We will erase your information obtained by contacting you as soon as it is no longer needed to achieve the underlying purposes.

Business partners, clients and suppliers

We process personal data that we have received from you in the course of our business relationships, for example, to prepare and execute contractual relationships and for communication purposes. In doing so, we (including third parties or processors commissioned by us) process the following data from you or your employees, provided that you have communicated these to us before or during the course of the contractual relationship:

- your contact data or the contact details of the respective contact person (including, without limitation, name, telephone number, e-mail address)

- bank data, if this concerns personal data (IBAN, bank, account holder) and payment information (turnover data in payment transactions)

To the extent necessary to provide our services, we transfer personal data to other companies within the Nemak Group and process personal data that are rightfully transmitted to us by other companies within the Nemak Group.

The recipients may also be in third countries (i.e. countries outside the European Union and the European Economic Area "EEA").

These clauses provide appropriate safeguards for the protection of your data with service providers in the third country.

Transparency Helpline

Nemak uses a “Transparency Helpline”, an internal whistleblower system, designed to facilitate the reporting of compliance concerns. We have undertaken measures to establish appropriate safeguards according to Art. 46 of the GDPR to ensure the safety of your personal data being processed in a third country.

Personal data is processed for the purpose of reviewing and documenting the reports, for internal investigations (including disclosure to external attorneys, auditors or other professionals bound by professional secrecy as well as to the involved Nemak Group companies) and, if necessary, for disclosure to government agencies (such as the police, public prosecutor's office or courts). The legal basis for the processing of personal data in the scope of the Transparency Helpline is Art. 6(1)(c) of the GDPR, where it is necessary to fulfil legal obligations and Art. 6(1)(f) of the GDPR where the processing is based on our legitimate interests to ensure the compliance with our internal guidelines, such as the code of conduct or to protect us from legal claims.

When you use the Transparency Helpline, we will process the content of your notice, including any personal data included therein. Your name will only be processed if you decide to disclose it in your notice. Depending on the communication channel you choose, we will also store data relating to this (e.g. e-mail address, fax number). Kindly take note that you have no obligation to share this data with us but can also communicate any information anonymously. When we receive information, including personal data, via the Transparency Helpline, we handle this information with caution and confidentiality. Only such employees with a need-to-know basis in order to investigate the filing, are granted access to this information. We will store the information received in a filing for as long as required to fulfil the purposes mentioned above, but in no case exceeding a period of three years following the end of an investigation.

No transferring data to third parties

No personal data is transferred to third parties except if necessary to comply with applicable law. Given that external companies will process your personal data, we take all necessary legal, technical and organizational measures to make sure that these companies comply with the provisions of Data Protection Law.

Nemak is committed to implementing stringent mechanisms for the protection of personal data, in order to ensure the proper use of your data, always safeguarding their security, privacy, and confidentiality.
