Your personal data may be transferred to a country outside of EU/EEA, such as Canada (commercial organisations), New Zealand, Switzerland and US (limited to the Privacy Shield framework)] which offer similar level of protection as within the EU/EEA. The transfer is based on the legal basis outlined in How we process your personal data and is for the purpose outlined in How we process your personal data. The transfer to these countries is based on the adequacy decision of the European Commission

Your personal data may be transferred to a country outside of EU/EEA, such as Australia, Brazil, Chile, China, Colombia, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, Peru, Philippines, Russia, Singapore, South Africa, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, UAE, United States, Venezuela, which may have a lower level of protection than within the EU/EEA.

What are your rights?

You are entitled to know what personal data we are processing about you. You have the right to request access to your personal data and you can request that we provide a copy of such data to you.  You are entitled to have incorrect personal data regarding you corrected and in some cases, you may request that we delete your personal data.

Limitation or deletion of your personal data may result in Multivista not being able to fulfil its commitments to you. You also have the right to request data portability, where your personal data would be extracted in a machine-readable format and transferred to another controller. Multivista may not always be obliged to comply with a request from you for deletion, restriction, objection or data portability. Additional circumstances, such as exercising the right of freedom of expression and information, compliance with a legal obligation, which requires processing by EU or member state law or processing for establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims can justify further processing by Multivista.  Multivista will assess the eligibility of your request and inform you about Multivista’s decision and reasoning.  Where you have given us your consent to process your personal data, you can withdraw your consent at any time and without justification. Where you withdraw your consent, certain personal data (only to the extent that it is absolutely required), will be retained on our ‘do not contact’ list.
