Privacy Policy

Last updated 15 August 2026

Who we are

This site is operated by Oleg Petrenko ("we", "us"). For any question about this policy or about information we hold, contact oleg@olegpetrenko.com.

What we collect

Information you give us when you take an assessment. Your name, email address, age, sex, company, role, descriptor, years in role, the access code you were issued, and your answers to every assessment item. Sex and age are collected because scores are benchmarked against population norms stratified by sex and age; without them, results cannot be interpreted correctly.

Information you give us when you contact us. Anything you include in an email or an intake booking.

Scores derived from your answers. Trait scores, percentiles, and bands computed from your responses.

We do not use advertising trackers, and we do not sell or rent personal information to anyone, in any circumstance.

Why we use it

Solely to prepare, interpret, and discuss your assessment results with you in a private advisory session, and to communicate with you about that engagement. We do not use your responses for any other purpose without asking you first.

Where it goes

On submission, your responses are transmitted over an encrypted connection to a private workspace controlled by your assessor. Specifically: a record is written to a private Google Sheet, a file containing your responses and scores is saved to a private Google Drive folder, and a copy is emailed to your assessor. These are access-controlled and are not public.

We use the following third parties, each of which processes data on our behalf:

Assessment results are never delivered without a conversation

Results are discussed only in private, one-to-one sessions. You will not receive a score without context and interpretation. Assessment results are not shared with your employer, your board, or any third party unless you instruct us in writing to do so.

These assessments are not clinical instruments

The instruments used here measure normal-range personality traits for developmental and advisory purposes. They are not clinical or diagnostic tools, they do not screen for any medical or psychological condition, and they are not intended to inform hiring, promotion, or termination decisions.

How long we keep it

Assessment responses and the personal information above are retained only for the duration of the advisory engagement, and are deleted on written request to oleg@olegpetrenko.com. Correspondence may be retained longer where we are required to do so, or where it is needed to establish or defend a legal claim.

Your rights

You may ask us to give you a copy of the information we hold about you, correct it if it is wrong, or delete it. Write to oleg@olegpetrenko.com and we will respond within 30 days. Where you have consented to processing, you may withdraw that consent at any time; withdrawing it does not affect anything done before you did.

Depending on where you live, you may have additional statutory rights — for example under the EU or UK General Data Protection Regulation, or under California law. We will honour those rights where they apply to you.

Security

Data is transmitted over encrypted connections and held in access-controlled accounts protected by two-factor authentication. No system is perfectly secure, and we do not claim otherwise. If a breach affects your personal information, we will notify you and any regulator we are required to notify, without undue delay.

Recordings

We do not record advisory sessions without telling you first and obtaining your agreement. Where a session is recorded, the recording is stored under the same terms as your other information and deleted on the same basis.

Children

This service is intended for working professionals. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18.

Changes to this policy

If we change this policy, we will update the date at the top of this page. Material changes affecting how we use information already collected will be notified to affected clients directly.
