It is part of how I work. This explains exactly where it shows up, which tools are in use, and where it does not belong.

• AI supports my research, synthesis, and note-taking. It never makes hiring decisions.
• Every shortlist, assessment, and recommendation made is based on direct conversation, primary research, and references — not AI outputs.
• I only use enterprise-grade tools with clean data use terms and contractual no-training guarantees.
• AI should never be used to tell you about any candidate, or about any specific market, ever. That obligation requires direct conversation, and the context that only comes with that work.
• When I use tools to handle a client, my conduct reflects on their record. That obligation shapes every decision about which tools reach the work.

When I use AI, it is only on enterprise-grade tools with contractual no-training guarantees. LLT, Signal certifications, and all appropriate data processing agreements for consumer-grade or feed-free tools are used to clean or handle data work.

Clients and candidates may request full disclosure of specific tools and service documentation at any time.

• You may request that I use no AI tools whatever on any of your work at any time.
• You may request that all work on your engagement be kept exclusively within the enterprise-grade tools.
• You may request full service documentation for any tool use.
• If you have a legal, security, or compliance contact who wants to review AI usage, I'll engage with them directly.

This policy applies to all visitors to this website and to all clients and candidates in the course of a search engagement.

The Montgomery Group is operated by The Montgomery Group, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company. For the purposes of the GDPR, we are a data controller in respect of any personal data that we collect about you through the use of our website or through the course of a search engagement.

The Montgomery Group collects data to fulfill the legitimate business purposes of clients and to provide executive search services to clients and candidates. We operate primarily in the United States and may also engage with individuals from the United Kingdom and European Union.

We collect data that may include: name, email address, and phone number; employment history, organizational structure, and information necessary to perform executive search duties under the terms of a signed engagement agreement.

• To perform retained executive search under signed client engagement agreement.
• To maintain ongoing market awareness of client and candidate position changes.
• We do not sell or share personal data with third parties for marketing purposes.
• We do not use personal data for automated decision-making or profiling.
• Personal data is not provided for industrial, learning, or coaching purposes.

Executive search data is handled under the terms of a legally-binding engagement agreement. All parties must sign the contract in good faith before personal data is collected or shared. Should consent be withdrawn at any time, an appropriate legal process will be activated and data immediately deleted.

Data is retained only for the duration of the engagement and only as long as any active client business or record mandate allows. Once a search has been fully completed and 30 days have elapsed, all personally identifying information is deleted from all records and platforms unless further retention is required by applicable law, or the client and candidate agree in writing.

You have the right to access, review, and request deletion of any data we hold about you. To make a request, contact us in writing at info@themontgomerygroup.com. Depending on your location, you may also have the right to receive a copy of your data at no cost.
