Our collection of this Personal Data will facilitate your visit to our websites in the future because we will be able to design Content that is relevant to you based on the location from which you access the websites.
• We will collect any information you provide to us when you use our contact forms (e.g., “Contact Us”, “Send Us a Message”, “Get Financial Updates” or “Contact Us to Talk to Us About Working Together”). Providing your Personal Data through our contact forms is not a legal or contractual requirement. However, please note that fields marked with an asterisk (*) are required as we need this information to fulfill or respond to your request. Other information or Personal Data you share with us when filling out our contact forms is at your own discretion. If you contact us, we will keep a record of this correspondence.

Our use of your data as described above is permitted by applicable data protection legislation because:

• it is necessary for our legitimate interests in pursuing the purposes set out above (i.e. to personalize the Content and to publish the most beneficial Content for you or to further develop and improve the website and systems), and that such interests are in any event not defeated by your privacy interests;
• it is necessary in some cases to comply with our legal or regulatory obligations, such as disclosures to certain authorities, regulators or governmental entities; or
• when it is necessary in some cases for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest, and in cases when we use special categories of Personal Data necessary for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims, or where the processing relates to Personal Data clearly in the public domain;
• in limited cases where it is processed with your consent, which we sometimes obtain from you, e.g. where you opt-in to receive marketing communications and newsletters by email. For more information about B2B communications, please see “Marketing Communications” below.

We retain your information for a longer period of time necessary to comply with our legal or regulatory obligations. The retention period of your Personal Data depends on the relevant purpose for which the data is processed and the relevant instrument in which the Personal Data is processed. It is not possible to indicate different retention periods in a sufficiently clear format within this Policy. The criteria used to determine the applicable retention period are that we will retain the Personal Data set out in this Policy for as long as (I) it is necessary for the relevant purpose, (II) it is necessary for the performance of our business relationship with you, (III) you have consented to, and/or (IV) it is required by applicable retention laws.

In order to facilitate our effective use of your information and to provide you with content and/or resources, we make your information available to third parties. However, such disclosure will only occur in the following circumstances:

• To suppliers, contractors and agents: we sometimes engage or employ other companies and individuals to perform certain functions on our behalf. This category of third parties includes:

You have the following rights under applicable data protection laws:

• The right to access and obtain a copy of your Personal Data

You have the right to request confirmation of whether we are processing any of your Personal Data.

In some cases, you may ask us to provide you with an electronic copy of your data.

• Right to rectification of your Personal Data

If you can demonstrate that the Personal Data we hold about you is incorrect, you may request that the Personal Data be updated or otherwise corrected. We encourage you, where possible, to access the Self-Service Portal and update your personal information directly.

• Right to erasure (right to be forgotten)

Under certain circumstances (as provided for in the relevant regulations), you have the right to request the erasure of your Personal Data. You may make such a request at any time and Talent Solutions will assess whether your request should be fulfilled.
