Who do we share your data with?

We may share your personal data with other staff members within TumuHost when you provide TumuHost with your information.

We take all reasonable steps to ensure that our staff protect your personal data and know their information security obligations. We limit access to your personal data to those who have a business need to know it.

Third Parties:

We may also share your personal data with trusted third parties, including:

Service providers contracted to us in connection with the provision of the products and services; this includes the service provider which runs election and voting at our annual general meeting;

Our insurers:

External and internal lawyers and/or specialist advisors

TumuHost may also be bound to share data with the police or other law enforcement agencies in the event of a crime.

We will ensure there is a contract in place with the categories of recipients listed above, which include obligations in relation to the confidentiality, security, and lawful processing of any personal data shared with them. We do not allow our third-party service providers to use your personal data for their own purposes and only permit them to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.

Protecting information outside of the USA:

Some of the organizations we share information with may be located outside of the USA. We will always take steps to ensure that any transfer of information outside of the USA is carefully managed to protect your privacy rights. We will ensure that the transfer of personal data will be protected by appropriate safeguards, including the use of standard data protection clauses where the data protection authority does not believe that the third country has adequate data protection laws.

Extraordinary Circumstances:

Occasionally and only where necessary to fulfill our legal obligations, conduct investigations, and/or deliver our services may share your information with law enforcement organizations such as the police or courts.

Examination Results:

All exam results will be held for a period of 5 years as this is a record of a person’s qualifications unless there is a specific request to delete the data via a right to be forgotten request.

TumuHost will share exam results and marks with the Training Provider as there is a ‘reasonable expectation’ for this information to be provided. TumuHost policy is not to share results with any employer (unless they also are your Training Provider), relative, or friend unless express consent is obtained to do so. Where TumuHost works with other Examination Providers (such as ISTQB or EXIN), we will share the exam marks with them.

Recordings:

We may record telephone calls you make to our customer contact center to train staff or check for mistakes. We may share your information with other organizations if they have a legal right to it.

We also record some interviews. If you are invited to an interview, we may ask your permission in advance of the interview starting, or we will use Legitimate Interest as our lawful basis for the recording. We record interviews in the event of a complaint or appeal. We will delete the call recording one month after made the call.
