DISCLOSURE OF YOUR INFORMATION

Where it is necessary for the performance of our contract with you or for our internal business processes, we may share your personal information with certain third parties. By submitting your personal information to us, you acknowledge that such third parties may receive and process your personal information. Integer asks all third parties to treat your personal Information securely and in accordance with this Policy or other contractual agreements to keep personal information confidential. Integer will take reasonable steps to enforce the security and confidentiality of your personal information.

We have shared personal information that we collect about you or that you provide to us with the following categories of third parties:

  • Affiliates: To our other group companies and our advisers. We have disclosed to our affiliates your Identifiers, Professional Data, and Other Information.
  • Government and Law Enforcement: In addition, it may be necessary to disclose your personal information if we are under a duty to disclose your personal information in order to comply with any legal obligation (such as anti-money laundering or anti-terrorist financing obligations), carry out an internal investigation, enforce our rights under any agreement, or protect the rights, property, or safety of Integer, our group companies and our clients, directors, employees or other personnel. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for the purposes of fraud protection and prevention.
  • Merger, Acquisition, or Bankruptcy: In exceptional circumstances, if we are sold or merged with another company we may disclose your information to a potential buyer, including your personal information and other information concerning your relationship with us, so that they can continue to provide the services you have requested.

INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS

The information that we collect from you may also be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside the European Economic Area (“EEA“). It may also be processed by staff operating outside the EEA who work for us or for one of our suppliers. This includes staff engaged in, among other things, the provision of support services. By submitting your personal data, you are acknowledging this transfer, storing or processing. We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your information is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy and the Data Protection Legislation. This means that we will only transfer your information to third parties that (a) are in countries that have been confirmed by the European Commission to provide adequate protection to personal information; or (b) have agreed to provide all protections to your personal information as set out in the Data Protection Legislation.

SECURITY OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

We will only keep your personal information for as long as we reasonably require and, in any event, only for as long as we have a legal basis, right or obligation to keep it.

Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure and, although we will take steps to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information transmitted via the Website; any transmission is therefore at your own risk.

If you wish to exercise any of these rights, please contact us at contact-integer@integer.net using the contact details set out at Section 1 above.

How to Exercise Your CCPA Rights

To exercise the rights described above, please write to us at contact-integer@integer.net and include “CCPA Rights Request” in the subject line of your message.

Before we can process your request, we need to verify your identity. During the verification process, depending on the nature of your request (e.g., whether you are seeking to access specific pieces of personal information or requesting a deletion of personal information) we will verify your identity against known information in our environment, such as your name, e-mail address, and telephone number. When we receive your request, we also may contact you via e-mail or by telephone to verify your identity. In certain instances (e.g., where there is a mismatch against known information in our environment or where you are seeking information on behalf of another person without authorization), we may seek additional verification from you, which may be in the form of providing a copy of a valid, government-issued identification or notarized attestation.

Exercising CCPA Rights for Someone Else

 

In order to designate a third party to act on your behalf, that person must be registered with the California Secretary of State and must have valid written evidence of authority from you to act on your behalf (e.g., a validly executed Power of Attorney or some other written, notarized documentation that the can provide to Integer). Absent such documentation, we reserve the right to refuse to comply with third-party requests for information.
