We may collect information about representatives of our enterprise customers (“Requesters”), Requesters’ current and prospective employees, tenants, or customers (“Consumers”), website visitors, and others. The information we collect and how we use it depends on how you interact with the Services. 

Our use of information that is subject to the Fair Credit Reporting Act (“FCRA”) is governed by our Terms and Conditions for Consumers and Terms and Conditions for Requesters.

  • Feedback or correspondence, such as information you provide when you contact us with questions, feedback, or otherwise correspond with us online. 
  • Payment information needed to complete your transactions with us, including name, payment card information, and billing information. This information is processed by our payment service provider, Stripe, which may handle your payment information in accordance with its own privacy policy.

Please note that we may also receive some of this information from other users of the Services. For example, a Requester may provide certain information about the Consumers with whom the Requester is transacting or engaging.  

Information we obtain from third parties:

  • Social media. We may maintain pages on social media platforms, such as X, LinkedIn, Facebook, and other third-party platforms. When you visit or interact with our pages on those platforms, the platform provider’s privacy policy will apply to your interactions and their collection, use and processing of your personal information. You or the platforms may provide us with information through the platform, and we will treat such information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. 
  • Third-party login information. When you link, connect, or login to the Services with a third party service (e.g. Google), you direct the service to send us information (e.g., contact information) controlled by that service or as authorized by you via your privacy settings at that service.
  • Other sources. We may obtain your personal information from other third parties, such as publicly-available sources, and data providers.

Automatic data collection. We and our service providers may automatically log information about you, your computer or mobile device, and your interaction over time with our website and the Services, our communications and other online services, such as:

  • Device data, such as your computer’s or mobile device’s operating system type and version, manufacturer and model, browser type, screen resolution, RAM and disk size, CPU usage, device type (e.g., phone, tablet), IP address, language settings, mobile device carrier, radio/network information (e.g., WiFi, LTE, 3G), and general location information such as city, state, or geographic area.

Our advertising partners may also collect certain information (such as IP address) about visitors to our website www.truework.com for the interest-based advertising purposes described below.

We use the following tools for automatic data collection:

  • Cookies, which are text files that websites store on a visitor‘s device to uniquely identify the visitor’s browser or to store information or settings in the browser for the purpose of helping you navigate between pages efficiently, remembering your preferences, enabling functionality, and helping us understand user activity and patterns.
  • Local storage technologies, like HTML5, that provide cookie-equivalent functionality but can store larger amounts of data, including on your device outside of your browser in connection with specific applications.
  • Web beacons, also known as pixel tags or clear GIFs, which are used to demonstrate that a webpage or email was accessed or opened, or that certain content was viewed or clicked.
