Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy describes how Man Overboard Systems ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and discloses your personal information when you visit manoverboardsystems.com (the "Site"). We are committed to protecting the privacy of our visitors while providing useful research on human capital management. By using the Site, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

Section 01

Information Collection

We collect several types of information for various purposes to provide and improve our service to you. This includes personal data such as your email address and name if you contact us directly. We also collect usage data, which may include your IP address, browser type, and the pages you visit on our Site. This information helps us understand how visitors interact with our HR software research.

Personal Data

Your name and email address — collected only when you initiate contact with our research team, submit a question, or request clarification about HCM solutions covered on the Site.

Usage Data

IP address, browser type, device information, time stamps, and the pages you view. This is gathered automatically and helps us evaluate which HR technology topics attract reader attention.

Section 02

Use of Data

The data we collect is used to maintain and improve the Site, notify you about changes to our services, and provide customer support. We also use aggregated, non-identifying data for workforce analytics research to understand general trends in the HR technology market. We do not use your personal information to market software products from third-party vendors without your explicit consent. Our focus is on providing independent information, not generating leads for vendors.

What We Do

  • Improve research articles and comparison guides
  • Respond to direct inquiries about HR management topics
  • Analyze aggregate readership trends in HR technology

What We Do Not Do

  • Sell your personal data to HCM vendors
  • Market third-party software without consent
  • Generate leads for payroll or talent management vendors
Section 03

Data Retention & Security

We will retain your personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy. We implement commercially reasonable security measures to protect your data from unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

Retention Approach

Personal data from direct correspondence is kept for the period needed to respond to and resolve your inquiry. Usage data is retained in aggregate form for ongoing research into workforce management and HR automation trends.

Security Measures

We rely on access controls, encrypted transmission where applicable, and routine review of our data handling practices. The Site does not process payments or store financial information, which limits the sensitivity of data we hold.

Section 04

Disclosure of Data

We do not sell or rent your personal data to third parties. We may disclose your information if required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities. We may also share information with service providers who assist us in operating our Site, provided they agree to keep your information confidential. In the event of a merger or sale, your data may be transferred to the new owner under the same privacy protections.

Legal Obligation

Disclosure may occur when required by law, court order, or legitimate request from public authorities.

Service Providers

Third parties that help operate the Site may receive limited data under confidentiality obligations.

Transfer of Ownership

If the Site is sold or merged, data transfers to the new owner under the same protections described here.

Section 05

Your Data Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights regarding your personal data, including the right to access, correct, or delete the information we have on you. If you wish to exercise these rights, please contact us at info@manoverboardsystems.com. We will respond to your request in a timely manner as required by applicable data protection laws. We believe in providing our users with control over their digital footprint.

Right 01

Access the personal data we hold about you and request a copy.

Right 02

Correct inaccurate or outdated information tied to your identity.

Right 03

Request deletion of your data, subject to legal retention duties.

Section 06

Third-Party Links

Our Site contains links to other websites, including HCM solution providers like Paycor or other industry resources. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of every site you visit. This policy applies solely to information collected by manoverboardsystems.com.

When our comparison guides or research articles reference cloud HR solutions such as Paycor, Workday, or similar platforms, those references are informational. We do not operate a Paycor employer login portal, and any login links direct you to the vendor's own website, which is governed by that vendor's terms and privacy policy.
