Who We Are

Untapped Talent is a platform powered by the Canadian Council on Rehabilitation and Work (CCRW). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect personal information when you use Untapped Talent, including when you access third party services through the platform.

Our Privacy Commitment

CCRW is committed to protecting privacy and handling personal information with care. We aim to follow Canada’s fair information principles, including accountability, identifying purposes, consent, limiting collection, limiting use, disclosure, retention, safeguards, openness, individual access, and challenging compliance.

  • Payment processing through Stripe
  • Optional marketing communications where you opt in


Untapped Talent is built on Salesforce, and personal information collected through the platform is stored and managed within CCRW’s Salesforce environment, with appropriate security controls in place. This policy does not apply to third party sites once you leave Untapped Talent, or to information third parties collect directly under their own privacy policies.

When We Disclose Personal Information

We may disclose personal information in the following situations:

Security and Safeguards

We use reasonable safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the information to protect personal information against loss, theft, unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, or modification. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure.

Third Party Platforms

Untapped Talent integrates with third party platforms to support learning, employment tools, community features, payments, and information collection. When you use these services, personal information may be shared with the provider to enable access, and the provider may process information under its own privacy policy.

Absorb LMS

Some users access learning through Absorb LMS. Access uses single sign on, and an Absorb LMS user account is created using:


  • Email address
  • First name
  • Last name
  • The CCRW funding program the user accessed through CCRW (as a profile attribute used for the learning experience)


Once you are in Absorb LMS, your learning activity is processed within that platform. For more information, review Absorb LMS’s published privacy policy: Absorb LMS Privacy Policy.

Jobscan

Some users access Jobscan through Untapped Talent. To enable access and support coaching, we share:


  • First name
  • Last name
  • Email address
  • The CCRW coach assigned to the user

eSkills

Some users access eSkill through Untapped Talent. When you use eSkill, the provider processes information in accordance with its privacy policy. For more information, review: eSkill Privacy Policy.

Circle

All users can access our community forum hosted on Circle. To provision your forum profile, we share:

Marketing emails are optional. If you opt in, you can choose what information to provide. You can withdraw your consent at any time by using the unsubscribe link in any email or by contacting us.


Provider policy

For more information, review ActiveCampaign’s published privacy policy: ActiveCampaign Privacy Policy.

Retention

We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy, unless a longer period is required or permitted by law.


For transparency, Untapped Talent already publishes retention language in at least one related policy, stating that policy versions are retained for three years after expiry. You may choose to align privacy policy version retention similarly.
