This page sets out how MindWeaver (us) uses and protects your info when you are using the site.

What We Are Responsible For

Privacy means a lot to us. We are internet users, just like you, so we like to protect your personal info just like we would like to be protected. If we do ever ask for info about you by which you can be identified, it will only be in accordance with this policy.

Just like the website as a whole, our policy could be updated periodically and we are not required to inform you. If you are not happy with the policy or wish to know more, please get in touch. This policy is reviewed annually in January of any given year. This policy is effective from January 2020.

We don’t actually collect a lot of information. We collect non-identifiable info (as described in the Terms and Conditions) for analytical purposes such as improving our site. The only time we collect more is when you fill out the contact form. By filling out this form and submitting it, you are authorising us to hold that data and use it for supporting you and any work we may undertake with you. You can ask us to delete that information at any time. 

We never share your details or information. It’s your information, not ours. If someone (other than you) wants information about you, we will inform you that someone is asking for information about you. It is up to you if you how to follow up on that information. The only time we might share it without asking you first is if we are required to do so by law. We would tell you if that (unlikely) event happened unless, by law, we were not allowed to.

We might use your information to improve our services and products and so may get in touch from time to time, but only if this is important for supporting you and your services (e.g. market research). Inclusion on any newsletters is completely up to you and you can opt out at any time. We like to keep our clients up to date with industry news, offers and products we think you would benefit from (things that might improve your diversity and inclusion metrics). These emails may include links to 3rd party sites, for instance industry advice we feel you may benefit from. As such we suggest you stay opted “in”, but just let us know if you want to opt “out”. You can change your mind and opt in or out at any time, even if you previously opted in or out.

We have put in place suitable procedures, systems and processes to ensure that any information we collect on you is completely private and secure. Employees or industry contacts working on our behalf are required to complete mandatory training on our privacy policies and procedures. We collect written confirmation from every partner and employee that they both understand the policy and that they will comply with this policy. 

We perform due diligence on products, companies or services we use to support delivery of any work we do together that might use your personal information and will involved you are all times in this process. We will seek to only use companies that sign up to comparable or higher privacy standards and will inform you where this can not be met. 

We will support you in knowing where your information has be used publicly (such as on our website or in presentations) so that you are aware of where confidentiality may be broken. It is your choice to put your information in the public domain and as such will seek your authority to do so before conducting these activities.

What We Are Not Responsible For

We are not responsible for your data if you have shared it with other businesses through their website, even if that site was linked from ours. We do not control other sites and it is the owner of those sites to provide suitable privacy control. We can not be liable for any confidentiality breaches experienced by other sites, which are not covered by this privacy statement, as a result. Use precaution and review any privacy statements on other websites before committing to sending your personal sensitive information through those sites.
