CREDARA™ Privacy Policy
How CREDARA™ Collects, Uses & Protects Your Information
This Privacy Policy explains how CREDARA™ (“we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and safeguards personal and professional information when you visit credara.ai, request resources, or participate in our verification, advisory, or related services.
Our aim is to treat your proof, data, and time with respect. This page outlines the key ways we do that.
1. Information We Collect
The information we collect depends on how you interact with CREDARA™. It may include:
- Contact details such as your name, email address, phone number, and location.
- Professional information including degrees, licenses, certifications, roles, and areas of practice.
- Verification materials such as case studies, outcome summaries, testimonials, and supporting documents you choose to upload or share with us.
- Usage data such as pages visited, links clicked, or resources requested on our website or emails.
- Technical information such as IP address, browser type, device information, and approximate location as provided by standard analytics tools.
- Communication history including emails, form submissions, and notes from calls or consultations.
We do not intentionally collect information from children or individuals under the age permitted to engage in professional services in their jurisdiction.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Respond to your inquiries and contact form submissions.
- Provide downloads such as the 7 Pitfalls PDF and related resources.
- Schedule and deliver services like the Credential-to-Capital Briefing or other advisory work.
- Review, organize, and interpret your proof as part of Proof Stack™ or other verification services.
- Send updates, Field Notes, and email communications you have requested or reasonably expect based on your relationship with us.
- Improve our website, offers, and educational content using aggregated or anonymized insights.
- Comply with legal, regulatory, or security obligations where applicable.
We do not sell your personal information. We may use anonymized or aggregated data (for example, “percentage of applicants with multi-degree profiles”) in our content and research.
3. Not Legal, Financial or Clinical Advice
CREDARA™ provides strategy, education, and verification-related services focused on treating credentials and outcomes as capital. Unless explicitly stated otherwise in writing, nothing we provide should be interpreted as legal, financial, tax, investment, or clinical advice. You remain responsible for consulting appropriate licensed professionals in those areas.
4. When We Share Your Information
We limit sharing of your information to what is necessary and appropriate. We may share information:
- With service providers who support our operations (for example, email providers, form tools, scheduling systems, or secure document storage), under appropriate confidentiality expectations.
- With collaborators or contractors who assist in verification or advisory work, where sharing is required to deliver the service you requested.
- With your explicit consent, if you ask us to share information with a specific person or institution.
- Where required by law, regulation, or a valid legal process, or to protect the rights, safety, or integrity of our clients, systems, or business.
We do not sell your verification documentation or contact details to third-party marketing lists.
5. Cookies, Analytics & Tracking
Like most modern websites, CREDARA™ may use cookies and similar technologies to:
- Keep the site functioning reliably and securely.
- Understand which pages are most visited and which resources are most requested.
- Improve user experience over time.
You can usually adjust your browser settings to decline cookies or alert you when they are in use, though this may affect how certain parts of the site function.
6. Data Retention & Security
We retain information for as long as it is reasonably necessary to:
- Provide the services you’ve requested.
- Maintain accurate records of verification and advisory work.
- Comply with legal, regulatory, or tax requirements.
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to help protect your information against unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. No system can be guaranteed 100% secure, but security and respect for your data are core to how we operate.
7. Your Choices & Requests
Depending on where you live and how you engage with us, you may have the ability to:
- Request access to the information we hold about you.
- Ask for corrections if information is inaccurate or incomplete.
- Request that certain information be deleted, subject to legal and record-keeping obligations.
- Opt out of non-essential email communications by using the unsubscribe link in our emails.
