According to said Recital (49), network and<br \/>information security means the ability of a network or of an information system to resist events, attacks or<br \/>unlawful or malicious actions that could compromise the availability, authenticity, integrity and confidentiality of<br \/>stored or transmitted data, or the security of the related services offered by, or accessible via those networks and<br \/>systems.<\/p>\n<p>Both as an organization in our own right, and as a provider of technologies and services which may<br \/>include hosted and managed computer emergency and security incident response services, it is in our legitimate<br \/>interests as well as in our customers\u2019, as laid down in Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, to collect and process Personal<br \/>Data to the extent strictly necessary and proportionate for the purposes of ensuring the security of our own, and<br \/>of our customers\u2019 networks and information systems. This includes the development of threat intelligence<br \/>resources aimed at maintaining and improving on an ongoing basis the ability of networks and systems to resist<br \/>unlawful or malicious actions and other harmful events (\u201ccyber-threats\u201d). The Personal Data we process for said<br \/>purposes includes, without limitation, network traffic data related to cyber-threats such as:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 sender email addresses (e.g., of sources of SPAM);<br \/>\u2022 recipient email addresses (e.g., of victims of targeted email cyberattacks);<br \/>\u2022 reply-to email addresses (e.g., as configured by cybercriminals sending malicious email);<br \/>\u2022 filenames and execution paths (e.g., of malicious or otherwise harmful executable files attached to<br \/>emails);<br \/>\u2022 URLs and associated page titles (e.g., of web pages broadcasting or hosting malicious or otherwise<br \/>harmful contents); and\/or<br \/>\u2022 IP addresses (e.g., of web servers and connected devices involved in the generation, distribution,<br \/>conveyance, hosting, caching or other storage of cyber-threats such as malicious or otherwise harmful<br \/>contents).<\/p>\n<p>Depending on the context in which such data is collected, it may contain Personal Data concerning you or any<br \/>other data subjects. However, in such cases, we will process the data concerned only to the extent strictly<br \/>necessary and proportionate to the purposes of detecting, blocking, reporting (by removing any personally<br \/>identifiable elements) and mitigating the cyber-threats of concern to you, and to all organizations relying on our<br \/>products and services to secure their networks and systems. When processing Personal Data in this context, we<br \/>will not seek to identify a data subject unless strictly indispensable to the remediation of the cyber-threats<br \/>concerned, or required by law.<\/p>\n<p>If you believe that your Personal Data was unduly collected or is unduly processed by Alchemy Utilities Limited for such<br \/>purposes, please refer to the \u201cYour Rights\u201d and \u201cContact Us\u201d sections below.

It is our compelling legitimate interests to protect our organization and our<br \/>customers from cyber threats, and therefore our interest may override your objection, rectification or erasure<br \/>requests until you demonstrate the measures necessary to dissociate your Personal Data from any identified<br \/>cyber-threat.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Marketing and Community Networking<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Alchemy Utilities Limited has a legitimate interest in promoting our commercial offerings and to optimize the delivery of<br \/>communications to that effect to our customers and audiences that are most likely to find them relevant.

Such<br \/>automatically-assigned reputation scores may be leveraged by you, by Alchemy Utilities Limited, by our partners and by<br \/>other customers to detect, block and mitigate the identified cyber-threats. They could therefore result in our<br \/>products and services blocking network traffic coming from or going to such URLs and IP addresses.
