obligations down to their sub-processors.
Our/other ANTA group companies’ service providers, their sub-processors, and other
transferees are bound to maintain appropriate levels of security and confidentiality, to

relevant third parties are acting as our authorized agents, we shall have no responsibility
for the appropriateness of their privacy practices.

one of a number of legal “grounds”. The following are the legal bases on which we rely for
processing such data: (One legal basis or more can be selected from the below bases)
- Your explicit consent. You can withdraw your consent at any time without affecting
processing operations carried out based on other legal bases. To this end, you can
contact MEPIPO@ANTA.COM.

interest objectives. For example, to prevent fraud, to ensure public health and safety, or

- Legal claims. We collect and process your Personal Data to defend, prosecute or make a
claim against you, us or a third party.
Generally, where we are processing your Personal Data in a recruitment context, we
process your Personal Data on the basis that it is necessary to do so in connection with
your individual contracts of employment relationship and where our legal duties as an
employer necessitate it.
How do we store your Personal Data?
Your Personal Data is stored securely either at the headquarters/or at a cloud computing
service provider in the United Arab Emirates. We also retain your Personal Data only for
as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, unless we
specifically agree a longer retention period with you, or a longer retention period is
required to comply with our legal or regulatory accounting or reporting requirements, as
permitted by applicable law or to assert or defend against legal claims. When the
applicable retention period expires, we will securely delete, de-identify, or irreversibly
anonymise the Personal Data.

We have implemented generally accepted standards of technology and operational
security including standards required under applicable laws and regulations, in order to
protect Personal Data against accidental, unauthorised or unlawful access, use,
processing, alteration, disclosure, transfer, erasure, loss of the Personal Data. Our
personnel follow a security policy. Only authorized persons are provided access to
Personal Data and such persons are obliged to ensure confidentiality.
Although we use appropriate security measures once we have received your Personal
Data, the transmission of data over the Internet (including by e-mail) is never completely
secure. We endeavor to protect Personal Data, but we cannot guarantee the security of
data transmitted to or by us. We will be responsible for any failure of our physical
systems, technology or management error that result in any unauthorized disclosure or
compromise of your Personal Data.
Where a Personal Data security incident arises, we shall respond to the incident, assess
the likely impact of the incident, and take necessary actions to bring the incident under
control. We will let you know in accordance with applicable laws and regulations if a
breach occurs that may have compromised the privacy or security of your Personal Data.
In the event of a Personal Data breach likely to prejudice privacy or confidentiality, we
will notify the UAE Data Office and affected individuals within the period and in the
manner set by the PDPL and related regulations, including a description of the breach,
likely effects and corrective measures.
We will assess the Personal Data security impact regularly to comply with basic
principles for Personal Data security under applicable law and when new requirements
are effective and legally binding and take appropriate actions to protect Personal Data.
