How we may collect data from you and how and why we use it

Collection and source of personal data When using the website, We will most likely collect your Personal data directly (via the data collection forms on our Site) or indirectly via our service providers and/or technologies on our Site. Further information is contained in the Cookie Policy and as appropriate provided in online data collection forms.

Types of personal data collected and used by us We may specifically collect and process the following types of Personal data:

Personal data identified by an asterisk in the data collection forms are compulsory as these are necessary to fulfil any orders placed. In the absence of this compulsory information, these transactions cannot be processed.

Please find details of the different data collected for the various purposes, in the chart (Annex 1).

Sensitive personal data

As a rule, we do not collect sensitive Personal data via our Sites. “Sensitive Personal data” refers to any information concerning a person’s racial or ethnic origins, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, union membership, health data, or data relating to the sexual life or the sexual orientation of a natural person. This definition also includes personal data relating to criminal convictions and offenses.

If it would be strictly necessary to collect such data to achieve the purpose for which the processing is performed, we will do so in accordance with local legal requirements for the protection of Personal data and, in particular, with your explicit prior consent, where appropriate and under the conditions described in this policy.

Personal information and children

Our site is for use by adult persons who have the capacity to conclude a contract under the legislation of the country in which they are located. Children users under the age of 16 years or without legal capacity must obtain consent from their parents or legal guardians prior to submitting their Personal data to the Site.

Purposes for which we use personal data

Personal data may be collected for the following general purposes (a more precise description of the processing of your data can be found in the Annex 1 below):

Legal basis for the processing of personal data

We process your Personal data as part of the performance and management of our contractual relationship with you, the services we provide to clients, for our legitimate interest to run our business, market and improve the quality and operational excellence of the Services we offer or in compliance with certain regulatory obligations depending on the purpose of processing as identified in the chart in Annex 1.

Your Personal data may also be processed based on your prior consent if under certain circumstances, your consent would be requested (e.g., regarding health data or for certain types of Cookies).

Please find more information about the legal basis for each of our processing in the Annex 1 below.

Transfer of personal data

As SODEXO is an international group, your Personal data may be transmitted to internal or external recipients that are authorized to perform Services on our behalf. Data protection law does not allow the transfer of Personal Data to third countries outside UK and EEA that do not ensure an adequate level of data protection. Some of the third countries in which Sodexo operates outside UK and EEA do not provide the same level of data protection as the country in which you reside and are not recognized by the European Commission or ICO as providing an adequate level of protection for individuals’ data privacy rights.

To guarantee the security and confidentiality of Personal data thus transmitted, we will take all necessary measures to ensure that this data receives adequate protection, such as entering into data transfer agreements with the recipients of your personal data based on the applicable standard contractual clauses (“SCCs”) or other valid transfer mechanisms and we carry out, in accordance with the European Court of Justice’s decision of 16 July 2020 “Scherms II” (Case C 311-18), a risk assessment of the transferred data. If you would like to receive a copy of the safeguards in place to secure data transfers outside the UK or European Economic Area, please contact the Data Protection Officer.

Disclosure of your information The security and confidentiality of your personal data is of great importance to us. This is why we restrict access to your Personal data only to members of our staff only to the extent strictly necessary to process your orders or to provide the requested Services. We ensure that persons authorized to process the Personal data have committed themselves to confidentiality or are under an appropriate statutory obligation of confidentiality.

We will not disclose your Personal data to any unauthorized third parties. We may, however, share your Personal data with entities within SODEXO and with authorized service providers (for example: technical service providers [hosting, maintenance], consultants, etc.) whom we may call upon for the purpose of providing our Services. We may disclose your personal information to any member of our group, which means our subsidiaries, our ultimate holding company and its subsidiaries, as defined in section 736 of the UK Companies Act 2006. This information is not routinely shared. It may be shared for the provision of joint services, for example IT support, Legal advice, debt recovery or HR support. It may also be shared for statistical analysis. Where appropriate a data sharing agreement is put in place. In the unusual circumstance that personal data could be shared with a Group Company outside UK/EEA standard contractual clauses will be applied.

We ensure that every disclosure of your Personal data to an authorized service provider is framed by a data processing agreement, reflecting the commitments laid out in this policy. We do not authorize our service providers to use or disclose your data, except to the extent necessary to deliver the Services on our behalf or to comply with legal obligations.

We may also share your Personal data (i) if the law or a legal procedure requires us to do so, (ii) in response to a request by public authorities or other officials or (iii) if we are of the opinion that transferring these data is necessary or appropriate to prevent any physical harm or financial loss or in respect of an investigation concerning a suspected or proven unlawful activity (iv) providing the service/contract, (v) fraud protection and credit risk reduction, (vi) to protect rights, property and safety or enforce our agreements, (vii) buy or sell business assets.

Storage limitation and accuracy

Sodexo will keep Personal Data that is processed accurate and, where necessary, up to date.

We will store your Personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected and processed. This period may be extended, if applicable, for any amount of time prescribed by any legal or regulatory provisions that may apply.

To determine the retention period of your Personal data, we take into consideration several criteria such as:

Please find more information about the storage period of your Personal data in Annex 1 below.

Security of your personal data

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect Personal Data against accidental or unlawful alteration or loss, or from unauthorized, use, disclosure or access, in accordance with our Group Information and Systems Security Policy.

We take, when appropriate, all reasonable measures based on Privacy by design and Privacy by default principles to implement the necessary safeguards and protect the Processing of Personal Data. We also carry out, depending on the level of risk raised by the processing, a Privacy impact assessment (“PIA”) to adopt appropriate safeguards and ensure the protection of the Personal Data. We also provide additional security safeguards for data considered to be Sensitive Personal Data.

Where We have given you (or where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access certain parts of our site, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential.

Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to our site; any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorized access.
