For example, We may record that you entered information into a particular form field, but not the information itself or We may record that you ran a particular report, but not the resulting details of the report.

Sharing and Disclosure of personal Information

We do not monetize any personal information processed in the service or sell it to third parties. We may disclose your personal information to a third party for business purposes. When We disclose personal information for a business purpose, We enter into a contract that describes the purpose and requires the recipient to both keep that personal information confidential and not use it for any purpose except performing the contract.

We may transfer your personal data for the purposes set out above,

  • To a relevant ASSA ABLOY group entity that may offer internal services across the ASSA ABLOY Group.
  • To 3rd party companies providing services connected to the purposes defined above.
  • Analytics providers who supply us with services for collecting and analyzing feedback and usage information.
  • Customers with whom you have engaged in a business relationship or contract.
  • We will disclose your personal information to third parties:
  • If We are acquired by a third party, in which case personal data held by it about its customers will be one of the transferred assets.
  • If We are under a duty to disclose or share your personal data in order to comply with law or any other legal obligation, or in order to enforce or apply our terms of use or terms and conditions of supply and other agreements; or to protect the rights, property, or safety of us, our customers, or others.

In the preceding twelve (12) months, We have NOT disclosed the following categories of personal information for a business purpose in accordance with CCPA.

We may transfer personal data outside of the EU/European Economic Area (“EEA”). We use the EU/EEA standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission to ensure a sufficient level of protection of your personal data, should personal data from a country in the EU or EEA is transferred to a country outside the EEA, and for which the EU commission has not issued an adequacy decision. These standard contractual clauses, as well as further information on international data transfers can be found here.

Security

We maintain reasonable security measures (including physical, electronic, and administrative) to protect personal data from loss, destruction, misuse, and unauthorized access or disclosure. For example, We limit access to personal data to authorized employees and contractors who need to know the information in the course of their work tasks.

We take your safety and security very seriously and We are committed to protecting your personal information. All information you provide to us is stored on secure servers. Where We have given you (or where you have chosen) a password that enables you to access certain parts of our service, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share a password with anyone.

Please be aware that, although We endeavor to provide reasonable security measures for personal data, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. No security system can prevent all potential security breaches.
