Introduction

This Privacy Notice explains how Deloitte Services LP or one of its affiliates (e.g., Deloitte Consulting LLP, Deloitte Tax LLP, Deloitte Financial Advisory Services LLP or Deloitte & Touche LLP) (“we”, "us" or “our”) uses the personal information collected from your use of the Application that links to this Privacy Notice (the “Application”). By using the Application, you agree to the use of your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Notice. As used in this Privacy Notice, "Deloitte Network" means DTTL and its member firms and their affiliates and related entities.

We offer the Application for use by the Deloitte Network firms and their respective clients. This Privacy Notice covers your use of the Application and the limited processing of personal information that we perform for our own purposes as a data controller as described below. This Privacy Notice does not apply where we process your personal information on behalf of another Deloitte Network firm as a data processor/service provider. If you have questions about the processing of your personal information or wish to exercise your personal information rights in connection with your use of the Application where we act as a data processor/service provider, please contact the Deloitte Network firm that decided to grant you access to use the Application, or refer to its privacy notice.

Personal information which we process as a controller through the Application
We collect the personal information you provide when accessing the Application (such as your name or email address).

The Application also collects standard Internet log information including your IP address, browser type and language, access times and referring website addresses. To ensure that the Application is well managed and to facilitate improved navigation, we or our service provider(s) may also use cookies (small text files stored in a user's browser) or Web beacons (electronic images that allow us to count users who have accessed particular content and to access certain cookies) to collect aggregate data. Additional information on how we use cookies and other tracking technologies and how you can control these can be found in our Cookie Notice.

How we use information about you
Your personal information collected by the Application as mentioned above may be used for the following purposes: (i) to create internal metrics related to the Deloitte Network and usage of the Application by entities of the Deloitte Network; (ii) to analyze and understand overall Application traffic information; (iii) to make improvements to the Application; (iv) to conduct analytics and benchmarking; and (v) to monitor and log Application usage.

To the extent that we possess any personal information about you that has been de-identified, we maintain and use such de-identified information without re-identifying such information. Such deidentified information is not subject to the terms of this Privacy Notice.

Disclosure of personal information to third parties
For one or more of the purposes outlined in the paragraph above, we may transfer personal information to other members of the Deloitte Network and/or third parties that provide services to us and/or the Deloitte Network.

All of these disclosures may involve the transfer of personal information to countries or regions without data protection rules similar to those in effect in your area of residence. In such cases, we will ensure that there are adequate safeguards in place to protect your personal information that comply with our legal obligations. The adequate safeguard might be a data transfer agreement with the recipient based on standard contractual clauses approved by the applicable authority for transfers of personal information to third countries.

The lawful basis for processing information as a Controller
We use your personal information for the purposes outlined above because of: (a) our legitimate interests in the effective delivery and improvement of the system; (b) our legitimate interests in the effective and lawful operation of the system; and (c) measuring content usage and understanding system performance impacts; so long as such interests are not outweighed by your interests.
