The information generated by the cookie about use of the Website (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers owned by Google. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google's behalf.

How we use personal information

First and foremost, Aris does not sell or rent your personal information.

In addition to processing transactions, responding to requests, and providing Assessment Information to Clients and/or other persons or entities you designate, Aris may use anonymous, aggregate statistics about our Users, traffic patterns, and related information for exploring business development, advertising, and marketing opportunities and for educational purposes.

Moreover, Aris may use de-identified information including Assessment Information for analytical and statistical purposes, as well as to present anonymous profiles of candidates to prospective employers who we believe are looking for particular capabilities. In the event a particular Client is interested in learning your identity, we will seek your explicit consent before disclosing any personally identifiable information about you to that Client.

By using our Website, you consent to the collection and use of your information by Aris as stated above. If we decide to change our Privacy Notice, we will post changes on this page and/or make other commercially reasonable efforts to make you aware of the changes made

We provide information to service providers under contract who help with our business operations.

We disclose information to law enforcement, governmental agencies, or authorized third parties, in response to a verified request relating to a criminal investigation or alleged illegal activity or any other activity that may expose us, you, or any other User to legal liability. In such events, we will disclose information that we believe to be relevant and necessary to the investigation or inquiry. Such information will be disclosed in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.

Additionally, we may disclose personal information in situations that we believe to be emergencies involving potential threats to the physical safety or any person or property if we believe that the information in any way relates to that threat.

In the event we are engaged in or contemplating a merger or other corporate acquisition with another business entity, personal information may be disclosed to and would likely be acquired by the other business entity. Such disclosure, if any, would be covered by an appropriate confidentiality agreement.

How we secure personal information

Aris is committed to protecting the security of your personal information. We use a variety of security technologies and procedures to help protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. While we have implemented reasonable security measures to safeguard personal information, please keep in mind that "perfect security" does not exist on the Internet.

If the Client requests that Aris remove this personal data, Aris will respond to their request within 30 business days of its receipt of such request.
