Many of our external third parties are based outside the European Economic Area (EEA) so their processing of your personal data will involve a transfer of data outside the EEA.

Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the EEA, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:

- We may transfer your personal data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the European Commission.

- Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts approved by the European Commission which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe.
