1. Who Is Collecting Your Information

You have been invited by a prospective employer (your “Employer”) to complete a pre-employment assessment through Skillbase, a platform operated by Dealer Intelligence Group, LLC (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). The Company is an independent third-party technology provider. It is not your prospective employer and does not make hiring decisions. Hiring decisions are made solely by your Employer.

The Company acts as a service provider to your Employer with respect to your personal data. Your Employer is the data controller responsible for how your assessment results are used within their hiring process.

2.1 Identifying Information

Your name and email address (provided to us by your Employer when you were invited)

2.2 Assessment Responses and Results

Your responses to all assessment questions, including behavioral, situational judgment, and knowledge-based items
Computed scores, fit indices, and competency ratings generated by the Platform’s scoring algorithms
Personality trait profiles and narrative report content derived from your responses

3. How Your Information Will Be Used

3.1 By Your Employer

Your assessment results — including your scores, fit index, trait profile, and narrative report — will be shared with the Employer who invited you. Your Employer will use these results as one factor in evaluating your candidacy for the position for which you applied. Your Employer is responsible for using your results in a lawful, non-discriminatory manner.

3.2 By the Company

The Company will use your information for the following purposes:

To generate your assessment report and deliver it to your Employer
To maintain assessment integrity and detect invalid response patterns
To improve the Platform’s assessment instruments and scoring algorithms using de-identified and aggregated data
To comply with legal obligations

3.3 What We Will NOT Do

Important Notice We will not sell your personal information to any third party. We will not share your individually identifiable assessment results with any employer other than the Employer who invited you. We will not use your individually identifiable data to train third-party AI models without your separate written consent. We will not use your assessment results to make, recommend, or influence any hiring decision outside the engagement for which you were invited.

4. How Long Your Information Is Retained

Your Assessment Data will be retained by the Company for five (5) years from the date of your assessment completion. This retention period is maintained for the following documented purposes:

To support the statistical validation of the Platform’s assessment instruments by tracking correlations between assessment scores and real-world job outcomes over time
To maintain accurate normative benchmarks for role-specific and industry-specific comparisons
To support the Company’s legal defense in the event of employment-related claims involving your assessment
To comply with any applicable legal retention obligations

After five (5) years, your individually identifiable Assessment Data will be deleted or de-identified. De-identified data may be retained indefinitely for benchmarking and research purposes.

If your Employer’s account is closed before the five-year period expires, your Assessment Data will continue to be retained by the Company for the remainder of the five-year period for the purposes stated above, then deleted or de-identified.
