Cargill data privacy principles

Cargill observes the following principles in relation to Business Information:

We process it fairly and lawfully;
We process it for a specific legitimate business purpose and do not process in a manner incompatible with that purpose without your knowledge and/or consent;
We use Business Information that is adequate, relevant and not excessive for the purpose for which it is processed;
We keep it accurate and, as necessary, up to date;
We keep it in a form which permits identification for no longer than necessary for the purpose for which it was collected;
We protect it against accidental or unlawful destruction or accidental loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure or access, using appropriate technical and organizational measures;

Who is your Business Information disclosed to?

(a) Within Cargill

Cargill restricts access to Business Information to people within the company who have a “need to know” that information. As a global company doing business across national borders and with certain shared services and resources, there are many situations where this “need to know” requires your information to be transferred to Cargill in another country, including countries that may provide no legal protection for Personal Information. However, the purpose of the Cargill Data Privacy for Business Information Policy is to ensure protection for your Business Information in every country where Cargill does business based upon it being approved by the relevant EEA data protection authorities as ‘Binding Corporate Rules’.

(b) Outside Cargill

Cargill shares Business Information with authorized Third Party Service Providers. Where it does so, Cargill imposes appropriate contractual obligations regarding Business Information on such Third Party Service Providers.

Beyond its Third Party Service Providers Cargill will only disclose your Business Information to third parties outside Cargill:

when required to do so by law;
in response to a legitimate request for assistance by the police or other law enforcement agency;
to protect an individual’s vital interests or safety;
to seek legal advice from Cargill’s external lawyers or in connection with litigation with a third party;
in connection with the sale, purchase or merger of a business; or
to engage external auditors to validate Cargill’s financial accounts.

When doing so, your Business Information may be transferred to other countries which do not provide the same level of legal protection as in your own country. However, it is our practice to apply appropriate safeguards to protect your Business Information.

Exercising your rights

(i) Web Users, Customers and those representing Customers

If you would like a copy of any of your Business Information or if you would like to update or correct it or you would like to request Cargill to stop sending you marketing materials either generally or via a particular media, please contact Cargill. However, please note that we may continue to send you non-marketing communications (such as service related communications), and that we will keep a record of your request as well as your contact details to ensure that your request is respected.

If you have a concern about how Cargill has used your Business Information, as a first step, you should raise the concern in writing to the Cargill business with which you do business.

After investigating an escalated concern, the Global Privacy Office will respond to you in writing within a reasonable time setting out its conclusions together with details of any remedial action that it proposes to take.

In some circumstances, you have a right to request the erasure of your Business Information or a restriction to its use, to object to its use, to receive it in a portable format or to have it transmitted to another organization. If you wish to exercise any of these rights, please contact Cargill.

If your concern relates to Business Information subject to the laws of the European Economic Area and it has not been fully resolved by the Global Privacy Office, you are entitled to lodge your concern with your local Data Privacy Authority or before the courts in your country where you may seek compensation from Cargill for any loss or damage that you have suffered.
