Our Binding Corporate Rules & Safeguarding Your Personal Data
Teleperformance (which includes PSG Global Solutions, Inc.) is proud to be one of a small number of global companies that has received approval for its Binding Corporate Rules from the Data Protection Authorities of the EU under the GDPR (EU General Data Protection Regulation). Our Binding Corporate Rules are Teleperformance Group’s global privacy framework. Our obtaining this approval reflects the importance we attach to protecting your personal data by adopting appropriate technical and organizational security measures and by the proper review of the processing we do. Approval of these Binding Corporate Rules enables us to transfer personal data within the Teleperformance Group globally in a manner that we consider provides appropriate safeguards and assurance. As a global group we need to share several processes to ensure that we are efficient and effective. Consequently, we transfer some personal data to countries, territories, or organizations that are located outside the European Economic Area. In the event of transfers to territories not recognized as ensuring an adequate level of protection by the European Commission, we rely upon our Binding Corporate Rules where appropriate and use the standard data protection clauses adopted by the European Commission or other transfer mechanisms approved under the EU General Data Protection Regulation otherwise. Teleperformance has appointed a DPO (Data Protection Officer) under the GDPR and this DPO is supported by the Privacy Office to oversee our privacy framework. For further information about our privacy framework including details of our Binding Corporate Rules and about those countries within the TP group to which we transfer personal information please see the Privacy Policy.
