This policy sets out the basis on which Meggitt will collect and process any personal data from individuals.

We take the security of all the data we collect and process seriously. We attempt to adhere to internationally recognised information security standards such as ISO/IEC 27001: 2013. We have a framework of policies, procedures and training in place covering data protection, confidentiality and security and regularly review the appropriateness of the measures we have in place to keep the data we hold secure.
We will only share personal data with others when we are legally permitted to do so. When we share data with others, we put contractual arrangements in place to protect the data and to comply with our data protection, confidentiality and security standards.
We are an international company and use third parties located in other countries to help us run our business. As a result, personal data may be transferred outside the countries where we and our customers and suppliers are located. This includes to countries outside the European Union (“EU”) and to countries that do not have laws that provide specific protection for personal data. Where we transfer personal data outside of the EU we carry out due diligence to ensure adequate data protection, confidentiality and security standards are in place.
Personal data held by us may be transferred to:
We may share personal data with other Meggitt companies where necessary for administrative purposes and to provide goods and services to our customers and receive goods and services from our suppliers. Our business contacts are visible to and used by Meggitt users from other Meggitt companies to learn more about a contact, client or opportunity they have an interest in (please see the Business contacts [link] section of this privacy statement for more information about our processing of this type of data).
We use third parties to support us in providing goods and services and to help provide, run and manage our internal IT systems. For example, providers of information technology, cloud based software as a service provider, identity management, website hosting and management, data analysis, data back-up, security and storage services. The servers providing that cloud infrastructure are located in secure data centres around the world, and personal data may be stored in any one of them.
Occasionally, we may receive requests from third parties with authority to obtain disclosure of personal data, such as to check that we are complying with applicable law and regulation, to investigate an alleged crime, to establish, exercise or defend legal rights. We will only fulfil requests for personal data where we are permitted to do so in accordance with applicable law or regulation.
We recognise that transparency is an ongoing responsibility so we will keep this privacy statement under regular review.
