5. How We Store, Process and Protect Your Personal Data
Storage and Processing of Your Personal Data: ESDEMC Technology LLC’s global organizational structure requires the global transfer of personal data within the ESDEMC Technology LLC group of companies. As a result, we may transfer personal data to, and store or process personal data in, countries other than the country in which the personal data originally was collected. Those countries may not have as comprehensive data protection laws as the country from which ESDEMC Technology LLC initially obtained the personal data. However, ESDEMC Technology LLC has executed agreements between and among ESDEMC Technology LLC entities operating in different countries that contain Standard Contractual Clauses (“SCCs”) as defined in the E.U. Data Protection Directive (95/46/EC), to ensure that adequate safeguards are in place for the protection of personal data. Therefore, when we transfer, store or process personal data in other countries, we will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with the SCCs and this Privacy Statement.

- Security: ESDEMC Technology LLC puts in place appropriate physical, electronic and organizational measures to safeguard and secure your data. These measures follow generally accepted industry standards both during transmission and once it is received.

Although we will do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmission to our website.
- Accuracy: ESDEMC Technology LLC strives to keep your personal data accurate. We will provide you access to your personal data and the ability to review and correct it or ask for it to be deleted, as applicable. To request access, correction or deletion of your personal data, please refer to the available account settings on our website, or send an email to our inbox. We will respond to your request as soon as is reasonably practicable and in any event within 1 business day. In some instances, we may not be able to delete your personal data, in which case we will let you know if we are unable to do so and why. To protect your privacy and security, we will also take reasonable steps to verify your identity before granting you access or enabling you to make corrections.
- Data Compromise: In the event that the security of any of your personal data under our control is compromised as a result of a breach of security, ESDEMC Technology LLC will take all reasonable steps to investigate the situation, when appropriate will notify those individuals whose personal data may have been compromised, and may take other steps in accordance with any applicable laws and regulations.
