Personal Data is primarily processed within the EU/EEA. Where personal data is transferred outside of the EU to Data Processors, we will implement data processing agreements and standard contractual clauses to safeguard data protection rights. Currently, data transfers between the UK and the EU are covered under the GDPR and the transition arrangement between the two parties. Depending on the outcome of the UK withdrawal negotiations, the UK and the EU may not share the same data protection regime. In the event of no data protection agreements between the UK and the EU, we will implement appropriate safeguards, such as standard contractual clauses for data transfers.
We may change and update this notice from time to time, in whole or in part, at our sole discretion or to fulfil a legal obligation. We encourage you to check our website periodically to view the most recent version of this statement.
