factoHR’s Privacy Commitment

factoHR has worried about customer and user privacy for almost 20 years, long before it became fashionable, politically correct, or legally binding to take such a position. We ask for only the least amount of information necessary, gathering only what we believe is essential for doing business, or for the specific transaction at hand. We let customers know the information we have on them and allow them to opt out of specific engagements. But, by far, our biggest commitment is that we do not make a single dollar from advertising revenue—never have, never will— even from the free editions of our products. This means we avoid the fundamental conflict of interest between gathering customer information and fueling advertising revenue, and the unavoidable compromises in customer privacy that it brings. The goal of this policy is to make explicit the information we gather on our customers and users, how we will use it, and how we will not.

This privacy policy is intended to help the subscriber/user fully understands what information/data, factoHR is collecting, why factoHR is collecting it and how it is being managed. This document describes factoHR’s privacy policy. By visiting the website, the subscriber/user are accepting and all the terms, conditions, duties and liabilities that are described below.

This privacy policy lays out the following

Reason for data collected by factoHR and the reasons for its collection
