Best Places to Work is committed to the highest standard of privacy. This includes the privacy of individuals and organizations that participate in the program, individuals who use the Employee survey Platform and individuals who visit the website. This privacy policy explains how BPTW handles personal and company data for those using our services and tools.
Best Places to Work protects the privacy of individuals taking our employee/HR surveys. We will not share, sell, rent, swap, or authorize any third party to use survey respondents email addresses for commercial purposes. Our surveys are strictly confidential and we do everything we can to protect the individuals and organizations that take our surveys.
We will not in any way reprint, resell, or redistribute your organization’s survey results to anyone, with the exception of Best Places to Work surveys, in which case general results and trends are shared with the publication.
Access to your organization’s results is available to HR leaders within your organization who use the information for organizational development purposes. Organizational data may be sliced by employee demographics, but will never identify individual employees or employee groups with fewer than five employees.
When our surveys ask for demographic information, it is for benchmarking purposes and to allow employers to view aggregate results by age, department, gender, etc.
Best Places to Work reserves the right to aggregate your data into comparative benchmarks that are presented to our clients or third parties. Under all circumstances, your organization’s data will be combined with multiple organizations, and your organization’s identity will never be revealed.
All participating companies in Best Places to Work program will receive an overview report after participating in the program. This report will show the overall score and a few specific highlights from the survey. Employers also have the option to have a more detailed report that will contain all survey results and comments along with the action plan.
We will not in any way reprint, resell, or redistribute an individual’s survey response or an organization’s results to anyone. Data we collect for research is always published and distributed in aggregate.
