Steering’s commitment to your privacy

The Steering website https://steeringhq.com is a privately owned digital product of Steering, a data-driven and mission-driven organization who collects publicly available information about colleges, universities, career consultants and advisors and coaches, educational institutes, and other partners and participants in the students’ career and college selection journey and life cycle.

Information that we collect

We gather information that the students or their families and loved ones (collectively called “You” here) share in their onboarding forms, and in the subsequent discussions. You might share more information such as your hidden career dreams, wishes, aspirations, your career plans, contact details, and other desires in your life.

Steering might use some third party services such as for the payments, for data processing and domain intelligence modeling, and for other use cases. In this case, the privacy policy practices of those organizations and agencies might apply when they get access to your data.

We use cookies, beacons, and other techniques, including some integrated social media and analytics tools to provide you a great user experience and to help our product build its intelligence. This information includes your machine’s IP address and location details, the operating system, and other technical details.

How we use this information

We use this information in our technology work—code, designs, marketing, sales, support, and building reference libraries.

We might need to share some of this information with our partners in universities and colleges, marketing partners, and sometimes with government departments or agencies if required in specific scenarios.
