Use of web-apps, questionnaires, tools etc

Our interactive web-apps, questionnaires, tools and message boxes (“apps”, “app”) collect additional information which is required for their correct function. All these apps are optional and if you do not wish to give any information that is requested, please discontinue using the app in question.

Some apps allow you to email or print information or results – please note if you do this, you are responsible for keeping your personal information secure. This includes using an email provider that encrypts incoming email.

We do not share information provided via apps with any other data processors, except email providers should you use any email functionality.

Corporate Coach Group cannot see the results of your usage of the apps, but we do keep a log of who uses each app to aid us in our continuous website improvement process.
