5. Data Security

We have implemented appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect the personal information we collect and process about you. The measures we use are designed to provide a level of security appropriate to the risk of processing your personal information.

6. International Data Transfers

Your information may be transferred to, and processed in, countries other than the country you live in. These countries may have data protection laws different from the laws of your country.

If we transfer your personal information to countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA), we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by implementing appropriate safeguards in line with GDPR requirements.

7. Data Retention

We retain personal information we collect from you where we have an ongoing legitimate business need to do so (for example, to provide you with a service you have requested or to comply with applicable legal, tax, or accounting requirements).

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize it or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.
