WORKWEEK

Workweek Privacy Policy

Last Updated: September 10, 2024

Previous version: Workweek.com | Safe Space | Board Room (we previously maintained separate policies for some of our Sites, which have been consolidated into the current version below).  

Welcome

At Workweek, we recognize and respect your privacy.  This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use and disclose personally identifying information (“personal information”) gathered through the Services. 

This Workweek “Privacy Policy” applies to our various websites, applications and services, such as Workweek (at https://workweek.com/), Board Room (at https://hospitalogy.com/community/board-room/), and Safe Space (at https://hateithere.co/community/safe-space/) (each a “Site” and collectively the “Services”), which are owned and operated by Workweek Media Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Workweek,” “Company”, “we”, “our” or “us”). 

This Privacy Policy applies to personal information we process under our contract with you, which includes the Workweek Terms of Use and any Subscriber Agreement you’ve entered into (collectively, as applicable, the “Terms”).  Where a Data Processing Agreement applies to personal information, it controls over anything to the contrary in this Policy.  Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Privacy Policy are defined in the Terms that apply to you. 

Updates to this Policy

As our Sites change, we update this policy to reflect our current practices, as indicated by the Last Updated date above. If we intend to use your personal information in a way that is materially different from the ways described at the time of collection, we will notify you before the material changes to this Privacy Policy take effect, so you have time to review them. If we have your contact information (such as your email or phone number), we will notify you that way. We may also post a temporary notice on the Services, or notify you by other means when required by law.

You should check here periodically to review the current Privacy Policy, which is effective as of the Last Updated date above.  Your use of the Services and submission of any information, including personal information, to us constitutes acceptance and understanding of this Privacy Policy. 

How to Contact Us

We encourage your questions and comments about any privacy concerns.  Please direct them to us by an email to the following: [email protected].

When this Policy Applies 

This Privacy Policy applies personal information we collect from users of the Services, effective as of the Last Updated date above.  However, some collection and use of information falls outside this Policy:

• Third-party services:  This Privacy Policy does not apply to any information you may exchange with third party providers.  If you follow a link to a third-party website, your use of that website is governed by that website’s privacy policy and is not covered by this Privacy Policy.

• Our personnel: If you are a current or former employee or contractor of ours, this Privacy Policy does not apply to you.  Reach out to your human-resources partner or supervisor with any inquiries about your personal information.  We will also route your request if you contact us.

• When we don’t control your information:  If we receive or process your information in our role as a processor (an entity which processes data at the direction of a controller) to another business acting as a controller (the entity which decides how and why your data is processed, such as an employer), our agreement with the controller governs our use of your information.  For example, where a Subscriber Agreement encompassing a Data Processing Agreement applies, the personal information we process on behalf of our Customer, as the controller, governs Workweek’s processing of that information, not this Policy.  We store such data until instructed to delete it by the controller.  We will refer your questions, requests or concerns to the controller.Information collected & why we use it

We retain your information only as long as we need it for the purposes described above, except when longer retention is required by our compliance policies and efforts toward applicable legal, tax, accounting and regulatory requirements. How long we need information for those purposes varies by category, and even within categories.  These retention determinations always consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal information, the potential risk of harm from its unauthorized use or disclosure, and whether we can achieve those purposes without using the personal information. 

• Information we disclose to others

We may share or disclose personal information to third parties for the following purposes:

• To third parties in aggregated, or non-personally identifying, forms of information about our Services users for marketing, advertising, research or other reasonable business purposes;

• In response to a subpoena or other legal process by a governmental entity or third party, or if otherwise required by law;

• To provide products or services requested.

Disclosures for legal reasons

We may disclose personal information: 

• In response to subpoenas, court orders, or other legal process; to establish or exercise our legal rights; to defend against legal claims; or as otherwise required by law.  In such cases we reserve the right to raise or waive any legal objection or right available to us;

Disclosures with your consent or at your request

We may periodically ask for your consent to disclose your information to third parties.  Whenever we ask your consent for this reason, we will summarize the purpose and scope of the disclosure.  For example, we may offer discounts to you if you consent to join our mailing list or participate in a promotion involving direct marketing communications.  

• In those cases, the Services will display a tickbox near an email-entry field explaining that by submitting your information, you agree to share your email with the content provider.
• To be clear, we only exchange information about you with third parties for direct marketing purposes if you opt in, and will only do so until you opt out.

 

Children’s Privacy

We do not knowingly collect, maintain, or use personal information from children under 16 years of age, and no parts of our Services are directed to children.  If you learn that a child has provided us with personal information in violation of this Privacy Policy, then you may alert us at [email protected].

• Your rights

As a user of the Services, you have rights and choices about your personal information.  We want you to be in control of your information, so we want to remind you of the following options and tools available to you:

• Content opt-outs:  you may opt-out of any newsletters or promotional communications from us by following the unsubscribe instructions in the communication you receive. We may continue to send you communications regarding the Services, such as notices about administrative updates, transaction reports, and changes to the Services, this Policy or the Terms.

• Exercising rights:  To exercise rights under Local Privacy Laws, see Requesting information.

• Disallowing Location Data Collection: When you access certain Services, such as through a mobile device, you may consent to share your general (imprecise) geolocation with us so we can customize your experience and attribute activity to you.  You may change your location sharing settings at the browser or device level at any time.

• Personalized ads:  For more about targeted advertising, and how to opt out with your specific browser and device, go to the DAA Webchoices Browser Check and NAI Opt Out of Interest-Based Advertising. You can download the AppChoices app to opt out in mobile apps

Requesting information 

Please follow these instructions to send us a request under the Local Privacy Laws where you live:

Submitting requests

To exercise any rights described in this Policy, please contact us.  Your request must:

• provide sufficient information to identify you and the law that applies to you, such as your name, e-mail address, home or work address, or other information we maintain.  

• not include social security numbers, driver’s license numbers, third-party account numbers, credit or debit card numbers, or health information.

Verifying requests

We verify requests by first confirming the source of the request and then by matching the information submitted to the information we maintain.  If your request is unclear or we are unable to authenticate your identity, we will respond with direction on how to remedy the deficiencies, in accordance with law that applies to you.  

If we cannot verify the identity of the individual making the request, we may deny it, in full or in part.

Responses to requests 

We will respond to your request as quickly as we can, considering the nature of your request and the volume of pending requests.  The content of our response will vary with the nature of your request, but will always respond in accordance with any deadlines or requirements specified by the laws that applies to you.

Under certain circumstances, we may be unable to provide responsive personal information, such as when disclosure would create a substantial, articulable and unreasonable risk to the security of the information, customers’ account with us, or the security of our systems or networks.  We do not disclose account passwords or any other non-personal information that enables access to an account.

Please understand, however, that we reserve the right to retain an archive of any deleted information, to the extent permitted by law.  We may also retain deidentified or aggregate data derived from information about you.

Appealing decisions

Residents of California, Colorado, Connecticut, and Virginia may appeal a decision we have made regarding their requests by contacting us.

• Local privacy laws

The Services operates from the United States, but this Policy applies worldwide.  Our practices generally do not differ based on your location, but your rights and choices depend in part on the law where you live.  If any of the location-specific sections below apply to you, those sections override any contrary descriptions elsewhere in the Policy as they relate to you.  If you have questions about your rights under other data privacy laws, please contact us.  

 

U.S. residents in states with modern consumer privacy laws

If you are a resident of California and interact with us as a consumer, you have certain rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act or “CCPA” (Cal.  Civ.  Code § 1798.100 et seq.), including to request access to and deletion of your personal information (as defined in the CCPA). You may exercise these rights by contacting us at [email protected].  We do not sell your personal information, but we may allow our advertising partners to collect certain device identifiers and electronic network activity that allows them to show ads within their systems that are targeted to your interests.  

The categories of personal information we collect depend on how you use the Services.    They’re generally described under Information collected & why we use it.  Those lawful bases map to these CCPA purposes:

• Commercial purposes: At times, the reason we process your information to advance your economic interests or our economic interests.  These purposes include performing the contract that you have with us, as embodied by our Terms, which advance our economic interests and yours.  For instance, if you order products from us, we use your information to complete your payment and provide your product to you.  
• Business purposes: Most often, we process your information for operational reasons, in a reasonably necessary and proportionate manner (i.e., for business purposes under CCPA).  For instance, we analyze behavior on our services to continuously improve our offerings, suggest Listings or Job Seekers that may interest you and promote our own services, we process information to help keep our accountholders safe and we process data where necessary to enforce our rights, assist law enforcement and enable us to defend ourselves in the event of a legal action.
• Comply with applicable laws and regulations: We also process your information as described above where necessary for us to comply with applicable laws and regulations and evidence our compliance with applicable laws and regulations.  For example, we retain traffic data and data about transactions in line with our accounting, tax and other statutory data retention obligations and to be able to respond to valid access requests from law enforcement.  
• Consent: From time to time, we may ask for your consent to collect specific information, such as your precise geolocation, or use your information for specific reasons, like messaging your email address or phone number for direct marketing purposes.  In general, you may withdraw your consent by changing your settings (such as browser or device settings) or following instructions provided with information we send you on a consent basis (such as clicking ‘unsubscribe’ in any email or replying ‘STOP’ to any text we send you).  You may always withdraw your consent at any time – just contact us.

For clarity, we have collected personal information for these CCPA categories of business and commercial purposes in the last twelve months:

• Advertising and Marketing
• Error Management
• Internal Research
• Provide Products or Services
• Quality Assurance
• Security
• Short-Term Transient Use
• We also "share" and "sell" (as defined in the CCPA) personal information for commercial purposes, including to advertise and market our products.

Under CCPA, California consumers have the following rights:

• Rights to Know, Access, Correct and Delete.

You have the right to request that we disclose, correct and delete personal information about you that we have collected.  Your right to know includes the personal information we have sold or shared or disclosed for a business purpose or a commercial purpose.  

Finally, we may deny deletion requests, in whole or in part, with respect to information we reasonably need to:

• comply with legal obligations;
• allow you, other consumers, or us to exercise free-speech rights or other legal rights;
• complete an obligation that you have requested (for instance, if a product you purchased carries a warranty or could reasonably be subject to recall under applicable law); or
• if we use the information only for internal purposes reasonably aligned with consumer expectations.

• Rights to Limit and Opt-Out of Sharing/Sale 

You also have the right to direct us (1) not to share or sell your personal information and (2) limit our disclosure and use of your sensitive personal information to purposes necessary to provide the Services to you.  

• To opt out of the sharing of your information, please use our Data Request Form or the ‘Do Not / Share My personal information’ link on our homepage 

• To exercise your right to limit our disclosure and use of your sensitive personal information, please use our Data Request Form or the ‘Limit Use of my Sensitive Info’ link on our homepage.

As of the Last Updated date, we have no knowledge of any use of personal information we collect from individuals under the age of 18 for ‘sale’ or ‘sharing’ purposes.

• Right of No Retaliation

CCPA prohibits us from discriminating against you if you exercise rights under CCPA, except when you opted in to a financial incentive involving certain of your personal information, and subsequently restrict our use of that personal information through a CCPA rights request.  

• For example, if we offer you a discount code for consenting to receive marketing emails, and you then require us to delete your email address, we may not honor that discount code.

Your right of no retaliation doesn’t need to be exercised.  We never retaliate against anyone exercising their rights under this Policy or CCPA.

• Request process for CCPA rights

To submit a CCPA request relating to the foregoing rights, please use our Data Request Form or contact us with ‘California Privacy Rights Request’ in the subject line of your email or the beginning of your letter.  The process described under Requesting information generally applies to requests to exercise CCPA rights.  However, in addition:

• A California resident’s authorized agent may submit CCPA rights request. 
  • Requests submitted by an authorized agent will still require verification of the person who is the subject of the request in accordance with the process described below.  We will also ask for proof that the person who is the subject of the request authorized an agent to submit a privacy request on their behalf. 
  • An authorized agent that has power of attorney pursuant to California Probate Code section 4121 to 4130 must submit proof of statutory power of attorney, but consumer verification is not required. 
• We will acknowledge your request within 10 days, and our goal is to fulfill your request within 45 days.  However, we may you that we will require up to 45 further days to fulfill your request, along with an explanation of why our response is delayed.  
• We provide responses in the manner we receive your request (i.e., with an email response to an email request).

• Other California law

Because we only give your information to third parties for direct marketing purposes with your consent, and always allow you to opt out of direct marketing communications after opting in, we believe we are not currently required to comply with California Civil Code Section 1798.83.  

 

‍International Users

If you are accessing the Services from outside the United States and are providing your information directly to Workweek (i.e. Workweek is serving in a data controller role for your personal data), you are consenting to and authorizing the transfer of your information to the United States for storage, use, processing, maintenance and onward transfer of such information to other entities, regardless of their location, in accordance with this Privacy Policy and the other applicable Terms.  For clarity, and as outlined in the Terms, you are also consenting to the application of United States law in all matters concerning the Services.

Personal data collected from the European Economic Area, UK and Switzerland and processed by Workweek as a data controller will, for example, be transferred to and processed by us in the United States or another country outside of the European Economic Area, UK or Switzerland.  In such instances, we shall ensure that the transfer of your personal data is carried out in accordance with applicable privacy laws and, in particular, that the transfer is consistent with an approved transfer mechanism, such as the Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the EU Commission.

Data subjects from the European Economic Area and the UK are entitled to certain rights with respect to their personal data, including the right to access, from the data controller, any personal data being processed, and to obtain more information on the purpose of processing, categories of data being processed, sharing with third parties, and other information.  Workweek serves as data controller for personal data of Workweek’s personnel, applicants, and business contacts.  Data subjects for whom Workweek serves as data controller can limit Workweek’s use and disclosure of their personal data in a variety of ways depending on the circumstances.  These choices may include selecting what data to share with Workweek, requesting Workweek delete data, and opting out of marketing correspondence.

Rights under GDPR

This section applies to you only if you reside in a jurisdiction where GDPR applies.  

For GDPR purposes, the data controller is Workweek, 1023 Springdale Rd., Ste. 9E, Austin, TX 78721.  

Lawful bases 

If we are aware that you reside in a GDPR jurisdiction, we only collect, use or share information about you when we have a valid reason. This is called a ‘lawful basis.’ Our lawful bases generally map to the Purposes above, but specifically include:

• The consent you provide to us at the point of collection of your information
• The performance of the contract we have with you
• The compliance of a legal obligation to which we are subject, or
• The legitimate interests of Workweek Media Inc. or a third party. 

We have a legitimate interest in gathering and processing personal data, for example: (1) to ensure that our networks and information are secure; (2) to administer and generally conduct our business; (3) to prevent fraud; and (4) to conduct our marketing activities.

GDPR rights

Depending on your jurisdiction’s enactment of GDPR, you may have these rights:

• Request access (commonly known as a ‘data subject access request’). This enables you to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you. 
• Request correction. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us. 
• Request erasure. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for us to continue to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your personal data where you have successfully exercised objected to processing (see below), where we may have processed your personal data unlawfully, or where we are required to erase your personal data to comply with local law.  We may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons.  If so, we will notify you at the time of your request. 
• Object to processing where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and you object to particular processing due to a perceived impact on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information that override your rights and freedoms. 
• Request restriction of processing during the following scenarios: (a) if you want us to establish the data’s accuracy; (b) where our use of the data is unlawful, but you do not want us to erase it; (c) where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims; or (d) you have objected to our use of your data, but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it. 
• Request the transfer of your personal data to you or a third party. We will provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.  This right only applies to automated information that you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you. 
• Withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your personal data. If you withdraw your consent, we might not be able to provide certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent. For clarity, withdrawal is not retroactive.

We do not charge for access to your personal data or to exercise any of the other rights.  However, we may refuse to comply with your request or charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive, or excessive.  

• Deleted disclosures 

Workweek – these removed disclosures are here in case you want to repurpose anything in them as FAQs or as part of a cookie disclosure or policy (which we do not recommend unless/until you have a sizeable EU userbase or operations).

 

Cookies, Beacons and Analytics

When you interact with the Services, we strive to make your experience easy and meaningful.  Our Services uses technology, or those of third-party service providers, such as cookies, web beacons (clear GIFs, web bugs) and similar technologies to track user activity and collect site data.  We may combine this data with the personal information we have collected from you.

‍Cookies

We (including our chosen third-party service providers) use cookies to track visitor activity on the Services.  A cookie is a text file that a website transfers to your computer’s hard drive for record-keeping purposes.  Our cookies assign a random, unique number to each visitor’s computer.  They do not contain information that would personally identify the visitor, although we can associate a cookie with any identifying information that is or has been provided to us while visiting the Services.  We use cookies that remain on your computer for a specified period of time or until they are deleted (persistent cookies). We may also use cookies that exist only temporarily during an online session (session cookies) – these cookies allow us to identify you temporarily as you move through the Services.  Most browsers allow users to refuse cookies but doing so may impede the functionality of some portions of our Services.

Web Beacons

Web beacons are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, that are used to track the online movements of Web users.  In contrast to cookies, which are stored on your computer’s hard drive, Web beacons are embedded invisibly on webpages and may not be disabled or controlled through your browser.

Third Parties

We may also engage third parties to track and analyze Services activity on our behalf.  To do so, these third parties may place cookies or web beacons to track user activity on our Services.  We use the data collected by such third parties to administer and improve the quality of the Services, analyze usage of the Services, and provide a more enhanced user experience on the Services, such as personalizing and delivering relevant offers and content based on user activity on the Services.  We do not provide these third parties with your personal information.

We may use third party analytics services (such as Google Analytics and other similar services) to collect and process certain analytics data.  These services may also collect information about your use of other websites, apps, and online resources.

Workweek’s use and transfer of information received from Google APIs to any other app will adhere to Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. 

User Content

The Services allow users to post information.  Any information that you post to the Services becomes public information and may be viewable by other users, as well as visitors to the Services.  In addition, your name, as well as other optional information you choose to submit along with the information you post, will be publicly displayed along with your comment or blog.  We are not responsible for the privacy of any information that you choose to post to the Services, or for the accuracy of any information contained in those postings.  We cannot prevent such information from being used by others in a manner that may violate this Privacy Policy, the law, or your personal privacy.  Your posting of any content to any of the Services is subject to our Terms of Use.

Third-Party Links

The Services may contain links to other, third-party websites.  Any access to and use of such linked websites is not governed by this Privacy Policy, but, instead, is governed by the privacy policies of those third-party websites.  We are not responsible for the information practices of such third-party websites. 

Notifications Policy

We may use your email address, and/or in-app or desktop notifications, to communicate with you about orders you have placed, inquiries you have made about our products and services, or information you have shared with us through the Services or email.  We may send you emails and/or provide notifications from time-to-time, about information that we believe may be of interest to you.  We may also send you news, offers, and other notifications about our products and services, or those of our chosen partners.  Examples include, but are not limited to, our blog, newsletter, information about special offers, or other products or offerings.

If, at any time, you would like to stop receiving these promotional (non-transactional) e-mails or desktop notifications, you may follow the opt-out instructions contained in any such e-mail, and you may opt out of desktop notifications.  Please note that it may take a few business days for us to process opt-out requests.  If you opt-out of receiving emails, promotions, or notifications, we still may send you e-mails and/or notifications in accordance with this Privacy Policy, as requested by you, or in reference to other customer service purposes.
