3. WHAT DOES IFF USE THE PERSONAL DATA FOR?

3.1 IFF will process the Personal Data collected by the federation for the following reasons:

  1. in order for IFF to be able to protect its rights and comply with its obligations in accordance with the Agreement;
  2. to develop and analyse the Service; and
  3. in order for IFF to be able to carry out marketing measures. The term "marketing measures" shall in this context mean communicating by means of, for example, newsletters, special offers and information regarding new functions in the Service provided by IFF.

3.2 The Personal Data processed in accordance with Sections 3.1 (b) and (c) are processed on the basis of IFF's legitimate interest in developing and improving the federation's operations and the Service.

3.3 The Personal Data is processed only for such time as necessary for the purposes for which the data was collected, as long as necessary, in order for IFF to be able to fulfil the federation's obligations pursuant to the agreement with you. These obligations shall cease upon termination of the agreement or in the event you close your membership account. However, IFF may save the Personal Data longer where required by law in order to protect the federation's interests, e.g. in conjunction with ongoing disputes. The Personal Data will be erased or anonymised when it is no longer relevant for the purposes for which it was collected. In this context, IFF wishes to clarify the following. If you post media content by means of the Service which contains Personal Data, you shall be responsible for such information in accordance with the provisions of Section 11. In the event another member has interacted with such media content, it shall constitute part of the other member's account. This means that any Personal Data in the media content will not be removed in the event you terminate the agreement or close your membership account.

3.4 In the event IFF cannot process your Personal Data, the federation cannot provide the Service. Your integrity is very important to IFF, and the federation will process your Personal Data collected and shared with the federation by you with the utmost care and in accordance with the federation's best practice, the Policy and applicable laws and rules.

4. INFORMATION TO THIRD PARTIES

4.1 IFF will not provide or share your Personal Data you have provided the federation with any third party other than when (i) such has been agreed upon between you and IFF (ii) as required by law, a decision of a governmental authority or a decision of a court of law, or (iii) where IFF retains outside service providers who perform services on behalf of the federation (hereinafter referred to as "Service Providers"). These Service Providers may process Personal Data and sometimes require limited access to Personal Data collected by IFF. IFF shall at all times strive to restrict such access to Personal Data and share only information which is reasonably required in order for the Service Providers to be able to perform their work or perform their services. IFF will also require that the Service Providers (i) protect your Personal Data in accordance with the Policy, and (ii) do not use or disclose your Personal Data for any purpose other than fulfilling their obligations pursuant to the agreement with IFF.

4.2 The Personal Data will not be provided to third parties for marketing purposes without consent.

5. TRANSFER TO THIRD COUNTRIES

5.1 Some of the Service Providers used by IFF conduct operations in third countries, i.e. countries outside the EU/EEA and Personal Data may accordingly be transferred to third countries.

A list of the Service Providers used from time to time and where they process Personal Data is available in the help centre on the Website.
