Personal Data Collection and Use

Our Predictive Index Policies describe the categories of Personal Data that we may receive in the U.S. as well as the purposes for which we use that Personal Data. The Predictive Index will only process Personal Data in ways that are compatible with the original purpose for which it was collected, or for purposes the individual later authorizes. Before we use your Personal Data for a purpose that is materially different than the purpose we collected it for or that you later authorized, we will provide you with the opportunity to opt out. The Predictive Index maintains reasonable procedures to help ensure that Personal Data is reliable for its intended use, accurate, complete, and current.

We may collect the following categories of sensitive Personal Data: certain demographic information that may include information regarding gender, nationality, and/or racial origin. When we collect sensitive Personal Data, we will obtain your express opt-in consent where the DPF Principles require, including if we disclose your sensitive Personal Data to third parties, or before we use your sensitive Personal Data for a different purpose than we collected it for or than you later authorized.

Consistent with the DPF Principles, the Predictive Index may transfer Personal Data to our third-party agents, resellers, licensees, or service providers, as described below:

Third-Party Agents or Service Providers. We may transfer Personal Data to our third-party agents, resellers, licensees, or service providers who perform functions on our behalf or on behalf of our customers as described in our Predictive Index Policies. Where required by the DPF Principles , we enter into written agreements with those third-party agents, resellers, licensees, and service providers requiring them to provide the same level of protection the DPF Principles  require and limiting their use of the data to the specified services provided on our behalf or on behalf of our customers. We take reasonable and appropriate steps to ensure that third-party agents, resellers, licensees, and service providers process Personal Data in accordance with our  obligations under the DPF Principles and to stop and remediate any unauthorized processing. Under certain circumstances, we may remain liable for the acts of our third-party agents, resellers, licensees, or service providers who perform services on our behalf or on behalf of our customers for their handling of Personal Data that we transfer to them.

Third-Party Data Controllers; Limitation on Use and Disclosure. In some cases we may transfer Personal Data to unaffiliated third-party data controllers, including our customers. These third parties do not act as agents or service providers and are not performing functions on our behalf. We may transfer your Personal Data to third-party data controllers for the purposes described in our Predictive Index Policies. We will only provide your Personal Data to third-party data controllers where you have opted-in to such disclosures. Any sensitive Personal Data you may have elected to provide to us is for the internal use of the Predictive Index only and will not be provided to third parties at all without your express written consent. We enter into written contracts with any unaffiliated third-party data controllers requiring them to provide the same level of protection for Personal Data the DPF Principles require. We also limit their use of your Personal Data so that it is consistent with any consent you have provided and with the notices you have received. If we transfer your Personal Data to one of our affiliated entities within our corporate group, we will take steps to ensure that your Personal Data is protected with the same level of protection the DPF Principles require.

These access rights may not apply in some cases, including where providing access is unreasonably burdensome or expensive under the circumstances, or where it would violate the rights of someone other than the individual requesting access. If you would like to request access to, correction, amendment, or deletion of your Personal Data, you can submit a written request to the contact information provided below. We may request specific information from you to confirm your identity.
