The Quiz Collective, Inc. (doing business as Interact) (“Interact”, “we” or “us”) provides tools for creating online quizzes to help grow businesses.

To better understand what information is most relevant to you, we have provided some useful definitions.
The personal information we collect and how we use it may differ if you are a Client, Respondent or Website Visitor so we make these distinctions in this Privacy Policy, where applicable.
We may change this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make changes, we will notify you by posting a revised version of the policy to the Site with the updated revision date and, in some cases, we may provide you with additional notice (such as adding a statement to our website homepage or sending you a notification). If the changes are material, we will provide notice of the changes on the Site prior to the changes becoming effective. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy regularly to stay informed about our information practices and the choices available to you.

Personal information does not include publicly available information or information that has been de-identified, as defined by applicable laws.
Information You Provide Us
We collect information you provide directly to us, which may include contact information, like your name or email address, and any other information you choose to provide. For example, you share information directly with us when you subscribe to our newsletter or sign up for our email updates, fill out a webform on our Site, respond to one of our Client’s Quizzes or Interact’s own Quizzes, request customer support, or when you otherwise communicate with us (e.g., chat).

Our Clients may provide us with information about you to manage our relationship with the Client or administer Quizzes on their behalf.
Information We Derive
We may derive information or draw inferences about you based on the information we or our partners collect. For example, we may make inferences about your location based on your IP address or infer that you are looking to purchase certain products based on your browsing behavior.
Respondents Information
When we manage a Quiz on behalf of our Client, the information Respondents provide in completing the Quiz (“Quiz Information”) is controlled by the Client. In those instances, Quiz Information is governed by the privacy practices of the Client. Therefore, please review the applicable Client’s privacy policy or notice outlining how your information will be collected, used, stored, used, and managed.
There may be instances where we create our own Quizzes on our own behalf. If you complete one of our own Quizzes, your responses and all such Quiz Information will be subject to this Privacy Policy.
Additional Information We May Collect If You Are a Client
Links
Our Site may contain links to third-party websites, including those of our business partners. Those websites may have their own privacy policies or no privacy policies at all.

Interact has no control over or responsibility for any unaffiliated third-party websites or the content contained in them, and we provide these links solely for your convenience when you visit our Site or use our Services. We do not sponsor, endorse, or otherwise recommend such websites or any products or services they may offer.

Please contact the Client directly for more information about the Client’s use of Quiz Information and their privacy practices generally. Interact does not sell personal information related to Quiz responses. Additionally, Interact does not use Respondent contact details collected in our Client’s Quizzes to contact Respondents, without the Client’s authorization.
4. Advertising and Analytics
We allow others to provide analytics services and serve advertisements on our behalf across the web and in mobile apps. These entities may use cookies, web beacons, device identifiers and other technologies to collect information about your use of our Services and other websites and applications, including your IP address, web browser, mobile network information, pages viewed, time spent on pages or in mobile apps, links clicked, and conversion information.

Cookies
To help us serve you better, we collect information that identifies the computer or browser used to access our Services, as well as the user account associated with that computer/browser if you are logged in.
Certain cookies placed by our Services do not collect any personal information and are essential to provision of a functional website and/or app, which we have a legitimate interest in providing (these are known as “Necessary Cookies” and include cookies that drive your navigation on our Services).

Our Site is a general audience website intended for adult use only. Accordingly, none of our Services, including this Site, are directed to children.

The rights to know and delete are subject to our being able to reasonably verify your identity and authority to make these requests. In order to verify your identity when you submit a request, we will ask you to provide two (2) or three (3) pieces of personal information to confirm in our records. For example, if you purchased an Interact plan through our Site, you will be asked to provide at least your name and details of your last purchase.

You may also authorize someone to exercise the above rights on your behalf. In order to do so, we require signed permission. If we receive your request from an authorized agent, we may ask for evidence that you have provided such agent with power of attorney or equivalent document that the agent otherwise has valid written authority to submit requests to exercise rights on your behalf. If you are an authorized agent seeking to make a request, please contact us. Once we have a copy of the valid signed authorization, your designated representative/authorized agent will be able to exercise these rights with respect to the account(s) listed on such authorization for the life of the account, unless there is a specified term or expiration date on the authorization form.
8. Additional Disclosures for Individuals in Europe
If you are located in the EEA, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, and have a direct relationship with Interact, you have certain rights and protections under the law regarding the processing of your personal data by Interact, and this section of our Privacy Policy applies to you.
We have included a couple of additional definitions that apply to individuals in the EEA, United Kingdom and Switzerland:
Transfer of Information from the EU, UK, or Switzerland
When we transfer personal data from the European Union (“EU”), European Economic Area (“EEA”), United Kingdom or Switzerland to the United States, we do so consistent with the principles of the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework and the Swiss - U.S. Privacy Shield Framework (collectively “Privacy Shield Principles”), as set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce regarding the collection, use, and retention of personal data. Interact has certified that it adheres to the Privacy Shield Principles with respect to such data. If there is any conflict between the policies in this Privacy Policy and the rights consistent with Privacy Shield Principles, the Privacy Shield Principles shall govern. To learn more about the Privacy Shield program, and to view our certification page, please visit https://www.privacyshield.gov/.
Interact is subject to the regulatory and enforcement authority of the United States Federal Trade Commission.
Consistent with the Privacy Shield Frameworks we inform EU and Swiss individuals that we may be required to release their information in response to lawful requests by public authorities including to meet national security and law enforcement requirements.
If Interact shares personal data transferred to the United States consistent with the Privacy Shield Principles with a third-party service provider processing such data on our behalf, then we will be liable for that third party’s processing that violates the Privacy Shield Principles, unless we can prove that we are not responsible for the event resulting or otherwise giving rise to such violation.
Please note that Interact does not sell, rent or use personal data for reasons other than that for which it was originally collected. If any of those practices should change in the future, we will update this policy appropriately and provide individuals with opt-out or opt-in choice prior to the change being effective.
Consistent with the Privacy Shield Principles, Interact commits to resolve complaints about your privacy and our collection or use of your personal information transferred to the United States pursuant to Privacy Shield Principles. EU and Swiss individuals with privacy inquiries or complaints should first contact Interact using the information in the Contact Us section below.
Interact has further committed to refer unresolved privacy complaints under the Privacy Shield Frameworks to an independent dispute resolution mechanism, the BBB EU PRIVACY SHIELD, operated by the Council of Better Business Bureaus. If you do not receive timely acknowledgment of your complaint, or if your complaint is not satisfactorily addressed, please visit https://www.bbb.org/EU-privacy-shield/for-eu-consumers for more information and to file a complaint. This service is provided free of charge to you.
If your Privacy Shield complaint cannot be resolved through the above channels, under certain conditions, you may invoke binding arbitration for some residual claims not resolved by other redress mechanisms. See Privacy Shield Annex 1 at https://www.privacyshield.gov/article?id=ANNEX-I-introduction.
Legal Basis for Processing
When we process your personal data, we will do so in reliance on the following lawful bases:
Data Retention
We will retain your personal information while you have a relationship with Interact, which may include (but is not limited to): registering for an account, subscribing to an Interact newsletter or otherwise having opted in to receiving marketing communications from us (without thereafter having unsubscribed or opted out); logging in to our Service; ordering a product from us; or creating, editing, or otherwise leaving active a Quiz on our Service.
We maintain personal data for as long as is necessary for the purpose(s) for which we originally collected it and for other legitimate business purposes, including to meet our legal, regulatory, or other compliance obligations. You may request that we delete your personal data at any time by emailing us at privacy@tryinteract.com. Except as required under applicable law, your request will be honored within 30 days of receipt.
In addition, Clients have the ability via the Service to delete Respondent Information for any specific Respondent at any time, using controls available in our Service.
Notwithstanding the above, Interact will retain your information indefinitely if it believes in good faith that it has a legal obligation to do so.
Data Subject Requests
You have the right to request access to the personal data we hold about you and to ask that your personal data be corrected, erased, or transferred. You may also have the right to object to, or request that we restrict, certain processing. If you would like to exercise any of these rights, see instructions below.
With respect to our Clients and individuals with whom we have a direct business relationship, individuals wishing to exercise these rights can (1) email privacy@tryinteract.com or, (2) if you have an account, login to their Interact account by visiting https://dashboard.tryinteract.com/login and navigate to “Download Personal Data” located under “Account Settings” section of the user dashboard. If you are a Respondent and Interact processes your personal data on behalf of an Interact Client, please refer your request to our Client to handle. We provide Clients with a "Portability" function, which allows Clients to download all Respondent Information, including personal data, specific to that Client’s Quizzes.
If you would like to remove your name and address from promotional lists (including any personal information gathered by our service providers) and place your name on our “do not contact” list, contact us at privacy@tryinteract.com and request that you be placed on our “do not contact” list. Please note that because names may be similar, you must include in your request all associated email addresses and phone numbers (if any) that you wish to be removed in the body of the email. We reserve the right to contact you for administrative purposes to request more information in order to assist us in deleting your account or information about you. For instance, if you send us an email using an email address that is not in our system, we may contact you to ask you for the email you used when you created your account. We may also send you a confirmation email, once we have deleted your information. We will make commercially reasonable efforts to delete your information within 30 days from our active files, provided, however, that we may retain—for legal compliance purposes only—your request and associated email in a hashed format so that we do not inadvertently restore your information to our database. Please note that requests to update your personal information may take up to five days. You may also request that we stop processing your information without deleting it, and we will comply within five days of receipt of such a request.
Questions or Complaints
If you have a concern about our processing of personal data that we are not able to resolve, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the data privacy authority where you reside. Contact details of your Data Protection Authority can be found using the links below:
