Information The IMPACT! Group Collects and Why
The IMPACT! Group collects information about our customers with whom we deal in our day-to-day business.
This information includes telephone and direct contact, intake and registration. It is used primarily to determine eligibility for our programs and services; but may also be used to provide useful data that is collected for purposes of sharing data with other service providers and information services. Data may also be aggregated and used for purposes of future funding and feasibility studies. In cases of this nature, only general information that does not identify individuals is used. This data may also be used for feedback on The IMPACT! Group’s services and programs in our continued efforts to improve the quality of our services.

Where allowed by law, The IMPACT! Group may aggregate information about individuals we receive from other sources with the information we receive directly from those individuals. The information described above may be retained and used by The IMPACT! Group after an individual ceases to use our programs or services.

If you agree, The IMPACT! Group may contact you by mail, e-blasts, telephone, or fax about services or special events which may interest you; and in some cases invite you to similar events. You have the right at any time to request that we remove your information from any mass marketing lists.

Transfer of Data to Third Parties
Except where dictated by law, The IMPACT! Group does not sell or rent your personal information to others. As described above, any transfer of data will only be conducted under the terms that are agreed to and allowed by our customers.

Credit Checks / Background Checks
The IMPACT! Group may conduct credit and/or background checks for purposes of determining whether an individual is eligible for some employment positions or for specific programs or services. In these circumstances, a signed authorization form is attained, which provides details of the use of the information being sought.
