Privacy Policy

PeopleOpsClub is a software research and comparison platform for HR and people operations professionals. The site is owned and operated by Northradarmedia (northradarmedia.com).

If you have questions about this policy or how your data is handled, you can contact us at the address listed at the bottom of this page.

Contact and enquiry data: If you submit a contact form, lead capture form, or request a quote, we collect the information you provide — typically your name, work email address, and company name. This information is used to respond to your enquiry or pass it to a relevant vendor as described at the point of collection.

Analytics and usage data: We use analytics tools (including Google Analytics or similar services) to understand how visitors use the site. This may include page views, session duration, referral sources, device and browser type, and approximate geographic location derived from your IP address. This data is aggregated and not linked to personally identifiable information.

Cookie and tracking data: Cookies, pixels, and similar technologies may record interactions with the site for analytics, performance measurement, and attribution purposes. See our Cookie Policy for full details.

Server logs: Our hosting infrastructure automatically records standard access logs including IP addresses, request timestamps, and pages accessed. These logs are used for security monitoring and are not used to build profiles of individual visitors.

To respond to your enquiries and connect you with relevant vendors where you have explicitly requested this through a lead capture or quote request form.

To measure and improve the performance of the site — including which editorial content is most useful, how buyers navigate the research journey, and where the site experience can be improved.

To manage sponsored placements and commercial relationships. If you are a vendor or agency enquiring about listings, your contact details will be used to manage that commercial relationship.

To fulfil legal and security obligations, including maintaining access logs for fraud prevention and regulatory compliance.

For visitors in the UK and European Economic Area, we process personal data under the following legal bases:

Legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f)): Analytics and site improvement activities, where our interest in maintaining a useful and functional research platform does not outweigh your privacy rights.

Contract performance (Article 6(1)(b)): Where you have requested a service or connection — for example, requesting a quote from a vendor — processing your data is necessary to fulfil that request.

Consent (Article 6(1)(a)): Where we rely on consent, for example for optional marketing communications, you can withdraw it at any time by contacting us or using the unsubscribe mechanism in any message you receive.

Legal obligation (Article 6(1)(c)): Where applicable law requires us to retain or process certain data, for example server logs for security purposes.

Enquiry and form submission data: Retained for up to 24 months from the date of submission, after which it is deleted unless there is an ongoing commercial relationship.

Analytics data: Aggregated analytics data may be retained indefinitely. Data associated with individual sessions is typically anonymised or deleted within 14 months in accordance with Google Analytics defaults.

Server logs: Standard access logs are retained for up to 90 days for security purposes.

If you request deletion of your personal data, we will action that request within 30 days subject to any legal retention obligations.

We do not sell, rent, or trade personal data to third parties for their own marketing purposes.

We share data in the following limited circumstances: with vendors you have explicitly requested a connection to through a quote request or lead form; with analytics service providers (such as Google) under data processing agreements; with hosting and infrastructure providers under appropriate data processing terms; and where required by law, regulation, or a court order.

Where data is transferred outside the UK or EEA — for example to US-based analytics providers — we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses or equivalent transfer mechanisms.

Under UK GDPR and EU GDPR, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

Right of access: You can request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.

Right to rectification: You can ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete data.

Right to erasure: You can ask us to delete your personal data, subject to legal retention requirements.

Right to restrict processing: You can ask us to limit how we use your data in certain circumstances.

Right to data portability: Where processing is based on consent or contract, you can ask for your data in a machine-readable format.

Right to object: You can object to processing based on legitimate interests, including profiling.

Right to withdraw consent: Where processing is based on consent, you can withdraw it at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below. We will respond within 30 days. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) in the UK or the relevant supervisory authority in your country.

PeopleOpsClub links to third-party software vendor websites, comparison tools, and external resources. These links are provided for your convenience. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites, and this policy does not apply to them.

Where we embed third-party tools (such as analytics scripts, video embeds, or advertising pixels), those third parties may set their own cookies or collect data independently. Our Cookie Policy describes the third-party technologies currently in use.

PeopleOpsClub is intended for business and professional use. We do not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 16. If you believe we have inadvertently received data from a minor, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our data practices, legal obligations, or site features. Material changes will be noted with an updated date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.

For any questions about this Privacy Policy, data subject access requests, or concerns about how your data has been handled, you can contact us through the Contact page or by writing to Northradarmedia, the operator of PeopleOpsClub.

We aim to respond to all privacy-related enquiries within 5 business days.
