Privacy Policy — Laxmi Venture Capital

Last updated: August 2026

Laxmi Venture Capital ("we", "us", "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what personal data we collect, why we collect it, how we use and store it, and the rights you have over it.

1. Who we are

Laxmi Venture Capital is a UK-based recruitment agency. For the purposes of UK data protection law, we act as a data controller for the personal data we hold about candidates, clients and website visitors. If you have any questions about this policy, contact us at info@laxmiventurecapital.co.uk.

2. Information we collect

Depending on how you interact with us, we may collect:

Candidate data: your name, contact details, CV/resume, work history, qualifications, references and any information you choose to share when applying or registering your interest.
Client/employer data: your name, company, contact details and details of the roles you are recruiting for, including job descriptions you provide.
Enquiry data: information you submit through our contact and enquiry forms.
Technical data: basic, non-identifying information such as browser type and pages visited, used to keep the site working and secure.

CV Match Checker: the CV match tool on our Jobs page runs entirely within your web browser. Any text you paste into it is not uploaded, transmitted or stored by us — it is processed locally on your device and discarded when you leave the page.

3. How we use your data

To match candidates with suitable roles and to provide recruitment and HR consultancy services.
To contact you about opportunities, enquiries or services you have requested.
To share relevant candidate details with prospective employers, where appropriate and with your knowledge.
To meet our legal, regulatory and contractual obligations.

4. Lawful basis for processing

We process your personal data on the basis of your consent (which you may withdraw at any time), our legitimate interests in providing recruitment services, and where necessary to take steps to enter into or perform a contract with you.

5. Sharing your data

We only share your data where necessary — for example, with prospective employers when putting you forward for a role, or with trusted service providers who help us operate (such as our email and form-handling providers). We do not sell your personal data to third parties.

6. How long we keep your data

We retain candidate and client data only for as long as necessary to provide our services and to comply with legal obligations. Where we no longer have a legitimate reason to keep your data, we will securely delete it. You may ask us to remove your data at any time.

7. Data security

We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, loss or misuse. CVs and personal information are handled confidentially and only accessed by those who need to.

8. Your rights

Under UK GDPR you have the right to:

Access the personal data we hold about you;
Ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete data;
Ask us to erase your data ("right to be forgotten");
Restrict or object to our processing of your data;
Request a copy of your data in a portable format;
Withdraw consent at any time.

To exercise any of these rights, email info@laxmiventurecapital.co.uk. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk.

9. Cookies

Our website uses only essential cookies required for the site to function. We do not use tracking or advertising cookies without your consent.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with a revised "last updated" date.
