5 – Why do we use your Personal Data?

CGI will Process Personal Data only when strictly necessary and apply further principles on the basis of whether CGI acts as a Data Controller or as a Data Processor.

5.1 Principles when CGI acts as a Data Controller

Transparency, fairness and lawfulness: CGI will Process Personal Data lawfully, fairly and in a transparent manner in relation to the Data Subject, in accordance with the requirements of this Policy through the use of data privacy notices clearly setting out information necessary for compliance with the Applicable Data Protection Legislation.

Defining a purpose: any Processing of Personal Data by CGI, particularly the collection thereof, will be preceded by the identification of the specific purpose for such Processing. Such purpose must be explicit and legitimate. Personal Data cannot be further Processed in a manner that is incompatible with such purpose.

Data minimization: once the purpose for Processing Personal Data has been established, CGI will only collect Personal Data to the extent required for accomplishing such purpose. Each instance of Data Processing detail is to be reviewed as part of the early solution design phases and included in the Data Privacy and Security review and approval process or otherwise in order to ensure that the Personal Data is adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary in relation to the purpose for which it is Processed.

Quality of Personal Data: throughout the life cycle of any Personal Data Processing, CGI will ensure that the collected Personal Data remains accurate and up to date. Every reasonable step will be taken to ensure that Personal Data that is inaccurate is erased or rectified without delay including but not limited to self-service options for Data Subjects. In particular, CGI will provide adequate means for Data Subjects to inform CGI in case of any change in their Personal Data.

Data retention limitation: CGI will ensure that it does not keep your Personal Data for a longer period than strictly necessary to achieve the purpose for which your Personal Data is collected. Consequently, CGI will determine before the performance of the Processing an appropriate retention period. In doing so, CGI will consider the time during which the Personal Data is necessary to achieve the purpose of the Processing while taking into account the following factors:

  • Period after which maintenance of such Personal Data may have an impact on Data Subjects’ rights to be forgotten; and
  • Any legal obligations imposing a minimum data retention period, as may be defined in the CGI Records Retention Policy and Records Retention Schedule or otherwise.

Defining a legal basis: in addition to the above principles, any Processing may be performed only where it falls under one of the circumstances identified below:

  • It is necessary to comply with a legal obligation applicable to CGI (e.g., report data to tax authorities); or
  • It is necessary for the execution of a contract (e.g. services agreement with a client); or
  • It is necessary for the legitimate interest of CGI, being understood that this legitimate interest of CGI must be assessed against the interests of the Data Subjects:
    • The Processing is necessary to achieve the interest pursued by CGI without adversely impacting the Data Subject’s interest and/or privacy;
    • CGI’s interest is not overridden by the fundamental rights or interests of the Data Subjects; and
    • CGI’s interest shall be determined in light of CGI’s core business but shall comply with any Applicable Data Protection Legislation in a transparent manner;
  • It is necessary to the vital interest of the Data Subject, or
  • It is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest.

If none of the above legal basis apply, CGI will seek and retain the Data Subjects’ prior consent before Processing its Personal Data, being understood that Data Subject’s consent is valid when (i) it is freely given by a clear affirmative act; and (ii) it represents a specific, informed and unambiguous indication of the Data Subject's agreement to the Processing of his/her Personal Data.

Technical and Organizational Measures: CGI will implement appropriate technical and organizational measures, at least equivalent to those prescribed in CGI’s Enterprise Security Management Framework (ESMF), to guard against unlawful access and/or Processing of Personal Data. In particular, CGI will grant access to Personal Data only when it is necessary to accomplish assigned tasks consistent with the purpose for which the Personal Data is Processed. Where CGI uses a third party to undertake Processing on its behalf it will ensure that equivalent measures are put in place by that third party through contractual agreements. In the event of unlawful access and/or Processing, CGI will comply with its Information Security Policy and related procedures.

Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA): CGI shall be responsible for monitoring Data Processing compliance with Applicable Data Protection Legislation. Where a type of processing in particular using new technologies, and taking into account the nature, scope, context and purpose of the processing, is likely to result in a high risk to the protection of your data, CGI shall implement a data protection impact assessment procedure that shall enable CGI to:

  • identify which Processing presents any specific risk for the protection of Personal Data;
  • assess the level of compliance with the Applicable Data Protection Legislation Processing principles;
  • assess the level of severity or likelihood of risk associated with the Processing; and
  • determine the corrective measures to be implemented to ensure that Personal Data is Processed with risks that are mitigated and performed in compliance with the Applicable Data Protection Legislation. If, after mitigation, the risks to the Data Subjects remain significant and when required by Applicable Data Protection Legislation, the competent Data Protection Authority will be consulted prior to the start of the intended Processing.

Data Privacy Impact assessment document will be retained for the duration of Data Processing to which they apply.

5.2 Principles when CGI acts as a Data Processor

CGI will ensure that it Processes Personal Data solely in accordance with the documented instructions of the Data Controller.

In particular, such Processing shall be:

  • For the Data Controller sole expressed purposes;
  • Made under the conditions agreed to between CGI and the Data Controller;
  • For no longer than is expressly prescribed by the Data Controller; and
  • According to the Data Controller’s written instructions as set out in the Data Processing agreement entered into between CGI and the Data Controller.

The Data Controller remains solely responsible for ensuring a valid legal basis for the Processing performed by CGI and that the required Processing complies with Applicable Data Protection Legislation including the retention period to be applied. Nonetheless, CGI will promptly inform the Data Controller if, in its opinion, an instruction of the latter infringes the Applicable Data Protection Legislation.

Unless otherwise instructed by the Data Controller, CGI will apply (as a minimum) the same security baseline as it applies when it is acting as a Data Controller. Security measures which do not comply with the security baseline (as a minimum) will require the approval of CGI Privacy and Security representatives.

CGI will provide reasonable assistance to the Data Controller to support it in undertaking its obligations under Applicable Data Protection Legislation. The assistance to be provided by CGI to Data Controller for compliance purposes in accordance with this section will be subject to the financial, technical and organizational conditions agreed between CGI and Data Controller in the relevant agreement. Upon termination of the relevant Data Processing agreement, CGI and any third party engaged by CGI will either destroy or return all Personal Data to the client according to its instructions and Applicable Data Protection Legislation. In case of destruction, CGI will certify to the Data Controller that such deletion took place. In case of a return, CGI will ensure the confidentiality of the Personal Data transferred to the Data Controller by adhering to client’s instructions.

For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Policy limits CGI’s right to keep Personal Data for the purpose of existing litigation or to bring or defend future claims, in accordance with applicable legal statutes of limitation applicable to CGI.

5.3 Principles when CGI Processes Sensitive Personal Data

CGI, when acting as a Data Controller, will Process Sensitive Personal Data if and only if it is strictly required.

In such case, CGI shall ensure that at least one of the following conditions is met:

  • The Data Subject has given his/her prior consent; 
  • The Processing is required for the purposes of carrying out the obligations and exercising specific rights of the Data Controller or of the Data Subject in the field of employment and social security and social protection law;
  • If the Data Subject is not in a position to give his/her consent (e.g., for medical reasons), the Processing is necessary to protect the vital interests of the Data Subject or of another person;
  • The Processing is required in the context of preventive medicine or medical diagnosis by a health professional under Local Legislation;
  • The Data Subject has already manifestly placed the relevant Sensitive Personal Data in the public domain;
  • The Processing is essential for the purpose of establishing, exercising or defending legal claims, provided that there are no grounds for assuming the Data Subject has an overriding legitimate interest in ensuring that such Sensitive Personal Data is not Processed; or
  • The Processing is explicitly permitted by Local Legislation (e.g., registration/protection of minority groups).

Where CGI, as a Data Processor, is required to Process Sensitive Personal Data, CGI will follow the Data Controller’s written instructions and apply the measures agreed to between parties, which shall be at least equivalent to the CGI Security Baseline.

The Data Controller shall ensure a valid legal basis for the Processing performed by CGI.

In any case CGI will Process Sensitive Personal Data in accordance with Applicable Data Protection Legislation and comply with any mandatory specific hosting and Processing conditions.

5.4 Privacy by design/Privacy by default

As demonstrated by the commitments made under this Policy, CGI is committed to providing the appropriate level of protection for the Personal Data it processes. To ensure that the principles defined in this Policy are effectively considered when CGI processes Personal Data, CGI will identify and address any data protection constraints at the beginning of a new project so that the principles contained herein are reflected in the design of the project and appropriately implemented.

Where CGI acts as Data Processor, the Data Privacy organization, shall review and approve the Privacy aspects of the proposal and / or services developed for a client. Where CGI acts as Data Controller, the Data Privacy organization will have to provide approval of any new CGI internal project prior to the commencement of its development and subsequently implemented.

Where a solution is developed to become a CGI Intellectual Property to be proposed to clients as part of CGI’s services, the Data Privacy organization shall provide its approval.

6 – Management of Data Incidents and Breaches

6.1 Incident Management

CGI has a mature, standards-based security incident response and management process designed to handle all phases of a security incident. Members’ responsibilities are clearly defined at all levels. Incident assessment and prioritization standards are followed to ensure appropriate engagement levels and timely resolution. Incident records are maintained and reported to senior management as required. High-priority incidents are managed through CGI’s 24x7 Global Security Operations Centre (SOC), where highly trained, full-time incident response professionals coordinate response efforts. CGI’s Data Privacy team is immediately engaged in the incident management process whenever Personal Data is suspected to be involved.

6.2 Notification of Personal Data Breach

Whether acting as a Data Controller or as a Data Processor, if CGI reasonably believes that a breach of security leading to the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure of, or access to Personal Data transmitted, stored or otherwise Processed has occurred, CGI will provide security incident notification and status updates to the relevant Data Protection Authority, to Data Subjects and/or to the Data Controller, in accordance with Applicable Data Protection Legislation or any other local applicable laws.

Similarly, and for the sake of clarity, in the event a Personal Data breach is identified by a third party engaged by CGI, the third party will have to inform CGI as agreed upon in the relevant agreement.

7 – Who do we share your Personal Data with?

As part of CGI operations, we may collect your Personal Data and disclose them to:

  • CGI Legal Entities since you can benefit from our full range of solutions and services as part of our global delivery model;
  • third parties engaged by CGI and providing goods to CGI or performing services on our behalf (e.g. suppliers, subcontractors and freelancers);

CGI may also disclose your Personal Data to administrative, judicial or governmental authorities, state agencies or public bodies, strictly in accordance with Applicable Data Protection Legislation and Local Legislation, and after careful review, the legality of any order to disclose data. CGI will challenge the order if there are grounds under the law of the country of destination to do so.

8 – Transfer of Personal Data

Transfer of EU Personal Data shall refer to Personal Data of EU residents or Data Subjects located within the EU being Processed (e.g. accessed, sent, used, viewed, copied, deleted) in a third country outside the EEA.

8.1 Within CGI

CGI acting as a Data Controller or Data Processor will Transfer EU Personal Data in accordance with the Applicable Data Protection Legislation and in accordance with CGIs’ Binding Corporate Rules (“BCR”), approved under GDPR by the French Supervisory Authority on July 22nd, 2021. This means that your rights as Data Subject remain the same no matter where your Personal Data is Processed.

Should you require any information on CGI’s BCRs, please consult the Register of the European Data Protection Board or CGI - Privacy policy | CGI.com.

When CGI acts as Data Processor, prior specific or general consent is required in writing from the Data Controller before such transfer may be initiated.

Transfers of non-EU Personal Data shall take place in accordance with the Applicable Data Protection Legislation.

8.2 To third parties

Transfers of Personal Data to third parties shall take place in accordance with the Applicable Data Protection Legislation.

On a regular basis, CGI conducts due diligence and third party privacy and security risks assessments with all third parties engaged by CGI, to establish their corporate capabilities and maturity with respect to security and data protection.

Whenever CGI relies on such third parties to process Personal Data, CGI ensures that such third parties provide an adequate level of protection to the Personal Data they process as per Applicable Data Protection Legislation.

9 – What are your rights and how can you exercise them?

Data subjects have several rights under the Applicable Data Protection Legislation to request access to their Personal Data held by CGI and/or information about how CGI Processes their Personal Data. If you have any questions regarding the Processing of your Personal Data, please send your formal request to privacy@cgi.com.

When acting as a Data Processor, upon request, CGI will provide its clients with relevant information enabling such clients to comply with their own obligations toward Data Subjects.
