Privacy

As a visitor, you can use the Website without providing personal data. This Website only collects data that is clearly and voluntarily provided by visitors. This data may include: your name, current position, business address, e-mail address, telephone number and fax number.

We may also retain and maintain the content you have provided including entries on blogs, forums, wikis and other social media applications and services that we may provide.

We do not collect special personal data, such as data relating to race or ethnic origin, religious conviction, criminal record, physical and mental health status or sexual orientation of visitors. If necessary, we will ask for your express consent concerning the collection and use of such data.

This Website collects as standard internet logbook details such as your IP address, browser type and language, access time and referring website addresses. To ensure the proper management of this Website and the easiest possible navigation we, or our service providers, may use cookies (small text files that are stored in the browser of a user) or Web Beacons (electronic images allowing this Website to count how many visitors have visited a specific page and may gain access to particular cookies) for the collection of overall data. Additional information on how we use cookies and other tracking technologies and how you keep control over such is included in our cookie notice .

It may be the case that you provide personal data via this Website, to gain access to specific content for example, or to attend an event via this Website, to respond to a survey or to submit a request to issue notifications on a particular field of interest. In these instances the information you have provided is used to comply with your request and to attune and improve this Website and its associated services to your requirements. We may also use your personal data for marketing purposes, send you promotional material or notify you about services provided by entities within the Deloitte Network if we think they are of interest to you. We may also contact you to request feedback on services that have been provided by entities within the Deloitte Network or for marketing or other research purposes.

Your personal data may also be used to protect our rights or property or those of our users and, if necessary, to comply with legal proceedings.

You may at all times request us to no longer send you e-mails or notifications that are created in response to the personal data provided by you via this Website.

We may provide your personal data to other entities within the Deloitte Network so that you receive information that may be of interest to you, or to carry out market research or other forms of research. Personal data may also be provided to other entities within the Deloitte Network and others in order to comply with your requests (for information), as part of a business transaction, such as a sale, divestment, reorganisation, merger or acquisition, or when parties process information on our behalf.

Although it is possible that we provide information relating to visitors to service providers who process this information on our behalf, it is not usual that we share this information with third parties or other parts within the Deloitte Network for the benefit of secondary or unrelated purposes, unless they have been made public in another way during their collection.

It is, however, possible that personal data is transferred cross-border to other parts within the Deloitte Network or to third parties for the purposes as set out above. The above also means that there may be a transfer of personal data to countries or regions without legislation protecting personal data that is equal to the protection the visitor to the Website enjoys in his country of origin. However, each time we will take suitable measures in this respect, so that in a situation in which such transfer of data takes place, this transfer of data always takes place in a manner where there is an ‘adequate level of protection’.

By providing information via this Website, you are consenting to the disclosures as set out above.

This Website may offer space to various blogs, forums, wikis and other social media applications or services through which you can share content with other users (jointly referred to as ‘Social Media Applications  ’). Any personal data or other contributions from you to a Social Media Application may be read, collected and used by other users of such an application; we have little or no control over this. We are therefore not responsible for the use or abuse by others of personal data or other contributions from you to Social Media Applications.

Individuals wishing to exercise their rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), such as accessing or updating data, or who wish to unsubscribe for notifications for example, must contact the Deloitte Privacy office via the 'contact  ‘ link. Select the ‘Privacy’ subject and submit your request in the ‘Message’ field. In this document  , you will find an explanation of the submission of your request and what your request has to comply with. If your request does not comply with these requirements, we may not process your request. We refer current Deloitte employees to the internal website (MyDeloitte  ) if they want to submit a request. In all other cases, we process requests for access or amendment of data on the basis of the provisions in the applicable laws and regulations.

We have technological and operational security of a reasonable commercial standard to protect all the information provided by visitors via this Website against disclosure to, or inspection, change or destruction by unauthorised parties.

We may adjust or change this Privacy Statement from time to time as we see fit. If we make changes, we will amend the revision date stated above and the amended or changed version applies to you and your data from the date of revision. We recommend that you regularly read this Privacy Statement so that you are always aware of the way in which we protect your data.
