We share personal information as follows:
By using our Online Services or providing us with your information, you are directly transferring your information to us in the U.S., Canada or UK. In addition, we may transfer your personal information to other countries where we do business or where data recipients identified in the “Information Sharing” section above are located. We do so for the purposes described in this Privacy Statement, including to satisfy our legal or business obligations under the laws of those foreign jurisdictions. Those countries may not have the same data protection laws as the country in which you initially provided the personal information. When your personal information is transferred to these other countries (such as the U.S.), we will protect that information as described in this Privacy Statement or as otherwise required by applicable law.
If you are located in the European Economic Area, Switzerland or UK, we will comply with applicable legal requirements regarding the provision of appropriate safeguards for the transfer of personal information to recipients in countries that are not deemed to provide an adequate level of data protection. These safeguards may include entering into EU or UK-approved Standard Contractual Clauses or other data transfer safeguards. You may request a copy of these safeguards by contacting us as described in the Questions About The Privacy Statement section below.
We maintain administrative, technical and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information against accidental, unlawful or unauthorized destruction, loss, alteration, access, disclosure or use.
To the extent required by applicable law, we retain your personal information for the time period reasonably necessary to achieve the purposes described in this Privacy Statement, or any other notice provided at the time of collection, taking into account applicable statutes of limitation and records retention requirements under applicable law. We may retain your personal information for a longer period in the event of a complaint or in reasonable anticipation of litigation.
Subject to applicable law, you may have certain rights regarding personal information we have collected about you. These rights may include the right to (i) request access to the personal information we have collected about you, (ii) update or correct such information if you believe there is an inaccuracy, (iii) restrict the processing of your personal information, (iv) request deletion of your personal information, (v) object to our use of your personal information, or (vi) request transmission of your personal information to another data controller.
If you would like to exercise any of these rights provided under your local law, please contact us at dataprivacy@hfsinclair.com. Where provided by law, you may withdraw consent you previously provided to us, and we will apply your preferences going forward as appropriate. This will not affect the lawfulness of our processing based on your consent prior to such withdrawal.
You may have a right in some jurisdictions, including residents of Canada, the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom, to file a complaint with your local data protection authority. While you are not required to do so, we encourage you to contact us directly to discuss any concerns that you may have and to allow us an opportunity to address your concerns.
