AuctusIQ uses the Personal Information it collects in several ways. The summary below provides additional details about the ways we use the Personal Information we collect.

We use Personal Information to render Services to you and your employer. We do this to connect you with resources, coaching, and opportunities relevant to your needs.

In the course of our Recruitment Services, we may use Personal Information that we have collected to create a profile about you. This profile may be used to identify professional opportunities that we think may be of interest to you.

In the course of our hiring and recruitment, we also use your Personal Information to confirm references and conduct education and background checks as appropriate.

We may use Personal Information to conduct analytics and thought leadership materials. Any published product will refer only to larger aggregations of individuals and will not identify you personally or include any results attributable to you.

We may retain and use Personal Information about you for research, development, benchmarking and norms, validation, longitudinal studies, trend analysis, to improve and enhance our Services or to develop and market new Services.

Please note that if we obtained your Personal Information because of a consulting engagement with our client, or you are using our Products at the request of your employer, you will not receive marketing materials as a result of the Personal Information we obtained from those Services.

Who Has Access to Your Personal Information

How your Personal Information is disclosed will depend upon the situation.

We use your Personal Information to provide our Services. While providing our Services, we may disclose your Personal Information to your employer.

As a global organization, we may have affiliates and subsidiaries around the world.

Other Information We Collect

AuctusIQ collects other information that does not reveal your specific identity, such as:

Information collected through cookies, pixel tags, and other technologies
App usage data
Demographic information and other information provided by you
Aggregated information

Because Other Information does not reveal your specific identity, we may use it for any purpose.

If we combine Other Information with Personal Information that identifies you directly (like combining your name with your location), we will treat the combined information as Personal

Information for as long as it is combined.

If we are required to treat Other Information as Personal Information under applicable law, we may use and disclose it for the purposes for which we use and disclose your Personal Information as detailed in this Policy.
