IV. Data transfers, recipients and legal justification for such transfers

Recipients of your Personal Data

Other MicroVision Group companies: In some cases, it is necessary to share Employee Data that was collected locally within the MicroVision Group, including with MicroVision, Inc. in the United States. We do so to facilitate internal communication and task management within the MicroVision Group, group-wide HR planning and administration, including staffing, succession planning, forecasting and budgeting, investment decisions, training and performance management, and to be able to fulfil the employment relationship within our global structure, such as to facilitate global cooperation and employee travel or transfers within the group. The legal basis for such transfers is Contract Justification and Legitimate Interest Justification and our legitimate interests are the above mentioned. Access to Employee Data is provided only on a need-to-know-basis and subject to an access concept.

Benefits Providers, Insurance Carriers, Professional Advisors, Business Partners, Suppliers, and Customers: Benefits providers (such as payroll processors or pension plan providers), insurance carriers (such as health plan administrators and life insurance providers), professional advisors (such as audit firms and benefits consultants), business partners (such as university or technical consortia), suppliers (such as supply chain partners), customers, and other benefits administrators and service providers may also receive information about an employee’s salary, benefits, and equity compensation as necessary in connection with our business operations, in particular to administer and provide compensation, administer and provide applicable benefits and other work-related allowances, administer the workforce, comply with applicable laws and employment-related requirements, communicate with you and third parties, and respond to and comply with requests and legal demands. To the extent these providers do not act as Processors (as below), the legal basis for such transfer is the Legitimate Interest Justification.

Third-party service providers: Certain third-party service providers, whether affiliated or unaffiliated, will receive your Personal Data to process such data under appropriate instructions (“Processors”) as necessary for the processing purposes, in particular to carry out certain HR management activities or IT-related tasks. The Processors will be subject to contractual obligations to implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to safeguard your Personal Data, and to process your Personal Data only as instructed.

A list of currently engaged Processors can be provided upon request to privacy@microvision.com.

Government Agencies, Regulators and Professional Advisors: We may need to transfer your Personal Data to government agencies and regulators (e.g., tax authorities, courts, and government authorities) to comply with legal obligations, and to external professional advisors as necessary to pursue legitimate interests (e.g., protecting MicroVision Group’s legal interests) as permitted by law. The legal basis for such transfer is Legal Obligation Justification.

When required by local law to process Sensitive Employee Data, this information will only be transferred outside of your country if permitted by applicable law.

In connection with the data transfers described above, Personal Data may in some cases be transferred onwards to recipients (i) in a country benefitting from an adequacy decision, (ii) bound by standard contractual clauses or other binding instrument ensuring the same level of data protection as standard contractual clauses, (iii) where such onward transfer is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims in the context of specific administrative, regulatory or judicial proceedings, (iv) where it is necessary to protect the vital interest of the data subject or another natural person, (v) you have provided consent to such onward transfer, or (vi) the recipient otherwise ensures appropriate safeguards.

Cross-Border Data Transfers

We transfer Personal Data to MicroVision Group companies, including MicroVision, Inc. in the United States, only if necessary for the purposes listed above. To the extent your Personal Data is transferred to countries that do not provide for an adequate level of data protection from an EU legal perspective, we will base the respective transfer on appropriate safeguards, such as standard contractual clauses, where this is required under applicable law. You can ask for a copy of such appropriate safeguards by contacting privacy@microvision.com. The countries that are recognized to provide for an adequate level of data protection from an EU law perspective are countries in the European Economic Area, Andorra, Argentina, Canada, Faroe Islands, Guernsey, Israel, Isle of Man, Japan, Jersey, New Zealand, Republic of Korea, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and Uruguay.

V. Retention periods for and deletion of your Personal Data

Your Personal Data is stored by MicroVision and/or our service providers to the extent necessary for the performance of our obligations and strictly for the time necessary to achieve the purposes for which the information was collected, in accordance with applicable data protection laws. Please note that the employment relationship is a continuing obligation that typically exists for an indefinite period. When MicroVision no longer needs to use your Personal Data to comply with contractual or statutory obligations, we will remove it from our systems and records and/or take steps to properly anonymize it so that you can no longer be identified from it, unless we need to keep your information, including Personal Data, to comply with legal or regulatory obligations to which MicroVision is subject, such as statutory retention periods that can result from the Commercial Code or the Tax Code, which usually prescribe retention periods between 6 to 10 years, or if we need the information to preserve evidence within the statutes of limitation, which is usually 3 years but can be up to 30 years.

VI. Your statutory rights

Under the conditions set out under applicable law, you may have the following limited rights:

Right of access: The right to obtain from us confirmation as to whether your Personal Data is being processed, and, where that is the case, to request access to the Personal Data. The access information includes – inter alia – the purposes of the processing, the categories of Personal Data concerned, and the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the Personal Data have been or will be disclosed.

The right to obtain a copy of the Personal Data undergoing processing. Subject to applicable law, we may charge a reasonable fee for copies, based on administrative costs.

Right to object: The right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to the processing of your Personal Data by us, where we rely on either our legitimate interests (or those of a third party) or where processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest, as the legal basis, and we can be required to no longer process your Personal Data. If you have a right to object and you exercise this right, your Personal Data will no longer be processed for such purposes by us. Exercising this right will not incur any cost. Such a right to object may not exist, in particular, if the processing of your Personal Data is necessary to take steps prior to entering into a contract or to perform a contract already concluded.

Please note that these rights might also be limited under the FDPA. As your employer, we are your point of contact for exercising these rights. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority.
