Legitimate interest means that Accenture has reasonable grounds to process your
personal information. Where the above table states that we rely on our
legitimate interests for a given purpose, we are of the opinion that our
legitimate interests are not overridden by your interests, rights or freedoms,
given (i) the transparency we provide on the processing activity, (ii) our
privacy by design approach, (iii) our regular privacy reviews and (iv) the
rights you have in relation to the processing activity. If you wish to obtain
further information on this balancing test approach, please contact Accenture’s
Data Privacy Officer.

We will process your personal information for the purposes mentioned above based
on your prior consent, to the extent such consent is mandatory under applicable
laws.

To the extent you are asked to click on/check “I accept”, “I agree” or similar
buttons/checkboxes/functionalities in relation to a privacy statement, doing so
will be considered as providing your consent to process your personal
information, only where such consent is required by mandatory law.

We will not use your personal information for purposes that are incompatible
with the purposes of which you have been informed, unless it is required or
authorized by law, or it is in your own vital interest (e.g. in case of a
medical emergency) to do so.

Will we share your personal data with third parties?

We may transfer personal data to our service providers and professional
advisors, public and governmental authorities, Accenture companies/affiliates or
third parties in connection with Accenture’s operation of its business,
including any (potential) corporate or commercial transaction and including
clients if the data has been processed to provide client services. Such third
parties may be located in other countries. Before we do so, we shall take the
necessary steps to ensure that your personal data will be given adequate
protection as required by relevant data privacy laws and Accenture’s internal
policies. Accenture may also transfer your personal data to any of its global
affiliates/partners in furtherance of any visits to our Accenture locations.

For example, we may disclose personal information to third parties for other
business purposes as follows:

 * We share your information with third-party service providers that provide
   services to us, including billing, payment processing, customer service,
   email deployment, advertising and marketing, security and performance
   monitoring, maintaining or servicing accounts, processing or fulfilling
   orders and transactions, verifying customer information, research, data
   hosting, auditing, and data processing;
   
   
 * To protect and defend the legal rights, safety, and security of Accenture,
   our affiliates, users, or the public, including to protect against fraud and
   malicious activity; and
   
   
 * For other business purposes described in this privacy statement or for any
   other purpose disclosed to you at the time we collect the information or
   pursuant to your consent.

We may also share your information in connection with a substantial corporate
transaction, such as the sale of a website, a merger, consolidation, asset sale,
initial public offering, or in the unlikely event of a bankruptcy.

Unless you are otherwise notified, any transfers of your personal data from
within the European Economic Area (EEA) to third parties outside the EEA will be
based on an adequacy decision or are governed by the standard contractual
clauses (a copy of which can be obtained through the contact information
included below). Any other non-EEA related transfers of your personal data will
take place in accordance with the appropriate international data transfer
mechanisms and standards.

What about sensitive data?

We do not generally seek to collect sensitive data as defined in the second
paragraph below (also known as special categories within the EEA) through this
site or otherwise. In the limited cases where we do seek to collect such data,
we will do this in accordance with data privacy law requirements and/or ask for
your consent.

The term "sensitive data" refers to the various categories of personal data
identified by data privacy laws as requiring special treatment, including in
some circumstances the need to obtain explicit consent from you. These
categories include racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious,
philosophical or other similar beliefs, membership of a trade union, physical or
mental health, biometric or genetic data, sexual life or orientation, or
criminal convictions and offences (including information about suspected
criminal activities).

What about data security?

We maintain organizational, physical and technical security arrangements for all
the personal data we hold. We have protocols, controls and relevant policies,
procedures and guidance to maintain these arrangements taking into account the
risks associated with the categories of personal data and the processing we
undertake.

We adopt market leading security measures to protect your personal data. This
includes (without being limitative):

 * We hold an ISO27001 certification, which indicates that we adhere to the
   highest and strictest information security standards. This is a security
   standard awarded by the British Standards Institution (“BSI”) that serves as
   international certification that Accenture adheres to the highest and
   strictest standards. This certification is the only auditable international
   standard that defines the requirements for an Information Security Management
   System (“ISMS”) and confirms that Accenture’s processes and security controls
   provide an effective framework for protecting our clients’ and our own
   information.
   
   
 * We have a global Client Data Protection (“CDP”) program in place which
   governs the stewardship of client information and systems entrusted to us.
   
   
 * We have regular penetration testing performed by a third party provider,
   which continues to show the strength of our technical defenses.

Where will your personal data be processed?

As a global organization with offices and operations throughout the world,
personal data we collect may be transferred or be accessible internationally
throughout Accenture's global business and between its entities and affiliates.

Any such transfers throughout Accenture’s global business take place in
accordance with the applicable data privacy laws and in accordance with our
Binding Corporate Rules (“BCR”).

Our BCR reflect the standards contained in European data privacy laws (including
the General Data Protection Regulation). Having our BCR means that all our group
entities which have signed up to our BCR have to comply with the same internal
rules. It also means that your rights (see “Which rights do you have with
respect to the processing of your personal data?”) stay the same no matter where
your data are processed by Accenture.

Download a copy of Accenture's BCR.

What are the sources we get your personal information from?

If we do not obtain your personal information directly from you, we may obtain
it from the following sources: publicly available sources (registers or the
internet), Accenture employees, contractors, (prospective) members of board of
directors, shareholders, Accenture’s affiliates, subsidiaries and newly acquired
businesses, employers of our contractors, our clients, public authorities,
public websites and social media, previous employers, educational institutions,
suppliers, vendors (including third party data providers) and target entities or
assets (in the framework of mergers and acquisitions).

In section 5, you can find more information on the sources of your personal
information for marketing purposes.

How long will your personal data be retained by us?

We will retain your personal data only for as long as is necessary. We maintain
specific records management and retention policies and procedures, so that
personal data are deleted after a reasonable time according to the following
retention criteria:

 * We retain your data as long as we have an ongoing relationship with you (in
   particular, if you have an account with us).
   
   
 * We will only keep the data while your account is active or for as long as
   needed to provide services to you.
   
   
 * We retain your data for as long as needed in order to comply with our global
   legal and contractual obligations.

Which rights do you have with respect to the processing of your personal data?

You are entitled (in the circumstances and under the conditions, and subject to
the exceptions, set out in applicable law) to:

 * Request access to the personal data we process about you: this right entitles
   you to know whether we hold personal data about you and, if we do, to obtain
   information on and a copy of that personal data.
   
   
 * Request a rectification of your personal data: this right entitles you to
   have your personal data be corrected if it is inaccurate or incomplete.
   
   
 * Object to the processing of your personal data: this right entitles you to
   request that Accenture no longer processes your personal data.
   
   
 * Request the erasure of your personal data: this right entitles you to request
   the erasure of your personal data, including where such personal data would
   no longer be necessary to achieve the purposes.
   
   
 * Request the restriction of the processing of your personal data: this right
   entitles you to request that Accenture only processes your personal data in
   limited circumstances, including with your consent.
   
   
 * Request portability of your personal data: this right entitles you to receive
   a copy (in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format) of
   personal data that you have provided to Accenture, or request Accenture to
   transmit such personal data to another data controller.

To the extent the processing of your personal data falls in scope of our BCR,
you may also want to review your rights under our BCR.

To the extent that the processing of your personal data is based on your
consent, you have the right to withdraw such consent at any time by
contacting Accenture’s Data Privacy Officer. Please note that this will not
affect Accenture’s right to process personal data obtained prior to the
withdrawal of your consent, or its right to continue parts of the processing
based on other legal bases than your consent.

If, despite our commitment and efforts to protect your personal data, you
believe that your data privacy rights have been violated, we encourage and
welcome individuals to come to Accenture first to seek resolution of any
complaint. You have the right at all times to register a complaint directly with
the relevant supervisory authority or to make a claim against Accenture with a
competent court (either in the country where you live, the country where you

Legitimate interest means that Accenture has reasonable grounds to process your
personal information. Where the above table states that we rely on our
legitimate interests for a given purpose, we are of the opinion that our
legitimate interests are not overridden by your interests, rights or freedoms,
given (i) the transparency we provide on the processing activity, (ii) our
privacy by design approach, (iii) our regular privacy reviews and (iv) the
rights you have in relation to the processing activity. If you wish to obtain
further information on this balancing test approach, please contact Accenture’s
Data Privacy Officer.

We will process your personal data for the purposes mentioned above based on
your prior consent, to the extent such consent is mandatory under applicable
laws.

To the extent you are asked to click on/check "I accept", "I agree" or similar
buttons/checkboxes/functionalities in relation to a privacy statement, doing so
will be considered as providing your consent to process your personal data, only
in the countries where such consent is required by mandatory law. In all other
countries, such action will be considered as a mere acknowledgement and the
legal basis of the processing of your personal data will not be your consent but
any other applicable legal basis.

We will not use your personal data for purposes that are incompatible with the
purposes of which you have been informed, unless it is required or authorized by
law, or it is in your own vital interest (e.g. in case of a medical emergency)
to do so.

Where we maintain or use deidentified information, we will continue to maintain
and use that information only in a deidentified form and will not attempt to
reidentify the information.

Will we share your personal information with third parties and service
providers?

We may transfer personal information to our service providers and professional
advisors, public and governmental authorities, Accenture companies/affiliates or
third parties in connection with Accenture’s operation of its business,
including any (potential) corporate or commercial transaction and including
clients if the data has been processed to provide client services. Such third
parties may be located in other countries. Before we do so, we shall take the
necessary steps to ensure that your personal information will be given adequate
protection as required by relevant data privacy laws and Accenture’s internal
policies. Accenture may transfer your personal information to any of its global
affiliates/partners in furtherance of any visits to our Accenture locations. If
you would like more information on the categories of personal information we may
share please read the section titled "Which categories of personal data do we
collect and how do we process such personal data?"

For example, we may disclose personal information to third parties for other
business purposes as follows:

 * We share your information with third-party service providers that provide
   services to us, including billing, payment processing, customer service,
   email deployment, advertising and marketing, security and performance
   monitoring, maintaining or servicing accounts, processing or fulfilling
   orders and transactions, verifying customer information, research, data
   hosting, auditing, and data processing;
   
   
 * To protect and defend the legal rights, safety, and security of Accenture,
   our affiliates, users, or the public, including to protect against fraud and
   malicious activity; and 
   
   
 * For other business purposes described in this privacy statement or for any
   other purpose disclosed to you at the time we collect the information or
   pursuant to your consent.

We may also share your information in connection with a substantial corporate
transaction, such as the sale of a website, a merger, consolidation, asset sale,
initial public offering, or in the unlikely event of a bankruptcy.

Unless you are otherwise notified, any transfers of your personal information
from within the European Economic Area (EEA) to third parties outside the EEA
will be based on an adequacy decision or are governed by the standard
contractual clauses (a copy of which can be obtained through the contact
information included below). Any other non-EEA related transfers of your
personal information will take place in accordance with the appropriate
international data transfer mechanisms and standards.

What about sensitive data?

We do not generally seek to collect sensitive data as defined in the second
paragraph below (also known as special categories within the EEA) through this
site or otherwise. In the limited cases where we do seek to collect such data,
we will do this in accordance with data privacy law requirements and/or ask for
your consent.

The term "sensitive data" refers to the various categories of personal
information identified by data privacy laws as requiring special treatment,
including in some circumstances the need to obtain explicit consent from you.
These categories include racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious,
philosophical or other similar beliefs, membership of a trade union, physical or
mental health information, biometric or genetic data, sexual life or
orientation, finances, geolocation, the contents of private communications,
sensitive data related to a consumer’s government I.D. (i.e. social security
number or driver’s license number), or criminal convictions and offences
(including information about suspected criminal activities).

What about data security?

We maintain organizational, physical and technical security arrangements for all
the personal information we hold. We have protocols, controls and relevant
policies, procedures and guidance to maintain these arrangements taking into
account the risks associated with the categories of personal information and the
processing we undertake.

We adopt market leading security measures to protect your personal information.
This includes (without being limitative):

 * We hold an ISO27001 certification, which indicates that we adhere to strict
   information security standards. This is a security standard awarded by the
   British Standards Institution (“BSI”) that serves as international
   certification that Accenture adheres to the highest and strictest standards.
   This certification is the only auditable international standard that defines
   the requirements for an Information Security Management System (“ISMS”), and
   confirms that Accenture’s processes and security controls provide an
   effective framework for protecting our clients’ and our own information.
   
   
 * We have a global Client Data Protection (“CDP”) program in place which
   governs the stewardship of client information and systems entrusted to us.
   
   
 * We have regular penetration testing performed by a third party provider,
   which continues to show the strength of our technical defenses.

Where will your personal data be processed?

As a global organization with offices and operations throughout the world,
personal data we collect may be transferred or be accessible internationally
throughout Accenture's global business and between its entities and affiliates.

Any such transfers throughout Accenture’s global business take place in
accordance with the applicable data privacy laws and in accordance with our
Binding Corporate Rules (“BCR”).

Our BCR reflect the standards contained in European data privacy laws (including
the General Data Protection Regulation). Having our BCR means that all our group
entities which have signed up to our BCR have to comply with the same internal
rules. It also means that your rights (see “Which rights do you have with
respect to the processing of your personal information?”) stay the same no
matter where your data are processed by Accenture.

Download a copy of Accenture's BCR.

What are the sources we get your personal information from?

If we do not obtain your personal information directly from you, we may obtain
it from the following sources: publicly available sources (registers or the
internet), Accenture employees, contractors, (prospective) members of board of
directors, shareholders, Accenture’s affiliates, subsidiaries and newly acquired
businesses, employers of our contractors, our clients, public authorities,
public websites and social media, previous employers, educational institutions,
suppliers, vendors (including third party data providers) and target entities or
assets (in the framework of mergers and acquisitions).

In section 5, you can find more information on the sources of your personal
information for marketing purposes.

How long will your personal information be retained by us?

We will retain your personal data only for as long as is necessary. We maintain
specific records management and retention policies and procedures, so that
personal data are deleted after a reasonable time according to the following
retention criteria:

 * We retain your data as long as we have an ongoing relationship with you (in
   particular, if you have an account with us).
 * We will only keep the data while your account is active or for as long as
   needed to provide services to you.
 * We retain your data for as long as needed in order to comply with our global
   legal and contractual obligations. 

Which rights do you have with respect to the processing of your personal
information?

You may be entitled, where provided for under applicable law, to:

   to have your personal information corrected if it is inaccurate or
   incomplete.

   you to request that Accenture no longer processes your personal information.
   
   
 * Request the erasure or deletion of your personal information: this right
   entitles you to request the erasure or deletion of your personal information,
   including where such personal information would no longer be necessary to
   achieve the purposes.

   right entitles you to request that Accenture only processes your personal
   information in limited circumstances, including with your consent.

California law provides California residents with the right to receive a privacy
notice with information about what we have collected, disclosed for business
purposes, and sold during the preceding 12 months. This Accenture Privacy
Statement for California Residents provides information about the categories of
information that we have collected, the sources of that information, the
purposes for which we have used the information, and the categories of third
parties to whom we have disclosed the information for business purposes.

California law also affords California residents a right to opt out of the
“sale” of your personal information. This right is applicable to the extent that
Accenture is engaging in a “sale” of your personal information as that term is
defined under applicable law. While Accenture generally is not in the business
of selling information, there are limited circumstances where we share personal
information with our clients, third-party partners, or others that we treat as a
sale for which California residents have the right to opt out. We do not sell
the personal information of minors under 16 years of age without affirmative
authorization.

If you choose to exercise your rights, we will not charge you different prices
or provide different quality of services unless those differences are related to
your personal information or otherwise permitted by law. Please click here  to
opt out of the “sale” of your personal information. If at any time you would
like to opt back in and allow Accenture to sell your personal information,
please click here.

To exercise any other rights available to you under California law, please
contact us. Once we receive your request, we may verify it by requesting
information sufficient to confirm your identity. Where necessary, this may
include asking you for a copy of your valid government-issued identification,
such as your valid passport or driver’s license (with the allowance of the
redaction of your driver’s license number or social security number). If you
would like to use an authorized agent registered with the California Secretary
of State to exercise your rights, we may request evidence that you have provided
such agent with power of attorney or that the agent otherwise has valid written
authority to submit requests to exercise rights on your behalf that we can
confirm directly with the requestor. We reserve the right to deny requests from
authorized agents in certain circumstances, such as where we have a reasonable
belief that the request is fraudulent. For this reporting period, Accenture does
not qualify for the CCPA 11 CCR § 999.317(g) reporting requirement.

Accenture may offer certain financial incentives for the collection, sale, or
deletion of personal information. Where we would do so, we will provide
California residents additional information where required by California law.

To the extent that the processing of your personal information is based on your
consent, you have the right to withdraw such consent at any time by contacting .
Please note that this will not affect Accenture’s right to process personal
information obtained prior to the withdrawal of your consent, or its right to
continue parts of the processing based on other legal bases than your consent.

If, despite our commitment and efforts to protect your personal information, you
believe that your data privacy rights have been violated, we encourage and
welcome individuals to come to Accenture first to seek resolution of any
complaint. You have the right at all times to register a complaint directly with
the relevant supervisory authority or to make a claim against Accenture with a
competent court (either in the country/State where you live, the country where
you work or the country where you deem that data privacy law has been
infringed).

If you would like to exercise your erasure, rectification, or access rights in
reference to your data as a job applicant, you may also click here. Any other
rights can be exercised by contacting us.

avoid contacting you again.


6. HOW DO WE USE PERSONAL DATA WHEN USING AI IN OUR COMMUNICATIONS?

This explanation applies to external and internal facing communication
services.

describes how we use AI supportive capabilities for example when exchanging
email and chats, during calls and meetings and other communication channel we
may use to connect with you, to create greater collaboration or enhance existing
assistive technologies.  

We may use this technology to scan emails, chats, calls, and meetings (for
example, a temporary transcript during the meeting) to create suggested replies,
summaries, recaps, and insights from the conversation (for example, the agreed
actions), bring related content to the conversation and similar activities.

As explained in this privacy statement, the processing of personal data for the
purpose of proper communication is based on our legitimate interest. Accenture
will only record or transcribe audio and video recording (and similar speech to
text technology) based on your consent, regardless of the use of AI supporting

for any reason. You can also exercise your rights, including the withdraw of
your consent, through the communication channels included in this privacy

from the outset whenever you are interacting with an automated system (e.g. chat

   will also collect and process your name, contact information and any other
   information provided in any pre-filming questionnaires and/or release forms,
   such as next of kin details.

Third-party advertising and social media cookies are used to (1) deliver
advertisements more relevant to you and your interests; (2) limit the number of
times you see an advertisement; (3) help measure the effectiveness of the
advertising campaign; and (4) understand people’s behavior after they view an
advertisement. They are usually placed on behalf of advertising networks with
the site operator’s permission. They remember that you have visited a site and
quite often they will be linked to site functionality provided by the other
organization. This may impact the content and messages you see on other websites
you visit. If you do not allow these cookies you may not be able to use or see
