Monarch will not share your personal data with third parties except in line with permitted uses, as set out in Section 3 of this Policy or as specifically consented to by you. Monarch shares customer information across Monarch-owned business entities and companies working on our behalf, but only as described in this Privacy Policy.
Certain Monarch services may be linked with those from third-party companies, some which offer you the option to share personal data you provide with both Monarch and the third party. Examples include to request communications from Monarch marketing or solution partners. We will not share your personal data with third-party companies unless you make that choice.
Monarch contracts with third-party service providers and suppliers to deliver complete products, services and customer solutions and benefits. Suppliers and service providers are required to keep confidential the information received on behalf of Monarch consistent with this Privacy Policy and may not use it for any purpose other than to carry out the services they are performing for Monarch.
Circumstances may arise where, whether for strategic or other business reasons, Monarch decides to sell, buy, merge or otherwise reorganize businesses in some countries. Such a transaction may involve the disclosure of personal data to prospective or actual purchasers or receiving it from sellers. It is Monarch’s practice to seek appropriate protection for information, including personal data, in these types of transactions.
Monarch may share your personal data with third parties acting on behalf of Monarch, which may be located in other jurisdictions. We ensure that such transfers are lawful, including by ensuring that they are to jurisdictions that are considered to have equivalent privacy protections, and/or ensuring that the third parties to whom we transfer your personal data are under contract to Monarch and bound by appropriate data protection clauses or other approved safeguards, as applicable in each situation.

While you have restricted its processing, we will only store your personal data in question, and may process it only with your consent or to establish, exercise or defend legal claims or protect the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest. We will notify you before lifting the processing restriction.

h) Rights with respect to automated decision-making and profiling– You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you. You can object to your personal data being used in this way. We are permitted to use automated decision-making and profiling if the decision: (a) is necessary for entering into, or performance of, a contract between you and us; (b) is authorised by EU or a member state law to which we are subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests; or (c) is based on your explicit consent. Where we engage in automatic decision-making or profiling in connection with a contract between us or further to your explicit consent, we implement suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, at least the right to obtain human intervention from us in the course decision-making process, and the opportunity to express your point of view and to contest the decision.
