This Privacy Policy (the “Policy”) tells you what information about you (“Information”) DFS (“we”) or our service providers collect when you interact with us via our Websites.

Please note that this Policy may change from time-to-time. We will post changes on this URL and note the effective date so that you are always aware of the Policy that applies to you. This Policy was last updated on 15 September, 2021. Please check the Policy each time you visit this Website for the most current version. This Policy concerns only our Website, and does not concern any other third-party website, including sites to which our Website may link. If you do not wish us to collect, use, share, and protect your Information consistent with this Policy, immediately discontinue your access to and use of our Website and do not return.

If there is a conflict between our Terms of Use of our Website and this Policy, this Policy shall prevail. Please also note that there are special provisions if you register for the Mailing Lists, a Publication, an Event, or a Webinar, post and/or contribute contents to the Websites, apply for a Job Posting or share Publications with third parties. The additional Information that is provided in those instances is governed by the specific clauses in this Policy concerning the Mailing Lists, the Publications, the Events, the Webinars, and the Job Postings. These particular provisions are accepted by you when they register for our Mailing List, when you download a Publication, when they post and/or contribute contents to the Websites, when you register to access a Webinar or an Event, when you submit a job application, and when you share a Publication with a third party for the first time.

International Transfer

Third parties that process DFS’s data include XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX, which are active participants in both the Swiss-US Privacy Shield Framework and the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework, as recorded here. Thus, our legal basis for transferring data internationally is the Data Processing Agreements with these data processors.

Your information may be transferred to – and maintained on – computers located outside of your state, province, country, or other governmental jurisdiction where the privacy laws may not be as protective as those in your jurisdiction. If you are located outside the US and choose to provide information to us, we transfer personal information to the US and process it there. Your consent to this Policy followed by your submission of such information represents your agreement to that transfer.

How we collect Information about you

Our website uses third-party technologies to help us gather aggregate information about the user experience, including analytic tools such as Google Analytics, Alphabet Inc. and Duda.co. Accordingly, and depending on the Website, the web browsers used by you automatically send certain information to Google and/or Duda.co. This includes, for example, the web address of the pages that you are visiting, your IP address, your device category and platform, and the duration of your visit. This information is collected by Google and Duda.co on an aggregate and non-individual specific basis. Google and Duda provide us with reports based on this information that we use to understand website traffic and web page usage.

If you chose to register for our Mailing List, a Publication, a Webinar, an Event, or apply for a Job on our Websites, we will use the Information provided by you only for that purpose, and not for any other purposes not explicitly consented to. Keep this in mind while reviewing the Information that we collect for the following services:

If you register for our Mailing List or download a resource via our website, we only collect, via ConvertKit, your name, email address, your job title, and the company for which you are currently employed.
If you register to access an Event, and/or to download a Publication via the Websites, we only collect, via ConvertKit or Duda.co, your name, email address, your job title, and the company for which you are currently employed.

If you apply to a Job Posting, we only collect, via Google Forms, your name, email, current location, highest degree and major, name of awarding college/university, work experience, last or current place of employment, current skills, why you think you are the right fit for the position, CV, and any cover letter attachments.

How we use cookies and web beacons

When you access our Websites, we or the companies that host our Websites – such as Squarespace, duda.co and WordPress, and Google Analytics – may place small data files called “cookies” on your computer to track how the Websites are used. These cookies are encoded so that only we can interpret the information stored in them. Each time you access our Websites, you will be prompted to accept our cookie policy. You are free to decline cookies if your browser permits, in which case information will not be collected from the cookies.

Emails sent to our Mailing List and our Websites may contain electronic images known as web beacons (sometimes called single-pixel gifs) and are used along with cookies to compile aggregated statistics to analyze how these emails and Websites are used.

How we protect and store Information

Throughout this Policy, the term “Information” is used to describe non-public information that can be associated with a specific person and can be used to identify that person. This useage does not include information that has been anonymized so that it does not identify a specific user.

We store and process Information on our servers in the United States and other locations where Google data centers are located and we protect it by maintaining physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards in compliance with applicable legislative and regulatory standards. We use computer safeguards such as firewalls and authorize access to Information only for those employees who require it to fulfill their job responsibilities.

We use contemporary technologies and maintain rigorous security standards and procedures with a view to preventing unauthorized access to all Information. However, you should note that our third-party service providers hold the data they collect on the basis of their own privacy policies (as set out here: duda.co, ConvertKit, Zoom, Alphabet Inc, and Google), and they have their own security standards and procedures with a view to preventing unauthorized access to this data. You are strongly advised to read these third-party provider’s privacy policies and satisfy yourself as to the adequacy of their security standards and procedures before accessing our Websites.

Messages and information passing over the Internet may not be secure and can be intercepted by third parties or incorrectly delivered. The confidentiality of such communications cannot, therefore, be guaranteed and you should not divulge personal information over the Internet unless you are using secure or encrypted communications technology. We will, however, inform you if any data breaches occur as soon as practicable once we become aware of any such breach.

How we use the Information collected

We collect Information to provide you with a secure, seamless, and simple user experience and to comply with all legal regulations. We do not use Information to make automated decisions. All Information will be treated by us with the utmost confidentiality. The lawful basis for this processing is that in each case we gather consent from you to process your personal data for one or more specific purposes. We will store Information until that Information is no longer relevant for the original service provided. For instance, if we decide to stop sending emails to our Mailing List, we will stop storing Information provided to us for the purpose of subscribing to the Mailing List. We use Information to:

enable you to register for an Event
enable you to apply for a Job Posting
allow you to read content on the Website
provide you access to Webinars on the Website and other third party websites
enable us to let you send copies of Publications to third parties via third party social media plug-ins

Third-party service providers under contract that assist with parts of our business operations such as marketing and technology services, including ConvertKit (Mailing List distribution), Google Analytics, duda.co (in regard to Website visits), Zoom (Webinars), and Google Forms (Job Postings).

Third-party service providers and other independent contractors that we partner with that allow you to click through from our Websites to their own websites in order to facilitate the sharing of Publications. In this case we will only provide the data inputted by you, namely the shared Publication and your IP address. This data will be held by the third-party provider for the purposes set out in that third-party provider’s privacy policy. You are strongly advised to read the chosen third-party provider’s privacy policy and satisfy yourself as to the purposes for which the third-party provider will use your Information before sharing Publications. We have no responsibility for the uses to which a third-party provider puts your Information once you have used the third-party plug-in.
Companies that we plan to merge with or be acquired by. (Should such a combination occur, we shall require that the new combined entity follow this Policy with respect to Information.)

o We are compelled to do so by a subpoena, a court order, or a similar legal procedure

o We are required to do so to comply with the law

O We believe in good faith that the disclosure of Information is necessary to prevent physical harm or financial loss, to report suspected illegal activity, or to investigate violations of our Terms of Use of Websites
