  • If you complete surveys that we use for research purposes, we will hold the information you provide
  • If you are using the Application: The Application allows you to play Games through which we collect information about your game-play in order to identify and give you feedback on your behavioural and personality strengths (“Traits”). Our Services may provide you with information about your Traits as well as information about how your Traits rank compared to other users (collectively, “Results”). The Traits of other users are only presented in aggregate form; users of the Games are not individually identified to other users by their results.

During the period of time for which you will be playing the game, we may take images using your phone for the purpose of proctoring and user verification which will also be shared with that business. We are not responsible for the manner in which any such business uses such information. They should have provided you with their own data policy in respect of their use of your Personal Information
  • When you contact us by sending us an e-mail or when you use any of our contact forms, we will collect any information that is contained in (and/or attached to) your e-mail, text message, or that you enter into such forms.
