INTRODUCTION

This is the Privacy Statement and Policy (“Privacy Statement”) for Boston
Consulting Group, Inc. and its affiliates ("BCG"). This Privacy Policy was last
updated on 19th July, 2021. For more detail on BCG's international operations
please see https://www.bcg.com/offices/default.

BCG understands that your privacy is important. BCG is committed to protecting
your privacy and personal information you provide or as you access and use
materials on BCG.com (the "Site"), including the Site subscription pages or
other websites or apps that post a link to this Privacy Statement. In addition,
information that you submit to BCG in response to an email request for
information or other outreach from BCG, or through BCG’s employment application
processes, will be treated in accordance with this Privacy Statement.

BCG may, in its discretion, amend this Privacy Statement from time to time. To
ensure you are able to remain informed about the information we collect and how
we use it, material changes to our statement will be reflected here. This Site
may contain links to external sites which are not governed by this Privacy
Statement. BCG does not take responsibility for the privacy practices of any
third party sites to which we link. We encourage you to review the privacy
policies of any such sites before you submit information there.


YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THIS PRIVACY STATEMENT



Please read this Privacy Statement carefully. By browsing our website and
expressly consenting where required (for instance, when submitting your
application), you agree to be bound by this Privacy Statement.


INFORMATION THAT WE COLLECT, AND HOW WE USE IT



What information do we collect?

BCG collects information from you when you create your account for the Site,
request copies of publications, subscribe for email newsletters and press
releases, seek additional information regarding our services or employment
opportunities, databases, or register for conferences and other BCG-sponsored
events. If you do not provide such information, you will not be able to create
an account for the Site, request copies of publications, subscribe for email
newsletters and press releases, seek additional information regarding our
services or employment opportunities.

Personal information that we collect includes: names, addresses, e-mail
addresses, phone numbers, unique personal identifiers, financial information,
subject areas of interest and/or demographic information.

In addition, we sometimes aggregate demographic information and the types of
systems and browsers of users BCG also may conduct user surveys on the Web or
use technologies to provide BCG with information on a number of areas, such as
user identity, user viewing habits, whether or not users found what they were
searching for, whether the Site content is relevant to user needs, and the like.

How do we use personal information?

The purposes and uses of your personal information will depend on the use of the
Site and the personal information provided. We process your personal
information:

(i) for the purposes of safeguarding the legitimate interests pursued by BCG.
This includes:

 * Informing you about updates to the service and notifying you about other
   products and services offered by BCG that may be of interest to you,
   including information regarding publications and events
 * Tailoring your experience at the Site with relevant BCG materials
 * Understanding the Site’s user population, identifying subject areas of
   interest, and determining whether the Site is designed to work with the
   computer settings of a majority of our visitors
 * Measuring and improving the effectiveness of BCG marketing programs across
   different channels.
 * Improving our web content and navigation.

(ii) on the basis of your consent. Insofar as you have granted us consent to the
processing of personal information for specific purposes (for example, your
application form for employment with BCG), the lawfulness of such processing is
based on your consent. You may withdraw your consent at any time.

(iii) for compliance with a legal obligation. This includes anti-fraud and
anti-money laundering measures as well as tax and social security requirements.

We will not sell, share, or rent or otherwise make available your personal
information to other parties, except that we may disclose the information to
third parties who perform services on our behalf and have a need to access the
information in connection with those services. Any third parties will only
process this information to the extent to which and within the limits that BCG
itself is permitted to process that data. In addition, BCG may disclose your
contact information in response to inquiries by bona-fide rights owners in
connection with allegations of infringement of copyright or other proprietary
rights arising from information that you have posted on the Site or otherwise
provided to BCG.


HOW WE MIGHT SHARE YOUR INFORMATION



The third parties with whom we may need to share personal information to help us
provide services and products to you and to run our Website include:

 * our subsidiaries or affiliates;
 * our advisors;
 * our third party service providers who process information on our behalf to
   help run some of our internal business operations including email
   distribution, IT services and marketing and events services;
 * our business partners for publications and events co-organized by BCG and
   them;
 * law enforcement bodies in order to comply with any legal obligation or court
   order

Because BCG is a global organization we need to transfer personal information
which is collected on the Site or through other means across the BCG group of
companies (http://www.bcg.com/about/offices/default) to help operate our
business efficiently. This also includes third parties located in different
countries around the world, including outside of the EEA. These arrangements may
involve your personal information being located in various countries around the
world e.g. USA where privacy laws differ. We only make these arrangements or
transfers where we are satisfied that adequate levels of protection are in place
to protect information held in that country. In addition, the Site may be viewed
and accessed anywhere in the world including countries that may not have laws
regulating the use and transfer of personally identifiable information. By using
the Site, submitting information through this site, or submitting personal
information to BCG through other means you voluntarily consent to such
international transfer and hosting of such information to those countries and
parties.


RETENTION OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION



BCG retains your personal information for so long as is necessary to fulfil the
purpose for which it was collected. We may retain your personal information for
longer if they may be the subject of a legal claim, or may otherwise be relevant
for future litigation.
