Whenever we share personal information internally or with third parties in other countries, we have appropriate safeguards in place in accordance with the applicable data protection laws, including as applicable the EU standard contractual clauses (SCCs). As required under the applicable law, third parties are required to use appropriate safeguards to protect personal information, and they can only access the personal information that is necessary for performing their specific tasks.

HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?

Your personal information will be processed to the extent necessary for the performance of our obligations, and for the time necessary to achieve the purposes for which the information is collected, in accordance with our data retention policies and the applicable data protection laws. When we no longer need your personal information, we will take all reasonable steps to remove it from our systems and records or take steps to properly anonymize it so that you can no longer be identified from it.

We inform you that:

1. in case Unitedsky processes personal data on the basis of consent, the processing period lasts until the user withdraws this consent;

3. where Unitedsky processes personal data because it is necessary to do so due to applicable laws, the periods of processing for such purposes shall be determined by such laws;
4. in the absence of specific legal or contractual requirements, the basic data retention period for records and other documentary evidence produced during contract performance is a maximum of 10 years.

HOW WE PROTECT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?

We have put in place an internal framework of policies and minimum standards across all our businesses to keep your data safe. In addition, we limit access to personal information by our employees, business partners, service providers and third-party service providers to a ‘need-to-know’ basis. More specifically and in accordance with the law, we take appropriate technical and organisational measures (policies and procedures, IT security and others) to ensure the confidentiality and integrity of your personal information and the way it is processed.

WHAT ARE YOUR RIGHTS?

We will honour your rights under the applicable laws.  To the extent provided under your local data protection laws, including the European data protection laws, your rights include the following:

1. Right of access (‘an overview of your personal information’): the right to get an overview of your personal information that we process.
2. Right to rectification (“correct your personal information”): if your personal information is inaccurate or incomplete, the right to ask us to rectify or complete your personal information.
3. Right to erasure (“right to be forgotten”): the right to request that we delete your personal information to the extent permitted by the applicable law. In certain circumstances, it may not be possible for us to accept your request; for example, when the processing is necessary to comply with a legal obligation, or if the processing is necessary for the performance of a contract. In some cases, your personal information is necessary in order to provide the Services and if you do not provide such information to us then you may be precluded from accessing and using the Services or using certain Services features.
4. Right to data portability (“transfer your personal information”): the right to ask us to transfer your personal information directly to you. This applies to certain personal information if processed by automated means and with your consent or based on a contract you have with us.

5. Right to restrict processing: the right to request that we restrict or stop the processing of your personal information held by us for a certain period of time, or for an indefinite period. In certain circumstances, it may not be possible for us to accept your request; for example, when the processing is necessary to comply with a legal obligation, or if we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds otherwise.
6. Right to object: the right to object to the processing of your personal information. The reasons for an objection should relate to your particular situation, and be related to processing based on the legitimate interest condition. We will then no longer process the personal information, unless we can demonstrate compelling reasons otherwise. In certain circumstances, you have the unconditional right to object; for instance, in the context of direct marketing activities.
7. Withdrawal of Consent:the right to withdraw your consent to the processing of your personal information at any time; for instance, after you consented to us keeping you informed about our Services, you have the right to withdraw this consent at any time.
