7.4 As part of the recruitment process, we may engage a third-party provider to carry out background checks on our behalf relating to criminal convictions (in the UK, these are referred to as DBS checks); education history; prior employment history and global sanctions and enforcement. We and our third party provider rely upon your explicit consent as the appropriate ground and condition for processing of such data.

8.4 Restrictions on use of your personal information by those we share it with

(a) Any third parties with whom we share your personal information are limited (by law and/or by contract) in their ability to use your personal information and the purposes for which they use it. In respect of third party service providers who are processing data on our behalf, we only permit them to process personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.

10.4 In some circumstances we (and/or third parties) may anonymize your personal information so that it can no longer be associated with you, in which case we may use such information without further notice to you.

10.5 Once it is no longer necessary to retain your personal information, we will securely destroy it in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.

11. Change of purpose

11.1 We will only use your personal data for the purposes for which we collected it, unless we reasonably consider that we need to use it for another reason and that reason is compatible with the original purpose. If we need to use your personal data for an unrelated purpose, we will notify you and we will explain the lawful basis which allows us to do so (which may require us to obtain your consent for the new purpose).

11.2 Please note that we may process your personal data without your knowledge or consent, in compliance with the above rules, where this is required or permitted by local law.

12. Your rights

12.1 You have certain rights in relation to your personal information. If you would like further information in relation to these or would like to exercise any one of them, please contact the Human Resources team at the Accelya company for which you have applied to work or the Data Protection Officer for Accelya, whose email address is [email protected].

12.2 In certain circumstances (and subject to local law requirements), you have the right to request that we:

(a) provide you with a copy of any personal information which we hold about you;

(b) update any of your personal information which is out of date or incorrect or incomplete;

(c) delete any personal information which we hold about you if it is no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which it was collected or processed (or, in some instances, where you have withdrawn your consent or objected to the processing);

(d) restrict the way that we process your personal information;

(e) provide your personal information to a third party;

(f) consider any valid objections which you have to our use of your personal information (where we are relying on our legitimate interests (or those of a third party) as the basis for the processing or that the processing is in the public interest); and

(g) provide a copy of any agreement under which your personal data is transferred outside of the UK and EEA (for UK and EEA staff).

12.3 We will consider all such requests and provide our response within the time period stated by applicable law. Please note, however, that certain personal information may be exempt from such requests in certain circumstances, which may include if we need to keep processing your personal information for our legitimate interests or to comply with a legal obligation. There will be certain circumstances where the right does not apply to you under law and we will review this when we consider a request.

12.4 We may request you provide us with information necessary to confirm your identity and ensure your right to access the information (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is another appropriate security measure to ensure that personal information is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it.

13.2 To withdraw your consent, please contact Accelya´s privacy team at [email protected].

14. Keeping us updated

It is important that the personal information we hold about you is accurate and current. Please ensure that any personal information you share with us (or third parties engaged by us) is accurate, and keep us informed if your personal information changes during your working relationship with us.

15. Security

15.1 The Company is committed to protecting personal information from loss, misuse, disclosure, alteration, unauthorised access and destruction and takes appropriate administrative, physical and technical precautions to safeguard the confidentiality and security of personal information. Although we make every effort to protect the personal information which you provide to us, the transmission of information over the internet is not completely secure. As such, you acknowledge that we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information transmitted to us over the internet that any such transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your personal information, we will use strict procedures and security features to prevent unauthorised access.

15.2 Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password which enables you to access any account with us, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. We ask you not to share a password with anyone.

16. Automated decision-making

Automated decision-making takes place when an electronic system uses personal information to make a decision without human intervention, and that decision produces a legal or similarly significant effect on you (for example, this would be the case if we decided whether to offer you a job solely based on automated processing of your personal information). We do not engage in that type of automated decision-making and we will notify you in writing if this position changes.

17. Third party websites

You may, from time to time, during your application, access links to or other websites operated by third parties (e.g. Workday or CCAT exams providers). Please note that this Privacy Notice only applies to the personal information that we collect from or about you and we cannot be responsible for personal information collected and stored by third parties. Third party websites have their own terms and conditions and privacy policies, and you should read these carefully before you submit any personal information to these websites. We do not endorse or otherwise accept any responsibility or liability for the content of such third party websites or third party terms and conditions or policies.

18. Changes to our Privacy Notice

This Privacy Notice may be amended from time to time. Any changes we make to this Privacy Notice in the future will be posted on our website. Please check back frequently to see any updates or changes.

19. Further questions or making a complaint

19.1 If you have any queries or complaints about our collection, use or storage of your personal information, or if you wish to exercise any of your rights in relation to your personal information, please contact Accelya’s privacy team, whose email address is [email protected]. We will investigate and attempt to resolve any such complaint or dispute regarding the use or disclosure of your personal information.

19.2 Local laws may allow you to also make a complaint to the relevant local data protection supervisory authority (e.g. in the UK, the Information Commissioner’s Office (https://ico.org.uk/)). Alternatively, you may seek a remedy through local courts if you believe your rights have been breached.

The practices described in this Privacy Notice statement are current personal information protection policies, as of 01 February 2024.

If you have any questions about this Privacy Notice, please contact the Human Resources team at the Accelya company for which you have applied to work or the data protection officer for Accelya, whose email address is [email protected].

Appendix 1 – Lawful Grounds for processing Personal Data

Accelya Modern Slavery Statement 2023

This statement is made pursuant to the requirements of the UK Modern Slavery Act of 2015 and covers Accelya Global Limited (“Accelya“) and all affiliated companies under its control (the “Accelya Group“).

It is our responsibility, both as a business and as individuals, to tackle Modern Slavery. We will not tolerate, facilitate or condone any form of Modern Slavery within our organisation or anywhere in our supply chain.

Background to Accelya

Accelya is a leading global technology and service provider to the air transport industry delivering innovative change at speed and scale.

The company´s market-leading passenger, cargo, and industry platforms support airline retailing from offer to settlement, both above and below the wing.

Over 250 airline customers count on Accelya, with operations spread across nine countries and employing over 2,000 professionals worldwide.

For more than 40 years, Accelya has been the industry’s partner for change, simplifying airline financial and commercial processes and empowering the air transport community to take better control of the future.

Whether partnering with IATA on industry-wide initiatives or enabling digital transformation to simplify airline processes, Accelya drives the airline industry forward and proudly puts control back in the hands of airlines so they can move further, faster.

Our Supply Chain

We have a global complex and diverse supply chain, the majority of our business is the provision of professional and technological services to major business across the world and as such we do not produce physical goods.

We source goods and services from a global, diverse and complex supply chain.

The top 20 suppliers to the Accelya Group, who mostly provide professional services or IT software / hardware, approximately account for 75% of our spend. While many of these suppliers are based outside the UK, we still consider the risk of slavery and human trafficking within our supply chain to be low based on factors such as sector (operating in the IT industry) and types of suppliers (IT and support functions, mostly large international companies with their own published codes of conduct and modern slavery transparency statements).

Our approach to tackling Modern Slavery

We have a zero tolerance policy to Modern slavery and have not identified it within our business or with any third party or customer we deal with.

Since the financial year ending 2019 and the introduction of our Group Code of Conduct we have taken a number of steps to improve our approach to identifying and raising awareness of Modern slavery.

We have employed a Head of Ethics and Compliance to lead our approach to Modern Slavery and they have integrated Modern Slavery awareness into our annual Code of Conduct training which has been completed by more than 97% of our employees.

We will continue to review our policies and procedures in the financial year ending June 2024 with a particular focus on developing a specific Modern Slavery Policy, updated Group Code of Conduct,  Supplier Code of Conduct and Purchasing Policy, including specific clauses on Modern Slavery, which will be applied to all suppliers and to which they must all adhere.

This statement is made pursuant to section 54(1) of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and constitutes our transparency in supply chain statement for the financial year ending 30 June 2023

On behalf of Accelya Group Limited

Sam Gilliland – Chief Executive Officer
