APi Group operates its Website out of the United States, and information you provide to us will reside on servers in the United States. The data protection laws in the United States may not be the same as the data protection laws in your home country.

GDPR\UK-GDPR and EEA Data Subjects’ Rights

The European Union (EU) General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) is a privacy law that affords certain rights relating to the personal information of individuals in the European Economic Area (“EEA”). The United Kingdom (“UK”)’s General Data Protection Regulation (“UK-GDPR”) is a similar privacy law that affords certain rights relating to the personal information of individuals in the United Kingdom. Specifically, if you are in the EEA or the UK, you have the following rights:

• Access. You have the right to request a copy of the personal information we are processing about you. For your own privacy and security, in our discretion we may require you to prove your identity before providing the requested information.
• Rectification. You have the right to have incomplete or inaccurate personal information that we process about you corrected.
• Deletion. You have the right to request that we delete personal information that we process about you, except we are not obliged to do so if we need to retain such personal information in order to comply with a legal obligation or to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
• Restriction. You have the right to restrict our processing of your personal information where you believe such data to be inaccurate, our processing is unlawful or that we no longer need to process such information for a particular purpose, but where we are not able to delete the information due to a legal or other obligation or because you do not wish for us to delete it. In such case, we would mark stored personal information with the aim of limiting particular processing for particular purposes in accordance with your request, or otherwise restrict its processing.
• Portability. You have the right to obtain personal information we hold about you, in a structured, electronic format, and to transmit such data to another data controller, where this is (a) personal information which you have provided to us, and (b) if we are processing that data on the basis of your consent or to perform a contract with you and (c) the data is processed by automated means. Additionally, you have the right to require us to transmit such personal information directly to another controller, where technically feasible. This right is not applicable if it adversely affects the rights and freedoms of others.
• Objection. Where the legal justification for our processing of your personal information is our legitimate interest, you have the right to object to such processing on grounds relating to your particular situation. We will abide by your request unless we have compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests and rights, or if we need to continue to process the data for the establishment, exercise or defense of a legal claim.
• Withdrawing Consent. If you have consented to our processing of your personal information, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time, free of charge. This includes where you wish to opt out from marketing messages (where we have previously requested your consent for these).

You will not typically need to pay a fee for access to your personal information (or to exercise any of the other rights). But we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive, or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances. Please also note that we may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that personal information is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.

You can exercise your rights by contacting us as set out in the contact section below.

Additional information on your rights under the UK-GDPR is available in English from the United Kingdom’s Information Commissioner’s Office. For residents of other EEA countries, please see the website of your applicable Information Commissioner. If you are located in the EU and have a concern about our processing of your data, you may have the right to make a complaint to the appropriate data protection authority in the EU.

For the personal information that we collect from you, APi Group acts as a “controller” under the GDPR and UK-GDPR. As discussed above, we use data for a variety of different purposes. The purposes of processing, nature of the information and our lawful basis for processing are set out in the table below:

Purpose	Information	Lawful Basis
To provide you with requested information, and respond to your questions, including directing you to the appropriate APi Group website.	Nature of enquiry, location, Customer No (if existing customer), contact information, message content and IP address	Legitimate interests
To process and deliver your order for our products and/or services.	Contact information, shipping or delivery address, and content	Performance of a contract
Respond to your enquiry request or further process your submitted form	Nature of enquiry, location, Customer No (if existing customer), contact information, message content and IP address	Legitimate interest
Analyze your behavior on our Website and applications , in order to improve our products, services, Websites and applications	IP address, log files.	Legitimate interest; Consent (where your consent is required by law)
Respond to a legitimate legal request from law enforcement authorities or other government regulators	Contact information	Compliance with legal obligations
Conduct investigations to ensure compliance with, and comply with, legal obligations	Contact information	Compliance with legal obligations

Most of the time, that lawful basis will either be to (1) perform a contractual obligation with you, (2) fulfill legitimate business interests, (3) comply with a legal obligation, or (4) conduct processing to which you have specifically consented.

For example, we need to process your personal data in order provide you with information and services that you may have requested. In that circumstance, our lawful basis for processing your personal information will be to satisfy your request with your consent. Likewise, it may be necessary to our legitimate business interests of growing and continuing our services for us to use your personal information in order to provide you with information regarding our activities and identify services that may be beneficial to you.

Please note that, if you submit personal information to us through the Website, that information will be stored on our servers in the United States. We only transfer your personal information with your consent, to perform a contract with or an obligation to you, or to fulfill a compelling legitimate interest that does not outweigh your rights and freedoms.

Changes to this Privacy Policy

Please note that we may change this Policy from time to time. If there are changes to our Privacy Policy, we will post them here and update the “Last Updated” date at the top of this Privacy Policy. Continued use of this Website after any changes is deemed to be acceptance of those changes. Accordingly, we encourage you to check the Privacy Policy periodically for updates.

If any portion of this State Privacy Notice conflicts with our Privacy Policy, this State Privacy Notice shall control. Some of the Personal Information we collect may be subject to other data protection laws (such as the Fair Credit Reporting Act) and may be exempt from some or all of the requirements under State Privacy Laws. Please read this State Privacy Notice carefully before sharing information with us so you understand our practices regarding your information.

I. Exercising Your Rights

To exercise the rights described above, you—or someone authorized to act on your behalf—must submit a verifiable consumer request to us by completing the Data Subject Rights Request Form, contacting us at [email protected] or calling 800-223-4922. Your request must include your name, e-mail address, mailing address, phone number, the nature of your inquiry and the context in which we may have received your information. If you are an agent submitting a request on behalf of a consumer, we may request that you submit a signed permission from the consumer authorizing you to make the request. In order to protect the privacy and data security of consumers, the verifiable consumer request must:

• Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative of such consumer; and
• Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

As indicated above, please be aware that State Privacy Laws provide certain limitations and exceptions to the foregoing rights, which may result in us denying or limiting our response to your request. For instance, State Privacy Laws limit the number of verifiable consumer requests that you may submit within a 12-month period. We encourage you to review the law of your state of residence to learn more.

We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request. We may also request that you provide additional information if needed to verify your identity or authority to make the request. We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you or the consumer on whose behalf you are making the request.

To appeal our decision on your data subject requests, you may contact us at [email protected]. Please enclose a copy of or otherwise specifically reference our decision on your data subject request, so that we may adequately address your appeal. We will respond to your appeal in accordance with applicable law.

J. Response Timing and Format

We will respond to your request in accordance with the applicable timeframe provided under State Privacy Laws. Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the receipt of the verifiable consumer request. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For requests to provide specific pieces of personal information we will select the format of our response; the format will be readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another. We will not charge a fee to process or respond to a verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing the request.

K. Our Commitment Not to Discriminate

We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your State Privacy rights by:

• Denying you goods or services.
• Charging you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties.
• Providing you a different level or quality of goods or services.
• Suggesting that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.
