5. Transfer of your personal data
To achieve the purposes set out above, we will transfer your personal data to the following categories of recipients:
- Within the Marvell Group. The Marvell entity which you are applying to is part of a wider group (the "Group"), which share management, human resources, legal, compliance, finance and audit resources, we may transfer your personal data to, or otherwise allow access to such data by other entities within the Group, which may use, transfer, and process the data for the following purposes: to maintain and improve recruitment processes; to maintain IT systems; to monitor and ensure compliance with applicable laws, policies and procedures; to establish and defend our legal rights; and to respond to requests and legal demands from regulators and other authorities. Our Group comprises companies in a number of EEA and non-EEA countries, including Germany, the USA, Israel, and India. To obtain up to date list of our entities, please contact us using the details provided below in section 8.
- Service providers assisting us in the development, performance and management of our recruitment processes. Service providers act as our processors and process your personal data under our instructions. The data processors are subject to contractual obligations to implement appropriate technical and organisational security measures to safeguard the personal information, and to process the personal information only as instructed.
- Regulators, authorities, and other third parties. As necessary for the processing purposes described above, personal data may be transferred to regulators, courts, and other authorities, independent external advisors, directors within the Group, internal compliance and investigation teams, external advisers appointed to conduct internal investigations, other service providers used by us or other members of our Group (for example, providers of online collaboration and productivity solutions, business software, cloud computing providers, legal and corporate administration services).
Some of the recipients referred to above are located or process personal data in countries other than your country. The level of data protection in another country may not be equivalent to that in your country. However, we only transfer your personal data to non-EEA countries if either the EU Commission has decided that the country has an adequate level of data protection or we provide appropriate safeguards. We generally provide those safeguards by entering into appropriate data transfer agreements based on Standard Contractual Clauses (pursuant to Article 46(2)(c) GDPR). You can get a copy upon request (see the contact details in section 8).
6. Retention periods
Your personal data will not be kept in a form that allows you to be identified for any longer than we reasonably consider necessary for achieving the purposes for which it was collected or processed or than the period prescribed by the applicable laws.
Your personal data will, in any case, be retained until the expiration of the latest period provided for by law for bringing legal claims against us in connection with the recruitment process. This is so that we can show, for example, that we have not discriminated against candidates on prohibited grounds and that we have conducted the recruitment exercise in a fair and transparent way.
After that, we will destroy your personal information in accordance with our data protection, data retention and data security policies.
If we wish to retain your personal information on file for the purposes of considering you for further opportunities that may arise in the future, we will seek your explicit consent to retain your personal information for a fixed period on that basis.
