We will not disclose personal data to third parties, unless such disclosure is necessary to carry out certain processing activities.
This might be the case where:
- We need to rely on certain service providers (IT hosting providers, Website operation and security, HR-service providers, consultants) and in such cases, we ensure that our suppliers, acting as Data Processors under Article 28 GDPR, will only process your personal data under appropriate confidentiality and security obligations and in accordance with our instructions and with this Notice;
- When required by law or when we have a legitimate interest to do so (to comply with requests from judicial authorities or other legal obligations; to bring or defend a claim or lawsuit; as part of a reorganization, merger, or the transfer of our assets to another company).
Our website is hosted on the Google Cloud Platform with infrastructure and backend data storage located in the EU region (Amsterdam, Netherlands), thus your personal data will mainly be processed within the European Union and the European Economic Area. While our primary servers are located in the EU, we use a global Content Delivery Network (Google Cloud CDN) to ensure fast loading times. If users accesses the site from outside the EEA, their connection data (IP address) is processed by the CDN node closest to their geographical location.
Our website uses Sentry to detect and fix technical problems. Sentry stores the collected data in its EU data region (Germany); however, because Sentry is a US company, access from the United States cannot be ruled out, and any such transfer is based on Sentry's certification under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework, with the EU Standard Contractual Clauses in our data processing agreement as a fallback.
The data that we collect from you and process using Workable’s Services may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside the EEA. It may also be processed by staff operating outside the UK or the EEA. Such staff maybe engaged in, among other things, the provision of support services. In particular, your data may be accessible to i) Workable’s staff in the USA or ii) may be stored by Workable’s hosting service provider on servers in the USA as well as in the EU.
Should it be necessary for your personal data to be transferred to third countries outside the EU/EEA (e.g. to the USA), such data transfers will take place only to third countries with an Adequacy Decision in place approved by the European Commission or, in case of no Adequacy Decision, based on Standard Contractual Clauses provided by the European Commission and additional security measures to ensure data security.
We will retain your personal data only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which we collected it, including purposes related to fulfilling legal, tax or accounting obligations. In particular, the following retention periods apply:
Reports and error logs are deleted after 90 days Website log data is only stored temporarily for up to 30 days. After this period, the logs are automatically and permanently deleted, unless a longer retention period is required to investigate a specific security incident or cyberattack

A longer retention period may be required in the event of a legal complaint or in the event of disputes related to our existing contractual relationships.
