If data is transferred to locations whose registered office or place of data processing is not located in a member state of the European Union or in another contracting state of the Agreement on the European Economic Area, we will ensure that outside of legally permitted exceptional cases, the recipient will have either an adequate level of data protection before disclosure (e.g. through an adequacy decision of the European Commission or through suitable guarantees such as the agreement of so-called EU standard contractual clauses of the European Union with the recipient).
