If you access or use the Services, UNFK will ask for, collect, and store Personal Data about you. We would not be able to provide the Services without the Personal Data you provide us, which is why we want you to know that we take our responsibility to protect your Personal Data very seriously.

6. Your Data Protection Rights Under the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR)

If you are a resident of the European Economic Area, you have the following data protection rights:

Legal Basis for Processing Personal Data

Our legal basis for collecting and using the Personal Data described above will depend on the Personal Data concerned and the specific context in which we collect it.

However, we will normally collect Personal Data from you only (i) where we need the Personal Data to carry out our obligations under the Terms; (ii) where the processing is in our legitimate interests and not overridden by your rights; or (iii) where we have your consent to do so. We have a legitimate interest in operating our website and communicating with you as necessary to operate the website, for example when responding to your queries, improving our website, or for the purposes of providing our Services.

In some cases, we may also have a legal obligation to collect Personal Data from you or may otherwise need the Personal Data to protect your vital interests or those of another person.

If we ask you to provide Personal Data to comply with a legal requirement or to perform a contract with you, we will make this clear at the relevant time and advise you whether the provision of your Personal Data is mandatory or not (as well as of the possible consequences if you do not provide your Personal Data).

7. International Data Transfers

Due to the international nature of our business, your Personal Data may be transferred to jurisdictions that do not offer equivalent protection of Personal Data as under the Data Protection Legislation. In such cases, we will process Personal Data or procure that it be processed in accordance with the requirements of the Data Protection Legislation, which may include having appropriate contractual undertakings in legal agreements with service providers who process Personal Data on our behalf.

[In particular, we may store and process your Personal Data in the United States. If you use the website from outside the United States, you acknowledge we may transfer your Personal Data to, and store your Personal Data in, the United States, which may have different data protection rules than in your country, and Personal Data may become accessible as permitted by applicable law, including to law enforcement and/or national security authorities in the United States.]

8. Automated Decision-Making

We will not take decisions producing legal effects concerning you, or otherwise significantly affecting you, based solely on automated processing of your Personal Data, unless we have considered the proposed processing in a particular case and concluded in writing that it meets the applicable requirements under the applicable laws and regulations, including the Data Protection Legislation.

9. How We Protect Your Privacy

We are committed to protecting the privacy and confidentiality of your Personal Data. We limit access to your Personal Data to our authorized employees or agents and we contractually require our business partners and service providers to limit their use of your Personal Data. We also maintain physical, technical, and administrative safeguards to protect your Personal Data against loss, misuse, damage or modification, and unauthorized access or disclosure.

The website may contain links to other websites or apps. Your access to and use of such linked sites is not governed by this Privacy Policy but, instead, is governed by the privacy policies of those third-party websites. We are not responsible for the Personal Data practices of such third-party websites. Please review the privacy policies of such sites before you disclose your Personal Data to them.
