4. How long do we keep your personal information

Personal data is kept by ALD, in an active base, for the time necessary to achieve the objective pursued at the time of their collection.

The retention period is therefore initially set by ALD according to the operational needs necessary for the execution of each individual rental contract and taking into consideration any recommendations of the local Data protection authority.

However, certain longer retention periods may result from legislative and regulatory texts. Some laws also require that documents/information containing personal data be retained for a specific period of time for evidentiary purposes or in anticipation of possible litigation until the action in question is time-barred. For example, in commercial matters for accountability documents, obligations are in principle prescribed by five years if they are not subject to special prescriptions. ALD is therefore obliged to keep certain personal data beyond the execution of the lease contracts, even though it no longer has any use for them, in the form of so-called intermediate archives.

At the end of these periods, the personal data is:

Anonymized; and/or
Purged

5. Who ALD may share your personal data with

In principle, we do not share your data with third parties. However, as part of the execution of the sales contract, we may share company information and personal data with ALD’s affiliates/ SG Group in order to streamline the KYC process.

6. Export of personal data outside of the EEA

In general, all of the ALD databases are located inside the European Union. However, ALD may transfer your personal data from the Europe to countries within or outside the European Economic Area. The countries outside of the EEA may not provide the same level of protection as is available in the EEA. If we transfer your personal data outside the EEA, we will ensure that adequate levels of protection are in place in relation to the processing of your personal data. Hence, ALD will before transferring your personal data outside Europe make sure to implement a Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC). This applies to our support team based in India (SGGSC).
