COOKIES AND ONLINE TRACKING

Achievers uses a browser feature called a “cookie” to collect information anonymously and track user patterns on and off Achievers Websites. We may also use cookies to show you relevant advertising across third party web sites and to determine how that ad performed.

A cookie is a small text file that is placed on your hard disk by a Website. Cookies contain a unique identification number that identifies your browser, but not you, to our systems each time you visit one of our Websites. Cookies tell us which pages of our Websites are visited and by how many people. Achievers does not collect any Personal Information about you through cookies nor can a cookie carry a damaging payload (such as malware).

There are two types of cookies in use with Achievers Websites which include:

  • Session based cookies – Only used for the length of time you remain on the Website and expire when you leave the Website.
  • Persistent based cookies – Are more permanent in nature and can re-used when you return to the Website from the same computer.

The use of cookies is an industry standard and many major browsers are initially set up to accept them. You can reset your browser to either refuse to accept all cookies or to notify you when you have received a cookie. However, if you refuse to accept cookies, you may not be able to use some of the features available on our Websites.

“Do Not Track” Browser Setting

Achievers does not respond to web browser “do not track” (DNT) settings or headers with respect to Achievers public Websites. For more information about do-not-track signals, please click here (http://www.allaboutdnt.com/). Currently no common industry standard for DNT has been adopted and there is also no consistent standard of interpreting user intent when the DNT setting is enabled. Achievers takes privacy seriously will continue to monitor policy advocates, technical experts, regulators and companies attempting to create a consensus interpretation around DNT browser technology and the implementation of a standard.

Email

When you send us an email or when you ask us to respond to you by email, we collect your exact email address and any information you have included in the email message.

We use your email address to acknowledge your comments and/or reply to your questions, and we will store your communication and our reply in case we correspond further. We may use your email address to send you information about offers on products or special promotions that we believe may be of interest to you. You may choose to stop receiving our marketing emails at any time by following the unsubscribe instructions included in these emails.

If you use any of our services that allow you to send online recognitions to other people, we may use your email address to send you information about our products. When you provide us with someone else’s email address, we will only use it to send them the recognitions that you have requested. The emails we send may contain web beacons (described below).

Web Beacons

Achievers uses images imbedded in email messages called “web beacons.” Web beacons are clear images that allow Achievers to determine if a message has been opened. It also allows Achievers to determine the IP address of the user that opened it and to access any Achievers cookies. We may use this information in the aggregate to assess and improve our email messages.

Email web beacons can be disabled by turning off HTML display and displaying text only or by turning off image display while still using HTML within your email client.

SECURITY

Achievers is committed to protecting your privacy. We have implemented safeguards designed to protect the personal information submitted to us. Achievers employees have been trained to respect your privacy and those employees with access to your Personal Information shall use your Personal Information strictly in accordance with the Achievers Privacy Notice and the laws applicable to Achievers business. Please note that data transmission over the Internet cannot be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, we cannot guarantee or warrant the security of any Personal Information while in transit.

DATA INTEGRITY

Achievers will take steps to keep your Personal Information accurate, complete, and up-to-date, to the extent reasonable possible within the context of the data we have and how we obtained it. You have the right to request and review the Personal Information we hold about you and you have a right to request correction of any inaccurate information. If for any reason we are unable to comply with such a request, we will advise you regarding the reason(s) why.

RETENTION

It is our policy to retain your information only for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected and processed. We will retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you services and for as long as may be required to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, maintain appropriate business records, and enforce our agreements. Even if you request for your information to be deleted, laws and regulations may require us to retain a copy of your information in our files for a longer period of time. Unless a specific applicable law requires a different retention period, most data will be retained for no longer than seven (7) years.

ACCESS, CORRECTION, PORTABILITY, AND DELETION

You have the right to access, correct (“rectify”), or delete your Personal Information held by us or may ask for a restriction of processing. You may also have the right to ask for an overview or copy of your Personal Information or to request that certain of your personal information be provided to you or to another provider in a machine-readable format where technically feasible (data portability).

You can exercise these rights by sending an email to Privacy.Office@Achievers.com.

Except in limited circumstances, as specifically provided by applicable privacy legislation, Achievers can tell you whether we hold Personal Information about you.

Please note that there are some limitations to these rights. For example, we will not be able to delete your personal information if we are required by law to keep it or if we hold it in connection with a contract with you. Similarly, access to your personal information may be refused if making the information available would reveal personal information about another person or if we are legally prevented from disclosing such information.

Achievers will only refuse access to your Personal Information in those circumstances permitted and required by applicable laws or regulations. If we cannot fulfill your request, we will inform you about why we cannot comply with your request.

WITHDRAWAL OF CONSENT

Where we process your personal information based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal. Applicable law may also give you the right to object to certain elements of our processing or to lodge a complaint.

Object to Processing

You have the right to object to processing (including profiling) based on legitimate interest grounds, where we are relying upon legitimate interests to process personal information. If you object, we must stop that processing unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights and freedoms, or we need to process the personal information for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims. Where we rely upon legitimate interest as a basis for processing, we believe that we can demonstrate such compelling legitimate grounds, but we will consider each case on an individual basis.

Object to Marketing

You have the right to object to our use of your personal information (including profiling) for direct marketing purposes, such as when we use your personal information to invite you to our promotional events.

Right to Lodge a Complaint

You have the right to lodge a complaint with your supervisory authority, if you consider that the processing of your personal information infringes applicable law.

ENFORCEMENT

Achievers will conduct periodic assessments to validate its continued adherence to this Notice.

Where Achievers has knowledge that one of Achievers employees or Service Providers is using or disclosing Personal Information in a manner contrary to this Notice, Achievers will take reasonable steps to prevent or stop the use or disclosure. Achievers holds its employees and Service Providers accountable for maintaining the trust that employers and users place in our company.

INTERNATIONAL TRANSFER

The personal information we collect from you may be transferred to, stored at or processed in other countries, including the United States or other locations outside the European Economic Area, which may not provide equivalent levels of data protection to your home jurisdiction.

We will take steps to ensure that your personal information receives an adequate level of protection in the jurisdictions in which we process it, including through appropriate written data processing terms and/or data transfer agreements. For transfers from the EU, United Kingdom (“UK”) or Switzerland to the US, Achievers relies on adequacy decisions by the EU Commission or putting in place standard contractual clauses as approved by the European Commission (the form for the standard contractual clauses can be found here: EU Commission Standard Contractual Clauses) or another applicable supervisory body.

PRIVACY SHIELD

Achievers, through its US affiliate Achievers LLC, complies with the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework (“EU Privacy Shield”) and the Swiss-US Privacy Shield Framework (“Swiss Privacy Shield”) as set forth by the US Department of Commerce regarding the collection, use, and retention of personal information transferred from the European Union, the United Kingdom (“UK”) and Switzerland to the United States.

As part of the certification made via its prior affiliate, Blackhawk Network Inc., Achievers has certified to the Department of Commerce that it adheres to the Privacy Shield Principles with respect to such information. If there is any conflict between the terms in this Notice and the Privacy Shield Principles, the Privacy Shield Principles shall govern. To learn more about the Privacy Shield program, and to view our certification, please visit: https://www.privacyshield.gov/.

Prior to July 16, 2020, Achievers relied on its EU Privacy Shield and Swiss Privacy Shield certifications as one means of demonstrating adequacy and safeguarding transfers of data from the EU and Switzerland. In addition to Privacy Shield, Achievers also executed Standard Contractual Clauses with entities involved in such data transfers. As of July 16, 2020, Achievers will primarily rely on country-level adequacy decisions or the Standard Contractual Clauses for EU, UK, and Swiss transfers. For transfers occurring prior to July 16, 2020, Achievers will continue to be responsible for the processing of EU, UK, and Swiss Personal Information under the EU Privacy Shield Framework and will maintain full compliance with the requirements of that framework until further notice. Subsequent transfers of EU, UK, and Swiss Personal Information to any third-party acting as an agent on our behalf occurring after July 16, 2020, will be under the terms of the EU Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses.

With respect to Personal Information received or transferred pursuant to the EU or Swiss Privacy Shield Framework, Achievers is and will continue to be subject to the regulatory enforcement powers of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission until further notice.

In certain situations, Achievers may be required to disclose Personal Information in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements. To the best of our knowledge, Achievers’ systems are not subject to routine access by government authorities without warrants or appropriate accountability via established legal process.

Under certain conditions, more fully described on the Privacy Shield website https://www.privacyshield.gov/article?id=How-to-Submit-a-Complaint, you may invoke binding arbitration when other dispute resolution procedures have been exhausted.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Achievers will investigate and attempt to resolve complaints and disputes regarding the use and disclosure of Personal Information in accordance with the principles contained in this Notice.

Under certain conditions, more fully described on the Privacy Shield website, you may invoke binding arbitration when other dispute resolution procedures have been exhausted.

CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY NOTICE

This Notice is subject to change, so if this is your first time reading it, please make sure it is not the last. If we make any changes to this Notice, we will post those changes on this page and revise the “Last Updated” date at the top. If we make any changes to the ways in which we process your information that could be reasonably be considered material or substantial, we will make additional efforts to notify you of those changes, either by email or via a prominent notice on this Site prior to the change becoming effective. Where required by law, we will obtain your consent or give you the opportunity to opt out of such changes. Any changes will become effective when we post the revised Notice.
