- 3. How We May Use Your Personal Information
In this section, we set out the purposes for which we use your Personal Information and, in compliance with our obligations under applicable laws, identify the "legal grounds" on which we rely to process the information.
These "legal grounds" allow companies to process personal data only when the processing is permitted by the specific "legal grounds" set out in applicable laws. They are:- Consent: where you have consented to our use of your information;
- Contract performance: where your information is necessary to enter into or perform our contract with you;
- Legal obligation: where we need to use your information to comply with our legal obligations;
- Legitimate interests: where we use your information to achieve a legitimate interest and the reasons for using it outweigh any prejudice to your data protection rights; and
- Legal claims: where your information is necessary for us to defend, prosecute or make a claim against you, us or a third party. If you have consented to our use of information about you for a specific purpose, you have the right to change your mind at any time, but this will not affect any processing that has already taken place. Where we are using your information because we or a third party (e.g. your employer) have a legitimate interest to do so, you have the right to object to that use though, in some cases, this may mean no longer using the Services.
- Please note that in addition to the disclosures we have identified below, we may disclose Personal Information for the purposes we explain in this policy to service providers, contractors, agents, advisors (e.g. legal, financial, business or other advisors) and affiliates of Razer that perform activities on our behalf, as well as other members of the Razer group.
The purposes for which we use your Personal Information and the "legal grounds" on which we rely to process the information are:- To evaluate and communicate with prospective employees.
Use justifications: consent, legitimate interests (to enable us to evaluate your candidacy and manage our relationship with you). - To conduct background checks and other due diligence procedures on prospective employees, where applicable.
Use justifications: consent, legal obligation, legitimate interests (to enable us to evaluate your candidacy and ensure due diligence is performed on candidates). - To maintain recruitment records.

We may also need to transfer your Personal Information to that re-organized entity or third party after the sale or reorganization for them to use for the same purposes as set out in this policy.
Use justifications: legitimate interests (in order to allow us to change our business). - In connection with legal or regulatory obligations, or legal proceedings.

Where permitted, we will direct any such request to you or notify you before responding unless to do so would prejudice the prevention or detection of a crime.
Use justifications: legal obligations, legal claims, legitimate interests (to cooperate with law enforcement and regulatory authorities and to enforce our rights or defend ourselves). - Retention of Personal Information upon employment. If you are employed by us, any Personal Data provided to us during the recruitment process will form part of your personnel file and will be retained in accordance with our privacy policies applicable to Razer employees.

- Business sale or reorganization: Over time, we may buy new businesses or sell some of our businesses. Accordingly, Personal Information associated with the business being purchased or sold will be reviewed as part of the due diligence process and subsequently transferred as a business asset to the new business owner. We may also transfer Personal Information as part of a corporate reorganization or other change in corporate control.
- Sub-contractors and agents: We may use affiliates or other companies to provide services on our behalf such as data processing, human resources management and fraud prevention and detection.

- Receive the personal information that they have provided us with, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and you have the right to transmit that information to another controller without hindrance or ask us to do so; and

EEA individuals also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the EU Member State of their habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement if they consider that our processing of their personal information infringes the applicable data protection laws.

Transfers Outside of the EEA
This section applies to EEA individuals.
Your Personal Information may be accessed by staff, suppliers or other persons in, transferred to, and/or stored at, a destination outside the EEA in which data protection laws may be of a lower standard than in the EEA. We will, in all circumstances, safeguard personal information as set out in this Privacy Policy.
Where we transfer Personal Information from inside the EEA to outside the EEA, we may be required to take specific additional measures to safeguard the relevant Personal Information. Certain countries outside the EEA have been approved by the European Commission as providing essentially equivalent protections to EEA data protection laws and therefore no additional safeguards are required to export Personal Information to these jurisdictions. In countries which have not had these approvals (see the full list here http://ec.europa.eu/justice/data-protection/international-transfers/adequacy/index_en.htm), we will establish legal grounds justifying such transfer, such as EU Commission-approved model contractual clauses, or other legal grounds permitted by applicable legal requirements.
If you live outside the EEA, we will undertake best efforts to give you a similar degree of control over your privacy. - 7. Security of Your Personal Information
- We use physical, electronic and procedural safeguards to protect against unauthorized use, access, modification, destruction, disclosure, loss or theft of your Personal Information in our custody or control.
- We have agreements and controls in place with third party service providers requiring that any information we provide to them must be safeguarded and used only for the purpose of providing the service we have requested the company to perform.
- 8. Security Over the Internet
- No data transmission over the Internet or website can be guaranteed to be secure from intrusion. However, we maintain commercially reasonable physical, electronic and procedural safeguards to protect your Personal Information in accordance with data protection legislative requirements.
- All information you provide to us is stored on our or our subcontractors' secure servers and accessed and used subject to our security policies and standards. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access certain parts of our websites, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential and for complying with any other security procedures that we notify you of. We ask you not to share a password with anyone.
- 9. Retention of Your Personal Information
Our retention periods for personal data are based on business needs and legal requirements, which will differ depending on the jurisdiction or regulatory status of the Razer unit to which your candidacy relates. We retain your Personal Information for as long as is necessary for the processing purpose(s) for which the information was collected, and any other permissible, related purpose. When Personal Information is no longer needed, we either irreversibly anonymise the data (and we may further retain and use the anonymised information) or securely destroy the data.
If you have provided Personal Information to us via the Razer Careers website, you may also request for your Personal Information to be destroyed by clicking on the “Delete My Information” option under “Account Settings”. - 10. Updating Information
We will use reasonable endeavours to ensure that your Personal Information is accurate. In order to assist us with this, you should notify us of any changes to the Personal Information that you have provided to us by contacting us as set out in the "Contacting Us" section below. - 11. Your Rights
