Unless otherwise indicated, if we request personal information from you, we need it for our business or regulatory compliance purposes.  In some limited instances we may request personal information for legal compliance reasons.  In addition, we may request that you provide personal information on a purely voluntary basis.  If our request for information is for legal compliance or voluntary reasons, we will so advise you of that.

We only process personal information we collect as required for the purposes listed above.  Where we process your personal information in connection with our legitimate business interests or those of a third party, we do so after concluding that our doing so does not prejudice you or your privacy in a way that would override our legitimate interests in doing so for such purposes.

If you are a former employee, contractor, officer or partner of CC Capital, we will continue to process your personal information for a reasonable period following the end of your relationship with us for our legitimate business, legal compliance purposes and/or for the establishment or defense of a legal claim.  In addition, we may process your personal information to perform our contractual obligations to you, such as paying final salary or severance.  We only process your personal information after we have concluded that doing so does not prejudice you or your privacy in a way that would override our legitimate interests in doing so for such purposes.  Your personal information will be retained and deleted in accordance with our retention policies and procedures.

• We provide personal information to third parties with whom we have nondisclosure agreements

• We provide personal information to third parties/businesses that we have engaged for the purpose of processing such information on our behalf, where the terms of engagement oblige those parties to process such information only on our instructions and in compliance with this Policy and appropriate confidentiality and security measures.  If such parties fail to comply with our terms, CC Capital is not liable for any reimbursement or losses.

• We respond to subpoenas, court orders, regulatory requests and other legal processes

Security

We maintain administrative, technical and physical safeguards to protect personal information we obtain from you against accidental, unauthorized, or unlawful, access, destruction, loss, alteration, disclosure or use.  In the event of a security breach, we will comply with applicable laws regarding notification and remediation of the breach.

Retention, Deletion and Updating of Personal Information

We endeavor to keep your personal data accurate and up-to-date.  We retain personal information for as long as it is required for our legitimate business purposes or as required by law or regulation (which may be longer than our ongoing relationship with you).  

We will delete your personal information (and other information) that we hold when we no longer need to retain it.  We will retain your personal information in accordance with our retention policies and, in any event, for no longer than it is necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or retained, after which it will be deleted or anonymized.

Certain jurisdictions provide consumers with the right to request deletion of their personal information.  We comply with such laws where applicable.

Please note that we may retain some limited information about you so that we can maintain a continuous relationship with you if and when we are in contact again.
