Privacy Policy Statement

This Privacy Statement (the "Statement") sets out how Intellezy LLC (collectively “Intellezy”, “we” or “us”) collect and use the personally identifiable information of our website users, members, class attendees and other users of our websites and services (each a "User", "you", "your", etc.). By using our services and, where applicable, by providing consents for specific purposes, you consent to the use of your data as described in this Statement.

Collection of Personal Information

When you use our products and/or services, we collect personally identifiable information, such as your e-mail address, first and last name, position, employer details, home or work address or telephone number and other information. We also collect anonymous demographic information, which is not unique to you, such as your ZIP code, gender, preferences, interests, and favorites.

There is also information about your computer hardware and software collected automatically by us. This information can include your IP address, browser type, domain names, access times and referring website addresses. Additionally, our websites use cookies, web beacons and similar technologies to help you navigate our webpage and to collect information about the pages you view, the links you click and other actions you take when using our websites or services. We use this information for the operation of our business, to maintain quality of the services, and to provide general statistics regarding use of our websites.

Most of the above-mentioned information will constitute "Personally Identifiable Information' or "Personal Data", depending on the extent to which such information is protected by privacy or data protection laws in the relevant country. We do not collect or process “Sensitive Personal Data”, which includes data regarding your racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade union membership, genetic data, biometric data, criminal history, and data concerning your health, sex life, or sexual orientation. Please keep in mind that if you directly disclose Personally Identifiable Information or Sensitive Personal Data through our public discussion or message boards, this information may be collected and used by others.

When an individual engages with our website because their employer has signed up as a purchaser of our products or services, then:

  • the user’s employer is the data controller with respect to the user information it provides to us. This information typically includes first name, last name, and business email address. Where your employer is data controller in this way, we act as a data processor under data protection laws, meaning we use the information to provide a service to your employer;

  • Intellezy is the data controller for information provided directly by the individual or as a result of interacting with the website, including assessment data, a secondary email address, additional profile details such as job title, personal website URL, a short bio, social platform handles, and demographic information such as your gender, year of birth, and your work industry. To be clear, none of these additional profile details are required to utilize our Site, but we can offer you an enhanced experience if you provide it.

When an individual signs up as a user of the website via an individual plan, Intellezy is the data controller for all personal information provided by that user and collected by the website as the user accesses and uses it.
