3. International transfers

We share your personal information within the L3Harris group. This includes transferring your information outside the European Economic Area (EEA) and/or the UK, including to the United States.

  • We will only transfer your personal information to countries deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal information by the European Commission and/or UK government; or
  • Where we use certain service providers, or transfer personal information within the L3Harris group, we may use data transfer agreements incorporating the model clauses approved by the European Commission - the so-called Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs), which give personal information the same protection it has in Europe.

Should you need further information on the specific mechanism used by us when transferring your personal information outside of the EEA and/or the UK, please Contact Us.

 


 

4. Information security

All information we collect and process about you is stored on our secure servers located in our various business units or hosted in secure cloud-based environments. We have put in place appropriate technical and organizational security measures to prevent your personal information from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorized way, altered or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your personal information to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties with a business need to know. They will only process your personal information on our instructions and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality. We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.
