FOR WHICH PURPOSES DO WE USE YOUR PERSONAL DATA?

We will process your personal data for the following purposes ("Permitted Purposes"):

  • Planning, performing, managing and administering your (or a third party to whom you are related) contractual business relationship with Capco, e.g. by performing transactions and orders of products or services, processing payments, performing accounting, auditing, billing and collection activities, arranging shipments and deliveries, facilitating repairs and providing support services or providing you with other services or things you may have requested. For the avoidance of doubt all such relationships are considered to occur on a business-to-business (“B2B”) basis;
  • Administration and video/audio recording of corporate events, training and business presentations to enable event participants/non attendees to access the recording;
  • Maintaining and protecting the security of our products, solutions, services and websites or other systems (and those of our clients), preventing and detecting security threats, fraud or other criminal or malicious activities;
  • Ensuring compliance with legal obligations (such as record keeping obligations), compliance screening or recording obligations (e.g. under antitrust laws, export laws, trade sanction and embargo laws or to prevent white-collar or money laundering crimes), which may include automated checks of your contact data or other information you provide about your identity against applicable sanctioned-party lists and contacting you to confirm your identity in case of a potential match or recording interaction with you which may be relevant for antitrust purposes;
  • Informing you, where permitted in accordance with local laws, within an existing business relationship about Capco's products or services which are similar or relate to such products and services which have already been purchased or used within that business relationship;
  • Solving disputes, enforcing our contractual agreements and to establish, exercise or defend legal claims, or;
  • Ensuring compliance with legal obligations, e.g. to keep sales records for tax purposes or to send notices and other disclosures as required by law.

Where you have expressly given us your consent, we may also process your personal data for the following purposes:

  • Communicating with you through the channels you have approved to keep you up to date on the latest announcements, events and other information about Capco’s products, technologies and services (including marketing-related newsletters) as well as events and projects of Capco;
  • Processing applications for job positions at Capco: See Capco’s Job Candidate Privacy Notice
  • Administrating and performing customer surveys, marketing campaigns, market analysis, sweepstakes, contests or other promotional activities or events, or;
  • Profiling and automated processing: Collecting information about your preferences based on your activities when you use our websites and any products, downloadable content (e.g. registration for a software download, eBooks, whitepapers) or other services we offer to you online. Based on this information (e.g. which content is downloaded, clicked or viewed for how often and how long), we create a user profile to personalize and foster the quality of our communication and interaction with you (for example, by way of newsletter tracking or website analytics).  The logic behind our profiling activities is to identify areas which may be useful or otherwise of interest for you and to inform you about such areas in a more effective and targeted way. The algorithms used apply this logic and automatically deliver the targeted content or information to you.

With regard to marketing-related types of communication (i.e. emails and phone calls), we will, where legally required, only provide you with such information after you have opted in and provide you the opportunity to opt out if you do not want to receive further marketing-related types of communication from us.
 
We will not use your personal data for taking any automated decisions affecting you or creating profiles other than described above or as explained in our Job Candidate Privacy Notice.

The legal basis for processing your personal data may differ depending on applicable local laws, but generally we consider that our legitimate interests justify the processing; we find such interests to be justified considering that the data is limited to browsing activities related to what is considered business or professional related (our website does not offer any content directed to individual consumers, nor any content which might be used for any inferences about your private life habits or interests). The information that we may receive directly from you is completely voluntary and at your option. Where consent is required specifically, we will obtain consent before processing.


HOW DO WE COLLECT AND USE PERSONAL DATA?

We will typically collect your personal data directly from you when you interact with us, e.g. when you visit our website, join our on-line events and presentations, communicate with us in relation to our products and services, submit an order, register to receive our newsletter or participate in our customer surveys. We do not obtain personal data from third parties except where you have utilised the services of a recruitment agency, where applicable. In such cases, you will be informed about this in accordance with applicable law.


WHERE DO WE PROCESS PERSONAL DATA?

Capco is a globally active enterprise. In the course of our business activities, we may transfer your personal data to recipients in other countries, including countries where we operate outside of the European Economic Area (“third countries”), in which applicable laws may not offer the same level of data protection as the laws of your home country. When doing so we will comply with applicable data protection requirements and take appropriate safeguards to ensure the security and integrity of your personal data. Typically, this will be by way of data transfer agreement, incorporating the current standard contractual clauses adopted by the European Commission for the transfer of personal data by data controllers in the European Economic Area to data controllers and processors in jurisdictions without adequate data protection laws. You may contact us anytime using the contact details below if you would like further information on such safeguards. 

Capco may transfer your personal data to the following countries:

 

HOW DO WE PROTECT YOUR PERSONAL DATA?

We maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards in accordance with the technical state of the art and legal data protection requirements to protect your personal data from unauthorized access or intrusion. These safeguards include implementing specific technologies and procedures designed to protect your privacy, such as secure servers, firewalls and SSL encryption. We will strictly comply with applicable laws and regulations regarding the confidentiality and security of personal data.


WITH WHOM DO WE SHARE YOUR PERSONAL DATA?

We may share your personal data as follows:

  • With our parent company Wipro Limited, affiliates within Capco Group worldwide, if and to the extent required for the Permitted Purposes and legally permitted. In such cases, these entities will then use the personal data for the same purposes and under the same conditions as outlined in this Data Privacy Notice;
  • We may also instruct service providers (so called data processors) within or outside of Capco Group, domestically or abroad, e.g. shared service centres, to process personal data for the Permitted Purposes on our behalf and in accordance with our instructions only. Capco will retain control over and will remain fully responsible for your personal data and will use appropriate safeguards as required by applicable law to ensure the integrity and security of your personal data when engaging such service providers;
  • With courts, law enforcement authorities, regulators or attorneys if legally permitted and necessary to comply with a legal obligation or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims;
  • With credit reference agencies and other companies for use in credit decisions;
  • We may also share your personal data with third parties if we sell or buy any business, in which case we may disclose personal data to the prospective seller or buyer of such business, along with its professional advisers. If Capco is acquired by a third party, personal data held by us about customers and other contacts will be one of the transferred assets.
    Otherwise, we will only disclose your personal data when you direct or give us permission (including when you agree to participate in social/corporate responsibility) or when we are required by applicable law or regulations or judicial or official request to do so, or when we suspect fraudulent or criminal activities.


HOW LONG DO WE STORE PERSONAL DATA?

We will hold your personal data for as long as necessary to provide the services, products or information you have requested, to administer your business relationship with us and to comply with our legal obligations, resolving disputes and enforcing our policies. 

Where your data is processed in accordance with a data processing agreement between us, we will comply with all specified data deletion requirements. 
If you have asked us not to communicate with you, we will keep a note of this as long necessary to comply with your request. 


YOUR DATA PROTECTION RIGHTS

Your rights may differ depending on applicable data protection local laws. We respect your right to be informed, access, correct, request deletion or request restriction, portability, objection, and rights in relation to automated decision making and profiling, in our usage of your personal information as may be required under applicable law.

  • To file a complaint for suspected or actual violations of your data protection rights with the relevant supervisory authority.


Right to opt out
