6.To whom we disclose personal data

In general, we only disclose personal data when required by law, or where disclosure is necessary for the purposes described in the table above. We strive to be a socially responsible player in the video surveillance industry. Due to the nature of our product and its potential adverse impact on the right to privacy if misused, we rely on our commitment to the United Nations Guiding Principles for Business and Human Rights. These principles guide our data disclosure in areas of operation identified as presenting higher levels of human rights risks. For more information, please refer to our human rights policy.

Recipients we disclose data to could be:

  • public authorities,
  • Milestone Group Companies and our local offices
  • partners via Our Partner network
  • third-party providers who, as data processors, are processing personal data on our behalf. For example, by providing our IT systems including hosting, backup, and support.

Transfers to third countries

In certain cases, we transfer personal data to recipients outside the EU and EEA. The typical recipients could be our customers and our sales channel partners, but recipients may also include our technology partners, our data processors, or third-party providers.

With recipients located outside the EU or the EEA, we enter into EU standard contractual clauses, which have been approved by the European Commission, before the transfer of the personal data. If you wish a list of our recipients, please contact us. Our contact information is found in section 9. Regardless of entering into data processing agreements and model clauses with our third-party providers’ European entities, it is necessary to inform you that the EU Court of Justice has in general found (Schrems II) that, from an EU perspective (please see latest status here), for US owned companies there are not an adequacy decision nor appropriate safeguards in place in the US, as they may possibly be required to give data access to the United States Intelligence Community without any judicial review. This means that, depending on the circumstance, Milestone also collects and transfers your personal data to the US either based on your consent, and for Milestone also based on Milestone’s legitimate interest (see Microsoft section above).

7. How long we keep personal data

We store personal data for the period necessary for the purpose(s) for which the personal data was collected. Please refer to the above table for the specific retention periods for each of the outlined purposes. Our internal guidelines outline our concrete deletion processes which are determined on either functionality or requirements deriving from applicable law, including demonstrations and auditing requirements.
