In addition, if we learn that third-party is using or disclosing your Personal Information in a manner that is contrary to this Policy, we will take reasonable steps to prevent or stop such use or disclosure. TSS may be liable for onward transfers of Personal Information to third parties in violation of this Policy and the U.S. Privacy Shield.

International Transfers of Your Personal Information

We operate internationally, and some of the processes involved in our use of your Personal Information will require your Personal Information to be stored or processed in countries outside the country where you are located, including countries that may not have laws that provide the same degree of protection for Personal Information as your home country. In particular, your Information may be transferred to, and processed in the United States, where many of our systems are located.

Please see TSS Group Company Details for examples of the countries where your Personal Information may be transferred.

Whenever we transfer your Personal Information outside of a country or region, such as the European Economic Area, we will make sure that we take the steps necessary to comply with applicable legal requirements. Therefore, where required, we will ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place by using appropriate contractual mechanisms, such as the EU Standard Contractual Clauses, or by relying upon the service providers participating in an approved international data transfer mechanism. For further information about the documents we use to protect your Personal Information when it is transferred outside of your country or region, please submit a request to legal@tssadministration.com.

The TSS Group’s U.S. entities also adhere to the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework and the Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield Framework as set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce regarding the collection, use, and retention of personal information transferred from the European Union and its Member States, the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and/or Switzerland to the United States.  We recognize that the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield and Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield are no longer valid transfer mechanisms for personal information from the European Union and its Member States, the European Economic Area, or Switzerland. The U.S. Department of Commerce, which oversees compliance with Privacy Shield, has stated that it will nonetheless continue to administer the Privacy Shield program and that participants are not relieved of their obligations under Privacy Shield. Accordingly, our companies in the U.S., as participants in the Privacy Shield program, will continue to comply with its commitments under the Privacy Shield and its robust internal data protection policies.

The TSS Group’s U.S. entities have certified to the Department of Commerce that they adhere to the Privacy Shield Principles with respect to such information.  If there is any conflict between the terms in our Privacy Shield statement and the Privacy Shield Principles, the Privacy Shield Principles shall govern.  To learn more about the Privacy Shield program, and to view our certification, please visit https://www.privacyshield.gov/.

Marketing and Opting Out

You will receive marketing communications from us if you have requested information from us or obtained insurance products and services from us and in each case you have not opted out of receiving that marketing.

We will get your express opt-in consent before we share your Personal Information with any company outside the TSS group of companies for marketing purposes.

You can ask us or third parties to stop sending you marketing messages at any time by contacting us at any time. Where you opt-out of receiving these marketing messages this will not apply to Personal Information provided to us as a result of a product or service you have purchased from us, product/service experience or other transactions.

If you no longer wish to be contacted for marketing purposes, please contact legal@tssadministration.com.

Keeping Your Information

TSS will only process Personal Information in ways that are compatible with the purpose that TSS collected it for, or for purposes which you might later authorize. We will only keep your information for as long as is necessary and in accordance with any relevant legislation, accounting or reporting requirements.

To determine the appropriate retention period for Personal Information we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the Personal Information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use of disclosure, the purposes for which we process your Personal Information and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.

Before we use your Personal Information for a purpose that is materially different than the purpose we collected it for or that you later authorized, we will provide you with the opportunity to opt-out.

TSS maintains procedures to help ensure that Personal Information is reliable for its intended use, accurate, complete, and current.

Security

TSS will take appropriate technical, physical, legal, and organizational measures, which are consistent with applicable privacy and data security laws. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet or data storage system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure (for example, if you feel that the security of any Personal Information you might have with us has been compromised), please immediately notify us. See contact information above.

When TSS provides Personal Information to a service provider, the service provider will be selected carefully and required to use appropriate measures to protect the confidentiality and security of the Personal Information.

We will put in place procedures to deal with any suspected Personal Information breaches. We will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach when we are legally required to do so.

You Rights

Persons covered by the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), or other data privacy regulation, may have the following rights in accordance with the applicable data protection provisions:  

 

Right to access, rectification, and erasure

You may have the right to access the Personal Information that we hold about you and to request that we correct, amend, or delete it if for example, it is inaccurate or processed unlawfully. These rights may be restricted in some cases, including where requests are manifestly unfounded or excessive under the circumstances or where it would violate the rights of someone else. If you would like to request access to, correction, amendment, or deletion of your Personal Information, you can submit a written request to the contact information provided above. We may request specific information from you to confirm your identity.

Right to restriction of processing

You may have the right to “block” or suppress processing of your Personal Information in certain circumstances, for example where you think that the Personal Information we hold about you may be inaccurate or where the processing is unlawful and you oppose the erasure of the Personal Information and request the restriction of their use instead.

Right to data portability

You may have the right to data portability in certain circumstances, which allows you to obtain and reuse your Personal Information for your own purposes across different services or request transfer to another controller, where technically feasible.

Right to object

You may have the right to object to the processing of your Personal Information in certain circumstances including where your information is used for direct marketing or for purposes of scientific/historical research and statistics.

Right to withdraw consent at any time

Where our processing of your personal information is based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. If you do decide to withdraw your consent, we will stop processing your personal information for that purpose, unless it is necessary for us to continue processing your information based on another lawful basis. Your withdrawal of your consent won’t impact any of our processing of information about you prior to withdrawing your consent.  The withdrawal of your consent may prevent us from processing any request made by you or offering insurance coverage or services or impede our ability to pay a claim.

If you wish to withdraw this consent, please email us at legal@tssadministration.com.
 

Right not to be subject to automated decision making

As we use systems which make decisions based on automated processing of your Personal Information, you may have the right to obtain human intervention, express your point of view and to obtain an explanation of the decision and challenge it.

Right to lodge a complaint

You may file a complaint about how we have handled your Personal Information. Please do not hesitate to contact us using the contact details provided above to ensure that it is resolved without delay.

However, we will always respond to any request or complaint you make and if we cannot comply with your request, we will tell you why.

In addition, for European data subjects, pursuant to GDPR you have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent Supervisory Authority if you believe that your Personal Information has not been processed in accordance with the relevant legislation and regulatory requirements. More information on the national supervisory authority can be found under: https://edpb.europa.eu/about-edpb/board/members_en

For those in other jurisdictions, applicable laws may also give you the right to lodge a complaint with the data protection authority in your country.

In compliance with the Privacy Shield Principles, we commit to resolve complaints about the collection or use of your Personal Information.  EU individuals with inquiries or complaints regarding our Privacy Shield policy should first contact us using the contact details provided above.

We have further committed to cooperate with the panel established by the EU Data Protection Authorities (DPAs) with regard to unresolved Privacy Shield complaints concerning human resources data transferred from the EU in the context of the employment relationship.

Under certain limited conditions, by providing notice to us, you may invoke binding arbitration regarding certain residual claims about EU Personal Information before a Privacy Shield panel.  Such procedure is in accordance with the rules established under the Privacy Shield.

Please note, we are subject to the investigatory and enforcement powers of the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”).
