mead Recruiting ("we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and protects information gathered through www.paigemeadrecruiting.com (the "Website"). Paige Mead Recruiting is an executive search and recruiting firm serving the dental and animal health industries. By using this Website, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. The revision date at the bottom of this page indicates when it was last modified.
When you submit our contact form or reach out via email, we may collect:
All personal information is submitted voluntarily. You are never required to provide personal information to browse this Website.
Our Candidate Opportunities page displays current openings through Crelate, the applicant tracking system we use to manage our searches. If you apply for a position or submit your resume there, the information you provide is collected and stored in that system on our behalf. This typically includes:
We are responsible for how this information is handled. We use it to evaluate your fit for the position you applied for and for future openings, and to stay in contact with you about your search. Your resume is never sent to a prospective employer without your explicit permission.
Crelate acts as a service provider processing this information on our behalf rather than for its own purposes. You can ask us at any time what we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it, by contacting us.
Our Website offers an AI chat assistant. If you use it, the messages you type are sent to our chat service and on to an AI provider, which generates the reply.
Your conversation is also kept in your own browser, in that tab's session storage, so the thread survives if you move between pages. Your browser normally clears it when you close the tab, though features such as reopening a closed tab or restoring a previous session can keep it longer. Any script running on this Website can read it while it is there, which is another reason not to type anything sensitive into the chat.
Please don't share sensitive personal information in the chat. It isn't the right place for your resume, salary details, medical or financial information, or anything confidential about your current employer. Use the Candidate Opportunities page or the contact form for anything you'd rather keep private.
The assistant is given the content published on this Website to answer from, but it is a generative AI model and can still produce information that is incomplete, outdated, or simply wrong. Nothing it says is a commitment on our part. For anything that matters, speak to Paige directly.

We take reasonable measures to protect the personal information submitted through our Website. Our site is served over HTTPS (encrypted connection), and we limit access to personal data to authorized personnel only. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
We retain personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, typically for the duration of an active recruiting engagement or business relationship.
Candidate records, including resumes submitted through our Candidate Opportunities page, are kept in our applicant tracking system so we can consider you for future openings as they arise. If you would rather we did not, you may request deletion of your personal data at any time by contacting us.
Our Website may contain links to external sites, including LinkedIn and industry organizations. These third-party websites have their own privacy policies, and we are not responsible for their content or practices. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any external site you visit.
Our Website and services are intended for business professionals in the dental and animal health industries. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under the age of 16. If we learn that we have inadvertently collected such data, we will delete it promptly.

Our Website does not currently respond to "Do Not Track" browser signals, as there is no industry-wide standard for compliance.
