We may provide aggregated data in respect of the Springday Services to our corporate clients so they gain insights about workplace wellbeing etc. However, no PII is provided with this data.
Where your information is no longer required for the purpose for which it was collected (for example if our agreement with your employer to provide the Platform comes to an end) and we have no legal obligation to retain the information, Springday will use reasonable endeavours to ensure that your PII is deleted, destroyed or otherwise de-identified.

Our corporate partners are not able to access the PII of their employees who use the Platform.
Third Parties Generally.
We may provide NPII (that does not allow you to be identified or contacted) to third parties, including where such information is combined with similar information of other users of the Springday Services.
