Endo respects the privacy of its job applicants (“you”) and understands that you care about how we collect, use, and share information when you apply for a job. This Job Applicant Privacy Notice (“Privacy Notice”) explains how Endo International plc and its affiliates and subsidiaries ("we," "us," "our," "Endo") collect, use, store, share, and protect personal information (“PI”) obtained in connection with applying for a job at Endo.

1. SCOPE
This Privacy Notice applies to you because you are applying to work with us (whether as an employee, agency worker, consultant, independent contractor, or director). It applies to all personal information collected, stored, shared, retained, or otherwise used (i.e., processed) by us.
This Privacy Notice does not form part of any offer of employment or contract of employment and does not confer any contractual right on you or place any contractual obligation on us.
This Privacy Notice is a general guide on how Endo processes your personal information. Endo complies with applicable data protection and privacy laws in jurisdictions where it operates.
2. WHAT IS PERSONAL INFORMATION?
“Personal Information” is a broad term that covers any information that identifies, relates to, describes, is capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, to an identified or identifiable individual.
3. INFORMATION WE COLLECT AND HOW WE COLLECT IT
Endo collects PI from you in connection with the job application that you submit to us when applying for a job via the Endo Careers Website (“Site”), powered by Workday (including from application forms, CV or résumé), third parties in connection with our relationship with you (for example, references or background checks), or through interviews and/or our recruitment process. We may also collect information about you from publicly available social media profiles, such as content from external job bulletin boards. This information may include:

- Username and password;
- CV or résumé that you upload;
- Previous work experience, education information, knowledge, skills, professional certificates, professional licenses, etc.;
- Referral names and contact information;
- Voluntary disclosure information you provide on your application form; and

4. HOW WE USE YOUR INFORMATION
We may use the PI we collect from or about you to:
- Carry out our job application and recruitment process, including background checks (where applicable), drug screenings (where applicable), verifying your information, and/or conducting research about your educational and professional background;

We only process such information for the purposes of carrying out the obligations, and exercising specific rights, of Endo or of a prospective employee under employment law or for the assessment of your working capacity. If you are offered and accept employment with or placement at Endo, the PI collected during the recruitment process may become part of your employment record.
We will only process data relating to your criminal convictions or involvement in criminal proceedings when permitted by law, or where provided voluntarily by you.
5. COLLECTING YOUR CONSENT
We may process your PI without your knowledge or consent only where required by applicable law, and from time to time we may: (i) ask for your consent to use your PI for a specific purpose; and/or (ii) process your PI in order to protect your vital interests or the interests of another. If we do so, we will provide notice to you. We will also inform you about the fact that you can revoke your consent at any time and how you should do that. Once we have received notification that you have withdrawn your consent, we will no longer process your application and, subject to our retention policy, we will dispose of your personal information securely.
If you do not provide us with your personal information, we may not be able to process your job application or assess your suitability for a particular role, comply with our legal obligations, or manage our business. We will tell you when we ask for information that is a statutory or contractual requirement or needed to comply with our legal obligations.
6. HOW WE SHARE YOUR INFORMATION
We may share your personal information with:
- Our affiliates or subsidiaries;
- Our contractors, service providers, and other third parties to assist in the administration, processing, and management of certain activities pertaining to prospective employees (i.e., background check service provider) in connection with the application and recruitment process;
- Individuals or companies employed by Endo to carry out specific services, functions, or consultancy work, including external reference agencies and other financial institutions;

7. HOW WE PROTECT AND STORE INFORMATION
Endo deploys administrative, physical and technical safeguards intended to help protect the confidentiality of your personal information, including security to protect against unlawful or unauthorized processing of personal information, and against the accidental loss of, or damage to, your personal information. Unfortunately, however, no safeguards are foolproof.
You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and other authentication involved in the application and recruitment process. Endo will treat access to our career sites through your account credentials as authorized by you. Unauthorized access to password-protected or secure areas is prohibited and may lead to criminal prosecution. We may suspend your use of all or part of our Sites without notice if we suspect or detect any breach of security. If you believe that information you provided to us is no longer secure, please notify us immediately using the contact information provided below.
We securely store your personal information in a centralized database, with controlled access to such database. Access to personal information is restricted to individuals who have a legitimate and justifiable reason to view such information. We store and retain information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which you provided the information, to comply with legal obligations, to resolve disputes, to enforce our agreements with you, and for similar essential purposes.
8. PERSONAL INFORMATION RETENTION
Personal Information will be stored for as long as required to satisfy the purposes outlined in this Privacy Notice or for as long as we have a legitimate interest for which it was collected, unless a longer period is necessary for our legal obligations or for the exercise or defense of legal claims.
Our retention practices are reviewed and updated from time to time in line with legal requirements and best practices. Further information can be obtained from the Legal Department.
9. TRANSFER OF PERSONAL INFORMATION OUTSIDE THE EEA
The personal information that we collect from you may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”) for the purposes described above. Due to the global nature of our business, your personal information may be disclosed and shared with our affiliates and subsidiaries outside the EEA, including in the United States. It may also be processed by personnel operating outside the EEA who work for us or for one of our contractors, service providers, or third parties who act on our behalf. We will ensure suitable safeguards are in place to protect the privacy and integrity of your personal information in such circumstances.
10. YOUR RIGHTS UNDER APPLICABLE DATA PROTECTION LAWS

- The right to object enables you to object to the processing your personal information on the basis of our legitimate interests (or those of a third party); and
- The right to data portability enables you to request us to transmit personal information that you have provided to us, to a third party, or to give you a copy of it so that you can transmit it to a third party, where technically feasible.
To exercise your rights, you can make such a request by sending an email to privacy@endo.com or by calling us at (800) 462-ENDO (3636). Please include your full name, mailing address, email address, phone number, date of birth (month, day), relationship to Endo (i.e., former employee, prospective employee, etc.), and type of request (i.e., Request to Know/Access, Request to Delete). We will respond to your request in accordance with the requirements of applicable data protection and privacy laws.
We may request additional information from you in order to verify your identity and confirm that the request is valid. The information we require may vary depending on your relationship to us. If we are unable to verify your identity using this process, we will provide you with an explanation and describe additional steps you may take to assist us in attempting to verify your request.
If you request deletion of your personal information, we will assess the request to confirm whether there are any reasons for which we are required to retain the information about you, including for specific business purposes, to fulfil a legal obligation, or other reasons permitted under the law. If we are not able to service your deletion request, we will provide you with an explanation.
Please note, these rights may be limited. We have the right to refuse your request where there is a basis to do so in law; or if your request is manifestly unfounded or excessive; or to the extent necessary for important objectives of public interest; or if fulfilling your request would reveal personal information about another individual.

12. DATA COLLECTION TECHNOLOGY
We use data collection technology to collect information about you and your use of our Sites. Data collection technology deployed through the Site may include cookies and web beacons.
A cookie is a small text file that is sent to or accessed from your web browser or your computer’s hard drive. A cookie typically contains the name of the domain (internet location) from which the cookie originated, the “lifetime” of the cookie (i.e., when it expires) and a randomly generated unique number or similar identifier. A cookie also may contain information about your computer, such as user settings, browsing history, and activities conducted while using the Site. A web beacon (also called a pixel tag or clear GIF) is a piece of computer code that enables us to monitor user activity and website traffic. (To learn more about cookies and web beacons, visit www.allaboutcookies.org). Data collection technology helps improve functionality and determine which features users prefer by collecting information about your browser type, domain name of your Internet service provider, websites visited before and after visiting the Site, and web pages viewed. We may compile statistics about use of the Site to help us analyze technical and navigational information about the Site and to detect and prevent fraud.
Your Control of Cookies: Some web browsers (including some mobile web browsers) provide settings that allow you to control or reject cookies or to alert you when a cookie is placed on your device. To learn more, visit www.allaboutcookies.org/how-to-manage-cookies. Although you are not required to accept cookies or mobile device identifiers, if you block or reject them, you may not have access to all features available through the Site. For more information about how to opt out of cookies, visit www.allaboutcookies.org.
Do Not Track: Some web browsers (including Safari, Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Chrome) incorporate a “Do Not Track” (“DNT”) or similar feature that signals to websites that a user does not want their online activity and behavior tracked. If a website that responds to a particular DNT signal receives the DNT signal, the browser can block that website from collecting certain information about the browser’s user. Not all browsers offer a DNT option, and DNT signals are not yet uniform. For this reason, many website operators, including Endo, do not respond to DNT signals.
13. LINKS TO OTHER WEBSITES AND SERVICES
The Site may include links to third-party websites and services that are not operated by us, such as for recordings of earning reports. When you click these links, you are navigating away from the Site. A link to a third-party website or service does not mean that we endorse it, or the quality or accuracy of information presented on it. If you decide to visit a third-party website or service, you are subject to its privacy practices and policies, not ours. This Privacy Notice does not apply to any personal information that you provide to these other websites and services.
14. THESE SERVICES ARE NOT FOR CHILDREN
You must be at least the age of majority in your place of residence to use our Site. The Site is not directed to or intended for use by minors. Consistent with the requirements of the U.S. Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act, if we learn that we received any information directly from a child under age 13 without their parent’s verified consent, we will use that information only to inform the child (their parent or legal guardian) that the child cannot use the Site.
If you are a parent or guardian of a minor who has provided information without your knowledge or consent, you may submit a request to remove the minor’s information by emailing us at privacy@endo.com.
15. CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY NOTICE
The Effective Date of this Privacy Notice is set forth at the top of this webpage. We reserve the right to change our Privacy Notice as business needs or applicable laws require. If Endo makes material changes to the way we use personal information, Endo will (unless otherwise required by law) attempt to notify you through a notice posted at www.endo.com/privacy-legal before the changes take effect. Your continued use of our Site after the Effective Date of the revised Privacy Notice constitutes your acceptance of the revised Privacy Notice. The revised Privacy Notice replaces and supersedes all previous versions.
