This policy statement (the “Privacy Policy”) describes how we may collect and use personally identifiable information (“PII”), and the rights and choices available to our visitors and users regarding such information. The following Privacy Policy summarizes the PII gathering and use practices for drivehumancapital.com and any other website maintained by DRIVE (referenced collectively herein as the “Website”).

INFORMATION WE COLLECT

Un-identified and Non-Identifiable Information - Technical Information Gathered Automatically: When you browse our Website, you do so anonymously. Generic information from server logs is used to track the number of hits to the Website and to find out what types of browser software and operating systems visitors use.

​​

Individually Identifiable Information - Personal Information You Provide to Us: On various pages of the Website, you may provide information to us about yourself, such as your name, address, telephone number, and email address, including when you register, send a message, or request to join our mailing list(s). Requests to receive information or materials from DRIVE, involve the collection of your email address or postal address. Depending on the nature of your inquiry or activities on the website, we may also obtain employment history, education level, skills, references, background information, and other career information.​

 

Parts of the Website are informational in nature and publicly available to all users. Until you participate in surveys, chats, programs, or events; register; or request information from DRIVE, you are able to browse the Website anonymously without providing any PII. 

​

HOW WE USE YOUR INFORMATION

​​

Personal and Contact Information - DRIVE may use your personal and contact information to operate the Website and, in particular, facilitate the education, community, and networking capabilities of the Website; advertise its services or the goods and services of its members and third parties; create a personalized experience for you; provide you with news and information; and get in touch with you when necessary with respect to transactions conducted through the Website, respond to requests for information, communicate new job opportunities, provide career-related content, update on material changes in the Website’s policies and agreements, and market new products, tools, events or services DRIVE may offer. 

 

DRIVE may also share your contact information with DRIVE’s members, contractors, employees, clients, service providers, or business partners, as is necessary to provide DRIVE's services and information; for advertising purposes; to host, operate, or facilitate transactions through the Website, including, without limitation, registration for membership, events, or for internal business purposes, web hosting services, data reporting and analytics, legal services, accounting services, and marketing services. 

 

We submit your information to companies and individuals for consideration by our clients or our partner clients, for employment opportunities, only after receiving your explicit permission to release personal information in consideration for job opportunities and consent to represent you in the interview/consideration process.

 

Submitting an application to the online job board

 

In addition, DRIVE may supplement the PII collected from you with information from other sources, such as from business partners, in order to enhance DRIVE’s ability to provide or advertise its services or those of other entities or to otherwise tailor, manage, or operate the Website.

​​

Demographic Information - DRIVE may share demographic data on an aggregated basis—which will not identify any particular user—with DRIVE's members, partners, and affiliates, and for advertising or other technical or business purposes.

​​

Survey Results - DRIVE may share survey results collected through the Website with its business partners, members, and affiliates, and/or the general public, the news media, and with the U.S. government and state governments—not only for business or marketing purposes or as may be required by law, but also to participate in government programs and initiatives.

​​

Technical Information - DRIVE will use PII to facilitate educational opportunities, participation, or otherwise allow access to or use of certain information, tools, or features, and for improving the Website’s performance, usability, and design. DRIVE may also use technical information to help diagnose problems with DRIVE’s servers, analyze Website usage trends, track user movements on the Website, and to otherwise manage and monitor the Website.

​​

Business Transfers - Your PII may be transferred to another entity (either an affiliated entity or an unrelated third party) in connection with a merger, reorganization, dissolution, or similar corporate event. In the event a transaction of this kind occurs that results in the transfer of PII, DRIVE will notify you via email and/or place a prominent notice on the Website for 30 days of any such change in ownership or control and the possible changes to this Privacy Policy.

​

​Government and Legal Disclosures - We may disclose PII when legally required to do so in accordance with government requests, regulations, or legal proceedings. DRIVE may also disclose PII to protect against misuse or unauthorized use of the Website or as is otherwise required to limit legal liability, or to protect or defend the rights, property, or safety of DRIVE, DRIVE’s users, or others.

 

CHILDREN’S PRIVACY

​DRIVE cares about the safety of children on the Website and encourages parents and guardians to monitor their children’s use of the Internet. Although the Website is suitable for a general audience, this Website is intended for use only by users who are over 13 years of age. Accordingly, DRIVE does not knowingly solicit PII from children under the age of 13 and reserves the right to limit participation in particular activities on or through the Website to individuals above a certain age.

​​

COOKIES & COMPUTER-RELATED INFORMATION

​

DRIVE or its contractors may use cookies, web beacons, tags, log-in files, and/or other similar data collection or tracking techniques that are placed in your browser and allow us to recognize you each time you visit this Website to enhance and/or monitor your experience. Cookies and other related techniques are generally pieces of information, which DRIVE uses for record-keeping purposes and which the Website may transfer to us and/or your computer’s web browser for storage on our server(s) or your computer’s hard drive. Cookies and other related techniques enable DRIVE to manage and/or customize your experience on the Website, including available advertisements. Cookies and other related techniques also make web surfing or site review easier by automatically performing certain functions such as saving your personal preferences and by providing targeted content. DRIVE, however, will not use cookies to record passwords or credit card or other financial information. Many consider the use of cookies and such identifiers to be an industry standard measure. Consequently, your web browser is likely set to accept cookies or allow other identifiers. If you would prefer not to receive cookies or allow identifiers, however, you can alter the configuration of your browser to refuse cookies or surf anonymously. If you choose to have your browser refuse cookies or surf anonymously, you should understand that it is possible that some areas of our Website will not function properly when you view them.

​

EXTERNAL or 3rd PARTY RESOURCES

 

EXTERNAL OR THIRD-PARTY SITES. To the extent hyperlinks or gateways (whether through banner advertisements or otherwise) are utilized to access external or third-party sites, you should be aware that these external or third-party sites may collect PII and are not controlled by DRIVE and, therefore, are not subject to this Privacy Policy. DRIVE suggests that you check the privacy policies of these sites to determine how the proprietors of these third-party sites will utilize your PII.

 

THIRD PARTY CONTENT

​

COLLECTION OF INFORMATION BY THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES. We sometimes may offer content (e.g., promotions) that is sponsored by or cobranded with an identified third party. In these instances, the third party may obtain information that you voluntarily submit to participate in a site activity. We have no control over the third party’s use of this information. The Website will notify you at the time of information collection if a third party will obtain such information.

 

VOLUNTARY OPT-IN 

​

We may use the PII we collect from you to provide requested information or materials or to offer you products and services that may be of interest to you. If you would like to opt out of future promotional materials from us, you may indicate this preference by following the unsubscribe instructions at the end of such communications or by contacting us at info@drivehumancapital.com.

 

DATA SECURITY

​

We have implemented commercially reasonable technical and organizational security measures to protect PII that you submit to us and that is under our control against accidental loss, unauthorized access, misuse, disclosure, or alteration. Please be aware, however, that no method of data transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic data storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to protect your PII, we cannot guarantee the absolute security, integrity, and privacy of any or all information exchanged between you and us through the Website. We make no warranty—express, implied, or otherwise—that we will prevent unauthorized access to or use of your PII.

 

CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS

​

California Civil Code Section 1798.83 permits users of the Website who are California residents to request certain information regarding our disclosure of personal information to third parties for such third parties’ direct marketing purposes. To make such a request, please write to us at info@drivehumancapital.com.

​

GOVERNING LAW

​

This Privacy Policy shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the state of California. The Website and the servers that host the Website are located in the United States. Any information you provided will be transferred to the United States. By visiting and using the Website and submitting PII thereto, you therefore authorize this transfer of your PII to the United States. If any part of this Privacy Policy is determined to be invalid or unenforceable pursuant to applicable law, then the invalid or unenforceable provision or part will be deemed suspended by a valid, enforceable provision that most closely matches the intent of the original provision or part, and the remainder of this Privacy Policy shall continue in full force and effect.
