The Brand Auditors Privacy Policy
We are committed to maintaining the trust and confidence of every client. We are GDPR-compliant but strive to go above and beyond the standard.
Whether you're browsing our website, subscribing to our newsletter, or taking part in one of our research projects, here is where you will find information on how we protect your privacy and keep your data safe and secure.
Visitors to Our Website
When someone visits brandauditors.com, we use a third-party service called Google Analytics to collect standard Internet log information and details of visitor behavior patterns. We do this to find out things like the number of visitors who come to our site and which parts of our site they visit.
It helps us understand which content is popular and to create better online resources. We process information in a way that keeps personal identity confidential.
We don't make and don't allow Google to make any attempt to find out our website visitors' identities. You can find more information on how we use cookies in the "Cookies Policy" below.
If we want to collect personally identifiable information through our website, we will be upfront about this. We will clarify when we collect personal information and explain what we intend to do with it.
Newsletter Sign Up
We collect personal information as part of the registration process for email communications. We use that information for a few reasons: to tell you about stuff you have asked us to tell you about, to contact you if we need to obtain or provide additional information, to make sure our records are accurate, and to make sure you're happy and satisfied.
We don't sell or trade email lists with other organizations and businesses.
We use a third-party provider, MailerLite, to deliver our newsletter. We gather statistics around email opening and clicks using industry-standard technologies to help us monitor and improve our email communication.
For more information, please see MailerLite's Privacy Policy.
You can unsubscribe to general mailings at any time of the day or night by clicking the unsubscribe link at the bottom of any of our emails or by emailing customer service at info@brandauditors.com.
Audience Research Projects
Whether you're involved in one of our research projects as an audience member or a client, know that we do research in a way that respects your privacy and personal data.
Sometimes, businesses give us access to the data they already have on audiences to research on their behalf. So, for example, if you have booked a ticket or engaged with a business before, your personal contact data may be present in the data they give us.
At other times, we collect new data for businesses. As part of this, we would pass the personal details of research participants back to the company—but only if the participants have permitted us to do this.
If your personal contact details are contained in any data we use, know that protecting that information is important to us.
