DATA TRANSFERS
For the reasons set forth in this Privacy Policy, the personal data that we collect may be transferred to and stored or otherwise processed by service providers outside of The United Kingdom and the EEA. While in another jurisdiction for processing, your personal data may be accessed by the courts, law enforcement, and national security authorities of that jurisdiction. These jurisdictions may not provide the same level of data protection as your home jurisdiction and may not be considered by the European Commission to offer adequate protections for personal data.
We ensure that personal data transferred outside the EEA and The United Kingdom is maintained with at least the same level of security and protection for personal data that is required under applicable law.
