Privacy Policy

Gestalt Diagnostics (“Gestalt”, “we”, “us” or “our”) is aware of our users’ concerns about their privacy when visiting our Platform and online resources. 

Our privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”) explains:

• What information we collect and why we collect it
• How we use that information
• The choices we offer, including how to access and update information.

This Privacy Policy applies to the gestaltdiagnostics.com website, including the other websites or applications we own and operate (the “Platform”), but does not apply to information collected offline or otherwise outside of the Platform.

Acceptance of Privacy Policy

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. If you do not agree with our policies and practices, your choice is not to use our Platform. 

BY USING THE PLATFORM, YOU CONSENT TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY AND TERMS OF USE AND OUR COLLECTION, USE, AND SHARING OF YOUR INFORMATION AND DATA, AND OTHER ACTIVITIES, AS DESCRIBED BELOW.

Changes to Privacy Policy

We may change this Privacy Policy from time to time. All changes are effective immediately when we post them. Your continued use of the Platform following the posting of the revised Privacy Policy means that you accept and agree to the changes. However, we will not (without your consent) use previously collected Personal Information in a manner materially different than represented at the time it was collected. 

What Information Does the Platform Collect? 

Personal Information and Demographic Information

When you visit the Platform, we may collect or ask you to provide us with:

• information that can be used to identify you personally, such as your first and last name, e-mail address, home address, social security or taxpayer ID number, date of birth, and/or banking information ("Personal Information");
• demographic information, such as information about your gender, education level, employer, and occupation (including applicable educational and professional credentials) (“Demographic Information”).

This information may be provided through various forms and in various places on the Platform, including account registration forms, contact us forms, or when you otherwise interact with the Platform. If we combine Demographic Information with the Personal Information we collect directly from you on the Platform, we will treat the combined data as Personal Information under this Privacy Policy. You are under no obligation to provide Personal Information, but if you elect not to provide it, you may be unable to use certain features of the Platform or to communicate with us via the Platform.

Platform Usage Information

When you visit the Platform, we and our service providers may use a variety of technologies that automatically or passively collect or store certain information ("Platform Usage Information") related to your activities on the Platform. Platform Usage Information may include:

• your IP address or other unique identifiers;
• your device functionality (e.g., browser, operating system, hardware, mobile network information);
• the URL that referred you to the Platform;
• the areas within the Platform that you visit and your activities there;
• your device location and characteristics; and
• certain other device data, including the time of day and other information.
• 
  

We and our service providers may use a variety of technologies to collect or store Platform Usage Information. These technologies may set, change, alter or modify settings or configurations on your device. These technologies may include, without limitation, cookies, tracking pixels, embedded scripts or similar technologies. 

Cookies. Cookies are small pieces of data stored and managed by your web browser that enable certain Platform features and functionality. Cookies and similar technologies can be used to recognize you and your device when you visit the Platform, remember your preferences, and make your interactions with the Platform faster and more secure. Cookies are a built-in feature of the Web, but they can generally be managed, disabled, or removed using most commercial web browsers. Each browser you use will need to be set separately and different browsers offer different functionality and options for cookies. Please be aware that if you disable or remove cookies on your device, some parts of the Platform may not function properly, and that when you revisit our Platform your ability to limit cookies is subject to your browser settings and limitations. To find out more about cookies, including how to see what cookies have been set and how to manage and delete them, visit allaboutcookies.org or aboutcookies.org.

Do Not Track Signals. Some web browsers may transmit “do not track” signals. At this time, we do not take steps to respond to such signals.

Third-Party Service Providers

Third-party service providers may use the above technologies with the Platform and may collect information about you, including Personal Information, without notice to you.

By using the Platform, you consent to potentially encountering third-party tracking technologies and accept that this Privacy Policy does not apply to the tracking technologies or practices of such third-parties. We are not responsible for any such third-party technologies or activities arising out of them. We are not responsible for the effectiveness of or compliance with any third party’s opt-out options. 

Interactions with Third-Party Sites

The Platform may include functionality that allows certain kinds of interactions between the Platform and your account on a third-party website or application. The use of this functionality may involve the third-party operator providing certain information, including Personal Information, to us. For example, you may have the option to use your Facebook, Google or other account provided by a third-party site or application to facilitate the registration and log-in or transaction process on the Platform. If we offer and you choose to use this functionality to access the Platform, the third-party site or application may send Personal Information about you to the Platform. If so, we will then treat it as Personal Information under this Privacy Policy, since we are collecting it as a result of your accessing of and interaction on our Platforms. You should review the applicable third-party privacy policies before using such third-party tools on our Platform, and we are not responsible for these parties’ practices.

Children

The Platform does not offer products or services to children and we do not knowingly collect any Personal Information from children younger than the age of 13. We will delete any Personal Information collected that we later determine to be from a person younger than the age of 13. 

How Do We Use The Information Collected?

We may use your Personal Information, Demographic Information and/or Platform Usage Information:

• to qualify you for programs and projects you may be eligible to participate in;

We may, as part of this recruitment process, collect information about your education, employment history and similar matters. Where this Personal Information or Demographic Information is considered to be sensitive, you expressly consent to our processing of this information for recruitment purposes by submitting it to us. However, we will not sell or rent your Personal Information to anyone.

Sharing of Personal Information with Third-Parties

We may share Personal Information with third-parties under various circumstances, including as described in more detail below. We do not, however, share your Personal Information with third-parties for those third-parties’ marketing purposes.

When You Request Information From or Provide Information to Third-Parties

You may be presented with an option on the Platform to receive certain information directly from third-parties or to have us send certain information to third-parties or give them access to it. In these instances, your Personal Information and other information may be disclosed to third-parties and all the information you disclose will be subject to the privacy policies and practices of such third-parties. In addition, third-parties may store, collect or otherwise have access to your information when you interact with their tracking technologies, content, tools, apps, or ads on the Platform or link to them from our posting or content sharing tools. We are not responsible for the privacy policies and practices of such third-parties and therefore you should review their privacy policies prior to requesting information from or otherwise interacting with them.

We may share Personal Information with our partners and customers in connection with the programs and projects that you may be eligible for or participate in. We may also share Personal Information with third-parties who perform services on our behalf.

We may also disclose and transfer Personal Information to third-parties if we have a good-faith belief that access, use, preservation or disclosure of the information is reasonably necessary to:

• meet any applicable law, regulation, legal process or enforceable governmental request;
• enforce the Platform’s Terms of Use, including investigation of potential violations;
• detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues; and/or

We may also share non-personally identifiable information, such as Platform Usage Information, aggregated user statistics, and anonymous information derived from Personal Information (such as de-identified user information), with third-parties for any purpose.

In addition, we may share information we have collected about you, including Personal Information, with your consent or as disclosed at the time you provide the information or as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy.

Third-Party Content and Links on the Platform

The Platform may contain content that is supplied by third-parties and those third-parties may collect Platform Usage Information when pages from the Platforms are served to you. In addition, when you are on the Platform you may be directed to other sites operated and controlled by third-parties that we do not control. We are not responsible for the data collection and privacy practices used by any of these third-parties or their sites. We encourage you to note when you leave the Platform and to review the third-party privacy policies of all third-party locations and exercise caution in connection with them.

Your Access To and Control Over Personal Information

You are responsible for maintaining the accuracy of the information you submit to us, such as your contact information provided as part of registration. The Platform may allow you to review, modify, correct or update Personal Information you have provided through the Platform’s settings interface or otherwise, and you may provide registration updates and changes by contacting us at the email address or phone number below. At any time, you may also contact us at the email address or phone number below to ask that we remove your name, contact information, and email address from our databases. We will make good faith efforts to make any requested changes or removals in our then active databases as soon as reasonably practicable.

It is not always possible to completely remove or delete all of your information from our databases and that residual data may remain on backup media or for other reasons. When you edit your Personal Information, information that you remove may persist internally for our administrative purposes. Note that if you request us to delete or remove any data, you may be unable to use certain features of the Platform or to communicate with us via the Platform. Further, we may not accommodate a request to change information if we believe the change would violate any law or legal requirement or cause the information to be incorrect.
