SUBMITTING PERSONAL INFORMATION TO US

Resumes/CVs should include information relevant to your employment history and education (degrees obtained, places worked, positions held, relevant awards, and so forth). If you provide information about others (i.e., reference contact details), please first ensure you have informed them that you will be providing their information and that they are willing to provide it to us. Generally, we recommend that you do not disclose sensitive personal characteristics (e.g., gender, height, weight, religion, philosophical or political beliefs, financial data, age) in your resume/CV or any materials you submit in support of your application. However, in positions in some locations, we may request that you self identify with certain characteristics, such as gender, race/ethnicity or veteran status. You may choose not to disclose such characteristics and choosing not to disclose will not subject you to any adverse treatment. If you do disclose, this information will be kept confidential and used for reporting and statistical purposes in compliance with applicable law.

Any misleading, false or willful omission of relevant information may be sufficient reason for refusal of employment, or suspension or dismissal from employment. Please submit only accurate information.

WHO MAY HAVE ACCESS TO YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

Your PI may be shared with third parties, including the hiring entity or entities where hiring managers may be located for the Processing Purposes as follows:
  • to our group of companies, as the specific entity you're applying to work for is part of a wider group with headquarters in the USA and offices in various jurisdictions which share human resources and management decisions, we may transfer your PI to the hiring entity in order to make the hiring decision and to other entities within the group to monitor and assure compliance with applicable policies and procedures and applicable laws;
  • to regulators, authorities and other third parties, such as courts and other authorities, independent external advisers and internal compliance and investigation teams - as necessary for the Processing Purposes described above; and
  • to data processers, as necessary for the Processing Purposes described above. These diligently selected data processors/service providers may carry out instructions relating to IT hosting services or similar functions, recruitment or workforce administration. Where required, they will be subject to contractual obligations to implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to safeguard the PI, and to process it only as instructed.
Therefore, for the Processing Purposes, your PI will be processed and stored on systems used by us in the USA and located in our headquarters in Eden Prairie, Minnesota USA and in other locations, as may be required from time to time. Such locations may be in countries that do not provide a level of data protection comparable to the level in your home country. However, if you are in Europe, and your PI is shared with other group entities, any such transfer outside the EEA, Switzerland, Andorra, Argentina, non-public organizations in Canada, Faeroe Islands, Guernsey, Israel, Isle of Man, Japan, Jersey and New Zealand (or any other country deemed "safe" by the European Commission) will be safeguarded by contractual measures based on the European Commission's approved standard contractual clauses. You can ask for a copy of these by contacting us as set out below.

Only authorized personnel (talent acquisition, human resources, legal, and appropriate managers) will have access to your PI for the legitimate business purposes described in this notice. We do not sell your Personal Information or share it for cross‐context behavioral advertising.

OUR RECORD RETENTION PRACTICES

If you do not want your information retained in the event that you are not offered a position, you can request deletion by contacting us. However, we may retain some of your information for longer in an anonymized form for statistical purposes, including to meet statutory and regulatory requirements.
