Tier Circle Privacy Policy

Last Updated: September 2, 2025

This Privacy Policy explains how Partner Haven Consulting Inc. (“Tier Circle,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, stores, and protects personal information when you use Tier Circle (the “Platform”), including www.tiercircle.com and related tools or services.

By applying, joining, or using Tier Circle, you consent to this Policy.

1) What We Collect

We collect only what we need to operate the Platform and protect members:

  • Application Data: name, email, role/title, company, LinkedIn URL, and other details you submit when applying.

  • Private Performance Portfolio (PPP) Data: metrics, achievements, move criteria, and profile content you choose to provide.

  • Verification Evidence (optional): documents you upload (e.g., award letters, compensation statements, redacted CRM exports) and, if you choose, optional Zoom call details strictly for verification.

  • Website & Account Data: IP address, device/browser info, referral source, access logs, and basic analytics.

  • Communications: messages you send to us (e.g., support, verification notes).

We do not knowingly collect data from individuals under 18.

2) How We Use Information

We use your information to:

  • Review applications and determine eligibility (Sales ICs, curated membership).

  • Create and maintain your PPP and member experience.

  • Verify metrics and achievements (documents + optional Zoom call).

  • Enforce your recruiter visibility choices (Top-% badge, Exact Rank, or Hidden).

  • Communicate service updates, recruiter outreach notices, and important changes.

  • Protect the Platform, prevent abuse, and improve thresholds/leaderboards.

We do not sell your personal data.

3) Sharing & Disclosure

We share information only to operate the Platform, or when you ask us to:

  • Service Providers:

    • Squarespace (website/hosting)

    • Tally (forms submission)

    • Google Workspace (email)

    • Zoom (optional verification calls)

    • Other infrastructure or security providers as needed

  • Recruiters: Only when you turn recruiter access ON, and only the signals you selected (Top-% or Exact Rank). Recruiters never see your raw PPP page or raw documents.

  • Legal: If required by law, to protect rights, or to enforce our Terms.

We do not permit service providers to use your data for their own marketing.

4) Verification Evidence (Documents & Optional Call)

  • Your choice: You may upload documents and/or schedule an optional Zoom call for verification.

  • Redaction: You are responsible for redacting sensitive items; we only require enough detail to verify.

  • Access: Verification Evidence is accessible only to Tier Circle reviewers on a need-to-know basis. It is never shared with recruiters.

  • Retention: We retain Verification Evidence only as long as necessary to complete verification and for a limited audit window; thereafter, we retain derived metrics (e.g., verified totals, badges) in your PPP.

  • Deletion: You may request deletion of stored evidence after verification by emailing support@tiercircle.com.

Submitting forged or misleading evidence may result in removal from Tier Circle.

5) Your Controls & Choices

  • Recruiter Visibility: Your PPP is private by default. Recruiters see a Top-% badge or Exact Rank only if you turn access ON. You may switch to Hidden at any time (changes apply prospectively).

  • Access & Correction: You can request a copy of, or corrections to, your information.

  • Deletion: You can request deletion of your PPP and associated personal information, subject to lawful/operational retention needs.

  • Communications: You may opt out of non-essential emails. Service and security notices may still be sent.

Contact support@tiercircle.com for any request.

6) Cookies & Analytics

We use basic cookies and analytics (primarily via our site host and forms provider) to operate the site, understand usage, and prevent fraud. You can control cookies in your browser.

7) Security

We use industry-standard technical and organizational measures (encryption in transit, access controls, least-privilege access, and monitoring) to protect your data. If we become aware of a security incident affecting your data, we will investigate and notify you and/or regulators as required by law.

8) International Transfers & Region

Tier Circle currently serves USA and Canada. Your information may be processed in either country, subject to applicable law. By using the Platform, you consent to this cross-border processing.

9) Changes to this Policy

We may update this Policy as Tier Circle evolves. For material changes, we will provide notice (e.g., email or in-product). Your continued use after the effective date signifies acceptance.
