SHARING PERSONAL DATA

We only share personal data with parties that we trust or where we are required to share data by applicable law. We require these third parties to respect the security and confidentiality of your personal data and to process personal data in accordance with applicable laws.

Group companies: we share personal data with other entities of the Indivior Group, for instance for internal reporting, security, market research and to optimise our products and services.
Service providers: we share personal data with our service providers to the extent this is relevant for their services, for example, to provide IT services, to handle payments, to investigate and prevent fraud, to distribute marketing communications, to optimise our services or to analyse data.
Legal consultants and insurers: If data processing is necessary for establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims we may also transfer your personal data to our legal consultants and insurers.

We evaluate and update these measures on a regular basis. We also have sound procedures in place to deal with any alleged data security breach and, if required by law, we will notify you thereof as well as any competent regulatory agency.
