Terms of Use

This website is operated by Strance HR Solutions India Pvt Ltd, E Floor, Taj Deccan, Road No. 1, Banjara Hills, Hyderabad, Telangana 500034, India (“STRANCE”, “we”, “us”). In these terms, “you” means anyone using the site.

If you do not accept these terms, please do not use the site.

STRANCE is an executive search and leadership intelligence firm. This site describes our practice, our markets and our methodology, publishes our editorial insights, and provides two forms: one for organisations enquiring about a search, and one for senior executives who wish to be known to us.

Everything published here is for general information. It is not legal, financial, tax or employment advice, and it is not an offer to enter into a contract.

Submitting either form does not create a contract, a retainer, or any obligation on us or on you.

Registering with the executive network is not a job application. We do not undertake to contact you, to consider you for any particular mandate, to introduce you to any organisation, or to secure you an appointment. Search mandates are confidential and are conducted for our clients; we approach individuals when a specific mandate calls for it, and not otherwise.

An enquiry from an organisation does not oblige us to accept a mandate, and terms of engagement for any search are agreed separately in writing.

We never charge an individual a fee to register, to be considered, or to be introduced. If anyone asks you to pay to be presented for a role in our name, it did not come from us. Tell us at privacy@strance.net.

You confirm that the information you submit is accurate, that it is yours to give, and that sharing it with us breaches no obligation you owe to anyone else — including any confidentiality or non-disclosure obligation you owe your current employer.

Do not send us confidential information belonging to a third party, and do not send us sensitive personal data we have not asked for.

You keep ownership of what you send. You grant us permission to store and use it for the purposes set out in our privacy policy, and for no other purpose.

You agree not to:

• submit false information, or impersonate another person or organisation;
• use the forms to send unsolicited commercial messages, or to gather contact details;
• attempt to gain unauthorised access to the site, its infrastructure, or any data held in it;
• scrape, copy or systematically extract the site’s content for republication or for training a machine-learning system, except as section 7 permits;
• interfere with the site’s operation or its availability to others.

We may restrict or refuse access where we reasonably believe this section has been breached.

The STRANCE name, the wordmark, the site’s design, and its written and visual content are owned by us or used under licence, and are protected by copyright and trade mark law.

You may read, quote and share our published insights with attribution and a link to the original page. You may not republish an article in full, present our material as your own, or use our name or marks to imply an association that does not exist.

This site links to other sites, including changelabs.ai, which provides the intelligence layer described in our content. We are not responsible for the content or the privacy practices of sites we do not operate, and a link is not an endorsement.

We work to keep this site accurate and available, but we do not warrant that it will be uninterrupted, error-free, or current at every moment. Content may be changed or withdrawn without notice.

Market observations, sector commentary and any figures published in our insights describe conditions at the time of writing and should not be relied on as the sole basis for a decision.

Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, including liability for fraud, or for death or personal injury caused by negligence.

Subject to that, we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, or for loss of profit, revenue, business or opportunity, arising from your use of this site. Our total liability arising from the site is limited to one hundred United States dollars, or the equivalent in local currency. This section does not affect the terms of any separate written engagement, which govern that engagement instead.

Our privacy policy explains what personal data we collect through this site, how we hold it, and how you can see, correct or delete it. It forms part of these terms.

We may update these terms. The effective date at the top of this page states which version applies, and your continued use of the site after that date means you accept the current version.

These terms are governed by the laws of India. The courts of Hyderabad, Telangana have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising from them, save that we may bring proceedings to protect our intellectual property in any competent court.
