Information regarding the transfer of personal information outside of the European Economic Area (EEA)
KTSI’s main administrative offices are based in North America, and that is where we process personal information collected through our Website. When you provide your personal information to us, you are consenting to the transfer of your personal data outside of the EEA, including to countries that do not have an adequacy decision from the European Commission, which means that the Commission has not determined that the laws of those countries provide legal protection equivalent to European Union data protection laws.
We safeguard your personal information by treating it in accordance with this GDPR Notice and our general Privacy Policy. When we transfer personal information outside of the EEA, we enter into contracts with our data processors that require them to treat personal information in a manner that is consistent with this GDPR Notice and our general Privacy Policy.
Retention period for personal information
How long we retain your personal information varies according to the type of information in question and the purposes for which it is used. We delete personal information within a reasonable period after we no longer need to use it for the purpose for which it was collected (or for any subsequent purpose that is compatible with the original purpose). We may archive personal information for a certain period prior to its final deletion, as part of our ordinary business continuity procedures.
Your right to access, correct, restrict or delete your personal information and to data portability
Subject to certain limitations under GDPR, you have the right to request access to and correction or deletion of your personal information, restrict processing concerning your personal information and/or object to such processing. You also have the right to data portability, which means that you can request that we provide you (or a third party you designate) with a transferable copy of the personal information you have provided to us.
If you wish to exercise any of these rights, or if you have any questions or concerns regarding our processing of your personal information, please contact us as described in the section of our general Privacy Policy entitled Where to Send Questions, Concerns, or Complaints about this Privacy Policy.
If you have a concern regarding our processing of your personal information, you have the right to file a complaint with your national data protection authority (also known as a supervisory authority).
