The Privacy Statement applies to the processing of personal data carried out by Sinch AB (publ) or any of its subsidiaries (“We”, “Our”, “Us” or “Sinch”). The websites and Portals of Sinch are operated by Sinch Sweden AB unless we state otherwise. We belong to the Sinch Group of which the head office is Sinch AB (publ.) located at the Lindhagensgatan 74 (postal code: 112 18) in Stockholm, Sweden (hereafter: “Sinch Group”). Sinch Group is a global leader in cloud communications for mobile customer engagement. We ensure that Sinch is compliant with local data protection laws of the countries where we are established and other applicable data protection laws that may be applicable on your personal data because of where you live. SO WHY ARE WE INFORMING YOU? To enable us to fulfil our legal and contractual obligations, to conduct business securely and efficiently and for other specific purposes that are described in this notice, we need to process certain personal information about you (referred to as “personal data”). Personal data is any information that relates to an identified or identifiable living individual. Different pieces of information, which when collected together or combined with other information can lead to the identification of a particular person, is also personal data. SINCH AS A CONTROLLER Sinch is what is known as the “controller”.

This Privacy Statement outlines the kind of personal data that is processed by Sinch in relation to you, how and why we need this personal data, ensure equal and secure treatment of personal data, inform you about your and Sinch’s rights, and ensure that Sinch is in compliance with data protection law, including the general data protection regulation (the “GDPR”). For more information on which personal data we are processing, please read “Next questions: Who provides us with personal data, which information will we have and what will we use the data for?” SINCH AS A PROCESSOR Sinch also acts as a “processor” for most of our services. In that case we process personal data on behalf of our customers (which are mainly companies and institutions). As Processor, Sinch will only process Personal Data pursuant to the instructions of our customer. We encourage you to also read the privacy statements and policies of your providers. Sinch does not review, comment upon, or monitor its Customers’ compliance with their respective privacy statements and policies, nor does Sinch review Customer instructions to determine whether they are in compliance or conflict with the terms of a Customer’s published privacy policy or statements. If you have a data subject rights request that is connected to data for which We are the processor, we will ask you to contact the company or institution that is the controller of your personal data. NEXT QUESTIONS: WHO PROVIDES US WITH PERSONAL DATA, WHICH INFORMATION WILL WE HAVE AND WHAT WILL WE USE THE DATA FOR? WHO PROVIDES US WITH YOUR PERSONAL DATA? There are three sources that provide us with personal data: you yourself, Sinch and third parties. We might ask you to provide us with personal data in preparation of the concluding of your new customer agreement or when you are in contact with company within the Sinch Group or want to stay up to date and ask for newsletters. Third parties may also have provided information about you. For example: if we are working with a third party that helps us collect feedback from our campaign, you might be approached by them to provide information (if you agreed to this). You will be told clearly whether this information is collected anonymously or that your feedback is provided to us with information that allows us to identify you (most of the time, we will leave the choice to you!). You are then informed about this by this third party (or they inform you together with us). They are responsible for ensuring that the data they provide to us is provided in compliance with applicable data protection law. And thirdly, Sinch may also produce new personal data in the coming months. For example: When you are included in our CRM system as you have showed interest in receiving a newsletter or want to be contacted by our salesperson, we may also add information on what kind of information we have provided you with, why you are interested in our services etc. WE DO NOT PROCESS PERSONAL DATA OF CHILDREN Protecting the privacy of children is important to Sinch. For that reason, the Site is structured specifically to not attract anyone under 13, nor do We collect or maintain Personal Data on the Site from those who Sinch actually knows are under 13. If Sinch learns or is notified that it has collected information from users under the age of 13, Sinch will immediately delete such Personal Data.

This may for example be when a customer has terminated his agreement or has gone bankrupt and we need to make sure that all communication surrounding this termination/bankruptcy is documented and kept as long as necessary. That does not mean that we just provide the information to anyone without limitations. We do look at the nature of the data and whether it is necessary for our purpose. If not, then we do not use it. We will, of course, only use data in ways that you would reasonably expect and that have a minimal privacy impact (we put appropriate safeguards in place, such as limiting access to the information and anonymise/pseudonymise the personal data where possible). Based on the reasons we want to process the personal data and our efforts to minimize the privacy impact, we do not expect that it is likely that you will object to it. If you might want to object to it or just would like to receive more information, please read “Right to object” below, and contact us on dpo@sinch.com. In the context of the purposes that we addressed above, such as for example the transmission of personal data within the Sinch Group for internal administrative purposes as described within the matrix we are aware legitimate interest is the basis for the transfer but we also still need to fulfil the requirements on transferring personal data to a company in a third country still apply. More about this below. HOW LONG WILL YOU PROCESS MY PERSONAL DATA? We only keep your personal data as long as necessary for the purposes that are described above in the Data Processing Matrix: as long as we have a legitimate interest, to comply with the relevant law in your country or fulfil a legal request by a supervisor authority. Most of the time, how long we need to keep the data is decided by law on a local/national level. It can however be that there are deviations due to legal obligations on Sinch Group. Accordingly, when the purpose has been fulfilled in relation to a specific type of personal data, we will stop using the personal data for that purpose and, if the same data is not relevant for any other purpose, delete the relevant personal data as soon as reasonably possible. Deletion is done in accordance with best business practices or as is required in accordance with any ISO or other relevant certifications that the Sinch Group may hold. If you want us to delete or block your personal data, please go to “how can I make use of my rights?” WHO HAS ACCESS TO MY PERSONAL DATA? SINCH INTERNAL Personal data will only be available to authorized employees holding a position that requires them to process personal data to perform their work. These employees will only be granted access in accordance with the principle of “least privilege”, meaning that our personnel will only have access to personal data that is strictly necessary for the purpose of the processing to perform their work. Due to the fact that Sinch carries out business activities in a number of different countries, personal data may need to be transferred to Sinch affiliates and/or subsidiaries outside of your own home country that need to receive the personal data for the Sinch group’s internal administrative purposes or the purposes in this statement. This transfer is based on a legitimate interest (see above) as it is necessary within the Sinch Group for internal administrative purposes as described within the matrix. Below you will find a schedule of Sinch Group Companies where Sinch Group employees sit that may have access to your personal data. In case of questions, please contact the DPO via dpo@sinch.com.

If personal data needs to be transferred to a country that offers a lower level of protection for personal data than is required by applicable law (for example: USA or India), we will conclude the European Standard Contractual Clauses (that were decided upon by the European Commission) and do regular follow-ups to see whether our requirements are fulfilled.
