However, we will normally collect personal data from you only where:

  • We need the personal data to perform a contract with you
  • Where we have your consent to do so, or
  • Where the processing is in our legitimate interests and not overridden by your data protection interests or fundamental rights and freedoms

Also, in some cases, we may also have a legal obligation to collect personal data from you. If we ask you to provide personal data to comply with a legal requirement or to perform a contact with you, we will make this clear at the relevant time and inform you whether the provision of your personal data is mandatory or not.

WHEN WE PROVIDE YOUR DATA TO OTHERS

There are certain circumstances in which we may disclose, transfer, or share your personal data with certain third parties without further notice to you, as set forth in this Policy.

Service providers

We may disclose your personal data to our service providers and/or suppliers to perform certain business-related functions on our behalf that help make Iorys Services available and functional. For this reason, we transfer your data to service providers which provide cloud and hosting services, IT security, maintenance and technical services, communications services, etc.

When hiring service providers, we take all necessary measures to ensure that our data controllers also implement appropriate organizational and technical security measures and keep the confidentiality of personal data.

Third parties for legal reasons

We may disclose your personal data where such disclosure is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which we are subject.

Third parties for re-organisation

Also, as we develop our business, we might sell or buy businesses or assets. In the event of a corporate sale, merger, reorganization, dissolution or similar event, personal data may be part of the transferred assets.

INTERNATIONAL DATA TRANSFER

In principle, Iorys does not transfer personal data outside the European Economic Union. Should such a transfer prove necessary, we will ensure that one of the following security measures will be applied:

  • The contract to be signed with the data recipient is based on the Standard Contract Terms approved by the European Commission
  • The data recipient is founded in a country recognized by the European Commission as having adequate data protection standards, or
  • A permission from the relevant supervisory authority
