In such case, we will require the relevant third parties to provide comparable levels of protection as the ServiceMax Group provides with respect to the information we share.

How We Protect the Confidentiality of Personal Information

ServiceMax takes the security of Personal Information seriously. ServiceMax has internal procedures and controls in place to protect Personal Information against loss, accidental destruction, misuse or disclosure, and to ensure that data is not accessed, except by authorized personnel in the proper performance of their duties. Where ServiceMax engages third parties to process Personal Information on its behalf, such parties do so on the basis of documented instructions, are under a duty of confidentiality, and are obliged to implement appropriate measures to help ensure the security of Personal Information.

Despite these efforts to store Personal Information in a secure operating environment, we cannot guarantee the security of Personal Information during its transmission or its storage on our systems. Further, while we attempt to ensure the integrity and security of Personal Information, we cannot guarantee that our security measures will prevent third parties such as hackers from illegally obtaining access to Personal Information. We do not represent or warrant that Personal Information about you will be protected against, loss, misuse, or alteration by third parties.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, we retain Personal Information we obtain about you as long as (1) it is needed for the purposes for which we obtained it, in accordance with the provisions of this Privacy Policy or (2) we have another lawful basis, stated in this Privacy Policy or at the point of collection, for retaining that information beyond the period for which it is necessary to serve the original purpose for obtaining the Personal Information.
