Effective from: 18th October 2019
Yara has committed itself to the protection of Personal Data of Yara Customers, Suppliers and Business Partners by implementing the Yara Data Privacy Policy for Customer, Supplier and Business Partner Data, which together with the Yara Data Privacy Policy for Employee Data, constitutes Yara’s Binding Corporate Rules (“BCRs”) for the Processing and transfer of Personal Data within Yara.
The purpose of these Binding Corporate Rules is to ensure an adequate level of protection for Processing of Personal Data within Yara. Binding Corporate Rules enable Yara to make intra-group transfers of Personal Data across borders, provided that the rules set out herein are complied with. The BCRs have been approved by the competent Data Protection Authorities and are binding on Yara International ASA and its Group Companies.
Under European data protection legislation, transfer of Personal Data to countries outside the EEA that do not provide an adequate level of protection require a legal basis. The objective of Yara’s Binding Corporate Rules is to establish such legal basis for transfers of Personal Data from Group Companies established within the EEA to Group Companies established outside the EEA. The objective is also to establish an internal control system containing legally binding data protection principles for how Personal Data shall be processed within Yara, in accordance with the EU Data Protection Directive 95/46/EC, and from 25 May 2018, the EU General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 (GDPR).
This document is a public excerpt and summary of Yara’s Data Privacy Policy for Customer, Supplier and Business Partner Data and contains the material provisions and the data protection principles set out in Yara’s BCRs. It further explains Data Subjects’ rights and how to exercise those rights. For a full version of the Directive, please contact the Head of Data Privacy as set out in Article 23.
An overview of Group Companies bound by the BCR is available at the bottom of the page.
Capitalized terms have the meaning set out in Annex 1 (Definitions).

3.1 Legal Basis for Processing of Personal Data
Yara shall make sure that all Processing of Personal Data only takes place for legitimate Business Purposes and has legal basis.

If the Individual’s Consent is given in the context of a written declaration which also concerns other matters, the request for Consent shall, if applicable law so requires, be presented in a manner which is clearly distinguishable from the other matters, in an intelligible and easily accessible form, using clear and plain language.

This Article 7.3 shall not apply to the extent that Processing is necessary:
(i) for exercising the right of freedom of expression and information;

An Individual has the right to object, on grounds relating to his or her particular situation, at any time to Processing of Personal Data concerning him or her which is based on Article 3.1 (v) or (vi), including profiling based on those Articles.
Yara shall no longer Process the Personal Data unless it can demonstrate Overriding Interests in accordance with Article 12 or if it is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
Where Personal Data are Processed for direct marketing, the Individual shall have the right to object at any time to Processing as set out in Article 9 of this Policy.

8.5 Data Security Breach Notification to Individuals
If required under applicable law, Yara shall notify the Individual of a Data Security Breach without undue delay following discovery of such breach, if the Data Security Breach is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of the Individual.

(i) Yara has implemented and applied appropriate technical and organizational protection measures (such as encryption) to the Personal Data affected by the Data Security Breach;
(ii) Yara has taken subsequent measures which ensure that the high risk to the rights and freedoms of Individuals is no longer likely to materialize; or
