Please note that our website contains links to other sites outside of our responsibility that may or not share these terms and conditions. Do feel free to contact any of our staff if you have any queries or any further concerns that still need to be addressed.

We reserve the right to change these terms and conditions at any time. Your continued access and use of the website means that you agree to the most current version of these terms and conditions, last updated in September 2005.

It is therefore your responsibility to ensure that your details are both accurate and up-to date and that you inform us of any changes that need to be made. Any third party suppliers who are given access to your details towards fulfilling the remit of this website as outlined above will also adhere to these terms and conditions. Even so, the Barbara Houghton Group will never submit your details to a third party for secondary or unrelated purposes, or pass them on for commercial gain or for any other reason, unless explicitly indicated at the point of collection. Notwithstanding, in order to respond to requests from law enforcement, British regulatory bodies and government agencies, BHG may disclose personal details in order to comply with UK law. Should you send us your CV on-line, we extend the unequivocal assurance that it will not appear on our website, but be stored securely on our database to prevent compromise and help you get a new job. Nevertheless, you do not have to submit any personal information in order to use this website at an elementary level. By submitting data to this website, though, you agree to us processing it towards fulfilling this website's remit. In doing so, BHG will adopt the appropriate commercial standards of technology and operational security as advised to protect any information provided by you from loss, misuse, alteration or destruction. We will also use the information you submit to us to respond to you. We may also use it to make you aware of additional services that could be of interest to you, of new vacancies as they arise, or of improvements to this website as appropriate. Additionally, we may also use such data for usage as reported to the Data Protection Registrar/Commissioner. We've implemented procedures to obtain the necessary consents before using your details to contact you.

Even though our website summarises candidates' profiles, in publicising this information, we make no guarantee that an employer will ask for a candidate's details, invite them for interview, or offer them a position. Similarly, we do not guarantee that a candidate will be available to attend an interview or meet an employer's requirements. Additionally, we can make no warranty as to the final terms or duration of a position secured through this website.

Cookies & Web beacons
The Barbara Houghton Group or our service provider(s) may use cookies (small text files stored in your browser) or web beacons (electronic images that allow this site to count visitors who've accessed a particular page and to access certain cookies). These devices collect aggregate data and ensure that our website is well managed as well as ease navigation for you. We also use session cookies. These contain information about our website's users. However, our cookies are in no way linked to any personally identifiable information while on our site. We use them to track information on our systems and identify categories of visitors by items such as IP address, domain, browser type and pages visited. Clearly, we're keen to ensure that our website is well managed. Therefore, BHG or our service provider(s) may track information on our systems and identify categories of visitors using criteria as indicated above. Our service providers then use this data to analyse the activity around different areas of our site towards ensuring that it's an increasingly useful and effective service for our visitors. Neither cookies nor web beacons collect personal information such as your name or e-mail address. Cookies can always be rejected. Please note, though, that visitors can suffer restricted access to some parts of our site under specific circumstances if their browsers reject cookies.

Referral Reward Scheme
Any referral reward applies only to individuals referred and starting assignments after the 20th December 2005.

If the referred candidate has submitted their CV independently or via a job board to Barbara Houghton Associates within the three months prior to the referral, a referral reward will not be paid. The final decision on the validity of any referral rests with the Managing Director of Barbara Houghton Associates.
