Regional Privacy Addendum

This candidate document is provided for legal and operational review. It is not effective, does not replace any existing agreement, and must not be used to collect consent until TCW records final approval and a publication date.

This addendum does not reduce any right in the global Privacy Notice. Regional labels such as controller, processor, business, service provider, personal information and personal data have the meanings assigned by applicable law. TCW may ask for country or state information only to route a request and apply the correct rule.

People in these regions may have rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability and objection, rights relating to consent and solely automated significant decisions, and the right to complain to a supervisory authority. TCW's lawful bases are set out by purpose in the Privacy Notice. Objections to direct marketing are honored without balancing; other legitimate-interest objections are assessed under applicable law.

If TCW is legally required to appoint an EU or UK representative or data-protection officer, their verified contact information must be published before the relevant launch. Restricted transfers require an approved mechanism and documented safeguards. Final launch review must confirm those arrangements rather than rely on this draft as proof.

Subject to scope and exceptions, California residents may request to know categories and specific pieces of information, sources, business purposes and recipients; correct inaccurate information; delete information; opt out of sale or sharing; limit certain sensitive-information uses; and receive equal service. TCW does not currently sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising and does not use sensitive information to infer characteristics outside permitted service and safety purposes.

TCW will disclose request metrics and financial-incentive terms if legally required. A closed-loop service credit is not permission to use personal information; any program that qualifies as a financial incentive must have a separate, legally reviewed notice and opt-in.

Residents of states with comprehensive privacy laws may have rights to access, correct, delete or obtain a copy, opt out of targeted advertising, sale or certain profiling, and appeal a denied request. TCW will recognize applicable universal opt-out mechanisms for processing covered by those laws. Because TCW does not currently sell or share data for cross-context ads, the principal available controls are account, marketing and privacy-request controls.

TCW is accountable for personal information under its control; identifies purposes; seeks meaningful consent where required; limits collection, use, disclosure and retention; uses safeguards; provides openness and access; and offers a way to challenge compliance. Consent may be withdrawn subject to legal or contractual restrictions and reasonable notice. Cross-border processing is described in the Privacy Notice.

People protected by Brazil's LGPD may request confirmation, access, correction, anonymization, blocking or deletion of unnecessary or unlawfully processed data, portability where regulated, information about sharing and consent consequences, withdrawal of consent, review of relevant automated decisions and information about criteria. TCW will identify the controller contact and any legally required local representative or officer before applicable launch.

Individuals may request access and correction and may complain about handling of personal information. TCW will take reasonable steps to ensure overseas recipients are handled consistently with applicable rules and will describe categories of likely overseas locations when required. If automated decision disclosures become legally applicable, TCW will add them before the relevant processing begins.

Before offering accounts in India or another South Asian jurisdiction, TCW must confirm applicable notice, consent, grievance, security, cross-border, significant-data-fiduciary, age and deletion duties under the law then in force. Where India's Digital Personal Data Protection framework applies, TCW will provide a clear itemized notice, a way to withdraw consent as easily as it was given, access to grievance redress, correction and erasure controls, and any required local contact. TCW will not claim an exemption or effective-date status without a documented legal review.

People may have rights to notice, access, correction, deletion, suspension or objection, and jurisdictions may require consent or specific safeguards for overseas transfers, sensitive information, identifiers, marketing and breach notice. TCW must verify the applicable controller or business contact, transfer disclosures, response periods and local-language requirements before enabling covered processing. The general notice does not by itself satisfy a country-specific registration, representative or certification duty.

Where South Africa's POPIA or another national privacy law applies, TCW will process information for a documented lawful purpose, limit collection and retention, use appropriate safeguards, support applicable access, correction, objection and complaint rights, and assess cross-border transfer conditions. Countries may require a local representative, regulator registration, consent, localization or approval before transfer; the affected feature must remain unavailable until those requirements are verified.

Argentina, Colombia, Mexico and other Latin American jurisdictions provide distinct notice, consent, access, correction, deletion, objection, transfer, registration and complaint rules. TCW will apply mandatory local rights and publish any required local contact or transfer disclosure before launching the relevant feature. The Brazil section does not stand in for another country's law.

TCW applies the global Privacy Notice everywhere and honors additional mandatory rights where the service is offered. A feature may be unavailable until TCW can meet local registration, data-localization, consumer, age, payments, employment, marketplace or representative requirements. This addendum is not a claim that every TCW feature is launched in every country.

Send requests to info@talentconnect.world or use an authenticated privacy control. State the right and country or state involved, but do not email identity documents unless TCW provides a protected channel. TCW will verify only as necessary, keep a request log, respond within the applicable period and provide an appeal method where required.
