5. International transfers

ANTALIS is an international group operating on a global basis. Like most international businesses, ANTALIS has centralised certain aspects of its client administration and records management in the European Union. In addition, where client projects span more than one jurisdiction, information will need to be accessed by all those within ANTALIS who are working on the matter. As a result, your personal information may be transferred outside the country of origin (which includes transfers outside the European Economic Area) and may be accessed across ANTALIS on a global basis.

ANTALIS will take all necessary security and legal precautions to ensure the safety and integrity of personal information that is transferred within ANTALIS to allow for global transfers within ANTALIS of personal information originating in the EEA in accordance with applicable European Privacy Laws through the use of the same standards of protection for personal information. Your personal information will therefore be given the same level of protection regardless of its location within ANTALIS.

Your personal information will also be accessed by ANTALIS’s service providers who may be located in other jurisdictions. For more information, see section 7 Service providers below.

 

6. Disclosures

ANTALIS may disclose your personal information (i) where this is necessary for the stated purposes, including within ANTALIS itself; (ii) if required by applicable law; (iii) in connection with a reorganisation or combination of our firm with another firm, (iv) if we believe that such disclosure is necessary to enforce or apply terms of contract and other agreements or otherwise protect and defend ANTALIS’s rights, property or safety; (v) in order to comply with a judicial proceeding, court order or other legal obligation, or a regulatory or government inquiry; or (vi) with your consent.

We would like to draw particular attention to the fact that in some jurisdictions, ANTALIS has a legal obligation to report suspicious transactions and other activity to relevant regulatory authorities under anti-money laundering, terrorist financing, insider dealing or related legislation. ANTALIS may also report suspected criminal activity to the police and other law enforcement bodies. We may not be permitted to inform you about this in advance of the disclosure, or at all.

Third party recipients of personal information relating to clients, business and firm contacts may include:

  • Tax and Customs & Excise authorities
  • Regulatory and other professional bodies
  • Stock exchange and listing authorities
  • Public registries of company directors and shareholdings
  • Providers of identity verification services
  • Credit reference agencies
  • The courts, police and law enforcement agencies
  • Government departments and agencies
  • Auditors and professional advisers (including professional indemnity insurers and advisers)

 

ANTALIS will use all reasonable efforts to disclose the minimum personal information necessary in each case.

 

7. Service providers

Third parties providing services to ANTALIS are referred to as “Sub-contractors.” ANTALIS will put in place contracts with Sub-contractors which address the requirements of relevant privacy laws. Sub-contractors will be required to use appropriate security measures to protect personal information and will be prohibited from using personal information other than as instructed by ANTALIS.

Sub-contractors who process personal information on behalf of ANTALIS may be located in Europe or other countries around the world. ANTALIS will ensure that Sub-contractors comply with any applicable legal requirements for transferring personal information outside the jurisdiction in which it was originally collected. For data collected in the European Economic Area or which relates to data subjects in the EEA, ANTALIS will require Sub-contractors to execute the Standard Contractual Clauses for the transfer of personal information to third countries, as sanctioned under applicable European privacy laws.

If you would like more information about the Sub-contractors we work with, please contact the Global Data Protection Officer by sending a request to the following dedicated email dpo@antalis.com.

 

8. Keeping your information up to date

ANTALIS makes every effort to maintain the accuracy and completeness of the personal information held by ANTALIS. To help us ensure we have the most up to date information about you, it is important that you inform us of any updates to your contact details or other personal information. Please contact your Client Relationship Partner or the person you usually deal with at ANTALIS. You can also contact ANTALIS' Global Data Protection Officer by sending a request to the following dedicated email dpo@antalis.com.

 

9. Retention

ANTALIS will retain personal information only for as long as it is needed for the purposes described in section 4 above: The information we collect and how we use it. Note that retention periods may vary in different jurisdictions. Personal Data is usually kept for a minimum period of 2 years and might be kept for an extra-period defined by the applicable statute of limitation.

We may need to retain information for significant periods of time in order to establish, exercise or defend our legal rights, and for archiving and historical purposes. Where possible and practical, personal information will be rendered anonymous through the removal, substitution or blocking of details which enable individuals to be identified.

If you would like more information about the retention policy, please contact the Global Data Protection Officer by sending a request to the following dedicated email dpo@antalis.com.
