HOW WE USE THE INFORMATION WE COLLECT

page to page, and in general to enhance the quality of our Platform. We may use
aggregated session data to better understand how our Platform is navigated, as
well as the types of browsers and computer operating systems that our visitors
use, and the IP addresses of the visitors.

We may combine data from multiple Respondents; combine Respondent data with our
general research data; or compare or associate Respondent data with other
Respondent data.

regulations may require that we disclose information that we hold. We will use
reasonable efforts to disclose only the information required under applicable
law in response to a valid court order, warrant, or subpoena.

prevent fraudulent activity, or where it is otherwise necessary to pursue
available remedies. If a Customer neglects to pay amounts due and owed to PSP,
PSP may send that Customer’s name, contact information, and account information
to a third-party service provider for collection of overdue payments.

purposes.

We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect Personal Information,
both during transmission and once we receive it. We use administrative,
physical, and technical measures to protect Personal Information from any
unauthorized access, loss, misuse, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.

EU GENERAL DATA PROTECTION REGULATION (“GDPR”) POLICY

The GDPR is a set of regulations coming into effect on May 25, 2018 that
enhances the date privacy rights of EU individuals. PSP is committed to
upholding GDPR compliance among our Products and Services.

We updated our internal policies and external contracts to ensure compliance
with the GDPR. PSP processes personal data on the following legal bases: (1)
with your consent; (2) as necessary to provide our Products and Services; and
(3) as necessary for our legitimate interests in providing the Products and
Services where those interests do not override your fundamental rights and
freedom related to data privacy. PSP has put in place safeguards to protect
personal privacy and individual choice, including disclosures of its data
processing activities and the use of consent mechanisms. 

PSP also routinely enters into contracts with organizations where compliance
with GDPR is also specified within the contract.

The European Commission can decide that standard contractual clauses offer
sufficient safeguards on data protection for the data to be transferred
internationally. It has so far issued two sets of standard contractual clauses
for data transfers from data controllers in the EU to data controllers
established outside the EU or European Economic Area (EEA). It has also issued
one set of contractual clauses for data transfers from controllers in the EU to
processors established outside the EU or EEA. More information about these EC
standard clauses is available here. 

If Customer has a standard contract with GDPR language, we can execute that
standard contract. If not, we can offer specific contract clauses as approved by
the European Commission.

Right to lodge a complaint, Customer or others that interact with PSP that
reside in the EEA or Switzerland have the right to lodge a complaint about our
data collection and processing actions with the supervisory authority concerned.
The contact details for data protection authorities are available here.

Transfers, Personal Information we collect may be transferred to, and stored and
processed in, the United States or any other country in which we or our
affiliates or subcontractors maintain facilities. Upon the start of enforcement
of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), we will ensure that transfers
of Personal Information to a third country or an international organization are
subject to appropriate safeguards as described in Article 46 of the GDPR.

Individual Rights, if you are a resident of the EEA or Switzerland, you are
entitled to the following rights. Please note, that in order to verify your
identity, we may require you to provide us with personal information prior to
accessing any records containing information about you.

The right to access and correction, you have the right to request access to, and
a copy of, your personal data at no charge, as well as certain information about
our processing activities with respect to your data. You have the right to
request correction or completion of your personal data if it is inaccurate or
incomplete. You have the right to restrict our processing if you contest the
accuracy of the data we hold about you, for as long as it takes to verify its
accuracy.

The right to request data erasure, you have the right to have your data erased
from our Platform if the data is no longer necessary for the purpose for which
it was collected, you withdraw consent and no other legal basis for processing
exists, or you believe your fundamental rights to data privacy and protection
outweigh our legitimate interest in continuing the processing.

The right to object to our processing, you have the right to object to profiling
or other processing if your legitimate interests outweigh the legitimate
interests of PSP and so long as it does not interfere with a task carried out
for reasons of public interest.

Data breach notification policy, PSP will follow all applicable rules and
regulations of the GDPR, along with guidance and instruction from the applicable
data protection authorities, in handling, responding, and resolving a data
breach.

Data governance obligations, PSP has established procedures for periodically
verifying implementation of and compliance with the GDPR Principles. PSP
conducts ongoing assessments of our data protection practices to verify the
attestations and assertions of our privacy practices have been implemented
properly.

Privacy by Design, PSP has implemented various technical and organizational
measures to protect and minimize the amount and use of personal data we receive.
We have designed our systems and processes to ensure the necessary safeguards of
data protection are met.

Details of staff training and competence, PSP has trained all necessary staff on
the privacy regulations in effect and have appointed a global Data Protection
Officer to administer the data governance framework globally.

 

EU-U.S. AND SWISS-U.S. PRIVACY SHIELD POLICY

When PSP, Inc, (hereafter, “PSP” or “we”) transfer personal information from the
European Economic Area (“EEA”) and Switzerland to the United States, we comply
with the EU-U.S. and Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework as set forth by the
U.S. Department of Commerce regarding the collection, use, and retention of
personal data transferred from the EEA and Switzerland to the United States,
respectively. If there is any conflict between the terms in this Privacy Policy
and the Privacy Shield, the Privacy Shield shall govern. PSP has certified to
the U.S. Department of Commerce that it adheres to the Privacy Shield. To learn
more about the Privacy Shield program, and to view our certification, please
visit: www.privacyshield.gov.

PSP is subject to the investigatory and enforcement powers of the Federal Trade
Commission. If PSP shares EU or Swiss data with a third-party service provider
that processes the data solely on PSP’s behalf, then PSP will be liable for that
third party’s processing of EU and Swiss data in violation of the Privacy
Shield, unless PSP can prove that it is not responsible for the event giving
rise to the damage.

PSP’s Privacy Policy, above, describes the types of personal data PSP collects,
the types of third parties to which we disclose personal data, and the purposes
for which we do so. Residents of the EEA and Switzerland may have the right to
access the personal data that PSP holds about you and to request that we
correct, amend, or delete it if it is inaccurate or has been processed in
violation of the Privacy Shield. These access rights may not apply, including
where the burden or expense of providing access would be disproportionate to the
risks to the individual’s privacy in the case in question, or where the rights
of persons other than the individual would be violated.

If you would like to request access to, correction, amendment, or deletion of
your personal data, you can submit a request to privacy@corestrengths.com. We
may request specific information from you to confirm your identity.

PSP, Inc. provides choices and means for individuals to limit the use and
disclosure of their personal data. Individuals are provided with information
regarding the purpose for which personal data is being collected, how it will be
used, and the third parties, if any, that would receive personal data. PSP, Inc.
also provides a mechanism for registered account holders to delete their account
and all associated personal data upon request.

PSP, Inc. will only process personal data in a manner compatible with the
purpose that it was collected for. PSP, Inc. maintains reasonable procedures to
ensure that EU and Swiss personal data is reliable for its intended use,
accurate, complete, and current.

Under certain circumstances, we may be required to disclose your EU or Swiss
personal data in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to
meet national security or law enforcement requirements.

For any questions or complaints regarding our compliance with the Privacy Shield
Framework, please contact us at: privacy@corestrengths.com. If PSP, Inc. does
not resolve your complaint, you may submit your complaint free of charge to
https://www.jamsadr.com/file-an-eu-us-privacy-shield-claim PSP, Inc’s designated
independent dispute resolution provider. Under certain conditions specified by
the principles of the EU-U.S. and Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework, you may
also be able to invoke binding arbitration to resolve your complaint.

 

CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY

We may change this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post these changes
in the policy and suggest you revisit periodically to stay informed of any
changes.
