Provision of personal data to Sixth Street is generally voluntary but we require certain information in order to comply with our legal and regulatory obligations and in order to perform our contractual obligations to you.

For example, if you fail to provide information which is relevant to your legal right to work in your country or your suitability to perform a role which is regulated (including personal data relating to criminal convictions and offences), we may not be able to employ you in that role or at all.

How we use your personal data

We (and our service providers performing services on our behalf) use and process the personal data that we collect, subject to applicable law, including for the following purposes:

  • Managing our workforce: managing work activities and personnel generally, including recruitment tasks such as processing applications and analysing qualifications, diversity and inclusion monitoring, background checking and providing access to facilities.

We process personal data for these purposes on the basis that it is necessary for our legitimate interests in managing and administering our business or to discharge our regulatory obligations or because we are required to do so by law.
  • Legal and compliance: compliance with legal, regulatory and other requirements, such as record-keeping and reporting obligations, physical access policies, conducting audits, management and resolution of health and safety matters, compliance with requests from government or other public authorities, responding to legal process such as subpoenas and court orders, pursuing legal rights and remedies, defending litigation, conducting investigations, ensuring that Applicants meet any applicable regulatory standards for their role and complying with internal policies and procedures. We process personal data for these purposes on the basis that we are required to do so by law or to discharge our regulatory obligations, for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, and/or in connection with our legitimate interest in complying with non-EEA/UK legal and regulatory obligations.
  • Sensitive information: we may also collect and process certain types of Sensitive Personal Data for specific purposes, including: the collection of health/medical information in order to accommodate a disability or illness, to establish fitness to work, diversity-related personal data (such as gender, race or ethnicity), and information relating to criminal, credit and other background checks.

We do not collect your Sensitive Personal Data unless we are required or permitted to do so by applicable law or regulations, or you have, in accordance with applicable law, provided your explicit consent to the collection and processing of your Sensitive Personal Data.

Data sharing

Given the globally integrated nature of our business we may share your personal data for the above mentioned purposes with Sixth Street-related entities in other jurisdictions, including the United States of America.

We may also share personal data with service providers that perform services on our behalf, such as recruitment platforms, analytics providers and information technology and hosting providers. In accordance with applicable law, where applicable, we will have entered into legally binding agreements requiring them to use or disclose personal data only as necessary to perform services on our behalf for the purposes described in this Notice or comply with applicable legal or regulatory requirements.

In addition, we (and our service providers) may disclose personal data about you (a) if we or they are required or permitted to do so (i) by law or legal process, for example due to a court order or a request from a law enforcement agency, or (ii) to establish, exercise or defend our legal rights, or (iii) by our regulator(s) or any applicable regulations; (b) when we or they believe disclosure is necessary or appropriate to prevent physical harm or financial loss, (c) in connection with an investigation of suspected or actual fraudulent or other illegal activity, or (d) in connection with (i) fundraising, (ii) the making, management or disposition of any of our investments, or (iii) business continuity purposes.

Data Transfers

We (or our service providers) may transfer the personal data that we collect about you to recipients in countries other than the country in which the personal data originally was collected. Those countries may not have the same data protection laws as the country in which you initially provided the personal data, and may offer a lower level of protection. When we or they transfer your personal data to recipients in other countries (such as the U.S.), we or they will protect that personal data in a way that is consistent with this Notice.

We or they will comply with applicable legal requirements providing adequate protection for the transfer of personal data to recipients in countries outside of the EEA and UK and Switzerland. In all such cases, we or they will only transfer your personal data if:

  • The country to which the personal data will be transferred has been granted a European Commission adequacy decision; or
  • We have put in place appropriate safeguards in respect of the transfer, for example the EU or UK Standard Contractual Clauses.

You may request a copy of the safeguards that we or they have put in place in respect of transfers of personal data by contacting us as described below.

How we protect your personal data

We (and our service providers) maintain technical and organisational measures designed to protect your personal data against loss or accidental, unlawful or unauthorised, alteration, access, disclosure or use. We implement and maintain reasonable security appropriate to the nature of the personal information that we collect, use, retain, transfer or otherwise process. While we are committed to developing, implementing, maintaining, monitoring and updating a reasonable information security program, no such program can be perfect; in other words, all risk cannot reasonably be eliminated. Data security incidents and breaches can occur due to vulnerabilities, criminal exploits or other factors that cannot reasonably be prevented. Accordingly, while our reasonable security program is designed to manage data security risks and thus help prevent data security incidents and breaches, it cannot be assumed that the occurrence of any given incident or breach results from our failure to implement and maintain reasonable security.

Data retention

Your personal data is retained by us and/or our service providers for the duration of your relationship with Sixth Street, plus a reasonable period thereafter as necessary to fulfil the purposes described above. Retention periods may be extended if we are required to preserve your personal data in connection with litigation, investigations and proceedings, or if a longer retention period is required or permitted by applicable law or regulatory obligations.

Your rights and choices

Subject to applicable law, you have the right to:

  • request confirmation of whether we process personal data relating to you and, if so, to request a copy of that personal data
  • request that we rectify or update your personal data that is inaccurate, incomplete or outdated
  • request that we erase your personal data in certain circumstances, such as where we collected personal data on the basis of your consent and you withdraw that consent
  • request that we restrict the use of your personal data in certain circumstances such as while we consider another request that you have submitted, for example a request that we update your personal data;
  • withdraw your consent where you have given us consent to process your personal data; and object to our processing your personal data in certain circumstances, for example where we process it on the basis of our legitimate interests or for direct marketing purposes; and in certain circumstances, request that we provide you with a copy of your personal data which you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used and machine readable format and/or that we transmit that data to a third party (where this is technically feasible).

These rights also apply to personal data processed by our service providers on your behalf. If you wish to exercise any of your data protection rights or if you consider that we have processed your personal data in violation of applicable law, please contact us as detailed in the “How to contact us” section below.

If you consider that we or our service providers have processed your personal data in violation of applicable law and failed to remedy such violation to your reasonable satisfaction, you may also lodge a complaint with the data protection supervisory authority in your country.
