COLLECTION OF
INFORMATION ON THE INTERNET
Our Web site may log a user's IP
address, browser type and
version, dial-up domain, and
computer operating system when
he or she visits the site. IP
addresses may in some cases be
linked to personally
identifiable information. We use
the tracked information to help
diagnose problems with our
server and to administer our Web
site. IP addresses of our Web
site users are used to diagnose
problems with our server, and to
administer our Web site. IP
addresses may also be used to
gather broad demographic
information—information that is
not associated with any
individual, and is anonymous.
Our Web site uses an order
form for customers to purchase
products and services. We
collect customers' contact
information (such as their name,
address, and e-mail address) and
financial information (such as
their account or credit card
numbers). We verify our
customer-provided credit card
information with a third party
prior to order processing.
Contact information from the
order form is used to send
orders to our customers. We also
provide mailings and other
marketing collateral regarding
product information and
releases. We also conduct
surveys during which
non-personally identifiable
information is collected. This
information will not be used
other than to garner survey
results. Users may opt out of
receiving any of the surveys by
contacting CPP by e-mail, mail,
or phone as noted above or by
selecting the appropriate option
during account setup or
modification once they are
logged into their account. We
reserve the right to aggregate
or compile and use data obtained
from the scoring or other
processing of products listed on
this site or otherwise sold or
licensed by CPP, and to utilize
these data for research, product
development, and statistical
analysis. Be assured that such
data are used in aggregate only
and never disclose any
individual's identity.
If a user chooses to sign up
to receive a CPP newsletter,
that user will be able to
unsubscribe from that newsletter
by clicking on the unsubscribe
link provided in the newsletter,
by e-mailing CPP Customer
Relations at custserv@cpp.com,
or by mailing CPP Customer
Relations at the address
provided below.
CPP collects the name and
e-mail address of the end user
(the assessment taker) for the
sole purpose of providing CPP’s
customers with assessment
results. CPP does not share this
information with any third
parties (other than the test
administrator).
Certain federal, state,
local, or other government
regulations may require that we
disclose personally identifiable
information about you. In such
cases, we will use reasonable
efforts to disclose only the
information required under
applicable law, such as in
response to a court order or
subpoena.
Our Web site may contain
links to other Web sites. We
have no control over the privacy
practices of such other Web
sites, nor should the link be
considered an endorsement of
such other Web sites' privacy
practices. We recommend that you
read the privacy policies of
such other Web sites.
COOKIES
Our Web site also uses
"cookies." Cookies are small
data files that certain Web
sites write to a user's hard

file tracks information as the

SECURITY
When a user pays for an
instrument or places an order
online (using
www.cpp.com,
online.cpp.com, or
www.skillsone.com), the
user's personal information and
credit card information are
processed and encrypted by
off-site, secure servers,
Verisign.com and cybercash.com,
using industry-standard SSL
encryption. SSL is short for
Secure Sockets Layer, a protocol
developed by Netscape for
transmitting private documents
via the Internet. We follow
generally accepted industry
standards to protect the
personal information submitted
to us, both during transmission
and once we receive it. No
method of transmission over the
Internet, or method of
electronic storage, is 100%
secure, however. Therefore,
while we strive to use
commercially acceptable means to
protect your personal
information, we cannot guarantee
its absolute security. If you
have any questions about
security on our Web site, you
can e-mail us at privacy@cpp.com.
Note: SSL is not used on the
discovery.skillsone.com,
mbtiresearch.skillsone.com,
www.fulfillment.cpp.com,
www.cppsurvey.com, and
www.response.cpp.com Web
sites because sensitive personal
information is not collected on
those sites.
CHILDREN'S USE OF THE
WEB SITE
CPP recognizes the importance of
children's safety and privacy on
the Internet. For that reason,
and in compliance with
applicable laws, we do not
intentionally collect personally
identifiable information from,
nor do we offer any content
targeted to children. We ask
that children under the age of
thirteen do not use our Web
site, as it is not targeted to
children.
WILL CPP DISCLOSE THE
INFORMATION IT COLLECTS TO
OUTSIDE PARTIES?
We do not share, sell, trade, or
rent or otherwise give to any
other entity or organization the
individual information our
customers submit when placing an
order or taking an instrument on
our sites except as noted in
this privacy policy. CPP does
provide its customers with the
individual information they need
to properly counsel or advise
their clients. In other words,
if you are taking an instrument
on our site at the direction of
a consultant, counselor, or
other individual, that
consultant, counselor, or other
individual will receive, from
CPP, individually identifiable
information so that he or she
may properly counsel or advise
you.
From time to time, CPP will
provide its approved
distributors in international
markets with a list of
customers, including name and
contact information, residing in
that distributor’s CPP-approved
area of distribution. CPP will
do so only when it reasonably
believes that providing such
information will permit improved
service to CPP customers in that
distributor’s area, and only
when the distributor’s use of
such information is in
accordance with CPP’s privacy
policies in general.
CPP has entered into a
strategic alliance with
ThinkWise, Inc. in order to
provide Myers-Briggs® ThinkBox,
CPP’s learning on demand portal
to its customers. ThinkWise has
signed an agreement obligating
it to abide by this Privacy
Policy. From time to time, CPP
and ThinkWise may share your
information to better market
this solution to CPP customers.
CPP will also, by necessity,
provide ThinkWise with customer
information when customers have
purchased licenses to
Myers-Briggs® ThinkBox so that
ThinkWise can support that
purchase.
We use outside shipping
companies to fulfill orders, and
a credit card processing company
to bill you for goods and
services. Similarly, from time
to time CPP uses third-party
vendors to assist in the
preparation and mailing of its
marketing materials. These
companies do not use personally
identifiable information for any
purposes other than those
directed by CPP, Inc.
If a customer neglects to pay
amounts due and owing to CPP,
CPP may send that CPP customer’s
name, contact information, and
account information to a
third-party vendor for
collection of overdue payments.
Other than as stated above,
if CPP provides a third party
with client information, it will
be in the form of aggregate data
and used for the purposes of
product development, research,
or statistical analysis. The
information will remain
anonymous, stripped of all
personally identifiable data,
and compiled among all of our
visitors' answers to survey
questions and instrument
responses as well as grouped
on-site behavior. Again, all
identifiable individual
information will be removed.
We reserve the right to
disclose your personally
identifiable information as
required by law and when we
believe that disclosure is
necessary to protect our rights
and/or comply with a judicial
proceeding, court order, or
legal process served on our Web
sites.
CPP may release account
information when it believes, in
good faith, that such release is
reasonably necessary to (i)
comply with law; (ii) enforce or
apply the terms of any of its
user agreements; or (iii)
protect the rights, property, or
safety of CPP, its users, or
others.
If you need to delete,
update, or correct the personal
information that you have
provided to CPP, please send an
e-mail to
custserv@cpp.com. You can
expect a response to your
request within 30 days.
