PRIVACY STATEMENT

ADVA Optical Networking SE together with its subsidiaries and affiliates
(collectively "ADVA" or “we”) is committed to protecting your privacy and
providing you with the best experience when visiting or using our websites, our
facilities, or our products and services ("Solution/s"). ADVA is also committed
to complying with all applicable data privacy laws, including but not limited to
the EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”).

This Privacy Statement applies to all ADVA websites, Solutions, or communication
with ADVA that link to or refer to this Statement. It describes how we handle
personal information, the choices available to you regarding data collection,
use, and access, and how you can update and correct your personal information.
Of course, additional information on personal information practices may be
provided in additional or supplementary privacy statements or notices provided
prior to or at the time of data collection.

Responsible for Processing Personal Information

When your employer, your company (“Company”) or you communicate with ADVA,
purchase or use our Solutions, provide products or services to us, visit our
website, facilities, trade shows or customer events, the party responsible for
processing your data is:

ADVA Optical Networking SE

Phone: +49 (0) 89 89 06 65 0

Collection of Personal Information

ADVA collects data about you, including personal information, when ADVA offers,
manufactures, sells, provides or delivers, maintains and services its Solutions,
or when your Company provides products or services to us. In general this is
information about your Company, because ADVA’s Solutions are not designed for
consumers or individuals. ADVA also collects data, including personal
information, when you visit or use our websites or facilities, and when you
communicate or interact with us.

"Personal information" is any information that can be used to identify an
individual, and may include names, addresses, email addresses, phone numbers,
login information (account numbers, passwords), marketing preferences, social
media account information, payment information, or information in the context of
applying for an employment position at ADVA. ADVA collects personal information
mainly directly, but sometimes also from trusted third-party sources and engages
third parties to collect personal information to assist us.

ADVA collects personal information for several reasons, such as:

 * Marketing, offering, manufacturing, selling, processing orders, paying,
   providing or delivering a Solution.
 * Providing maintenance or specific support services for, or in the context of,
   a Solution.
 * Communicating with you or to provide you with marketing information, e.g.,
   email newsletters or access to manuals or other technical information.
 * Enabling use of certain features of a Solution.
 * Providing training for a Solution and administering training certifications.
 * Personalizing and improving your experience when using an ADVA website or
   portal.
 * Purchasing or receiving your or your Company’s products or services.
 * Managing job applications. 
 * Processing of visits of ADVA facilities, trade shows, customer events, or of
   shareholder or analyst meetings or calls.

ADVA may combine the information we collect from you over time with information
obtained from other trusted third-party sources. This helps us improve its
overall accuracy and completeness, and also helps us to improve interactions
with you.

If you choose to provide ADVA with a third party's personal information, in
particular contact information of end-customers of our Solutions, you represent
that you have the third party's permission to do so. Third parties may
unsubscribe from any future communication following the link provided in the
initial message or by contacting: Data protection.

In some instances, ADVA and the trusted third parties we engage may
automatically collect data through cookies, web logs, web beacons, and other
similar applications. This information is used to better understand and improve
the usability, performance, and effectiveness of the website and to help tailor
content or offers for you. Please, read the “Cookie Policy” section below for
more information.

Use of Personal Information

ADVA uses all personal information solely for the purposes of operating our
business; improving and customizing our Solutions, websites and interactions
with you; sending marketing and other communications related to our business and
Solutions; processing job applications and hiring employees and contractors;
processing shareholder or analysts requests, meetings or calls; general
shareholder meetings; and other legitimate purposes permitted by applicable law.
Some of the ways we may use personal information include:
 * Marketing, offering, manufacturing, selling, providing or delivering a
   Solution to you or your Company.
 * Providing maintenance or specific support services for a Solution.
 * Communicating with you or providing you marketing information, e.g., email
   newsletters or access to manuals or other technical information.
 * Using certain features of a Solution.
 * Providing training for a Solution and administering training certifications.
 * Personalizing and improving your experience when using an ADVA website or
   portal.
 * Purchasing or receiving your or your Company’s products or services.
 * Managing job applications.

   shareholder or analyst meetings or calls.

performance of contractual obligations (Art. 6 Paragraph 1 Point b GDPR), for
the fulfilment of legal obligations (Art. 6 Paragraph 1 Point c GDPR), through
balancing of legitimate interests (Art. 6 Paragraph 1 Point f GDPR), or based on
your consent (Art. 6 Paragraph 1 Point a GDPR).

You are entitled to revoke your consent at any time with immediate effect by
sending a message to the contact address above. You may unsubscribe from any
ADVA newsletter or communication at any time, either by sending a message to the
contact address above or by clicking on the unsubscribe link in the newsletter.

What rights do you have?

You have certain rights under GDPR including the right to request a copy of the
personal information we hold about you, if you request it from us in writing:

 * Right to access: the right to obtain access to you any personal information,
   and certain other information (like that provided in this Privacy Policy).
 * Right to correct: if personal information is inaccurate or incomplete you
   have the right to have this rectified.
 * Right to erasure (the right “to be forgotten”): this enables you to request
   the deletion or removal of your personal information where there is no
   compelling reason for us to keep using it. This is not a general right to
   erasure; there are exceptions. For example, we have the right to continue
   using your personal information if such use is necessary for compliance with
   our legal obligations or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal
   claims.
 * Right to restrict our use of your information: the right to suspend the usage
   of your personal information or limit the way in which we can use it. Please,
   note that this right is limited in certain situations: when we are processing
   your personal information that we collected from you with your consent you
   can only request restriction on the basis of: (a) inaccuracy of data; (b)
   where our processing is unlawful and you don’t want your personal information
   erased; (c) if you need it for a legal claim; or (d) if we no longer need to
   use the data for the purposes for which we hold it. When processing is
   restricted, we can still store your information, but may not use it further.
   We keep lists of people who have asked for restriction of the use of their
   personal information to make sure the restriction is respected in future.
 * Right to data portability: the right to request that we move, copy or
   transfer (where technically feasible) your personal information in a
   structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, for your own purposes
   across different services.
 * Right to object: the right to object to our use of your personal information
   including where we use it for our legitimate interests, direct marketing.
 * Right to be informed: you have the right to be provided with clear,
   transparent and easily understandable information about how we use your
   personal information.
 * Right to withdraw consent: if you have given your consent to anything we do
   with your personal information, you have the right to withdraw your consent
   at any time (although if you do so, it does not mean that anything we have
   done with your personal information with your consent up to that point is
   unlawful).

The exercise of these rights is free of charge, however you are required to
prove your identity with two pieces of approved identification. We will use
reasonable efforts consistent with our legal duties to provide, correct or
delete personal information about you from our files.

To make inquiries or exercise any of your rights set out in this Privacy Policy
and/or make a complaint, please contact us by emailing or write to us and we
will endeavor to respond within 30 days. Contact details can be found in the
section Responsible for Processing Personal Information above.

When we receive formal written complaints, we will contact the person who made
the complaint to follow up. We work with the appropriate regulatory authorities,
including local data protection authorities, to resolve any complaints that we
cannot resolve directly.

If you are not satisfied with the way any complaint you make in relation to your
personal information has been handled by us then you may refer your complaint to
the relevant data protection supervisory authority.

Where can you lodge a complaint?

You have the right to raise a complaint with our Data Protection Officer (for
contact details see below) or with any supervisory authority of your habitual
residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement. Or you can
