Intro
Lodio's Privacy Policy describes how Lodio collects, uses and protects your personal data.
In addition to this privacy policy, we provide data and privacy information embedded in our interviews.
Please take the time to familiarize yourself with our privacy practices, accessible below, and contact us if you have any questions.
What is personal data at Lodio?
At Lodio, we believe that privacy is a fundamental right, and that right should be the same no matter where you live in the world. For this reason, we treat all data relating to an identified or identifiable individual, or otherwise associated or potentially associated with an individual by Lodio, as "personal data", regardless of the individual's place of residence. This means that data that directly identifies you, such as your name, is personal data. Data that does not personally identify you, but can reasonably be used to identify you, such as your interview, is also Personal Data. Aggregated Data is considered Non-Personal Data for purposes of this Privacy Policy.
This Privacy Policy describes how Lodio handles personal data, whether you interact with us on our websites, over the phone, or in person. Lodio may also include a link to third parties in its services or offer third party apps for download from our site. Lodio's privacy policy does not apply to how third parties determine or use personal data. We invite you to read their policies

We may also refuse to comply with a request if we believe that doing so would interfere with our legitimate use of data for anti-fraud or security purposes, for example if you request the deletion of an account. under investigation for security concerns. We may also refuse requests that jeopardize the confidentiality of third parties, frivolous or vexatious requests, or requests that would be extremely difficult to implement.
