EU Personal Data is processed subject to the Privacy Shield Principles.

NOTICE. MS SHIFT, INC. informs individuals about the types of personal data collected and, where applicable, the entities or subsidiaries of MS SHIFT, INC. also adhering to these principles. MS SHIFT, INC. informs individuals of the purposes for which it collects and uses information about them, the identities or types of third-parties to which MS SHIFT, INC. discloses the information, the purposes for which MS SHIFT, INC. may disclose and the choices and means MS SHIFT, INC. offers individuals for limiting the use and disclosure of such personal information.
This notice will be provided in clear and conspicuous language when individuals are first asked to provide personal information to MS SHIFT, INC. or as soon thereafter as is practicable, but in any event before MS SHIFT, INC. uses such information for a purpose other than that for which it was originally collected or processed by the transferring organization or discloses it for the first time to a Third-Party.

CHOICE. MS SHIFT, INC. offers individuals the opportunity to choose whether their personal information is: (a) to be disclosed to a Third-Party; or (2) to be used for a purpose that is incompatible with the purpose(s) for which it was originally collected or subsequently authorized by the individual. MS SHIFT, INC. provides individuals with clear and conspicuous, readily available, and affordable mechanisms to exercise these choices.
MS SHIFT, INC. will not provide “choice" when disclosure is made to a third party that is acting as an agent to perform task(s) on behalf of and under the instructions of MS SHIFT, INC. MS SHIFT, INC. shall always enter into a contract with such agent to protect the confidentiality and security of your personal data.

MS SHIFT, INC. will obtain the express consent (opt in) from individuals if Sensitive Information is to be: (a) disclosed to a third party; or (b) used for a purpose other than those for which it was originally collected or subsequently authorized by the individuals through the exercise of opt-in choice. MS SHIFT, INC. will treat as sensitive any Personal Information received from a third party that identifies and treats it as sensitive.

ACCOUNTABILITY FOR ONWARD TRANSFER. To transfer personal data to a third party acting as an agent, MS SHIFT, INC. shall:
  • Transfer such personal data only for limited and specified purposes.
  • Ascertain that the agent is obligated to provide at least the same level of privacy protection as is required by the Privacy Shield Principles.
  • Take reasonable and appropriate steps to ensure that the agent effectively processes the personal information transferred in a manner consistent with MS SHIFT, INC.’s obligations under the Privacy Shield Principles.
  • Require the agent to notify MS SHIFT, INC. if the agent determines it can no longer meet its obligation to provide the same level of protection as is required by the Privacy Shield Principles.
  • Upon notice, take reasonable and appropriate steps to stop and remediate unauthorized processing.
  • Provide a summary or representative copy of the relevant privacy provisions of its contract with that agent to the US Department of Commerce upon request.
To transfer personal data to a third party acting as a controller, MS SHIFT, INC. shall comply with the Notice and Choice principles. MS SHIFT, INC. shall also enter into a contract with the third-party controller. The contract shall provide that such data may only be processed for limited and specified purposes consistent with the consent provided by the individual. It will provide the same level of protection as the Privacy Shield Principles. The contract will require the controller to notify MS SHIFT, INC. if the controller determines it can no longer meet this obligation. The contract shall provide that when such a determination is made the third party controller shall cease processing or take other reasonable and appropriate steps to remediate.

SECURITY. MS SHIFT, INC. shall take reasonable and appropriate measures to protect Personal Data from loss, misuse and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and destruction, taking into due account the risks involved in the processing and the nature of the personal data.

ACCESS. MS SHIFT, INC. provides individuals with access to their personal data for purposes of correcting, amending or deleting that information where it is inaccurate or has been processed in violation of the Principles. Access will not be provided where the burden or expense of providing such access would be disproportionate to the risks to the individual’s privacy or where the rights of persons other than the individual would be violated. A reasonable fee compensating MS SHIFT, INC. for resource use related to accessing, changing or deleting the personal information may be charged.

RECOURSE, ENFORCEMENT AND LIABILITY. Effective privacy protection includes robust mechanisms for assuring compliance with the Principles, recourse for individuals who are affected by non-compliance with the Principles, and consequences when the Principles are not followed.
