Therefore, we do not store your sensitive personal data except for those necessary for website analytics, business, legal, accounting and tax purposes.
But we must admit, that we have no control over the work of the Third Parties, social networks, messengers, hosting provider and tools, the services of which we use. We are not involved in their work and creation of such services that may or may not generate or collect your personal information somehow beyond our typological or website needs. That is why we decided to collect only limited amount of personal information from our visitors.
Therefore we are not responsible for the work and security of the Third Party plugins, a hosting provider and tools our website uses, since we are not the owners, licensors, employees or creators of such services. You should always understand that fact and we inform you about it, before you use our services and share some of your personal information.

We, “World Typology”, cannot delete your aforementioned personal information ourselves, but this probably can be done by the hosting provider we use (https://wordpress.com), as we, “World Typology”, do not have access to such a possibility and the interface we use does not allow us to fully influence your aforementioned data (except email).

How do we protect your personal information
We protect your personal data using modern services and applications of our hosting provider, strong passwords. We use SSL certificate that ensures that your connection with “World Typology” is more secure than with older certificates. Only few members of “World Typology” team have an access to website administration.
It is also important to inform you that by clicking and reading the typology test result pages, the hosting provider (https://wordpress.com) and administrators of our website can see your IP address and the page you opened. Therefore, to improve your privacy, we recommend that you click on different test results, thereby you will give fewer reasons for others to understand and remember what your true typology test result page is. This is in case you are worried about your test result and don’t want others to know about it except you. If you have received a result and believe it to be correct, we warn you that the test result may have a genetic and has a political predisposition. Therefore, if you share your result publicly, you take this responsibility upon yourself.
What procedures do we use in case of any data corruption or loss
If we notice corruption or loss of data, we will notify our hosting provider and our website visitors (on our website or through any other channel or social media page). Our main task is to find the cause of a damage and eliminate it. Once we’ve determined the cause, we will notify all visitors to temporarily not share their personal information with us until we’re sure everything is secure. We can block temporarily the work of our website or third party plugins we use. During such procedures, we may change our passwords, hosting provider, technically reinstall software and invite other specialists in order to avoid similar problems later.
