If we transmit personal data across national boundaries, we may take reasonable steps do so in compliance with any national laws that govern the cross-border transfer of data, including laws in the EU and/or the UK.

Depending on your location, our standard contractual clauses can be provided to you on request. We have implemented similar appropriate safeguards with our third party service providers and partners and further details can be provided upon request.
