The response data for some activities may be stored and/or analysed and aggregated by staff residing in the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, Greece and India. Our staff, including contractors, are required to maintain the same privacy and data protection standards as required under the General Data Protection Regulation.

3. Overseas third parties

Some activities may originate from businesses based outside of your country of residence and accordingly, you agree to allow your activity response data to be provided to these businesses. When this happens, we may need to use third party hosting facilities located outside of your country of residence to ensure your information is constantly accessible and backed up in secure data storage facilities. We will ensure all third party hosting providers used are not permitted access to your information.

We may share your information with third parties to determine if these parties already hold information about you. We do this for the following purposes:
  • to seek your consent to add the information held by third parties to your PDI Opinion account; and
  • to determine if you qualify for an activity (for example for businesses who want to deploy a survey to individuals already on their database)

If the third party does not hold information about you, we ensure that the information we shared with them is destroyed.

How do we use the information we collect?

We are committed to providing a secure online environment to use PDI Opinion and have invested considerable resources to protect your information from loss, misuse, corruption and unauthorized access. More precisely, we have invested in:

  • A secure server software (SSL) technology to encrypt the transfer of all personally identifiable information
  • Firewalls that protect against unauthorized access of all of the data we collect and store

Due to the nature of the internet, it’s possible that information stored on our servers and data transmitted online can sometimes be accessed by unauthorized third parties. While we make significant investments to ensure that this risk is minimized, we cannot guarantee the information you provided us will never be compromised. By accepting this Privacy Policy, you acknowledge and accept these risks.
