carefully.

binding upon you.
If there are amendments or changes we consider to be of a major nature, you will be notified of these changes

The Service
The primary purpose of the Site is to:
-
Provide you with access to any Gradintelligence Institution services provided by your Institution; for
example the Digital document service used to access your Higher Education Achievement Report or the
Attainments service to support personal development.
-
Build an online profile to describe your employability characteristics and employment and further study
preferences.
-
Establish contact between providers of work, work experience, volunteering and further study
opportunities ("Client(s)") and opportunity seekers ("Student and graduate users", “you”).
If your Institution uses the Gradintelligence service to provide you with access to your digital
documents, the service will provide you with:
- Read access to your latest digital documents
- Information on updates to your digital documents
-
The ability to share your digital documents to allow third parties, which have been authorised by you,
to view and verify your achievements
- Information on any additional Institution terms and conditions that apply
Our Organisation Clients can search and target you for any opportunities that match your work and further
study preferences. If you are matched to an opportunity, your personal details are not revealed to the
Organisation until you make an application for an opportunity that interests you.
On your behalf, we may also provide your university or college with information about any job you accept
through our service to enable completion of their annual statistical returns to HESA and for analysis.
Your information and privacy
In addition to the personal data you enter into your Gradintelligence eProfile, if you are a student or graduate
user of a partner Institution, updates to your achievement records and digital documents will be received
automatically from the Institution. We will inform you when updated information is published.
You will have the option to take personality and ability tests in the Gradintelligence Assessment
Centre. The results of the personality and ability tests will be disclosed to you and feedback given. The
results of these tests are also used in the talent matching process by our Organisation Clients and for
analysis by our Institution partners.
Our Privacy Policy describes in detail the personal data we process
and how you can exercise your personal data rights.
