Privacy policy.

What we collect when you use this site or reach out to us, why, who we share it with, and how to control it. Plain language, no dark patterns.

Chief Negotiators LLC ("we," "us," "our") operates www.thechiefnegotiators.com. This policy covers information collected through this website — not the confidential handling of mandate information once you have engaged us, which is covered directly in our engagement terms with you.

Information we collect

Directly from you, when you use a form on this site (the inquiry form, the offtaker qualification request, or the availability matcher): your name, company and title, email address, phone number where you provide it, and the details of your requirement (platform, scale, region, timing, term, deposit position, or a free-text brief).

Automatically, through our website analytics provider: pages visited, general location (country/region level), device and browser type, and how you arrived at the site. IP addresses are anonymized before this data is processed.

We do not collect sensitive categories of personal data (health, biometric, precise geolocation, and similar) through this site, and our forms do not ask for them.

How we use it

To respond to your inquiry, run the mandate you have asked us to work, and communicate with you about it. To understand which pages are useful, so we can improve the site. We do not use your information to make automated decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects on you.

Who we share it with

We do not sell your personal data. It passes through a small number of service providers, each used only for what they are described for below:

  • A form-delivery service — routes inquiries submitted through this site's forms to our email inbox. It is a mail pipe, not a party we share your information with for any other purpose.
  • A website analytics provider — site usage analytics, with IP anonymization enabled. Only active after you accept analytics cookies (see below).
  • A scheduling tool — if you book a call through our booking link, that provider processes what you enter there (name, email, time selected) under its own privacy terms.

We may also disclose information where required by law, to protect our legal rights, or in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets — in which case we would tell you.

Cookies and analytics

This site uses a consent banner. Analytics cookies are not set until you accept it. If you decline, no analytics cookies are set for that session, and you can change your choice at any time using the "Cookie preferences" link in the footer of any page.

We do not currently use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. If that changes, we will update this section and the consent banner before any new cookie is set.

Data retention

We keep inquiry and mandate information for as long as needed to run the engagement, maintain our business records, and meet legal, accounting or tax obligations — after which it is deleted or anonymized. Analytics data is retained under our analytics provider's standard retention settings.

Your rights

Depending on where you are located, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or receive a copy of your personal data, to object to or restrict certain processing, and to withdraw consent (including for analytics cookies) at any time. California residents have the right to know what personal information is collected and to request its deletion; we do not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below.

International transfers

We are based in the United States, and the processors listed above may process data in the United States or other countries. Where we transfer personal data internationally, we take reasonable steps to ensure it receives an appropriate level of protection.

Children's privacy

This site is directed at business professionals and is not intended for, and does not knowingly collect information from, children.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as our practices change. The date at the top reflects the most recent revision. Material changes will be reflected here directly.
