Every person who is employed by, applies for employment or does business with RACEMARK INTERNATIONAL (hereafter the “Data Subject” or “you”) discloses a certain amount of personal data. The personal data is information which allows RACEMARK INTERNATIONAL to identify you as a natural person. You are identifiable as soon as it is possible to create a direct or indirect link between one or more data points and yourself. 

RACEMARK INTERNATIONAL is committed to the protection of the privacy of its Data Subjects, regardless of whether they are situated inside or outside the European Economic Area. We only use and process your personal data in accordance with the GDPR. The GDPR is short for the Regulation (EU) of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data (General Data Protection Regulation). This European regulation provides the highest level of privacy protection in the world. That is why we apply this high standard to all Data Subjects. APPROVED 01 MAY 2018
