This privacy policy (the “Policy”) sets out the personal data processing activities conducted by SGI-Aviation Services B.V. and its affiliated companies (collectively, SGI). We understand that privacy is important to you and we treat personal data in line with applicable data protection laws, including the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

1. What data do we collect and for what purpose?

We process personal data only for lawful purposes including the performance of agreements, the pursuit of our legitimate interests and compliance with legal obligations.

• Enquiries: We collect and process your name and email address as well as any other personal data voluntarily submitted by you when you make an enquiry through our general email address info@sgiaviation.com or through our “contact us” page. We collect this personal data to process your enquiry. We keep this information in electronic format for 6 months after the initial enquiry has been processed to facilitate any necessary follow-up.
• Customers and Suppliers: We collect and process names and email addresses of contact persons of our customers and suppliers for the purpose of the provision of our services. We save this personal data for as long as we need them to provide our services and for a maximum period of 2 years thereafter.
• Job Applicants: We collect and process the personal data submitted to us in connection with a job application to determine whether or not to invite a candidate for an interview and whether or not to hire a candidate. In the event a candidate is not hired, we delete the personal data after a period of 3 months unless we have the candidate’s consent to keep the personal data on file to contact such candidate in the future about job openings.
• Website Visit: When you access our website, your browser may automatically transmit certain technical information to our web server. This typically includes but is not limited to your IP address; the date and time of access; the requested URL / page; HTTP status code (e.g. success/error) the amount of data transferred; referring page (if any); browser type and version and operating system and device information. This information is stored in server log files by our hosting provider. We do not use this information to identify you personally, except where this is necessary to investigate incidents that impact the security or proper operation of the website.

2. Recipients and data sharing

We only share your personal data where necessary and in accordance with data protection law. Typical recipients include:

• IT and hosting providers who operate and maintain our website and related infrastructure
• Analytics providers, if used, for aggregated, anonymized web statistics
• Group companies/affiliates, where needed to route or respond to your inquiry
• Professional advisors (e.g. legal counsel) in the context of protecting our rights, complying with legal obligations or managing disputes
• Authorities and regulators where required by applicable law or to protect our legal rights

We do not sell personal data to third parties and do not disclose it for their own independent marketing purposes.

3. International transfers

Our hosting and main processing activities are intended to take place within the European Economic Area (EEA) where feasible. If, in specific cases, personal data is transferred to a country outside the EEA that does not provide an adequate level of data protection, we ensure that reasonable safeguards are in place, specifically:

• Standard contractual clauses adopted under the European laws, or
• Other measures recognised under applicable data protection law.

You may contact us for further information on the safeguards used for international transfers.

4. Your rights under GDPR

Under the GDPR and, where applicable, other data protection laws, you have various rights in relation to your personal data, including:

• Right of access: to obtain information about whether we process your personal data and, if so, details of that processing.
• Right to rectification: to have inaccurate or incomplete personal data corrected.
• Right to erasure: to request deletion of your personal data, where legal requirements are met.
• Right to restriction of processing: to request that processing be limited in certain circumstances.
• Right to data portability: to receive personal data you provided to us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, where processing is based on consent or contract and carried out by automated means.
• Right to object: to object to processing based on our legitimate interests, on grounds relating to your particular situation.
• Right to withdraw consent: where processing is based on your consent, you may withdraw such consent any time with future effect.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority, in particular in the EU Member State of your habitual residence, workplace, or the place of the alleged infringement. To exercise your rights, please contact the Controller (contact details provided below).
