Processing – all activities performed in regard to your personal data. For example: collecting, retaining, updating, sending messages to you, deleting data.
GDPR – Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data and repealing Directive 95/46/EC (General Data Protection Regulation).

Who are we
We are GlobalLogic. For our contact details please see the Contact Us section below.
As a rule, each of the companies from the GlobalLogic group independently decides about the purposes and methods of personal data processing, which means that each of them is a separate data controller – depending on which company you contact, conclude a contract with, run business relations with etc., this company, usually, will be the data controller of your personal data.
It may also happen that a particular company performs activities for another company from the GlobalLogic group, e.g. related to marketing – in this case, the company that performs such activities does not become the data controller of your personal data, but processes it on the basis of a data processing agreement concluded with data controller.
Except as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy, in most cases the entity responsible for processing personal data outside of the European Economic Area and the UK is GlobalLogic Inc. For questions, please see the Contact Us section below.
Whose Personal Data Do We Process

We do not knowingly solicit data online from or market to children under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 18. If we become aware that a child under 18 has provided us with personal information without parental consent, we take steps to delete such information.
Information We Collect
We may process personal data relating to you that we have either obtained from you, or from somewhere else. Therefore, your personal data can be processed:
Information You Voluntarily Provide to Us

– it primarily encompasses content of documents, our communication, along with other information we have obtained from publicly available sources (e.g. LinkedIn). Personal data relating to you that we process may include in particular:

Cookies – Our use of cookies to process personal data is explained in our Cookie Policy, which you should please read.
Interest-Based Advertising – Many advertising companies that collect information for interest-based advertising are members of the Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA) or the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI), both of which maintain websites where people can opt out of interest-based advertising from their members. To opt-out of website interest-based advertising provided by each organization’s respective participating companies, visit the DAA’s opt-out portal available at http://optout.aboutads.info/ or visit the NAI’s opt-out portal available at http://optout.networkadvertising.org/?c=1.
Residents of the European Union may opt-out of online behavioral advertising served by the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance’s participating member organizations by visiting https://www.youronlinechoices.eu/.
To opt-out of data collection for interest-based advertising across mobile applications by participating companies, download the DAA’s AppChoices mobile application opt-out offering here: https://youradchoices.com/appchoices.
Do Not Track – Some newer web browsers have a “Do Not Track” preference that transmits a “Do Not Track” header to the websites you visit with information indicating that you do not want your activity to be tracked. We currently do not respond to browser “Do Not Track” signals, as there is no standard for how online services should respond to such signals. As standards develop, we may develop policies for responding to do-not-track signals that we will describe in this Privacy Policy.
Your image
From time to time GlobalLogic may organize or take part in a promotional event, e.g. a conference, fairs, lecture (“Event”), which you may attend as a guest, speaker, host, etc. (“Participant”). Events are usually recorded on videos or photographs (sometimes with a help of third party acting on our behalf), therefore your image, including voice and utterances (“Image”) may be recorded and used, with neither geographical nor temporal restriction, nor with restriction as to the medium and number of copies, for the purpose of sharing information about the Event and for promotional purposes of GlobalLogic.
To the extent permissible by law, participation in the Event is equivalent to each Participant granting free of charge consent to the use and multiple dissemination of their Image recorded during the Event. Such consent may be withdrawn at any time. Where, for the above activities of GlobalLogic, the applicable law requires explicit consent of the person whose Image has been recorded, GlobalLogic will collect such proper consent from you.
Please note, that if you decide to participate in an Event, your personal data, including an Image, might get published for indefinite period of time on the Internet, in a manner that may allow an unrestricted number of people to view it.

Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access certain parts of our website or systems, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share a password with anyone.
Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the Internet is not completely secure.

Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorised access.
