How do we protect your personal data?

We are aware of the importance of the security of your personal data. We do our best to protect your personal data from misuse, interference, damage, unauthorized access, modification or disclosure and we have many security measures in place to protect your personal data.

International transfers of your data:

Personal data may be processed outside the European Economic Area (EEA). If this is the case, FM Logistic will do its utmost to ensure that this international data transfer has an adequate level and guarantees of security.
The guarantees we use to protect international data transfers include:

  • model standard contractual clauses validated by the European Commission. These standard clauses provide a sufficient guarantee because they make it possible to comply with the relevant levels of security as required by the regulations on the protection of personal data, and in particular in relation to the Regulation (the above-mentioned regulations and the Regulation being referred to together as “Regulations”)
  • by certification mechanisms that certify that third parties located outside the EEA process personal data in accordance with the Regulations. These certifications must be approved either by the European Commission, by the competent supervisory authority under the Regulation, or by the national accreditation body designated in accordance with the Regulation.
