Maritz Holdings Inc., on behalf of its subsidiaries and divisions (collectively,
“Maritz,” “us,” “we,” or “our”) is committed to building user trust and

protect the privacy of our customer and user data.  This Privacy Policy covers
all information collected through our Maritz Holdings Inc., Maritz LLC, MaritzCX
Research LLC, Maritz Motivation Solutions Inc., and Maritz Global Events Inc.
businesses, and their subsidiaries and divisions, including, without limitation,
Experient Inc.  For more information about our solutions and companies, please

Maritz has prepared this Privacy Policy to describe to you, or if you represent
an entity or other organization, that entity or organization, (in either case,
“you,” “your,” or “User”) our practices regarding the personal information that
Maritz collects, uses, and shares regarding our online informational platform
(the “Platform”) accessed through the website located at http://www.maritz.com/,
and any other websites operated by Maritz or its subsidiaries and divisions
(each, a “Site”) or using mobile applications provided by and on behalf of
Maritz or its subsidiaries and divisions (each, an “Application,” and each Site
and Application treated as a part of the “Platform” for purposes of this Privacy
Policy).  Capitalized terms not defined in this Privacy Policy, shall have the
meanings as defined in the Maritz Terms of Use, located at:
http://www.maritz.com/legal.

Maritz reserves the right, at any time, to modify this Privacy Policy.  If we
make revisions that change the way we collect, use, or share personal
information, we will post those changes in this Privacy Policy.  You should
review this Privacy Policy periodically so that you keep up to date on our most
current policies and practices.  We will note the effective date of the latest
version of our Privacy Policy at the end of this Privacy Policy.  

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully to understand Maritz’s views and
practices regarding your personal information and how we will treat it.  By
visiting this Platform, you are freely accepting and consenting to the practices
in this Privacy Policy.  You may withdraw your consent at any time and for any
reason with effect to future data processing by contacting us at the address
listed below in the Section titled “Communications”.  Without your consent,
Maritz will use personal information, only insofar as such processing is
permitted by applicable law (e.g., for the performance of a contract or
agreement between Maritz and you) or where such processing is necessary for
compliance with a legal obligation to which Maritz is subject.


COLLECTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

Through your interactions with the Platform, Maritz collects “personal
information,” which is information that identifies an individual or relates to
an identified individual.  Non-personal information means information that does
not directly identify an individual.  We collect both types of information about
you. 

The following provides some examples of the type of data that we collect from
you:

Context

Types of Data and Purpose for Collection

Registration Information

When you create an Account, we may collect your name, contact information, and
other Registration Information.  Such information shall be associated with your
Account, and you may update such information by editing the information
associated with your Account.

Cookies

We may use cookies and clear GIFs.  “Cookies” are small pieces of information
that a website sends to your device while you are viewing a website.  Among
other things, cookies allow us to provide you with a more personal and
interactive experience and to improve our marketing efforts.  If you choose to
disable cookies some areas or features of our websites may not work properly.

Demographic Information

We may collect personal information from you, such as your age, photo, or
location.

Digital Fingerprinting

We may from time to time use digital fingerprinting technologies in an effort to
protect and ensure the integrity of our Platform.  In general, digital
fingerprinting technologies assign a unique identifier or “Machine-ID” to a
user’s computer to identify and track the computer’s survey activity.  Maritz
will not use digital fingerprinting technology to collect personal information,
or track the online activities of the user of a computer, and will not disrupt
or interfere with the use or control of a computer or alter, modify or change
the settings or functionality of a computer.  The technology will analyze
publicly available information and data obtained from the computer’s web browser
and from other publicly available data points, including without limitation the
technical settings of the computer, the characteristics of the computer, and the
computer’s IP address, to create a unique identifier assigned to the computer. 
The unique identifiers are typically alpha-numeric IDs and after creating the
unique identifier, Maritz does not retain the information analyzed by the
technology to create the unique identifier.

Geo-Location Information

When you use one of our Applications or a badge or device provided by Maritz, we
may collect your location using GPS, Wi-Fi, cellular technology, Radio-frequency
identification (RFID), Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) beacon technology, or other
similar location-tracking technologies.  Maritz may capture proximity and
duration information for providing personalized products and services,
demographic analysis, or behavioral analysis.  Such information, and any derived
information, may be shared with third parties that have a relationship with
Maritz.

Email Interconnectivity

If you receive email from us, we may use certain tools to capture data related
to when you open our message, click on any links or banners it contains and make
purchases.

Employment

If you apply for a job posting, or become an employee, we may collect personal
information necessary to process your application.  This may include, among
other things, your Social Security Number or tax identification number.

Feedback/Support

If you provide us feedback or contact us for support we will collect your name
and e-mail address and possibly other personal information, as well as any other
content that you send to us in order to reply.

Mailing List

When you sign up for one of our mailing lists we may collect your email address
or postal address.   

Market Research Studies

We perform marketing research studies to collect data for research purposes. 
The information you provide is used for research analysis and we analyze the
answers in aggregate.  Information you provide in response to or in connection
with a market research study is and will be provided to our clients or other
entities or the public as part of cumulative market research information or
statistical data in the ordinary course, but without identifying you
individually, directly or indirectly.

Mobile Devices

We may collect information from your mobile device such as unique identifying
information broadcast from your device or hardware and software specifications.

Order Placement

We may collect your name, billing address, shipping address, e-mail address,
phone number, shipping preferences, and credit card number when you place an
order.

We may collect information that you provide as part of a co-branded or sponsored
promotion with another company or sponsor.  Such information may be shared with
the promotion partner or sponsor.

Sensitive Personal Data

We may collect a subset of personal information revealing racial or ethnic
origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, or trade union
membership, and the processing of genetic data, biometric data for the purpose
of uniquely identifying a natural person, data concerning health or data
concerning a natural person's sex life or sexual orientation.  Maritz will
collect sensitive personal data with your express consent or as otherwise
permitted by applicable law.

Surveys

When you participate in a survey we may collect additional information that you
provide through the survey.  If the survey is provided by a third-party service
provider, the third party’s privacy policy applies to the collection, use, and
disclosure of your information.

Third Party Tracking

We participate in behavior-based advertising.  This means that a third party may
use technology (e.g., a cookie) to collect information about your use of our
website so that they can provide advertising about products and services
tailored to your interests.  That advertising may appear either on our websites,
or on other websites.  You can opt-out of receiving advertising based upon your
browsing behavior from some network advertising companies by going to the
Network Advertising Initiative (http://optout.networkadvertising.org) and the
Digital Advertising Alliance (http://optout.aboutads.info/) websites.

Web logs

We may collect information from you, including your browser type, operating
system, Internet Protocol (IP) address (a number that is automatically assigned
to your computer when you use the Internet), domain name, click-activity,
referring website, or a date/time stamp for your visit.  In addition to
information stored by our servers, we may also use cookies and clear GIFs.  

In addition to the information that we collect from you directly, we may also
receive information about you from other sources, including third parties,
business partners, our affiliates, or publicly available sources.

SECURITY OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

Maritz has implemented reasonable and appropriate security measures to help
protect the personal information Maritz collects from loss, misuse, unauthorized
access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction.  Although Maritz attempts to

perfect, and Maritz cannot promise that your personal information will remain
absolutely secure in all circumstances.


RETENTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

Maritz will retain your personal information as needed to fulfill the purposes
for which it was collected.   Maritz will retain and use your personal
information as necessary to comply with Maritz’s business requirements, legal
obligations, resolve disputes, protect our assets, and enforce our agreements.


DATA INTEGRITY AND PURPOSE LIMITATION

Maritz limits the use of personal information to ways that are compatible and

You can make the following choices regarding your personal information:

Promotional Emails.  You may choose to provide us with your email address for
the purpose of allowing us to send free newsletters, surveys, offers, and other
promotional materials to you, as well as targeted offers from third parties or
Maritz’s clients.  You can stop receiving promotional emails by submitting a
request at the contact in the “Communications” section below or following the
unsubscribe instructions in e-mails that you receive.  Clicking on an

service-related communications.

Changes to Your Personal Information.  We rely on you to update and correct your
personal information.  Note that we may keep historical information in our
backup files as permitted by law.  All requests to correct your information must
be directed to the contact in the “Communications” section below.  

Access to Your Personal Information.  If required by law (for example, the EU
General Data Protection Regulation), upon request, we will grant reasonable
access to the personal information that we hold about a User.  All requests must
be directed to the contact in the “Communications” section below.

Deletion of Your Personal Information.  Typically we retain your personal
information for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this
Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by
law.  Some Users may have the legal right (for example, under the EU General
Data Protection Regulation) to request that we delete their personal
information.  All deletion requests must be directed to the contact in the
“Communications” section below.  We may also decide to delete your personal
information if we believe that the data is incomplete, inaccurate, or that our
continued use and storage are contrary to our obligations to other individuals

our active database, but it may remain in archives where it is not practical or
possible to delete it.  In addition, we may keep your personal information as
needed to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, or enforce any of
our agreements.

Revocation of Consent.  We rely on the processing of personal information that
you have provided.  If you revoke your consent for the processing of personal
information then we may no longer be able to provide you services.  In some
cases, we may limit or deny your request to revoke consent if the law permits or
requires us to do so, or if we are unable to adequately verify your identity.

Online Tracking.  We do not currently recognize browser signals of tracking
preferences, which may include "Do Not Track" instructions.

California Residents.  California residents may be entitled to ask us for a
notice describing what categories of personal information (if any) we share with
third parties or affiliates for those parties to use for direct marketing.  If

European Economic Area Citizens.  Where you believe that we have not processed
your personal information in accordance with the applicable provisions of the EU
General Data Protection Regulation, you may lodge a complaint with the
respective EU data protection authority (DPA).


CROSS-BORDER TRANSFER OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

Maritz may transfer your personal information to Maritz’s entities in the United
States, or to third parties as described in this Privacy Policy that are located
in various countries around the world.  By using Maritz’s Platform, or providing
any personal information to Maritz, where applicable law permits, you consent to
the transfer, processing, and storage or such information outside of your
country of residence where data protection standards may be different.  When
Maritz collects information in one country, and transfers it to another, to the
extent possible it applies the same level of data protection required under the
laws in the first country even when the data is in the second country.

Maritz safeguards and enables the global transfer of personal information in a
number of ways.  The following describes some of the protections that are taken
with regard to data originating from certain countries:

EU-U.S. Privacy Shield:  Maritz adheres to the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield concerning
the transfer of personal information from the European Union to the United
States.  Accordingly, Maritz follows the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield Principles
published by the U.S. Department of Commerce (“Privacy Shield Principles”) with
respect to all such data.  Maritz complies with the Privacy Shield Principles
for all onward transfers of personal information from the EU, including the
onward transfer liability provisions.  Maritz specifies in contracts with
service providers that handle the personal information collected by Maritz that
the personal information "may only be processed for limited and specified
purposes consistent with" the purposes laid out in this Privacy Policy.  Those
third parties agree to provide the same level of protection as the EU-U.S.
Privacy Shield.  In certain situations, if a third party that receives personal
information from Maritz takes an action that is contrary to the principles of
the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield, Maritz will be liable for those actions unless it
can prove that it was not responsible for causing them.  If there is any
conflict between the terms in this Privacy Policy and the Privacy Shield
Principles, the Privacy Shield Principles shall govern.  Compliance with the
Privacy Shield Principles may be limited, however, in certain cases to the
extent necessary to meet national security, public interest, or law enforcement
requirements.  All Maritz personnel with access to personal information are
obligated to familiarize themselves and comply with provisions of this Privacy
Policy.  To learn more about the Privacy Shield program, and to view the Maritz
certification, please visit https://www.privacyshield.gov/welcome and search for
the Maritz subsidiary or division.  A violation of Maritz’s commitment to
EU-U.S. Privacy Shield may be investigated by the Federal Trade Commission. 
With respect to personal information received or transferred pursuant to the
EU-U.S. Privacy Shield, Maritz is subject to the regulatory enforcement powers
of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission.


DISPUTE RESOLUTION

In compliance with the Privacy Shield Principles, Maritz commits to resolve
complaints about your privacy and our collection or use of your personal
information.  EU individuals with questions or concerns about our use of
personal information or our privacy policy should submit a written request to us
using the information in the “Communications” section below.

If your question or concern is not satisfied through this process Maritz has
further committed to refer unresolved EU-U.S. Privacy Shield complaints to JAMS,
an independent dispute resolution provider located in the United States. 
Information about how to file a complaint with JAMS related to our EU-U.S.
Privacy Shield program can be found at
https://www.jamsadr.com/file-an-eu-us-privacy-shield-or-safe-harbor-claim.  The
services of JAMS are provided at no cost to you.  Under certain circumstances,
EU individuals may seek redress from the Privacy Shield Panel, a binding
arbitration mechanism.

Maritz commits to cooperate with EU data protection authorities (DPAs) and
comply with the advice given by such authorities with regard to human resources
data transferred from the EU in the context of the employment relationship.
