Outside of the provision of services, we do use the services of certain third parties to ensure the functionality of our services and the Website.

We have a legal obligation to ensure that your Personal Data is kept accurate and up to date. We kindly ask you to assist us to comply with this obligation by ensuring that you inform us of any changes that have to be made to any of your Personal Data that we are processing.

You may, at any time, exercise the following rights with respect to our processing of your Personal Data:

Right to object: You are entitled to object to certain processing of Personal Data, including for example, the processing of your Personal Data for marketing purposes or when we otherwise base our processing of you on a legitimate interest.

Right to data portability: If your Personal Data we have is being automatically processed with your consent or on the basis of a mutual contractual relationship, you may request that we provide you that Personal Data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. Moreover, you may also request that the Personal Data is transmitted to another controller. Bear in mind that the latter can only be done if that is technically feasible.

We primarily store and process Personal Data within the European Union. Nevertheless, it may at times be necessary that your Personal Data is transferred to and stored at a destination outside the European Union. It may also be processed by data processors operating outside the EU.

By submitting your Personal Data to us or by consenting to the processing of your Personal Data you agree to the processing of your data, including both data storage and data transfer, outside the EU for the purposes set out in this Policy. We will take all reasonably necessary precautions to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with the applicable Data Protection Laws. We will not store any of your Personal Data longer than necessary to fulfil the purposes set out in this Policy. For example, we may transfer your Personal Data based on:

an adequacy decision by the European Commission;
standard data protection clauses elaborated by the European Commission;
standard data protection clauses elaborated by a DPA;
using other possible safeguards and derogations where it is allowed by the applicable laws.
As with all of your Personal Data, you may request that we inform you on the details of the processing of your Personal Data on the basis of Article 15 of the GDPR. You may, as with the exercise of any your rights as a data subject, do so by contacting us via the information that has been provided at the end of this Policy.
