The Apollonean Institute Pty. Ltd. is an ethical organization, and wants to reassure candidates of the privacy of their information.

What information is collected, and why

The Apollonean Institute requests only a minimum of name information in order to allocate a unique identifier to that candidate. The candidate may use pseudonyms if he or she desires. Gender and salutation are requested as the Apollo Profile personalized reports use personal pronouns such as him/her, she/he. Organization Name/Department are optional fields that may be used when part of an organization survey. Candidate age, address or email information is not requested. However if purchasing an Apollo Profile report online, the National Bank Secure Payments System will ask for email information to verify the payment transaction.

We will only record your email address if you send us a message. It will only be used for the purpose you have provided it, and it will not be added to a mailing list.

A series of statistically validated work-related questions are asked in order to compare candidate responses against others of the same level.

The Apollonean Institute does not request any “sensitive” personal information as defined in Section 6 of the Privacy Act 1988.

Purpose of collection of information

b) Organizations and professionals that are users of the Apollo profile system may request candidates/employees to complete the Apollo Profile questionnaire for various career assessment purposes, including training and development, selection/recruitment, or organization development.

How is information used?

Access
