Transmission of Information

For some business processes, it is necessary to pass on sensitive data relating to clients or partners to third parties. If this does not occur owing to a legal obligation, it must be checked in each instance whether it is in conflict with any interest of the data subject that merits protection. If the recipient is located in a third country, he/she must guarantee an adequate level of data protection in line with this statement. This does not apply if the data transmission is carried out owing to a statutory obligation, or to any other permissible legal obligation. The recipient must be bound under contract only to use the data for the specified purpose.

Transfers to Agents: Mitratech will obtain assurances from their agents that they will safeguard sensitive information consistently with this statement. Examples of appropriate assurances that may be provided by agents include, but are not limited to: a contract obligating the agent to provide at least the same level of protection as is required by the relevant Data Privacy Principles, being subject to the EU General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2016/679), or being subject to another European Commission adequacy finding. Where Mitratech becomes aware that an agent is using or disclosing sensitive information in a manner contrary to this statement, Mitratech will take reasonable steps to prevent or stop the use or disclosure. Mitratech may be required to disclose an individual’s personal information in response to a lawful request by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.

Mitratech will inform individuals about the type(s) of sensitive information it collects, the purposes for which it collects and uses sensitive information, and the types of non-agent third parties to which Mitratech discloses or may disclose information, and the choices and means, if any, Mitratech offers individuals for limiting the use and disclosure of their sensitive information.

Data Processing Limitations

Mitratech will use information only in ways that are compatible with the purposes for which it was collected or subsequently authorized by the individual, and will take reasonable steps to ensure that sensitive information is relevant to its intended use, accurate, complete, and current.

Information Security and Confidentiality

Mitratech has implemented industry standard security methods, technologies, and processes to safeguard sensitive information from unauthorized access and unlawful processing or disclosure, as well as accidental loss, modification, or destruction. All sensitive information is treated as confidential; any unauthorized collection, processing, or use of such data is prohibited. In the context of increasingly flexible company organization, it must be ensured that employees have access to sensitive data on a need-to-know basis only. The need-to-know principle means that employees may have access to sensitive information only as is appropriate for the type and scope of the task in question. This requires a careful breakdown and separation, as well as implementation, of roles and responsibilities.
