OUR PRIVACY POLICY

We are TiER1 Performance. You may also hear us referred to as TiER1 or via one of our brands: TiER1 Healthcare, Mercury, HSD Metrics, XPLANE, and TiER1 Impact. We partner with clients to activate strategies through people. We believe that, by helping people do their best work, we can help individuals and organizations realize their potential and ultimately create a better world. As part of that, we operate this website to provide free content, resources, and information on our services, as well as to realize the potential of our readers and their teams.

In order to best serve that content and the needs of our audience, we sometimes collect information from you. This privacy policy explains how we use any personal information we collect about you when you use this website.

What information do we collect about you?

We collect information about you when you fill out a form on our website. The primary information we collect is your name and email address. Some forms will ask for the company employing you, the industry you work in, your job title, your country, your phone number, or your department. Providing this information is always optional, however you may not be able to access all of our content. Website usage and email engagement information is collected using cookies through our partnership with Hubspot.

TiER1 will never share your contact information for marketing purposes with other companies.

Marketing

We primarily send our information through our email newsletter, which you have the option to customize to your preference. If you decide you would no longer like to receive emails (gasp!) or other marketing information, you may opt out at any time.
