This Privacy Policy explains how IQ Lens (“IQ Lens”, “we”, “us” or “our”) collects, uses, stores and shares information when you visit iqlenstest.com, take an assessment, view or download a result or report, contact us, or use other features of the service.
The controller responsible for personal data processed through IQ Lens is [LEGAL NAME], operating as IQ Lens, at [REGISTERED ADDRESS]. Privacy questions can be sent to [PRIVACY EMAIL].
1. Information we may collect
Assessment and session data. This may include a session or player identifier, the questions presented to you, your selected answers, completion status, timestamps, time spent on questions or the assessment, raw and weighted scores, category-level results, generated report content, and technical assessment/scoring/version identifiers. We use these data to run the assessment, restore progress where supported, calculate results, generate reports, detect technical problems and improve the assessment.
Device and technical data. This may include IP address, browser and device type, operating system, language, time zone, referring page, pages viewed, error logs and security events. Some of this information is processed automatically when you connect to the service.
Local storage, cookies and similar technologies. We may use cookies, browser local storage or similar technologies to remember language preferences, assessment progress, consent choices and other settings. Optional analytics or advertising storage is used only where enabled and, where required by law, only after your consent. See our Cookie Policy for details.
Contact data. If you contact us, we may receive your name, email address and the content of your message, together with any information you choose to provide.
Purchase and transaction data. If IQ Lens offers paid digital reports or other paid features, we may process your email address, product purchased, transaction identifier, amount, currency, payment status, invoice/refund information and related customer-support records. Payment-card details are normally processed directly by the payment provider and should not be stored by IQ Lens unless explicitly stated at checkout.
Analytics data. If optional analytics is enabled and permitted by your consent settings, we may collect information about how visitors use the website, such as pages visited, test-start and completion events, device category and approximate traffic source. We do not use optional analytics before consent where consent is legally required.
We do not ask you to submit medical records, diagnoses, genetic data or other special-category health data in order to take the standard IQ Lens assessment. The assessment is not intended to diagnose a medical or psychological condition.
2. Why we process information
We process information only for defined purposes, including:
- providing the website, assessment, result and report you request;
- saving or restoring assessment progress where that feature is enabled;
- calculating scores and generating a personal report;
- maintaining security, preventing abuse and protecting the integrity of assessment content;
- diagnosing errors and improving reliability, accessibility and usability;
- responding to support or privacy requests;
- processing purchases, refunds and accounting records if paid services are offered;
- measuring product performance and usage with optional analytics where permitted;
- complying with legal, tax, accounting and regulatory obligations;
- establishing, exercising or defending legal claims.
Where applicable, our legal bases may include performance of a contract or steps requested by you, our legitimate interests in operating and securing the service, your consent for optional technologies or marketing, and compliance with legal obligations.
3. Automated scoring and profiling
IQ Lens uses automated rules to score assessment responses and generate an informational result and report. The scoring may include item weights, domain/category calculations and a versioned pilot conversion formula.
IQ Lens does not use this automated scoring to make decisions that produce legal effects or similarly significant effects about you. The result is intended for personal information and self-exploration and should not be used as the sole basis for employment, admission, medical, credit, insurance or other high-stakes decisions.
4. Pilot assessment data and research/improvement
IQ Lens may use aggregated or de-identified assessment statistics to evaluate item difficulty, completion patterns, reliability, distractor performance and other quality indicators. Where possible, product research and statistical analysis should use aggregated or de-identified data rather than directly identifying information.
If we later use identifiable assessment data for a materially different research purpose, we will provide additional notice and obtain consent where required.
5. How long we keep information
We keep personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including to provide or restore your result, maintain security, handle disputes and meet legal obligations.
Retention depends on the type of data and the service configuration. For example, active session data may be kept while it is needed to restore or complete an assessment; completed result data may be retained while the result/report remains available; security logs are generally kept for a limited operational period; purchase and accounting records may be retained for the period required by tax or accounting law.
When information is no longer required, we delete it, anonymize it or securely isolate it until deletion from backups is completed according to our normal backup cycle.
6. When we share information
We may share information with service providers that help us operate IQ Lens, such as hosting, cloud infrastructure, database/storage, content-management, email/support, analytics and payment providers. These providers may process data only for the services they provide to us and under appropriate contractual or legal safeguards.
We may also disclose information:
- to professional advisers such as lawyers, accountants or auditors;
- to authorities where required by law or a valid legal process;
- when necessary to protect users, IQ Lens, our rights, security or property;
- in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization or transfer of the service, subject to appropriate safeguards.
We do not sell your personal data in the ordinary meaning of “sell”. If a law gives “sale”, “sharing” or targeted advertising a broader statutory meaning and we introduce such practices, we will provide the required notice and opt-out controls before doing so.
7. International transfers
IQ Lens may use providers that process data in countries other than the country where you live. Where required, we use lawful transfer mechanisms and appropriate safeguards, such as adequacy decisions, contractual protections or other legally recognized measures.
8. Your privacy rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to:
- request access to personal data we hold about you;
- correct inaccurate information;
- request deletion of information;
- restrict or object to certain processing;
- receive certain data in a portable format;
- withdraw consent at any time where processing relies on consent;
- object to direct marketing;
- complain to a competent data-protection authority.
These rights may be subject to legal exceptions. To make a request, contact [PRIVACY EMAIL]. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request.
9. Children
IQ Lens is not directed to young children. If you are below the age at which you can lawfully consent to an online service in your country, you should use IQ Lens only with the involvement and permission of a parent or legal guardian where required.
If we learn that we have collected personal data from a child in circumstances where parental consent was legally required but not obtained, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.
10. Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse or alteration. No online system can be guaranteed to be completely secure, and users should avoid sending sensitive information that IQ Lens does not request.
11. Third-party links
The site may contain links to third-party websites or services. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies. IQ Lens is not responsible for third-party privacy practices.
12. Changes to this Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when the service, technology or legal requirements change. We will change the “Last updated” date and, where appropriate, provide additional notice of material changes.
