We always try to make maximum use of European suppliers and try to keep your data within Europe wherever possible. If we do have to rely on non-European third parties, we ensure that your data is as safe outside Europe as it is here. Thus, where necessary, we conclude Standard Contractual Clauses with these partners and provide additional safeguards.
