INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS OF PERSONAL DATA
Your Personal Data may be stored and processed in any country where we have facilities, affiliates, or in which we engage Service Providers. We will only transfer your Personal Data where we have established a legal basis, but you should not use this website or our Services if you do not want your Personal Data potentially transferred, or otherwise processed, in countries outside of your country of residence, which may have data protection rules that are different from those of your country.
