State-Specific Privacy Policy

Document Retention  

We do not retain your personal information for longer than reasonably necessary to accomplish the purpose for which it was collected. How long we retain your information is based on the nature of your relationship with us, how long your personal information is needed to provide our products or services or operate our business, the type of personal information, and legal considerations. 

Where applicable you may request:

  • Access to personal information that we maintain about you. You can ask us for copies of your personal data and for information about who has access to your personal information. Exceptions apply, for example, you may not receive all the personal information we process if it also includes others’ personal data.  
  • Where technically feasible, that we transfer the personal information you gave us to another organization or give it to you (“Portability”).  
  • Correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal information.  
  • Deletion of your personal information (exceptions apply).  

The instructions for submitting requests pursuant to applicable laws in California, Delaware, Maryland, and Texas are below. Please note that these means are only for use by consumers in these states and for which we have collected information on our own behalf. If we received your information solely during the course of providing services to another entity, such as a healthcare professional, your employer, or a career advisor, all requests should be directed to the entity or individual on whose behalf we collected or used the data (e.g., your psychologist, employer, career advisor, etc.). We will not discriminate against you if you choose to exercise any of your privacy rights under this Privacy Policy. To the extent that we use deidentified information as that term is defined under applicable U.S. law, we commit to maintaining and using the information in deidentified form and will not to attempt to reidentify the information, except as permitted under the applicable law.  

How to submit a request to know, access, correct or delete?

What happens after you submit a request to know, access, correct or delete? 

Following a request to know, access, correct or delete your personal information, we must first verify your identity. We will take commercially reasonable steps to verify your identity, including verifying you via your current account with us or asking you to provide us with information matching the information we have in our files, such as your most recent purchase with us or credit card security code. If you are a California resident and wish to designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf, please indicate that when submitting your request, in which case we will require verification of both you and your agent’s identity and the agent’s authority to make a request on your behalf. 

We will make good faith efforts to provide you with additional information or access to your personal information, correct, or delete it when you request it, but there may be circumstances in which we need not comply with your request. For example, we are not required to delete personal information needed to provide a service we are contracted to provide (such as our assessment services), to detect fraudulent or illegal activity, for bookkeeping or tax purposes, or for legal purposes. Also, we are not required to correct, provide additional information, access, or delete personal information where your identity could not be verified, where the information is protected health information governed by the Confidentiality of Medical Information Act or the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 and Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act, where the information would compromise others’ privacy or other legitimate rights, like intellectual property rights, or where the information contains legally privileged material. If we determine that your request should be restricted in any particular instance, we will provide you with an explanation of why that determination has been made and a contact point for any further inquiries. 

Any requests that can be processed by us will be done so in no more than 45 days from the date we receive your request, unless we notify you that an extension is required. In case of an extended completion period, we will process your request in no more than 90 days from the date of your original request.
