This Policy explains what Personal Data we collect from you, why we collect and process your personal data, when and with whom your personal data is shared, and your rights with respect to your Personal Data.

This policy applies to all EPC employees and employees of the EPC global

In order to provide outstanding service, we must collect, maintain and process certain Personal Data about our customers, suppliers and other business contacts. We recognize and respect your privacy concerns and expectations about how we use this information. We want you to know about our privacy policies and practices, and what we do to protect your Personal Data.

Personal Data We Collect on our Website
In general, you can visit EPC websites without telling us who you are and without giving any personal data about yourself. There are times, however, when we may need information from you. When you select the “Contact EPC” button, we will ask you to read and agree to this Privacy Policy before you submit your Personal Data to us.

If you apply for a job through our websites, we may collect and process Personal Data you submit to us such as name, address, references, and employment history in order to evaluate your qualifications for a job and contact your references. We will retain your information until the position is filled and for up to six months after the position is filled in case other positions become available.

In all cases in which you submit personal information over our websites, you may tell us that you do not want us to use this information to make further contact with you beyond fulfilling your requests, and we will respect your wishes. If you give us personal information about someone else, such as a spouse, a reference, or a work colleague, we will assume that you have that person’s permission to do so. In any case, we will only retain your personal data for as long as we have a legitimate and lawful reason to do so.
