Privacy Policy for Aptitude Assessments

Privacy Policy for Aptitude Assessments

This policy explains how we handle personal information collected from candidates when administering aptitude assessments (ability and personality tests) as part of our hiring process. By starting the assessment, you are deemed to have agreed to this policy.

1. Information We Collect

• Your answers, scores, and time spent.
• Interaction signals during the assessment (tab switching, copy/paste, right-click, use of developer tools or certain browser extensions, and cursor/keyboard patterns). We store only aggregated values, not raw coordinates.
• For assessments where webcam use is required, still facial images captured for identity verification and integrity. These may constitute biometric personal data.

2. Purposes

• Administering and scoring the assessment and supporting selection decisions.
• Verifying that you are the registered candidate and preventing/detecting impersonation and misconduct.
• Improving the quality of the assessment process through statistical analysis.

3. Handling of Webcam Images (Biometric Data)

Where webcam use is required, facial images are captured at intervals during the assessment and stored in encrypted storage. Authorized recruiters may view them for integrity review.

• Capture occurs only for camera-required assessments and only after you explicitly consent at the start.
• If you do not consent, or your device has no camera, you may be unable to take that assessment.
• Stored images are automatically deleted after a predefined retention period (90 days by default; it varies by the administering company's settings).
• We do not perform facial recognition matching against third parties, nor use the images for any purpose other than identity verification and integrity.

4. Disclosure to Third Parties

We do not provide the collected information to third parties without prior consent, except as required by law. The administering company handles this information within the scope of the selection process.

5. Storage and Security

Information is stored under restricted access and appropriate safeguards. Images containing biometric data are retained and accessed only to the minimum extent necessary.

6. Retention

Answers and records are retained for the period necessary for selection and legal requirements; webcam images are retained within the retention period above and deleted thereafter.

7. Your Rights

You may request disclosure, correction, or suspension of use of your personal information. Please contact us using the details below.
