6. INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS

Many of our third parties service providers (such as our CRM, contract signing software, back-up cloud server, for example) 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 do our best to ensure a similar degree of security of data by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:
  • We will only transfer your personal data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the European Commission; or
  • Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts or codes of conduct or certification mechanisms approved by the European Commission which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe
If none of the above safeguards is available, we may request your explicit consent to the specific transfer. You will have the right to withdraw this consent at any time.
Please email us at leyla@executiveva.co.uk if you want further information on the specific mechanism used by us when transferring your personal data out of the EEA.
 
7. DATA SECURITY
