Политика за приватност- BRP Свет

BRP handles your personal information as described below:

Your personal information will be shared with BRP employees who have a need to know to perform their duties as well as authorized recipients. Therefore, the following categories of recipients access your personal information where necessary for the justifications below:
 

We take the following measures when sharing your personal information with recipients:

• We use a consistent security protocol with them;
• We require them to have privacy and security standards that are comparable to ours;
• We implement through our agreements with them, contractual protections and other measures to maintain the confidentiality and security of your personal information and to prevent it from being used for any other purpose. For example, we generally require our service providers to limit their use and retention of personal information to what is necessary to provide their services and to notify us in case of any actual or suspected confidentiality incident involving personal information;
• We have a due diligence process to ensure they are compliant with our requirements. This includes assessing their security practices, data protection policies, and compliance with relevant regulations;
• Access is strictly limited to only those persons who need to use it for the relevant purpose;
• When your personal information is made accessible or is transferred to a third party located outside your country of residence, we implement additional contractual safeguards to ensure that your personal information remains protected. Please read the COUNTRY-SPECIFIC ADDITIONAL PRIVACY POLICIES to know more about the safeguards we implement as they can vary from a country to another.

As it pertains to mobile information for text messaging purposes, note that this data is solely used by and for BRP for its own purposes. This information is not sold to any third parties or service providers. 

Your personal information is only retained as long as necessary to achieve the purposes for which it was collected or used or as otherwise permitted or required under applicable laws.

We retain your personal information for:

• the purposes described in this Privacy Policy;
• the purposes communicated to you before or at the time your personal information is collected;
• our own legitimate business needs;
• complying with our legal or regulatory obligations;
• establishing, exercising or defending our legal rights;
• preventing, detecting, and investigating fraud.

If your personal information is needed for more than one purpose, we will retain it until the end date of the purpose with the longest duration. In any case, we will discontinue any use of information for purposes with earlier end dates as soon as such dates are reached.

Personal information that is no longer needed is either irreversibly anonymized or securely destroyed in accordance with applicable laws.

To learn more about our retention and destruction policies and practices, including the period of time that your personal information will be kept, you can contact our Privacy Officer as described in the HOW TO CONTACT US section at the beginning of this Policy.

In addition to the protective measures detailed in the WHO WE SHARE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION WITH section, BRP ensures that your personal information is protected against loss and unauthorized access, use or disclosure throughout its life cycle. Your personal information is kept secured and access is strictly limited to only those persons who need to use it for the relevant purpose. BRP employs physical, technical, and organizational measures to ensure your personal information receives an adequate level of protection while it is under our care, including when your personal information is transferred to one of our recipients located outside of your country of residence.

Our websites or mobile applications may offer links to third-party websites. The operators of linked websites may also collect your personal information (including information generated through the use of cookies and payment information) when you use their websites. To the extent permitted by applicable law, BRP is not responsible for how such third parties collect, use, or disclose your personal information. It is important to familiarize yourself with their privacy policies before providing them with your personal information.

BRP’s websites, applications, web apps, products, and services are not targeted to or intended for use by children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 16. Children under this age should not register nor provide BRP with any personal information without the consent of a parent or legal guardian.

If you think we have received personal information from children under the age of 16, please contact us as described in the HOW TO CONTACT US section at the beginning of this Policy.

The rights you have depend on your country of residence and on the laws or regulations that apply to your situation, but in most cases, you have the right to:

• Request that we confirm if we hold personal information about you and give you access to it;
• Request erasure of your personal information;
• Rectify your personal information when inaccurate or no longer up to date;
• Ask a question about how we handle your personal information;
• Make a complaint in relation with our handling of your personal information;
• Ask us to no longer send you our commercial communications.

Please read the dedicated section in the COUNTRY-SPECIFIC ADDITIONAL PRIVACY POLICIES to know more about other privacy rights you may have.

Commercial Communications

We use your contact information to communicate with you by email or other means of electronic communication, such as text messages or phone. You can always ask us to stop sending you commercial communications. The simplest way to do so is to withdraw your consent, which you can do at any time, either by clicking the unsubscribe link at the end of any newsletter or commercial communication or by contacting our Privacy Officer as described in the HOW TO CONTACT US section at the beginning of this Policy.

However, when you withdraw your consent from receiving commercial communications from BRP, you may continue to receive commercial communications from our dealerships and distributors, who have their own independent consent management system. The reverse is also true; you may continue to receive commercial communications from us when you unsubscribe only to those sent by our dealerships and distributors.

Other Rights Specific to the Use of Certain BRP Websites or Mobile Applications

When you use certain of our mobile applications or websites, depending on their functionalities, you can:

• Modify your profile to ensure that only certain information appears to other users;
• Decide not to provide some of the information requested (it may limit some of the uses and functionalities available to you);
• Deactivate or block the sharing of your location when you use the website or mobile application, including when participating in group riding events;
• Modify your location settings and the location permissions in your device settings, to ensure that your location is only shared by your device to the application during your utilization of the application. If you further limit access to location information, this may prevent you from using some or all of the functionalities of the website or application;
• Accept or refuse to receive push notifications relating to the website or mobile application, which are sent to alert you of new information;
• Delete the mobile application at any time or delete your account. If you do so, it will result in the deletion of certain information, such as your planned and completed rides, riding statistics, points of interest, saved locations and friends where applicable.

How You Can Exercise Your Rights

If you wish to exercise any rights listed above or in the dedicated section in the COUNTRY-SPECIFIC ADDITIONAL PRIVACY POLICIES, you may make a request by contacting our Privacy Officer as described in the HOW TO CONTACT US section at the beginning of this Policy. BRP may require relevant information or details in order to properly authenticate you. Once available, you will also be able to directly submit your privacy requests online through our Online Privacy Rights Portal (upcoming).

If you want to exercise a right specific to the use of certain BRP websites or mobile applications, you can do so by following the procedure listed in the terms and conditions of the website or mobile application you are using.

Please note that applicable laws may restrict or limit your rights, which means that in some situations as permitted by applicable laws, we are entitled to deny your request. In any case we will explain to you the reason why we cannot fulfill your request as permitted by law.

Only you or an authorized representative may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information. You may be required to submit proof of your identity to make a privacy right request and we may not be able to comply with your request if we are unable to confirm your identity or to connect the information you submit in your request with personal information in our possession.

We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.

Complaint Resolution

We are committed to working with you to resolve any concern you may have about our use of your personal information or to obtain a fair resolution to any complaint. If, however, you believe that we have not been able to assist with your complaint or concern, you may have the right to lodge a complaint with the data protection authority in your country or supervisory authority. Please refer to the dedicated section in the COUNTRY-SPECIFIC ADDITIONAL PRIVACY POLICIES for more details.

This Privacy Policy will be modified from time to time. In this case, we will keep you informed by updating the “Last Updated” date at the top of this Privacy Policy or by any other means of communication where appropriate. We recommend that you check occasionally this website to inform yourself of any changes.
