• Gunnebo or our third parties’ legitimate business interests; or
• compliance with our legal obligations.

Where consent is relied upon, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time .

We do not sell personal information.

Who we share your Personal Data with

Gunnebo may share your Personal Data with people within the company who have a “need to know” that data for business or legal reasons, for example, in order to carry out an administrative function such as processing an invoice, or to direct a query that you have submitted to the relevant department within Gunnebo.

We may disclose your Personal Data to third parties including the authorities, Gunnebo’s advisors, suppliers of IT services and third parties engaged by Gunnebo for the purpose of providing services requested by you; to protect any intellectual property rights in any materials displayed on or otherwise available from Gunnebo’s website; for the purposes of seeking legal or other professional advice; to respond to a legal request or comply with a legal obligation; and to enforce Gunnebo’s website Terms and Conditions of Use.

We may disclose your Personal Data to third parties in the event that we sell, buy or merge any business or assets, including to the prospective seller or buyer of such business or assets.

Because Gunnebo operates globally, we may share the Personal Data you submit to us with any entity within the Gunnebo group worldwide. These entities are required to maintain the confidentiality of your data and are restricted from using it for any purpose other than the purposes set out in this Policy.

We may decide to allow users to share comments, postings, testimonials, or other information. If you choose to submit such information to us, the information that you submit may be available generally to the public. Information that you provide in these areas may be read, collected, and used by others who access them.

Finally, we may share non-Personal Data with other third parties that are not described above. When we do so we may aggregate or de-identify the information so that a third party would not be likely to link data to you, your computer, or your device. Aggregation means that we combine the non-Personal Data of numerous people together so that the data does not relate to any one person. De-identify means that we attempt to remove or change certain pieces of information that might be used to link data to a particular person.

We conduct due diligence and enter into data processing agreements with third parties to ensure that they provide sufficient guarantees for implementing appropriate technical and organisational measures.

Whenever we transfer Personal Data across borders, we take legally required steps to ensure that adequate safeguards are in place to protect your Personal Data and to make sure it is treated in accordance with this Policy.

When transferring personal data outside the eea or uk, we use approved safeguards such as standard contractual clauses or binding corporate rules to ensure equivalent data protection.

Security

Gunnebo takes all reasonable technical and organisational security measures to protect Personal Data from accidental or unlawful destruction, accidental loss and unauthorised access, destruction, misuse, modification or disclosure.
