Privacy Policy Details

We are committed to protecting your privacy. For leading brains, the protection of not only personal but generally all data that flows through our platforms and services is the top priority. As a part of this effort, we process personal data in accordance with the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), and in accordance with the data protection regulations applicable to leading brains. 

 

7 Key Principles of the GDPR

The GDPR encourages businesses to be responsible about an individual’s data. By ensuring protection and privacy of this data, businesses earn customer trust and they are likely to engage better with the business. GDPR provides a framework for businesses to standardize and regularize real-world security and privacy needs of an individual’s data used for business purposes. The key principles which the GDPR requires businesses to operate on are:

1. Lawful, fair and transparent processing

Emphasizes transparency for all individuals i.e. when data is collected, businesses must be clear as to why data is being collected and what will it be used for.

leading brains uses opt-in only processes. When corporations are the client, individuals have a right to access their individual data at all times. 

2. Purpose limitation

Collect data, only for the purpose you need it for. That is, data collected for specific purposes/reasons cannot be further processed in a manner incompatible with those purposes/reasons.

leading brains uses separate systems with separate opt-in processes. For example, assessments require one opt-in and newsletter requires another opt-in.

3. Data minimization

Ensure data captured is adequate, relevant and limited. Based on this principle, organizations must ensure they store minimum amount of data required for their purpose. 

leading brains collects a minimum of demographic information for assessments. We only collect name and email address for marketing purposes and limit marketing cookies and data analytics.

4. Accurate and up-to-date processing

Data controllers must ensure information remains accurate, valid and fit for purpose. To comply, organizations must institute processes and policies to address how they maintain data they are processing and storing it.

leading brains runs standardized weekly, monthly and quarterly cleansing and data consolidation processes.

5. Limitation of storage in a form that permits identification

Have control over storage and movement of data within the organization. This includes implementing and enforcing data retention policies and preventing unauthorised movement and storage of data. 

leading brains only stores personalized data when this is relevant and necessary to perform our services. Data/statistical/psychometric analytics is run on anonymized data.

6. Confidential and secure

An organization collecting, and processing data is solely responsible for implementing appropriate security measures to protect the individual’s data.

leading brains only uses secure third-party tools that are GDPR compliant and exhibit the highest level of security.

7. Accountability and liability

Organizations must be able to demonstrate adoption of necessary steps to protect an individual’s personal data and be able to pull up every step within the GDPR strategy as evidence.

leading brains documents processes and operations carried out for data protection and security.

What third parties we receive data from

What automated decision making and/or profiling we do with user data

We consolidate your psychometric data into detailed personality reports. We give detail becasue we believe psychometric data should be used in refined ways and without boxing people into limited “types”.

Some of these report on potential for certain leadership positions. Again these are designed to guide awareness and discussion. We do not recommend that critical decisions are made on psychometric reports but used in conjunction with other processes. When used well personality reports provide win-win scenarios with indivduals better informed as well as the corporations that mandate these reports.
