4. WHAT WE DO WITH THE DATA YOU SUBMIT.
Playsmint holds its employees, agents, and suppliers accountable for maintaining the trust our applicants, employees, and customers place in us. We educate our employees and periodically verify our compliance with our privacy and security policies. Playsmint does not sell or trade personal data to third parties. We will disclose personal information when required by law.
In order to provide our services, personal data you give us may be shared with other Playsmint operations that are governed by the same privacy principles and security practices. Because of our national scope, this data may also be transferred, stored, and processed throughout the United States.
We will send the personal data of our applicants, workforce suppliers and temporary employees to Playsmint customers and/or agents who are acting on our behalf to provide you employment or project opportunities.
We occasionally use other companies to provide limited services on our behalf, such as drug and background screening, training and certification, assessments, payroll processing services and health-care benefits.
We may also send your personal data to marketing companies who will then contact you to determine your feedback and satisfaction with our services. These companies may also send you information on our services.
We will only provide these agents and suppliers with the personal information they need to deliver the service we have requested.
Playsmint may also collect and report demographic data, (e.g. what percentage of our employees are college graduates) to customers, marketing companies, or as required by law. If we do collect and report this demographic information, we remove any unique personally identifiable information (name, address, etc.) that would attach you to this demographic data. This anonymous information is used and analyzed only at an aggregate level to help us understand trends and more precisely determine how to improve the services we offer you.
