Privacy Policy.
Last updated · 01 January 2026
This policy describes how NEXARCHE™ processes personal data submitted through nexarche.com, the Apply intake, the Bench candidacy form, and direct correspondence with the firm. It is written to be read, not to be hidden.
- § 01
Controller.
The data controller is Nexarche Services BV, established in Brussels, Belgium, acting in coordination with the wider NEXARCHE™ group (IP Holdco, Services BV, Global Ltd).
Written notices may be addressed to legal@nexarche.com. Data protection enquiries may be addressed to privacy@nexarche.com.
- § 02
Data collected.
- Identity and professional context submitted through the Apply form (name, role, company, jurisdiction, email, website, mandate description).
- Candidacy material submitted through the Bench form (discipline, tenure, dossier summary, named artefact).
- Correspondence sent directly to the firm by email or otherwise.
- Minimal technical data necessary to operate the site (request logs, approximate location derived from IP for security purposes).
- § 03
Purpose and legal basis.
Submissions are processed solely to evaluate fit for a NEXARCHE™ mandate or Bench admission, to respond to the sender, and to maintain a confidential record of intake. The legal basis is the firm’s legitimate interest in operating its selective intake and, where applicable, pre-contractual steps requested by the sender.
- § 04
Retention.
Application material is retained for the duration of review and for a reasonable period thereafter to support continuity of correspondence and conflicts management. Mandate-related records are retained for the period required by applicable Belgian and EU law. Records no longer required are deleted on a structured schedule.
- § 05
Confidentiality.
All material is treated as confidential by default. Submissions are read by the Apex Principal and, where required, by named members of the firm bound by the same standard of discretion. Submissions are not shared with third parties for commercial purposes and are never sold.
- § 06
Processors and infrastructure.
The firm relies on a narrow set of infrastructure providers for hosting, email, and operational records. Each is bound by written terms consistent with the General Data Protection Regulation. A current list may be requested by written notice to privacy@nexarche.com.
- § 07
International transfers.
Where personal data is transferred outside the European Economic Area, the firm relies on the appropriate safeguards recognised under GDPR, including the Standard Contractual Clauses, and on providers offering equivalent protection.
- § 08
Your rights.
You may request access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, or objection in relation to personal data the firm holds about you. Requests are answered in writing within the period set by GDPR. You may also lodge a complaint with the Belgian Data Protection Authority (Autorité de protection des données / Gegevensbeschermingsautoriteit).
- § 09
Changes to this policy.
The policy may be revised to reflect changes in law or in firm practice. The version in force is the version published at this URL, dated above.
