11. Processors And International Data Transfers
Our website is hosted and maintained in the United States. If you are visiting our website from a country other than the United States, you should understand that your data submitted through or generated by your use of the website or the provision of Services will be transferred to the United States, which may not have the same data protection laws as the country in which you are located. This will necessarily result in the transfer of information across international boundaries. By visiting the website, ordering Services, or otherwise communicating electronically with us, you consent to the transfer and processing of your data as set out in this Policy in the United States.
We will only engage processors who adequately implement appropriate technical and organizational measures and who guarantee the protection of your rights. In order to ensure this, we enter into data processing agreements with our processors. This is compulsory under the data protection laws. The data processing agreement regulates, among other things, data security, confidentiality and your rights.
If your personal information are transferred to ‘third countries’ – i.e., countries outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”) – we will only do so if the third country offers an adequate level of protection. In some countries outside the EEA – which as at the date of the last update of this Policy include Andorra, Argentina, Canada (commercial organizations), Faroe Islands, Guernsey, Israel, Isle of Man, Japan, Jersey, New Zealand, Republic of Korea, Switzerland , the United Kingdom under the GDPR and Directive (EU) 2016/680, the United States (commercial organizations participating in the EU-US Data Privacy Framework) and Uruguay (for more information and up to date list of the countries please, check here) – your personal information are sufficiently protected in accordance with European data protection laws and regulations. Where this is not the case, we provide appropriate safeguards to ensure adequate data protection, such is the most recent standard contractual clauses as approved by the European Commission and by additional safeguards, a copy of which can be obtained by sending us an email to the address in the How to Contact Us section. If no appropriate safeguards are in place, we will only transfer your personal information if a legal exception applies. An example of a legal exception is explicit consent.
