Beowulf’s Privacy Statement
-
Beowulf (“Beowulf,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) is an ultra-boutique strategic advisory firm providing high-conviction executive insights, technology architecture, co-innovation, and governance frameworks for artificial intelligence and quantum technologies.
This Privacy Statement (“Statement”) applies to processing activities where Beowulf acts as a Data Controller for personal data collected through our digital platforms, executive briefings, diagnostic assessments, and commercial operations.
Where we evaluate, audit, or process enterprise data strictly on behalf of client organizations during specialized strategic advisory, pilot development, or governance engagements, we act as a Data Processor bound by client directives and rigorous non-disclosure agreements.
-
This Statement outlines how Beowulf collects, uses, and safeguards personal data globally across our executive interactions and digital platforms. It does not apply to our clients' independent processing activities or third-party platforms linked within our strategic briefings.
If you apply for an executive or advisory position at Beowulf, candidate-specific privacy notices will apply during the recruitment process.
-
Given the executive nature of our engagements, Beowulf limits data collection to information necessary to conduct high-level strategic advisory and maintain operational security:
Contact & Professional Data: Executive name, corporate title, organization, business email, telephone number, region, and professional background provided during briefing requests or diagnostic inquiries.
Engagement & Diagnostic Data: Organizational posture evaluations, strategic requirements, board briefing records, and survey responses provided during our Reimagine, Plan, Build, and Govern service pathways.
Technical Data: IP address, operating system, browser configuration, interaction metrics, and cookie identifiers collected automatically when accessing Beowulf web properties to optimize security and platform performance.
Communication Data: Direct correspondence, meeting records, and inquiry logs generated during executive consultations.
We do not sell personal data under any circumstances.
-
We process personal data to execute our advisory operations, fulfill contractual commitments, and maintain enterprise security:
Executive Service Delivery: Conducting CXO & Board Strategic Assessments, delivering customized briefings, and executing advisory engagements.
Communications & Thought Leadership: Transmitting executive briefs, strategic insights, and invitations to exclusive briefings or roundtables (subject to user preferences).
Platform Security & Optimization: Monitoring system integrity, preventing security incidents, and enhancing the performance of our web infrastructure.
Legal & Regulatory Compliance: Fulfilling statutory obligations, auditing requirements, and enforcing contractual agreements.
Legal Bases for Processing (EEA / UK)
We process personal data based on:
Contractual Necessity: Fulfilling agreements or executing pre-contractual requests.
Legitimate Interests: Operating an authoritative advisory firm, securing infrastructure, and delivering strategic insights to enterprise buyers.
Legal Obligations: Complying with statutory or regulatory mandates.
Consent: Where explicit consent is required for specific communications or data uses.
-
As an ultra-boutique advisory firm, client confidentiality is paramount. We disclose personal data only to the following entities under strict contractual obligations:

-
As a frontier technology advisory firm with unique expertise in geopolitical risk management, it operates in a global context. Should any occasion arise where personal data might be transferred across borders—including outside the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom, or Switzerland—Beowulf will enforce adequacy measures, such as standard contractual clauses (SCCs) or recognized transfer mechanisms, to guarantee standard protections.
-
We retain personal data only for as long as required to satisfy the operational purposes outlined in this Statement, maintain client relationships, resolve disputes, and meet legal or audit obligations. Beowulf employs administrative, physical, and cryptographic security controls designed to safeguard executive data against unauthorized access, loss, or alteration.
