We collect information to deliver personalized leadership development experiences and improve our Services.

a. Information You Provide Directly

• Account Information: Name, email address, password, company or organization affiliation, and optional profile information (e.g., role, department).
• Assessment Responses: Answers and scores from self-assessments, quizzes, or surveys.
• Journal Entries and Reflections: Text responses or uploads you provide in journaling, prompts, or discussion tools.
• Program Data: Participation records, completion status, and progress tracking.
• Communications: Messages or emails you send to us for support, inquiries, or feedback.
• Payment Information: If you purchase a product or program directly, we process payments securely through third-party providers (we do not store full payment card details).

b. Information Collected Automatically

• IP address, browser type, device information, referring URLs, and session data.
• Cookies or similar technologies to remember preferences and analyze site traffic.

c. Information from Third Parties

If your organization invites you to participate in a company-sponsored program, we may receive limited identifying information (such as your name, email, and cohort assignment) from your employer or program administrator.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to:

• Create and manage your account;
• Deliver leadership assessments, prompts, and personalized insights;
• Track learning progress and generate reports for your personal use or organizational feedback (if applicable);
• Facilitate journal entries, cohort discussions, and program participation;
• Analyze usage trends and improve our content, platform, and user experience;
• Communicate with you regarding program updates, invitations, and feedback opportunities;
• Enforce our Terms of Use and comply with applicable laws.

We do not sell your data or use your personal reflections or journal entries for marketing without your explicit consent.

3. How We Share Information

We only share your information under the following circumstances:

a. With Your Organization or Program Administrator

If you are enrolled in a company or cohort program, your administrator may have access to limited participation data (e.g., completion rates, aggregated or anonymized insights).

Personal reflections, journal entries, and open-ended responses are private and are not shared with employers or other participants unless you explicitly choose to share them.

b. With Trusted Service Providers

We use third-party partners (e.g., Supabase, hosting, analytics, email delivery, payment processing) to operate our Services. These providers are contractually required to safeguard your data and only use it for authorized purposes.

c. For Legal or Business Reasons

We may disclose information if required by law, to protect our legal rights, or during a merger, acquisition, or reorganization.

4. Data Ownership and Control

You retain ownership of your content (e.g., assessments, journals, reflections). By submitting it, you grant The Collective Rise permission to store, process, and display it within the platform to deliver program functionality.

You may request deletion of your account or any of your submitted data at any time by contacting privacy@thecollectiverise.com.

5. Cookies and Analytics

We use cookies to enhance functionality, remember preferences, and analyze performance. You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings.

We may use analytics tools (e.g., Google Analytics) to understand how visitors interact with the platform, but these tools only collect aggregated, non-identifiable information.

6. Data Retention

We retain personal information as long as needed to provide our Services and fulfill program objectives.

When your program concludes or your account is deleted, we will either delete your data or anonymize it for research and performance benchmarking purposes.

7. Data Security

We use encryption, access controls, and secure storage systems to protect your data.

While no system is completely secure, we regularly review and update our practices to maintain a high standard of protection.

8. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

• Access or download a copy of your personal data;
• Correct or delete your information;
• Withdraw consent to data processing;
• Request data portability;
• File a complaint with a data protection authority.

To exercise these rights, email us at privacy@thecollectiverise.com. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe.

9. Children's Privacy

Our Services are not intended for individuals under 16. We do not knowingly collect information from children, and will delete any such data if discovered.

10. International Users

If you access our Services from outside the United States, please note that your data may be processed and stored on servers in the U.S. or other jurisdictions that may not provide the same level of data protection as your country.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. The updated version will be posted on this page with a new "Last Updated" date. Continued use of our Services after changes indicates your acceptance.
