This Privacy Statement relates to all personal data that we receive from you and that we collect and process about you (i) in the context of your application and the resulting recruitment process or (ii) for inclusion in our database.

These personal data can include: identification and contact details, personal characteristics (such as gender and date of birth), education and work experience (including results, certificates, degrees, references), job preferences, interests, hobbies, video material, audio material, financial data (e.g. current and desired salary), all data in your CV and cover letter, all publicly available data on public websites, and all other personal data you have provided to us orally or in writing in the context of your application.

1. evaluating your skills, qualifications and interests against our career opportunities;
2. checking your data, your references and/or conducting background checks (where applicable);
3. communication concerning the recruitment process and your application; and

The processing for the purposes 1, 2 and 3 described above are necessary for the potential conclusion of an agreement between you and Newell Brands and the processing for purpose 4 is based on the legitimate interest of Newell Brands to improve its processes on the basis of your application and recruitment procedure.

Your personal data is collected by or on behalf of the Controller. Within this entity only certain members of the HR department and managers have access to your personal data. In certain cases, technical staff members may also have access to your personal data, but only insofar as is necessary to ensure the proper functioning of our technical systems.

Newell Brands may make use of external service providers or third parties for any of the purposes described above (e.g. recruitment websites, agencies conducting background checks or talent management system providers). These processors instructed by us may also include companies within the Newell Brands group that provide services on our behalf (e.g. IT services). In such cases, access to your personal data will be limited to the purposes described in this Privacy Statement, and in accordance with the requirements of the applicable data protection legislation.

We also share your data with the following recipients, which act as independent controllers:

• Newell Europe Sàrl, Chemin de Blandonnet 10 Vernier, 1214 Switzerland, and Newell Poland Services SP. Z O.O. Plac Andersa 7 Poznan, 61-894 Poland (both Newell Brands Group companies) in the context of centralized recruitment services. Within these two entities only specific staff members within the HR department have access to your personal data as well as technical staff members as far as this is necessary to ensure the proper functioning of their technical systems.
• External consultants (e.g. lawyers and accountants);
• Authorities;
• Courts; and
• Others as far as we are obliged to transfer your data or we received your respective consent.

We may transfer your data to third countries (countries outside the European Economic Area), for instance to our affiliate Newell Europe Sàrl located in Switzerland. Please note that the European Commission has affirmed an adequate level of data protection for Switzerland.

In the event of transfer of your personal data to a country outside of the European Economic Area, Newell Brands systematically ensures the application of an adequate level of protection of such personal data by approved means (e.g. selecting “Privacy Shield”-certified processors or putting in place standard contractual clauses on the processing of personal data, in accordance with the EU Commission model clauses). You can request more information about such measures (including copies where relevant) by contacting the Controller using the contact details below.

The retention period of your personal data depends on the outcome of the application process.

If your application is successful, your personal data obtained in the context of the application and recruitment procedure will be included in your personnel file. You will then be informed separately of how Newell Brands processes personal data of employees.

Until such deletion, we will restrict the use of this data to the purpose of litigation management. In the event of any legal dispute, we will be obliged to store your personal data for the duration of the legal proceedings and afterwards in accordance with statutory retention periods up to 10 years or such shorter or longer period as is prescribed by local law.

If you consent to your data being stored for a longer period so that we may contact you in relation to future suitable vacancies, we will store your personal data until we receive notice of your withdrawal of your consent or, in any case, for the maximum period of 1 year. If you would not like to be considered further for other positions, please let the relevant HR recruitment officer know.

If you wish to exercise any of these rights, please submit your request (i) using our Subject Access Request or (ii) to your relevant HR recruitment officer.

You remain responsible for any personal data you provide and for the consequences of such action.
