    In connection with any of the purposes outlined in the “How we use your personal data” section above, we may disclose details about you to:
    • other members of the Victory Group;
    • third parties that provide services or online platforms to us;
    • IT service providers who support our IT systems and software or websites including providers of mailing services if applicable;

Any personal data that you contribute to these Social Media Applications can be read, collected and used by other users of the application. We have little or no control over these other users, so any information you contribute to these Social Media Applications might not be handled in line with this privacy statement.
  • Transferring your personal data outside the EU
    In connection with any of the purposes outlined in the “How we use your personal data” section above, we may disclose details about you to:
    • where we do business;
    • which are linked to your engagement with us;
    • from which you regularly receive or transmit information; or
    • where our third parties conduct their activities.
    These countries may have less stringent privacy laws than we do, so any information they hold can become subject to their laws and disclosure requirements, including disclosure to governmental bodies, regulatory agencies and private persons. In addition, a number of countries have agreements under which information is exchanged with other countries for law enforcement, tax and other purposes.When we, or our permitted third parties, transfer your personal data outside the EEA, we will ensure the recipients of that data will protect your personal data to the standard required in the EEA. We or they may also require the recipient to subscribe to international frameworks intended to enable secure data sharing.We may also transfer your personal data when:
    • the transfer is to a country deemed to provide adequate protection of your personal data by the European Commission; or
    • where you have consented to the transfer.
    If we transfer your personal data outside the EEA in other circumstances (for example, because we have to by law), we will make sure it remains adequately protected.We may share non-personal, anonymised and aggregated information with third parties for several purposes, including data analytics, research, submissions and promotional activity.
  • Protecting your personal data
    We use a range of measures to ensure we keep your personal data secure, accurate and up to date. These include:
    • education and training to relevant staff to ensure they are aware of our privacy obligations when handling personal data;
    • administrative and technical controls to restrict access to personal data to a ‘need to know’ basis;
    • technological security measures, including fire walls, encryption and anti- virus software; and
    • physical security measures, such as security passes to access our premises.
    The transmission of data over the internet (including by e-mail) is never completely secure. So although we use appropriate measures to try to protect personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of data transmitted to us or by us.
  • How long we keep your personal data for
    We seek to ensure that we only keep your personal data for the longest of:
    • the period necessary for the relevant activity or services as set out in our Data Retention Policy;
    • any retention period that is required by law; or
    • the period in which litigation or investigations might arise in respect of the services.
