Privacy Policy

What Data We Collect and Why

To better serve you and customize your experience, we collect various data types, including personal information like your name, contact info, and employment details. We also observe how you interact with our platform, such as the pages you visit and the searches you conduct. We combine this with third-party information to enhance our services, provide relevant content, and understand your preferences more accurately. Additionally, we may aggregate or anonymize your data, ensuring it cannot be linked back to you or your device. This anonymized data can be used for marketing, research, and other business-related purposes to support our operations.

Aggregated Data and Legal Collection Requirements

We utilize "Aggregated Data," which is statistical or demographic information formed by combining your Personal Information, but that does not directly or indirectly identify you. For instance, we might assess how many users interact with a specific feature through aggregated usage data. Such data is used freely for diverse purposes. If the law or contract obligates us to collect certain Personal Information from you and you withhold it, we may be unable to perform our contractual duties. As a result, service discontinuation may occur, and you accept this as a term of your use of our services.

Collecting Your Personal Data

• We gather Personal Data through various methods. While you browse our website, we may automatically collect both Personal and Non-Personal Data, including Technical and Usage Data related to your device and how you interact with the site. This data is collected through cookies, server logs, and other tracking technologies. Furthermore, if you visit other websites that implement our cookies or tracking tools, we may collect Technical and Usage Data from those sites as well. For further information, see our “Cookies and Similar Technologies” section.
• We also acquire Personal Data, including Technical and Usage Data, from third-party services such as analytics platforms. For clients, we may augment the Business Information they provide with additional data obtained from third parties. Similarly, Business and Contact Data about individuals who are not users may be gathered from third-party sources.
• At times, clients engage us to act on their behalf. In such cases, we handle Personal Data in accordance with their instructions and without a direct relationship with the individuals concerned.

If you wish to access or modify your Personal Data in these circumstances, we will supply contact details for the relevant client. In certain cases, we may help you directly with your request.

How Your Personal Data Is Used

Your personal data is utilized for a range of important reasons:

• To provide the services you request, processing and occasionally sharing your data with trusted third parties, partners, or vendors is necessary to deliver on our promises.
• When you reach out with questions or feedback, your information helps us respond promptly and effectively, ensuring a smooth experience. Without this data, assisting you would be limited.
• We process your personal data to detect prohibited or illegal conduct on our platform, enforce agreements with partners, and handle billing to maintain reliable service.
• Protecting all users is critical; your data helps us fight spam, malware, and security threats, improve our defence's, and verify identities for a safer environment.
• We use your data, along with tracking tools explained in our Cookie Policy, to offer personalized experiences and enable third-party integrations. Without these, some services or customizations may not function properly.

Should we use your data beyond these stated purposes, we will notify you so you can control how your information is managed. Limiting data use may reduce your access to some features.

Sharing and Disclosure of Your Information

We may provide your information to various parties to support our business functions, such as potential employers, third-party service providers, affiliates, legal authorities, and other related organizations. These parties are responsible for handling your data securely according to their own privacy standards. Additionally, disclosures may occur if required by law, to uphold our rights or user safety, or during business transactions like mergers or acquisitions.

Your Rights and Choices

Depending on the laws applicable in your area, you may have rights concerning your personal data, such as the right to access, correct, delete, or limit how your data is used. Please be aware that certain legal limitations or exceptions may apply. To exercise your rights, contact us at support@skillspindle.com. We will respond swiftly and in compliance with all relevant laws.

Links to Third-Party Websites

Our services may include links to external websites operated by third parties. These websites maintain their own privacy policies, which are independent of ours. Although we aim to link only to sites with strong privacy practices, we are not liable for their content, security, or privacy safeguards. We recommend reviewing the privacy statements of any third-party websites you visit via our links.

Security and Data Retention

Our company applies rigorous security controls to protect your personal data from unauthorized use, access, or alteration. These include physical, technical, and organizational safeguards. While we strive for the highest protection, no system can guarantee complete security. We keep your data only as long as necessary to provide services, fulfill legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Archived or cached copies may be retained temporarily.

Changes to This Policy

This Privacy Policy may be amended from time to time due to changes in regulations, technology, or company practices. The latest policy will be available on our platform, and we encourage you to review it periodically to stay informed about our data handling.
