Individuals mentioned in intelligence  

(this applies only to intelligence provided at Awareness or Alerting level within our risk intelligence services)

Who we share your personal data with 

Service providers and subcontractors: Your personal data may be processed by our service providers and/or subcontractors (including but not limited to data storage service providers, developers, customer research and operations management companies, technical support and maintenance of the service) on instruction from Securitas Intelligence. All service providers and subcontractors act as Securitas Intelligence’s personal data processors and are under contractual arrangements only allowed to process data for the purposes as set out above. Furthermore, the personal data processor (service provider or subcontractor) and those acting under instructions of the processor will not access more personal data than is required for the performance of the service covered by the agreement with Securitas Intelligence. 

Securitas Group: Your personal data may be processed by companies within the Securitas Group that provide services to Securitas Intelligence such as product development, service delivery, support and administration. In such case, Securitas Group companies act as Securitas Intelligence’s personal data processor or joint controller with Securitas Intelligence. The personal data processor or joint controller may only process personal data in accordance with the purposes or instructions provided by Securitas Intelligence for the processing. If permissible under applicable marketing legislation, we may also share your personal data to other companies within the Securitas Group for their use as independent data controllers. 

Government agencies: Securitas Intelligence may share your personal data with government agencies (such as the police, the tax authority or other authorities) if we are required by law to do so, or if you have agreed that we do so. We may also share your personal data with government agencies when we believe in good faith that it is necessary to protect our rights, protect your security or the safety of others, investigate crimes, or respond to a government request. Government agencies that receive your personal data will be the data controller for such processing, which means that it is not Securitas Intelligence who governs how your personal data, if shared with an authority, is processed. Thus, if your personal data is shared with authorities, this Privacy Notice will not cover that processing. 

Other third parties: Securitas Intelligence will not sell, trade or in other ways forward your personal data to third parties outside the Securitas Group unless you have given a separate consent. 

Where we are processing your personal data 

Securitas Group: We may share your personal data to our subsidiaries or affiliated companies for the purposes set forth in this Privacy Notice. You consent to our transfer of your personal data to our subsidiaries or affiliated companies that may be established in a country outside the EU/EEA (i.e. a so-called third country), including countries which the EU Commission does not consider to have an adequate level of protection for personal data. Please be aware that countries which are outside the EU/EEA may not offer the same level of data protection as the EU/EEA and, thus, you may not have the same rights as under the laws applicable to us. 

Third party service providers: The personal data that we collect from you may be transferred to and processed by a third party service provider established in a country outside the EU/EEA (i.e. a so-called third country), including countries which the EU Commission does not consider to have an adequate level of protection for personal data. In such case we will take all necessary steps required under applicable law in order for such transfer of your personal data across borders to be compliant with applicable law. We will only transfer your personal data to a country outside the EU/EEA where; (i) the EU Commission has decided that the third country ensures an adequate level of protection, or (ii) where the transfer is being safeguarded by the use of EU model clauses (under Article 46.2 in the General Data Protection Regulation (2016/679) ("GDPR")). 

We may transfer your personal data to third party service providers established in countries outside the EU/EEA. You can find further information about the rules on data transfers outside the EU/EEA, including the mechanisms that we rely upon, on the EU Commission’s webpage. 

How we protect your data 

Securitas Intelligence takes appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data and Securitas Intelligence is constantly working to protect your personal data from accidental or unlawful destruction, loss or alteration, unauthorized disclosure of or unauthorized access to the personal data transferred, stored or otherwise processed by Securitas Intelligence. 

Your rights 

We respect your integrity and your rights under legislation related to the processing of personal data. The rights you have mean that you can request a copy of the personal data we process about you, you can request incorrect information about you to be corrected and even under certain conditions you can request erasure of information. You may also in some cases have the right to object to Securitas Intelligence's processing of your personal data and to exercise your right to data portability. 

Changes to this Privacy Notice 

We reserve the right to change this Privacy Notice. If we make material changes to this Privacy Notice, we will notify you by announcing the update of the Privacy Notice online or in another appropriate manner inform you of the updated version.
