RESPONSIBILITIES

5.1 Sharing Personal Data with third parties: Personal Data processing activities involving more than one Processing Agent are a critical point for the Protection of Personal Data. In this sense, it is important to establish guarantees, define responsibilities and adopt measures to be observed when sharing Personal Data with third parties, whether Controllers or Data Operators.

The Company may share Personal Data with third parties in the development of its activities, always following the rules and principles of Personal Data Protection and Information Security. Sharing can be done with:

  • Public Authorities;

In any event, sharing must be formally mapped and identified in the Company’s internal controls.

Before sharing Personal Data, it is important to define whether the recipient will act as Controller or Operator in the Processing of Personal Data, with their responsibilities and requirements for sharing reflected in the most appropriate contractual instrument that will govern the relationship.

The Sharing of Personal Data with third parties must occur, as a rule, solely and exclusively: (i) to meet the purpose that justified the Processing of Personal Data, within the limits of the legal basis defined for that purpose; and (ii) in accordance with the activity that underlies the supplier’s and partner’s relationship with the Company. When another type of sharing of Personal Data is necessary that does not meet the conditions established above, it will be necessary to correspond to one of the legal bases established by the LGPD.

The third party must demonstrate that it has adequate guarantees, considering aspects of Personal Data protection and Information Security. Whenever possible, the third party must demonstrate that it is capable of complying with the Company’s policies and procedures that deal with the protection of Personal Data and Information Security.

The Company will not share Personal Data when there is a legal prohibition, contractual restriction or that results in an offense to the Holder’s rights provided for by law.
