Whenever we transfer personal data to a destination outside EEA, we take applicable legal measures to:
- Make sure that the data transfer complies with applicable law.
- Ensure that your data has the same level of protection as it has in the EU/EEA.
To ensure that each data transfer complies with mobile applicable EU/EEA legislation, we use the following legal mechanism:

When we transfer your data to the UK, we do so on the basis of an adequacy decision issued by the European Commission in accordance with Article 45 of GDPR. The decision confirms that the regulatory requirements in these countries ensure an adequate level of protection for your personal data. For transfers to all other countries, we rely on standard data protection clauses adopted by the European Commission.
