Vertiv is a corporation established in the State of Delaware in the United States. As the controller of personal data, Vertiv shall, together with various Vertiv group companies that may collect your personal information, serve as joint data managers with respect to managing your data and fulfilling your requests.

Our personal information security principles:

Reasonable necessity: We process only the minimum categories and volume of personal information required to fulfill the purposes for which you provided consent and authorization. After the agreed-upon purpose is achieved, we will delete personal information or anonymize information as agreed.

  • Security and reliability: We will take sufficiently effective measures and technical means to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and usability of personal information.
  • Clarity and transparency: We process your personal information in a clear, easily understood, and reasonable manner, and we are subject to the external supervision of the Cyberspace Administration of China, Public Security Bureau, State or Local Administration for Market Regulation, and other public bodies.
  • Independent choice: We provide you with information management options so that you can make appropriate choices to manage your personal information.
Collection of information

When collecting your information, we will obey the lawfulness principle, meaning that we collect lawful information through lawful means. At the same time, we also obey the minimization principle, meaning that we collect only the minimum personal information required. We may collect your personal information in the following scenarios should you choose to provide it:

  • Employee management: Based on employee management needs, we will obtain your personal identity information (including name, sex, age, and identity card number), contact information (including cell phone number, emergency contact, personal email, and home address), personal account information (including bank card account number), and health and biological information (including medical records submitted when requesting time off) when you go through recruiting, join our employment, leave our employment, request time off, undergo medical check-ups, attend training, complete procedures for entering and exiting the country, and apply for housing subsidies and employee apartments.

Use of information

The only employees within our company that process your information are those who have been specially authorized to do so. We will also minimize the number of employees authorized to access your information in order to alleviate concerns regarding the leakage of personal information while enjoying our service.

We will use your information according the purposes stated above. If we plan to use your information for a purpose not specified in this Privacy Policy, we will first ask for your consent. If we plan to use information collected for a particular purpose to serve a different purpose, we will first ask for your consent. If you find that information you provided to us is inaccurate or incomplete, please email contact@vertiv.com for rectification.

Storage of information

We will comply with the requirements of all relevant laws and regulations, and data stored domestically will be retained within China.

After collecting personal information, we will immediately take technical and administrative measures to protect your information.

With respect to sensitive information that could endanger your person or property if leaked, provided unlawfully, or abused, we will store the information after processing through technical measures.

Generally speaking, we retain your personal information only for the minimum amount of time necessary to achieve the designated purpose. However, if required for compliance with applicable laws and regulations; requirements of court decisions, rulings, or other legal procedures; demands from relevant government agencies or legally authorized organizations; or for the protection of the safety of person, property, or other lawful interest of the customer, Vertiv, other users, or employees; we may change the retention period of personal information as necessary to ensure compliance with such legal requirements.
