ClassDojo HR Privacy Policy
Description:

ClassDojo E.U.-US Data Privacy Framework Human Resources Privacy Policy Effective August 9, 2023 ClassDojo, Inc (“Company” or “ClassDojo”) is committed to protecting the Personal Data that is collected concerning our prospective, current, and former employees (collectively, “Employees”) for management, human resources, and payroll purposes. This document sets forth ClassDojo’s HR Data Privacy Framework Privacy Policy (the “Policy”) governing the Company’s use of Personal Data in the context of its relationship with Employees. This Policy applies only to the Personal Data of Employees that is collected in the European Economic Area (“EEA”), United Kingdom (“UK”) or Switzerland, and that is transferred to Company in the U.S. The section “Description of Processing Activities” below describes the types of Personal Data that are collected. ClassDojo’s objective is to respect and protect Personal Data collected or maintained by or on behalf of the Company. In furtherance of the Company’s commitment to this objective, ClassDojo complies with the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (“EU-U.S. DPF”), the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF (“UK Extension”), and the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (“Swiss-U.S. DPF”) as set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce. ClassDojo 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” or “Principles”) with regard to the processing of Personal Data received from the EEA in reliance on the EU-U.S. DPF and from the United Kingdom (and Gibraltar) in reliance on the UK Extension (once formally adopted). ClassDojo has certified to the U.S. Department of Commerce that it adheres to the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework Principles (“Swiss-U.S. DPF Principles”) with regard to the processing of personal data received from Switzerland in reliance on the Swiss-U.S. DPF (once formally adopted). If there is any conflict between the terms in this Policy and the EU-U.S. DPF Principles or the Swiss-U.S. DPF Principles, as applicable, the Principles shall govern. To learn more about the Data Privacy Framework (“DPF”) program, and to view our certification, please visit https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/. In this Policy, we refer to the EU-U.S. DPF, the UK Extension and the Swiss-U.S. DPF collectively as the “DPF Programs”. With respect to Personal Data received or transferred pursuant to the DPF Programs, ClassDojo is subject to the investigatory and regulatory enforcement powers of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission and other authorized statutory bodies. In certain situations, ClassDojo may be required to disclose Personal Data in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements. Principles Notice. ClassDojo participates in and subjects itself to the DPF Programs. We set out below the types of Personal Data collected, the purposes for which ClassDojo collects and uses Personal Data, and the types (or identity) of Third Parties to whom the Company discloses or may disclose that Personal Data and the purposes for doing so. ClassDojo will provide notice in clear and conspicuous language when Data Subjects are first asked to provide Personal Data to the Company, or as soon as practicable thereafter. In any event, notice will be provided before the Company (i) uses or discloses the Personal Data for a purpose other than that for which it was originally collected or processed by the Company, or (ii) discloses it for the first time to a Third Party. Choice. ClassDojo collects Personal Data about its Employees for human resources or compliance related functions, including, without limitation, recruiting, onboarding, performance appraisals and payroll or benefit distribution (the “Purposes”). We will give you an opportunity to choose whether your Personal Data may be used for a purpose that is materially different from the purposes for which it was originally collected or subsequently authorized, or if we intend to disclose it to a Third Party (other than an Agent) that we have not previously notified you about. In such circumstances, we will notify you and offer you the opportunity to opt-out of such uses and/or disclosures where non-sensitive Personal Data is involved, and to opt-in where Sensitive Personal Data is involved. To request to limit the use and disclosure of your Personal Data, please submit a written request to privacy@classdojo.com. Accountability For Onward Transfers. [We set out below the Third Parties to whom we may disclose Personal Data, and the purposes for doing so.] We remain responsible for the processing of Personal Data received under the DPF Programs and subsequently transferred to an Agent if the Agent processes such Personal Data in a manner inconsistent with the Principles, or the Swiss-U.S. DPF Principles as applicable, unless we prove that we are not responsible for the event giving rise to the damage. Security. ClassDojo takes reasonable and appropriate administrative, technical and physical measures to protect Personal Data from loss, misuse and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and destruction, taking into account the risks involved in the processing and the nature of the Personal Data.
