1. Scope of Privacy Policy
When This Policy Applies
This Privacy Policy is intended solely for, and is applicable only to, current and former California employees. Where relevant, it also applies to job applicants, interns, agency workers, contractors, consultants, directors, and other individuals whose information we collect in connection with providing employment. For ease of reference, this Privacy Policy generally refers to employee data, but this does not indicate in any way that an individual is our employee.
When This Policy Does Not Apply
This Privacy Policy does not apply to individuals who are not California residents.
This Privacy Policy also does not apply to our collection and use of your personal information in a consumer or business-to-business capacity. For more information on our collection and use of your personal information in that capacity, including how we process opt-out preference signals, please see our online privacy policy available here at https://transdevna.com/privacy-policy/.

If you are a California employee, you have the following rights with respect to your Personal Information:
- The right to know what Personal Information we have collected about you, including the categories of Personal Information, the categories of sources from which we collected Personal Information, the business or commercial purpose for collecting, selling, or sharing Personal Information (if applicable), the categories of third parties to whom we disclose Personal Information (if applicable), and the specific pieces of Personal Information we collected about you;

6. How to Submit a Request to Know, Delete, and/or Correct
You may submit a request to know, delete, and/or correct through our interactive webform available here at https://transdevnaitccpa.powerappsportals.com/CCPA-Form/, or by calling us at (800) 225-8880. You may also submit requests by emailing us at infoUS@transdev.com or by mail at Transdev, 720 E. Butterfield Rd. Ste 300, Lombard IL 60148.
If you are submitting a request on behalf of a California employee, please submit the request through one of the designated methods discussed above. After submitting the request, we will require additional information to verify your authority to act on behalf of the California employee.
In addition to the CCPA rights discussed above, California law provides current and former employees with the right to request certain information relating to their employment, such as the right to access their personnel file and payroll records. Because these requests are governed by laws that contain different requirements than the CCPA, we handle such requests separately from CCPA requests. If you would like to make such a request, please submit your request through https://transdevna.com/about-us/contact/.
If you would like to update your personal information, such as to notify us of a change of name or address, or if you have questions about your employment, please submit your request or question through https://transdevna.com/about-us/contact/.
7. Our Process for Verifying a Request to Know, Delete, and/or Correct
We will comply with your request upon verification of your identity and, to the extent applicable, the identity of the California employee on whose behalf you are making such request.
We will verify your identity either to a “reasonable degree of certainty” or a “reasonably high degree of certainty” depending on the sensitivity of the Personal Information and the risk of harm to you by unauthorized disclosure, deletion, or correction as applicable.
For requests to access categories of Personal Information and for requests to delete or correct Personal Information that is not sensitive and does not pose a risk of harm by unauthorized deletion or correction, we will verify your identity to a “reasonable degree of certainty” by verifying at least two data points that you previously provided to us and which we have determined to be reliable for the purpose of verifying identities.
For requests to access specific pieces of Personal Information or for requests to delete or correct Personal Information that is sensitive and poses a risk of harm by unauthorized deletion or correction, we will verify your identity to a “reasonably high degree of certainty” by verifying at least three pieces of Personal Information previously provided to us and which we have determined to be reliable for the purpose of verifying identities. In addition, you will be required to submit a signed declaration under penalty of perjury stating that you are the individual whose Personal Information is being requested.
8. Other Relevant Policies, Including Monitoring
When we hire you, we may provide you with other policies and procedures that govern your use of our offices, networks, computers, and other devices. We have the right to monitor your use of our offices and electronic resources in accordance with those policies and procedures.
For more information, please read our Employee Handbook, Acceptable Use Policy, Workplace Monitoring Policy, and, to the extent applicable, our Attendance Policy. You can find copies of these policies on our SharePoint site or by contacting your local work location.
