This website uses Internet Protocol (IP) Addresses. An IP Address is a number assigned to your computer by your Internet service provider so you can access the Internet. Generally, an IP address changes each time you connect to the Internet (it is a "dynamic" address). Note, however, that if you have a broadband connection, depending on your individual circumstance, it is possible that your IP Address that we collect, or even perhaps a cookie we use, may contain information that could be deemed identifiable. This is because with some broadband connections your IP Address doesn't change (it is "static") and could be associated with your personal computer. We use your IP address to report aggregate information on use and to help improve the website.

Definitions

DPF Principles
Notice
Employees of client organizations are directed to our site through various methods, including email and paper invitations. The following standards apply to all data CustomInsight, LLC collects:
CustomInsight, LLC does not disclose any personal information, whether collected through its websites or transferred from a client contact, to any other third parties except as required by law or as authorized by the client. Please refer to Onward Transfer (below) for information regarding transfer of data to companies working on our behalf. We may also be directed to transfer data to additional vendors as directed by the client organization.
Onward Transfer
CustomInsight, LLC will not transfer personal information to any third party working on our behalf unless the third party agrees to be bound by the same principles and standards CustomInsight, LLC upholds. Prior to the disclosure of data to any third party working on our behalf, CustomInsight, LLC requires said third party execute a written Confidentiality and Non-disclosure Agreement (CNDA) . The CNDA sets forth the confidential nature of data collected and transferred and restricts the third party working on our behalf from releasing information to any other parties without CustomInsight, LLC's express written permission.
In some cases, CustomInsight, LLC may be directed to transfer data to additional vendors as directed by the client organization.
CustomInsight, LLC remains liable under the DPF Principles if the company's third-party Processor onward transfer recipients process relevant Personal Data in a manner inconsistent with the DPF Principles, unless CustomInsight, LLC proves that it is not responsible for the event giving rise to the damage.
Security
CustomInsight, LLC takes the following security precautions when storing/using personal information:
Data Integrity is of the utmost importance to CustomInsight, LLC. Any survey used to collect data on the CustomInsight, LLC systems has gone through extensive testing before survey launch to verify the data is being collected and reported correctly. Any files sent to CustomInsight, LLC by a client contact are checked for reasonableness to the extent possible. Ultimate responsibility for the reliability of data sent by a client contact lies with the client.
Access
Personal demographic information is provided to CustomInsight, LLC by some of our clients. Employees should contact their HR department to verify and update their personal information if not correct. Any data entered by a respondent is assumed to be correct. Individuals can change their answers prior to submitting a survey, but once a survey is submitted, the information collected is assumed to be correct.
Upon request, and once the request is sufficiently authenticated, CustomInsight will provide individuals with access to their personal information and provide them with the ability to correct, amend, or delete that information where it is inaccurate, or has been processed in violation of the Principles, except 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.
CustomInsight will not share your personal information with any third party or use your information in ways that are different from the original purposes for which they were gathered. Nevertheless, the DPF stipulates that individuals may choose whether their personal information is to be disclosed to a third party or to be used for a purpose that is materially different from the purpose(s) for which it was originally collected or subsequently authorized by the individuals. If an individual would like to opt out of these things, they can do so by contacting us through this web site or via email. In some cases, CustomInsight may need to take additional steps to authenticate the identity of the individual making the request.
Enforcement
CustomInsight, LLC is under the jurisdiction of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
CustomInsight, LLC acknowledges that enforcement of the DPF Privacy Principles is key to our commitment of privacy. Any complaints should be sent to the mailing address or email address above (see Notice). CustomInsight, LLC promises to fully investigate any and all complaints, and take appropriate action where necessary if violations of the DPF Privacy Principles are found. Any inquiries or complaints will be responded to in a timely manner, and a member of our staff will follow up on all issues to make sure they are handled appropriately. In the event that CustomInsight, LLC and the client cannot come to an agreement to resolve a dispute regarding HR data that is subject to this Privacy Policy, CustomInsight, LLC agrees to have the EU Data Protection Authorities serve as the recourse mechanism. For unresolved complaints regarding other types of data (non-HR data), the EU Data Protection Authorities will be used as the independent recourse mechanism.
CustomInsight, LLC has further committed to cooperate with EU data protection authorities (DPAs) and the Swiss FICOs with regard to unresolved DPF complaints concerning human resources data transferred from the EU or Switzerland in the context of the employment relationship. If you do not receive timely acknowledgment of your complaint from CustomInsight, LLC, or if CustomInsight, LLC has not addressed your complaint to your satisfaction, please contact the EU DPAs or the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner for more information or to file a complaint. The services of EU DPAs and Swiss FICOs are provided at no cost to you.
Human Resources information
Where a company in the EU or Switzerland transfers personal information about its employees (past or present) collected in the context of the employment relationship, to a parent, affiliate, or unaffiliated service provider in the United States participating in DPF, the transfer enjoys the benefits of the DPF framework. In such cases, the collection of the information and its processing prior to transfer will have been subject to the national laws of Switzerland or the EU country where it was collected, and any conditions for or restrictions on its transfer according to those laws will have to be respected.
The DPF Principles are relevant only when individually identified records are transferred or accessed. Statistical reporting relying on aggregate employment data and/or the use of anonymized or pseudonymized data does not raise privacy concerns.
