ADDITIONAL INFORMATION FOR APPLICANTS LOCATED OUTSIDE OF THE UNITED STATES

If you are located outside the US, including in the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom (the UK), and Switzerland, the following additional information applies to you, except as otherwise noted in the INTERNATIONAL SUPPLEMENTS.

Who is the Data Controller of Your Personal Data

The entity set out in the International Supplement for your jurisdiction will be a data controller of your personal data (as defined under applicable law). In many cases our US and UK entities (including Paramount Inc.) will also be data controllers of your personal data, as well as other Paramount entities with whom your personal data is shared from time to time, and as set out in this Notice.

Under applicable data protection law, there are various grounds on which we can rely when processing your personal data. In some contexts, more than one ground applies. The grounds for processing are as follows:

Where this test is not met, we do not rely on legitimate interest. This Notice serves as a record of our legitimate interest assessment.

Additional legal bases may apply in your jurisdiction.

Processing Special Personal Data

Where necessary in your jurisdiction, if we process special personal data about you (for example, processing personal data relating to diversity monitoring) we will also make sure that one or more of the grounds for processing special personal data applies. Personal data revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, health, sexual orientation, sex life, trade union membership and genetic and biometric data are subject to special protection and considered by certain privacy law, including EU privacy law, to be “special” or “sensitive” personal data. Data relating to criminal records or offences is treated in a similar way and, for purposes of this Notice, included in this definition. In some jurisdictions a different term may be used to describe data warranting special protection. However, the remainder of this Notice uses the term “special” personal data for ease.

In outline, these additional grounds for processing include:
