I live in the EU and the company I work at has been bought out by an american company. They now want me to sign a document that lets them transfer my personal data from my employer to the USA. They want my Name, full address and birthday. It says that they need this for some “compliance regulation” which includes the prevention of terrorism (the ol’ classic). I feel uncomfortable giving them “explicit permission” to share this data even if it is done under “highest possible security measures” which, if they are not possible, might as well be none. I just started my apprenticeship, so they could fire me without providing a reason if I do not sign. Any help is well appreciated.
I know people have been stating it’s okay to do it (it really is), but you’re asking for help. I think you know what your two options are (give it to them, or quit) you just don’t want to or aren’t ready to hear them and are hoping for a magical third option which realistically doesn’t exist.
Yeah no, it is not that deep. I just did not know if I could not sign it. Appears I have to.
