4. Where is your personal data processed and on what basis do we transfer personal data across borders?
If you consent to our use of third-party analytics and advertising cookies, your personal data will be processed by the analytics and advertising partners identified in our Cookie Policy, which provides a comprehensive and current list of these third parties, the tracking technologies they use, and links to their privacy policies.
We take measures to ensure that our service providers and other recipients in the United States provide an adequate level of data protection by entering into appropriate data transfer agreements based on Standard Contractual Clauses that have been approved by the relevant authorities and performing data protection assessments of data transfer arrangements as appropriate. For transfers from the United Kingdom, we rely on the UK Addendum to the EU Standard Contractual Clauses or the UK International Data Transfer Agreement, as applicable. For transfers from Switzerland, we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses as recognized by the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC). Data transfer agreements are accessible via the websites of the service providers identified in our Cookie Policy or upon request by contacting us at the details shown further below.
5. Are you legally required to provide personal data?
You are not legally required to provide us with your personal data, but if you do not provide us with personal data that we reasonably need to provide our websites, services or communications, or evaluate your job application, you may not be able to fully use our offerings or be considered for a job posting. If you do not allow us to collect information through cookies and similar technology, some parts of our websites and online services may not work properly or be as tailored to you as they could otherwise be, but they will still generally be usable. We will inform you of personal data that we reasonably need to fulfill the purposes in our privacy notices, such as by marking certain fields as mandatory on online forms requesting personal data from you.
6. How long do we retain personal data?
If you have entered into a commercial contract with us, we retain your personal data for as long as the contract is in effect and until any legal rights or obligations related to that contract have expired, except for business contact details which may be retained longer for follow-up business communication with the organization that you represent. The processing and retention of data which our business clients use in our services pursuant to a commercial contract is subject to such contract. If you have signed up for promotional information from us, we retain your personal data until you have unsubscribed, after which we retain a record of your decision to unsubscribe so that we can honor your decision. Notwithstanding the above, we may keep your personal data for a longer period if any of the following apply:
- Applicable laws, court orders, subpoenas or other legal directives require us to retain your personal data for a legally prescribed period, in which case we will keep that personal data for the legally prescribed time period before deleting it;
- Your personal data is relevant to potential legal claims by or against us, in which case we will keep that personal data for as long as the legal claims can be made or, if it has been made, for as long as the personal data is relevant to the resolution of the claims or any appeal thereto; or
- We need additional time to verify that the purposes for which we collected your data no longer apply, in which case we will delete the data following such verification.
When determining the appropriate retention period for your personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure, the purposes for which we process it, and applicable legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, or other requirements.
