Maritz has prepared this Privacy Policy to describe to you, or if you represent an entity or other organization, that entity or organization, (in either case, "you," "your," or "User") our practices regarding the personal information that Maritz collects, uses, and shares regarding our online informational platform (the "Platform") accessed through the website located at http://www.maritz.com, and any other websites operated by Maritz or its subsidiaries and divisions (each, a "Site") or using mobile applications provided by and on behalf of Maritz or its subsidiaries and divisions (each, an "Application," and each Site and Application treated as a part of the "Platform" for purposes of this Privacy Policy).  Capitalized terms not defined in this Privacy Policy, shall have the meanings as defined in the Maritz Terms of Use, located at: http://www.maritz.com/legal.

Maritz reserves the right, at any time, to modify this Privacy Policy.  If we make revisions that change the way we collect, use, or share personal information, we will post those changes in this Privacy Policy.  You should review this Privacy Policy periodically so that you keep up to date on our most current policies and practices.  We will note the effective date of the latest version of our Privacy Policy at the end of this Privacy Policy.

COLLECTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
Through your interactions with the Platform, Maritz collects "personal information," which is information that identifies an individual or relates to an identified individual.  Non-personal information means information that does not directly identify an individual.  We collect both types of information about you.

The following provides some examples of the type of data that we collect from you:

Context Types of Data and Purpose for Collection

Cookies We may use cookies and clear GIFs.  "Cookies" are small pieces of information that a website sends to your device while you are viewing a website.  Among other things, cookies allow us to provide you with a more personal and interactive experience and to improve our marketing efforts.  If you choose to disable cookies some areas or features of our websites may not work properly.
Demographic Information We may collect personal information from you, such as your age, photo, or location.
Digital Fingerprinting We may from time to time use digital fingerprinting technologies in an effort to protect and ensure the integrity of our Platform.  In general, digital fingerprinting technologies assign a unique identifier or "Machine-ID" to a user's computer to identify and track the computer's survey activity.  Maritz will not use digital fingerprinting technology to collect personal information, or track the online activities of the user of a computer, and will not disrupt or interfere with the use or control of a computer or alter, modify or change the settings or functionality of a computer.  The technology will analyze publicly available information and data obtained from the computer's web browser and from other publicly available data points, including without limitation the technical settings of the computer, the characteristics of the computer, and the computer's IP address, to create a unique identifier assigned to the computer.  The unique identifiers are typically alpha-numeric IDs and after creating the unique identifier, Maritz does not retain the information analyzed by the technology to create the unique identifier.
Geo-Location Information When you use one of our Applications or a badge or device provided by Maritz, we may collect your location using GPS, Wi-Fi, cellular technology, Radio-frequency identification (RFID), Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) beacon technology, or other similar location-tracking technologies.  Maritz may capture proximity and duration information for providing personalized products and services, demographic analysis, or behavioral analysis.  Such information, and any derived information, may be shared with third parties that have a relationship with Maritz.
Email Interconnectivity If you receive email from us, we may use certain tools to capture data related to when you open our message, click on any links or banners it contains and make purchases.

CROSS-BORDER TRANSFER OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
Maritz may transfer your personal information to Maritz's entities in the United States, or to third parties as described in this Privacy Policy that are located in various countries around the world.  By using Maritz's Platform, or providing any personal information to Maritz, where applicable law permits, you consent to the transfer, processing, and storage or such information outside of your country of residence where data protection standards may be different.  When Maritz collects information in one country, and transfers it to another, to the extent possible it applies the same level of data protection required under the laws in the first country even when the data is in the second country.

Maritz safeguards and enables the global transfer of personal information in a number of ways. The following describes some of the protections that are taken with regard to data originating from certain countries:

  • EU-U.S. Privacy Shield: Maritz adheres to the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield concerning the transfer of personal information from the European Union to the United States.  Accordingly, Maritz follows the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield Principles published by the U.S. Department of Commerce ("Privacy Shield Principles") with respect to all such data.  Maritz complies with the Privacy Shield Principles for all onward transfers of personal information from the EU, including the onward transfer liability provisions.  Maritz specifies in contracts with service providers that handle the personal information collected by Maritz that the personal information "may only be processed for limited and specified purposes consistent with" the purposes laid out in this Privacy Policy.  Those third parties agree to provide the same level of protection as the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield.  In certain situations, if a third party that receives personal information from Maritz takes an action that is contrary to the principles of the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield, Maritz will be liable for those actions unless it can prove that it was not responsible for causing them.  If there is any conflict between the terms in this Privacy Policy and the Privacy Shield Principles, the Privacy Shield Principles shall govern.  Compliance with the Privacy Shield Principles may be limited, however, in certain cases to the extent necessary to meet national security, public interest, or law enforcement requirements.  All Maritz personnel with access to personal information are obligated to familiarize themselves and comply with provisions of this Privacy Policy.  To learn more about the Privacy Shield program, and to view the Maritz certification, please visit https://www.privacyshield.gov/welcome and search for the Maritz subsidiary or division.  A violation of Maritz's commitment to EU-U.S. Privacy Shield may be investigated by the Federal Trade Commission.  With respect to personal information received or transferred pursuant to the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield, Maritz is subject to the regulatory enforcement powers of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION
In compliance with the Privacy Shield Principles, Maritz commits to resolve complaints about your privacy and our collection or use of your personal information.  EU individuals with questions or concerns about our use of personal information or our privacy policy should submit a written request to us using the information in the "Communications" section below.

If your question or concern is not satisfied through this process Maritz has further committed to refer unresolved EU-U.S. Privacy Shield complaints to JAMS, an independent dispute resolution provider located in the United States.  Information about how to file a complaint with JAMS related to our EU-U.S. Privacy Shield program can be found at https://www.jamsadr.com/file-an-eu-us-privacy-shield-or-safe-harbor-claim. The services of JAMS are provided at no cost to you.  Under certain circumstances, EU individuals may seek redress from the Privacy Shield Panel, a binding arbitration mechanism.

Maritz commits to cooperate with EU data protection authorities (DPAs) and comply with the advice given by such authorities with regard to human resources data transferred from the EU in the context of the employment relationship.
