Privacy Statement
Gradiant Corporation (“Gradiant”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) is committed to respecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy (the “Privacy Policy”) explains our practices regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of information that customers/users, employees,
prospective employees, third-party vendors and suppliers (“you” or “users”) may provide to us through your use of our website located at www.alkaLi3.com, our social media pages, and any other products or services that link to this Privacy Policy (collectively, our “Services”), or in connection with your employment with us or products or services that you
provide to us.
If you have any questions regarding this Privacy Policy, please contact us at [email protected].
By accessing the Services or by consenting to this Privacy Policy wherever mandated under the relevant applicable laws, you agree to be bound by this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy, please do not use the Services.
If we change this Privacy Policy, we will post any changes to the Privacy Policy on our website so that you are aware of the information we collect and how we use it at all times. Each time you use the Services, the current version of this Privacy Policy will apply. Accordingly, when you use the Services, you should check the date of this Privacy Policy (which appears at the top) and review any changes since you last reviewed the Privacy Policy. Where you continue to provide personal data to us as described in this Policy, or continue accessing the Services, this will constitute your acknowledgement and acceptance of a revised Policy.
Information we collect
We collect two types of information from you: “Personal Information,” which is information that you provide that can be used to identify you (such as your name, email address, etc. and including sensitive personal data or information such as financial information like bank account or credit card or debit card or other payment instrument details, physical, physiological and mental health condition, medical records and history, and biometric information), and “Aggregate Information,” which is information that cannot be used to identify you (such as frequency of visits to the Site, browser type, etc.).
Information you provide to us
We collect Personal Information that you voluntarily provide to us when you use our Services, in relation to your employment with us or when you provide products and services to us. For example, you may provide us with your contact information such as your email address, first name and last name, phone number, company name, or other Personal Information when you choose to submit such information to us through email, an online form, or other method (such as contacting us through our “Contact Us” Site feature).
Information we automatically collect
When you use our Services, we automatically receive and collect information about you and your device. This information includes the following:
Information about your device, such as the operating system, hardware, system version, Internet Protocol (IP) address, device ID, and device language.
The specific actions that you take when you use our Services, including but not limited to the pages and screens that you view or visit, search terms that you enter, and how you interact with our Services.
The time, frequency, connection type, and duration of your use of our Services.

Employment
If we have collected your Personal Information through our “Careers” page in response to a job opening, you are giving us permission to use and retain your information for the purpose of evaluating your application for employment consideration for the specific position that you applied to, as well as other roles at Gradiant. This Personal Information may be processed and stored by a third party talent tracking solution provider as well as with vendors, consultants, and other service providers who need access to such information to carry out work relating to the recruitment process on our behalf. If you apply to Gradiant through a third party platform that requires that you create an account, such as through LinkedIn, the privacy practices of those platforms will be governed by their own policies, and not by this Privacy Policy.
Collection of personal information by third parties
Some links on our Services may redirect you to third-party websites that we do not operate, which may include social media features, such as LinkedIn buttons or links. The privacy practices of those websites will be governed by their own policies. We make no representation or warranty as to the privacy practices or policies of any third parties, including the providers of third-party applications. If you are submitting information to any such third-party through our Services, you should review and understand that party’s applicable policies, including their privacy policies, before providing your information to the third-party.
Aggregate information collected
Aggregate Information is information that does not identify you. Aggregate Information may be collected when you use our Services, independent of any information you voluntarily enter. Additionally, we may use one or more processes to de-identify information that contains Personal Information, such that only Aggregate Information remains. We may collect, use, store, and transfer Aggregate Information without restriction.
Use of “cookies”
Like most websites, our Services may use “cookies.” Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that we transfer to your computer’s hard drive through your web browser to help us identify you when you come to our Services. You have choices with respect to cookies. By modifying your browser preferences, you have the choice to accept all cookies, to be notified when a cookie is set, or to reject all cookies. If you choose to reject all cookies you may be unable to use those aspects of our Services that require registration in order to participate. You can learn more about cookies and how they work at allaboutcookies.org. You can always disable cookies through your browser settings. Doing so, however, may disable certain features on our Services. You can opt-out from third-party cookies that are used for advertising purposes on the NAI website.
