Choice

Data subjects have the right to opt out of (a) disclosures of their Personal Data to third parties not identified at the time of collection or subsequently authorized, and (b) uses of Personal Data for purposes materially different from those disclosed at the time of collection or subsequently authorized.

When OMG is contracted by its customers to provide assessment services, OMG's customers are responsible for informing Data Subjects of when they have the right to opt out of such uses or disclosures. Data Subjects who wish to limit the use or disclosure of their Personal Data should submit that request to OMG's customers that control the use and disclosure of their Personal Data.

OMG will cooperate with its customers' instructions regarding Data Subjects' choices. This opt-out does not apply to disclosures to service providers who process information on our behalf to help us operate and improve our services.

Comment protégeons-nous vos informations?

Nous mettons en œuvre une variété de mesures de sécurité pour maintenir la sécurité de vos informations personnelles lorsque vous passez une commande ou saisissez, soumettez ou accédez à vos informations personnelles.

We offer the use of a secure server. Information transmitted to our site is protected using industry-standard encryption in transit (TLS). Access to personal information is limited to authorized personnel and service providers who require access for business purposes and who are subject to confidentiality obligations.

Combien de temps conservons-nous vos informations?

The organizations who contract our assessment services determine the length of time that data will be retained, and OMG will respect and enforce any retention guidelines specified by these organizations. OMG also retains personal information only for as long as necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Notice, unless a longer period is required or permitted by law. In many cases, in the case of current employees, it is important for these organizations to have access to your assessment data for a period of many years, in order to view or demonstrate how your abilities have changed over a period of time. In the case of candidates for employment, a long period of time may pass between an individual completing an assessment and actually being hired, and again that information may need to be compared to establish skill progression over a period of many years. Please note that you can exercise your rights to remove your personal information from our systems, as described in this Privacy Policy, at any time.

Where feasible, OMG periodically reviews retained information and deletes or de-identifies personal information when it is no longer needed for the purposes for which it was collected.

Identifier votre contrôleur de données

For the purposes of data privacy law, including GDPR, the data controller is the party that controls how your data is being used. As a contracted assessment provider, Objective Management Group is acting as a data processor, not a data controller. In other contexts (such as website inquiries, newsletter sign-ups, and requests for information), Objective Management Group may act as a data controller. Since some rights may need to be exercised with the data controller, you have a right to know the identity of the data controller. To obtain the identity of the data controller, please email us at support@objectivemanagement.com and include the alphanumeric PIN you were provided when starting your assessment (this was also emailed to you in the form of a link).

Vos droits

While OMG does not have a business location within the European Union or directly market / sell to European Union individuals or businesses, in some cases we serve as a processor or sub-processor of personal information for data controllers located in the European Union. Therefore, we are committed to respecting your applicable rights as they pertain to personal information.

Please note that your rights must also be balanced with the rights of other parties, including the organizations which contract our assessment services. This includes, for example, those parties protecting their legitimate interests as they pertain to understanding your strengths and weaknesses which are measured by our assessments.

Vos droits peuvent inclure les éléments suivants:

Droit d'accès - Sur demande, nous confirmerons les informations personnelles que nous détenons à votre sujet. Veuillez noter que nos questionnaires sont la propriété intellectuelle protégée par le droit d'auteur et ne sont pas considérés comme faisant partie de vos informations personnelles.
Right to Rectification - Upon request, we will rectify any incorrect "demographics" we hold about you. This would include, for example, your name and email address. In most cases, your information is processed immediately upon its submission, and passed on to the organization which contracted our assessment services. Therefore, in addition to correcting our own records, we will forward the correction to the data controller. Note that your right to rectification does not give you the right to change how you answered questions, as doing so would infringe upon the rights of the organization which contracted our services to have trustworthy, unaltered answers.
Droit à l'effacement - Vous pouvez nous contacter pour demander la suppression de vos informations personnelles identifiables de nos bases de données. Veuillez noter que, dans la plupart des cas, vos informations ont déjà été partagées avec l'organisation qui a contracté nos services, de sorte que votre demande sera également transmise au responsable du traitement et soumise à leurs politiques d'effacement des données.
Droit à la restriction du traitement - Si vous nous avez soumis des informations personnelles mais qu'elles n'ont pas encore été traitées et envoyées au responsable du traitement, vous pouvez demander que nous ne traitions pas vos informations. Nous encourageons les utilisateurs à demander à la place que vos informations soient effacées, afin de garantir qu'aucun traitement ne puisse avoir lieu.
Droit à la portabilité des données - Comme il n'y a pas de norme de l'industrie pour la transmission des données d'évaluation, il nous est difficile de vous fournir une copie de vos informations qui peut être réutilisée ailleurs. Cependant, nous respectons votre droit d'obtenir une copie de vos informations et vous enverrons une copie au format XML des informations personnelles - informations qui vous identifient personnellement - que vous nous avez fournies sur demande.

All requests to exercise your rights will be addressed without undue delay, and within 30 days. To exercise any of your rights, please contact our customer service team at support@objectivemanagement.com. Please note that we will need to confirm your identity via a two-way email exchange.
