    What to Expect When you Submit a Request to Us

    We are a professional services firm, dealing almost exclusively with other companies, as opposed to directly with consumers as that term is usually understood, in business-to-business transactions; and the protection of our clients’ information (past, present, and future) is paramount to our corporate values and our privacy program.

    We take data security, in addition to privacy, very seriously, and California law is clear on the need for businesses to protect all consumers from fraudulent requests made by someone other than the actual individual. We mention this to prepare you for the fact that if you request from us specific pieces of Personal Data collected about you, we will do whatever is reasonably necessary (as the law allows and requires) to verify that you are who you say you are; and as such, you should expect a thorough and personalized vetting process from us to ensure that we do not provide one individual’s Personal Data to an imposter. The process may take 45 days (or longer when reasonably necessary) depending on the request, and consistent with our obligations under the law.

    Only you or a person registered with the California Secretary of State that you authorize to act on your behalf or is authorized by a person who has power of attorney or is acting as a conservator for the consumer, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your Personal Data. You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child.

    The verifiable consumer request must:

    • Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected Personal Data or an authorized representative.
    • Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

    International Transfers of Your Personal Data

    As provided in the Privacy Statement and Data Privacy Framework Statement, Huron collects various forms of Personal Data for various purposes.

    By using the website or providing Personal Data to Huron, your Personal Data may be transferred to the United States, where Huron is headquartered, or to other Huron locations where we carry out our support activities. Your country's laws governing data collection and use may differ from those in the United States or other Huron locations. Some of the entities with whom we share your Personal Data, as described above in the Privacy Statement, are also located in countries whose laws have not been deemed by the European Commission to provide the same level of protection to your Personal Data. Only a small number of countries have been officially recognized by the European Commission as providing an adequate level of protection (list available here). Transfers to Huron entities and others located in countries outside the European Economic Area ("EEA"), UK, or Switzerland take place on the basis of an adequacy finding by the relevant authority (i.e., European Commission, Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner ("FDPIC"), UK Information Commissioner's Office ("ICO") or other competent supervisory authority), EU Standard Contractual Clauses (or other standard contractual clauses approved by a competent supervisory authority), or other appropriate GDPR or applicable law derogations, including the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework, Swiss-US Data Privacy Framework, and UK Extension to the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework.

    Data Privacy Framework Statement

    This Data Privacy Framework Statement ("DPF Statement"), and the sections that follow, describe Huron's standards and procedures when handling Personal Data transferred from the European Economic Area ("EEA"), the United Kingdom (and Gibraltar) and Switzerland to the U.S. in accordance with Huron's obligations under the Data Privacy Framework. This statement supplements our Privacy Statement, and the terms in this DPF Statement have the same meaning as in our Privacy Statement. If there is any conflict between the terms in this Privacy Statement and the Data Privacy Framework Principles related to Personal Data transferred in reliance on our Data Privacy Framework certification, the Data Privacy Framework Principles shall govern.

    Huron complies with the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (EU-U.S. DPF), the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF, and the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (Swiss-U.S. DPF) as set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce. Huron has certified to the U.S. Department of Commerce that it adheres to the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework Principles (EU-U.S. DPF Principles) with regard to the processing of Personal Data received from the European Union in reliance on the EU-U.S. DPF and from the United Kingdom (and Gibraltar) in reliance on the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF. To learn more about the EU-U.S. and Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Frameworks and the UK Extension and view our certification, please visit https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/.

    Huron is subject to the investigatory and enforcement powers of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission ("FTC").

    Notice

    The foregoing information, in addition to the Privacy Statement, further outlines Huron's commitment to compliance with the DPF Principles and provide you notice of specific information pertinent to you under the Data Privacy Framework.

    Choice

    You have the opportunity to opt out if your Personal Data is (i) to be disclosed to a third party or (ii) to be used for a purpose that is materially different from the purpose(s) for which it was originally collected or subsequently authorized by the individuals. Where use or transfer involves sensitive information, you must opt-in before Huron will use or transfer such information.

    Accountability for Onward Transfer for Personal Data

    Huron may transfer Personal Data for the purposes described in the Huron Privacy Statement to a third party as a data controller or as an agent. In such an event, Huron will comply with and protect Personal Data as provided for in the Accountability of Onward Transfer Principle of the Data Protection Framework. Huron remains responsible for the processing of Personal Data received under the Data Protection Framework and then transferred to a third party acting as an agent if that party processes Personal Data in a manner inconsistent with the Data Protection Framework and its principles, unless Huron demonstrates that we are not responsible for the event resulting in damage.

    Security

    Huron takes reasonable and appropriate measures to protect Personal Data and takes into account the risks involved in processing and the nature of the Personal Data it maintains, in order to protect against loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and destruction.

    Data Integrity and Purpose Limitation

    Any Personal Data Huron collects may be used for the purposes indicated below or in our Privacy Statement or otherwise notified to you. We will not process Personal Data in a way that is incompatible with these purposes unless authorized by you.

    The lawful basis for our processing of your Personal Data will depend on the purposes of the processing. For most Personal Data processing activities covered by this Privacy Statement, the lawful basis is that the processing is necessary for our legitimate business interests. Where we process Personal Data in relation to a contract, or a potential contract, with you, the lawful basis is that the processing is necessary for the performance of our contract with you or to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract. If we are required to share Personal Data with law enforcement agencies or other governmental bodies, we do so on the basis that we are under a legal obligation to do so. We will also use consent as the legal basis where we deem appropriate or to the extent required by applicable law, for example, before we collect precise location data from your electronic device.

    Depending on what Personal Data we collect from you and how we collect it, we may also rely on various grounds for processing your Personal Data, including the following reasons:

    • Processing on the basis of legitimate business interests. When we process Personal Data on the basis that the processing is necessary for our legitimate business interests, such interests include: (i) providing, improving, and promoting our Services; (ii) communicating with current and potential customers, other business partners, and their individual points of contact; (iii) managing our relationships with our customers and other business partners, and their individual points of contact; (iv) other business development purposes; (v) sharing information within Huron, as well as with service providers and other third parties; and (vi) maintaining the safety and security of our products, Services, and employees, including fraud protection.
    • Processing on the basis of performance of a contract. Examples of situations in which we process Personal Data as necessary for performance of a contract include e-commerce transactions in which you purchase a service from us.
    • Processing on the basis of consent. Examples of processing activities for which we may use consent as its legal basis include: (i) collecting and processing precise location information from your electronic device; (ii) sending promotional emails when consent is required under applicable law; and (iii) processing Personal Data on Huron Services through cookies and similar technologies when consent is required by applicable law.
    • Processing because we are under a legal obligation to do so. Examples of situations in which we must processes Personal Data to comply with our legal obligations include: (i) providing your Personal Data to law enforcement agencies and other governmental bodies when required by applicable laws; (ii) retaining business records required to be retained by applicable laws; and (iii) complying with court orders or other legal process.

    If the processing of your Personal Data is based on your consent, the GDPR and Data Protection Act 2018 also allow users the right to access, revoke, or modify your consent at any time. Please see Contact Us, below, to review or modify your consents.

    Retention

    We will retain your Personal Data for as long as needed for the purposes described in this Privacy Statement. More specifically, the time we maintain your Personal Data depends on the following factors:

    Whether we need the Personal Data to provide the Services. We will maintain any data needed to provide you with the Services, such as contact information and payment or transaction information, for as long as needed for us to provide you with the Services, respond to your questions and requests, and/or administer your account (if applicable).

    • Whether we need the Personal Data to comply with our legal obligations. We may have legal obligations to maintain your Personal Data where a legal or regulatory body may ask for it in the future, for example in response to a data subject request or complaint. This information may include contact information and location information.
    • Whether we need the Personal Data for a legitimate business interest. We may store Personal Data like contact information, cookies, and location information in order to perform analytics, troubleshoot errors, or improve our Services. In any event, we delete the Personal Data when it is no longer needed for our legitimate interest.

    Regardless of our reason for retaining your Personal Data, we delete all Personal Data in accordance with our routine record keeping policies.

    Your Singapore Privacy Rights

    If you are visiting the website from the Singapore or where applicable Singapore data protection laws so provide, you may exercise the following rights regarding your Personal Data:

    Access/Receive. You have the right to obtain from Huron and review some of the Personal Data Huron has collected about you and be informed of the ways your Personal Data has been used or disclosed to organizations within a year before the date of request. The right to access your Personal Data may be limited if fulfillment of the right would:

    • Threaten the safety or physical or mental health of an individual other than the individual who made the request;
    • Cause immediate or grave harm to the safety or the physical or mental health of the individual who made the request;
    • Reveal Personal Data about another individual (unless the data was originally provided by you);
    • Reveal the identity of an individual who has provided Personal Data about another individual and the individual providing the Personal Data does not consent to the disclosure of his or her identity (unless the data was originally provided by you); or
    • Be contrary to the national interest.

    Huron is not required to include in your access request, information that is:

    • Opinion data kept solely for an evaluation purpose;
    • About any examination conducted by an education institution, examination scripts and, prior to the release of examination results, examination results;
