So, here’s the deal. When you interact with us, whether it’s through our websites, apps, or even offline, we’re collecting information about you. We’re talking names, addresses, email, phone numbers, credit card info, education and work history, and even some sensitive stuff like criminal history and your Social Security number. But before you start sweating bullets, know this: we’re not in the business of selling your soul to the highest bidder. We collect this information to serve you better, to personalize your MBA experience, and to provide you with the courses, programs, and services you need to crush it in the business world. Now, I know what you’re thinking. “What if I don’t want my information shared?” We hear you. That’s why we ask you about any specific  imformation we may share. Like a kind comment for a website or article testimonial. We consider it your data, your choice. But here’s the rub. There are times when we have to share your information, like when the law comes knocking or when it’s necessary to maintain your MBA+ certification. We’re not about to risk our reputation or your trust by playing fast and loose with the rules. And when it comes to security, we’re not messing around. We’ve got more technical safeguards than a Silicon Valley startup, all designed to keep your data locked up tighter than Fort Knox. But enough about us. Let’s talk about you. Want to see what information we have on file for you? Want to make a change? Just ask us. And if you’re a California resident, you’ve got some extra rights. You can request to see what personal information we’ve shared with third parties for their direct marketing purposes. Just email us with “Request for California Privacy Information” in the subject line, and we’ll hook you up. But here’s the bottom line. Privacy policies are about as exciting as watching paint dry, but they’re necessary. So, we’ve laid it all out for you here, in plain English. No legalese, no double-talk. At the MBA Board of Standards, Inc., we’re committed to protecting your privacy and securing your data. Because when it comes to your personal information, you’re the boss. So, read this policy, understand your rights, and let’s get back to the business of making your becomming a Certified MBA Professional™ and a MBA+™ or MBAe™. Now, go forth and conquer the business world, knowing your data is in good hands.
