We may disclose your personal information to the following categories of recipients:

• to Hager affiliates, third party service providers and partners who provide data processing services to us (for example, to support the delivery of, provide functionality on, or help to enhance the security of our Website), or who otherwise process personal information for purposes that are described in this Notice or notified to you when we collect your personal information;

We will process the personal information collected on our Website based on the necessity to manage our relationship with you, based on our legitimate interests which will depend on the personal information concerned and the specific context in which we collect it, or based on your consent.

If we ask you to provide personal information to comply with a legal requirement or to perform a contract with you, we will make this clear at the relevant time and advise you whether the provision of your personal information is mandatory or not (as well as of the possible consequences if you do not provide your personal information).

Similarly, if we collect and use your personal information in reliance on our legitimate interests (or those of any third party), we will make clear to you at the relevant time what those legitimate interests are.

We operate at a global level and, as a result, your personal information may be transferred to, and processed in, countries other than the country in which you are resident. In some cases, these countries may be located outside the European Union / European Economic Area (EU/EEA) and therefore may have data protection laws that are different to the laws of your country of residence.

Specifically, our Website servers are located in the EU/EEA, but we may share or give access to your personal information to Hager affiliates, third party service providers and partners who may be operating outside the EU/EEA (for example, we may use web hosting providers or cloud computing service providers who store or access your personal information outside the EU/EEA).

Where that is the case, we make sure that your personal information is transferred to third countries outside the EU/EEA that are deemed "adequate" by the European Commission (a list of adequate countries is available here), or alternatively, where your personal information is not sent to a country that provides adequate protection, we will put in place appropriate safeguards to guarantee that your personal information remains protected while it is being processed outside the EU/EEA in accordance with applicable privacy laws. These appropriate safeguards may include signing the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses with the Hager affiliate, third party service provider or partner outside the EU/EEA with whom we share your personal information. For further information about transfers of personal information outside the EU/EEA, please refer to the "How to contact us" section below.

We will retain your personal information for as long as necessary to enable us to fulfil the purposes described in this Notice and where we have an ongoing legitimate business need to do so (for example, to provide you with a service you have requested).

Once the purpose for processing your personal information no longer exists, or the period of retention has expired, or if you ask us to delete your personal information, we may continue to store your personal information for a limited period of time if necessary to comply with applicable legal, tax or accounting requirements.

When we no longer have a purpose to process your personal information, we will make sure your personal information is either deleted or anonymised.

We are committed to ensuring the security of your personal information. We utilize robust precautions to protect the confidentiality and security of the personal information within our Website, by employing technological, physical and administrative security safeguards, such as firewalls and carefully developed security procedures, for example, when you enter confidential information (such as login credentials or information submitted from within the Website). We encrypt the transmission of that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL). These technologies, procedures and other measures are used in an effort to ensure that your personal information remains safe, secure, and only available to you and to those you authorized to access your personal information. However, no internet, e-mail or other electronic transmission is ever fully secure or error free, so you should take care in deciding what information you send to us in this way.

The services we provide on this Website are not intended for individuals below the age of 18. If you are under 18, please do not provide your personal information on this Website.

• You may request access to and obtain a copy of your personal information.
  

• You may also request that any personal information that is inaccurate or incomplete be rectified or completed.
  

• You may request that your personal information be erased under certain legal conditions (for example, where the personal information is no longer needed to achieve the purposes for which the information was initially collected).

• Similarly, if we have collected and process your personal information with your consent, then you can withdraw your consent at any time. Withdrawing your consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing we conducted prior to your withdrawal, nor will it affect processing of your personal information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent.
  

• You have the right to complain to a data protection authority about our collection and use of your personal information. For more information, please contact your local data protection authority. Contact details for data protection authorities in the European Economic Area, Switzerland and certain non-European countries (including the US and Canada) are available here.
