We do not conduct profiling activities nor take automatic decisions on that basis. Data we process about you will usually be obtained from yourself or from other companies of the Group of Sumitomo Bakelite Co., Ltd.
Retention of your personal data
Generally speaking, your personal data will be retained as long as necessary for the fulfilment of the above purposes. In most cases, this will result in us keeping most of your personal data for a period of 10 years, which may however be extended in the event of litigation.
Transfer of your personal data
To achieve better quality or efficiency in the processing of your personal data, we may enter into contracts with third parties to carry out said processing on our behalf and only according to our instructions. Client data can for example be transferred to transport companies charged with ensuring delivery of the products. Service providers to whom your personal data are transferred, are bound by specific agreements and are required to keep your data securely.
In addition, as part of our compliance with statutory obligations, we may share your personal data with custom authorities.
Additionally, disputes and other incidents may lead us, in exceptional circumstances, to share personal data about you with police and other law enforcement bodies.
In the context of internal reporting within the Group of Sumitomo Bakelite Co., Ltd. (i.e. the group to which Vyncolit belongs), your personal data may also be shared with other group companies.
If and to the extent your employer would be subject to a potential sale, your personal data may also be shared with potential acquirers as part of routine pre-acquisition due diligence processes.
Cross-border transfers of personal data
The technical processing and transmission of your personal data (whether within the Group of Sumitomo Bakelite Co., Ltd.or through third parties) may involve transmissions over various networks, including the transfer of your personal data to other countries.
That may also constitute a transfer to third countries outside the European Economic Area that do not provide an adequate level of personal data protection. In that case, SBE NV shall take appropriate safety measures in order to ensure that your personal data are sufficiently protected (for example by concluding standard contractual clauses concerning the transfer of personal data).
Currently, such transfers take place in the framework of SBE NV’s reseller business within the Group of Sumitomo Bakelite Co., Ltd., with offices currently located in Japan and the United States of America.
