- Collection of your Personal data directly from you, such as when you complete forms on our sites or when we provide services directly to you ; and
- Collection of your Personal data indirectly during your navigation of the site or via our service providers and/or technologies.

If we are unable to collect these mandatory Personal data items, we will not be able to manage your access to the site or to provide you our services.
For which purposes and on which legal basis will your Personal data be collected and processed? What Personal data does Sodexo Services Asia Pte Ltd and/or Sodexo Singapore Pte Ltd hold?
We may process, use, and disclose your Personal data for certain purposes as detailed below (by no means is this list exhaustive). We will collect and process your Personal data where necessary to provide you an access to the site, or when it is necessary to comply with a legal obligation to which we are subject. We will also collect and process your Personal data for Sodexo Services Asia Pte Ltd and/or Sodexo Singapore Pte Ltd’s legitimate interests, except where such interests are overridden by your interests or fundamental rights and freedoms. Where legitimate interests do not apply as a lawful basis for the Processing of Personal data under the applicable data protection laws, prior explicit consent will be alternatively collected if required by law.
To whom will your Personal data be disclosed?
Sodexo Services Asia Pte Ltd and/or Sodexo Singapore Pte Ltd is part of an international group (“Sodexo Group”) under the brand Sodexo.
There is a possibility that your Personal data will be transferred within or outside of the Sodexo Group.
- Within Sodexo
The security and confidentiality of your Personal data is of great importance to us. This is why we restrict access to your Personal data only to members of our staff only, to the extent it is strictly necessary to process your Personal data or to provide the services necessary for the site. We ensure that the persons authorized to process the Personal data have committed themselves to abide by confidentiality agreements or are under an appropriate statutory obligation of confidentiality.
We have also implemented appropriate safeguards to ensure an adequate level of protection of your Personal data, even if the Personal data is processed by another Sodexo entity that did not collect your Personal data originally.
Sodexo has implemented the Sodexo’s Binding Corporate Rules (BCRs) within Sodexo Group. Therefore, even if the third countries in which Sodexo entities operate are located outside of the European Economic Area, your Personal data is protected in the same way that they would have been by any entity located within the European Economic Area.
- Outside Sodexo
We will not disclose your Personal data to any unauthorized third party. We may, however, share your Personal data with authorized service providers (for example, technical service providers (hosting, maintenance), consultants, etc.) whom we may call upon for the purposes listed above in compliance with the applicable data protection laws.
All third-party service providers to whom we have disclosed and transferred your Personal data have been engaged under a binding confidentiality and data processing agreement with Sodexo Services Asia Pte Ltd and/or Sodexo Singapore Pte Ltd or the Sodexo Group’s entities, whereby said third party may act only upon the instruction of Sodexo Services Asia Pte Ltd and/or Sodexo Singapore Pte Ltd or Sodexo Group’s entities.
This third-party service provider and/or other contractors, as the case may be, may be located in countries where data protection laws may not provide a level of protection equivalent to your country. If Sodexo Services Asia Pte Ltd and/or Sodexo Singapore Pte Ltd or Sodexo group’s entities disclose your Personal data to such recipients, we will establish and/or confirm that, prior to receiving any of your Personal data, they will provide an adequate level of protection for your Personal data, including appropriate technical and organizational security measures. In particular, if the recipients concerned are located in a country that does not provide an adequate level of protection, Sodexo Services Asia Pte Ltd and/or Sodexo Singapore Pte Ltd or Sodexo group’s entities will also implement other appropriate measures, such as standard contractual clauses, to secure such transfer in compliance with applicable law. If you want to access a copy of the relevant documentation, please send an email to dpo.sg.apac@sodexo.com.
Furthermore, we may share your Personal data (i) if the law or a legal procedure requires us to do so, (ii) in response to a request by public authorities or other officials, or (iii) if we are of the opinion that transferring this data is necessary or appropriate to prevent any physical harm or financial loss, or in respect of an investigation concerning a suspected or proven unlawful activity.
How long will your Personal data be held?
We will store your Personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected and processed, as described below. This period may be extended, if applicable, for any amount of time prescribed by any legal or regulatory provisions that may apply.
Finally, please note that we may anonymize your Personal data in such a way that you can no longer be identified and continue to use it for statistical purposes. Data used for statistical purposes is no longer classified as Personal data once it has been duly anonymized.
Sensitive Personal data
As a general rule, we do not collect sensitive Personal data via our site or to provide our services.
“Sensitive Personal data” refers to any information concerning a person’s racial or ethnic origins, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, union membership, health data, or data relating to the sexual life or the sexual orientation of a natural person. This definition also includes Personal data relating to criminal convictions and offenses.
In the event that it would be strictly necessary to collect such data to achieve the purpose for which the Processing is performed, we will do so in accordance with local legal requirements for the protection of Personal data and, in particular, with your prior explicit consent.
Personal Information and Children
Our sites and services are provided for adults who have the capacity to conclude a contract under the applicable legislation of the country in which they are located. For the provision of the services, we might process Personal data of children, but it is always done with the consent of their legal guardian.
Your Privacy Rights
It is important that the Personal data we hold about you is accurate and up to date. Where applicable, please keep us informed of your Personal data changes by updating your account on the site.
Sodexo Services Asia Pte Ltd and/or Sodexo Singapore Pte Ltd is committed to ensuring protection of your privacy rights under applicable laws.

What we may need from you
We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access the information (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is another appropriate security measure to ensure that Personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it.

How will my Personal data be protected?
We implement all possible technical and organizational security measures to ensure security and confidentiality in Processing your Personal data.
To this end, we take all necessary precautions, given the nature of the Personal data and the risks related to its Processing, in order to maintain data security and, in particular, to prevent distortion, damage, or unauthorized third-party access (physical protection of the premises, authentication procedures with personal, secured access via identifiers and confidential passwords, a connection log, encryption of certain data, etc.).
In addition, if we contract with Processors for all or part of the Processing of your Personal data, we require a contractual agreement from our service providers to guarantee the security and confidentiality of the Personal data that we transmit to them or that they collect on our behalf, in accordance with the applicable regulations on the protection of Personal data.
We regularly conduct audits to verify the proper operational application of the rules relating to the security of your Personal data.
Nevertheless, you also have a responsibility to ensure the security and confidentiality of your Personal data so we invite you to remain vigilant, especially when using an open system such as the Internet.
