Transfer of your information out of the EEA

24. We may transfer your personal information to the following which are located outside the European Economic Area (EEA).

25. Under data protection law, we can only transfer your personal data to a country or international organisation outside the EEA where:

  • the EU GDPR applies and the European Commission has decided the particular country or international organisation ensures an adequate level of protection of personal data (known as an `adequacy decision`);
  • there are appropriate safeguards in place, together with enforceable rights and effective legal remedies for data subjects; or
  • a specific exception applies under data protection law.

26. These are explained below.

Adequacy decision

27. We may transfer your personal data to certain countries, on the basis of an adequacy decision. These include:

  • all European Union countries, plus Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway (collectively known as the `EEA`);
  • Gibraltar; and
  • Andorra, Argentina, Canada, Faroe Islands, Guernsey, Israel, Isle of Man, Japan, Jersey, New Zealand, Switzerland and Uruguay.

28. The list of countries that benefit from adequacy decisions will change from time to time. We will always seek to rely on an adequacy decision, where one exists.

29. Other countries we are likely to transfer personal data to do not have the benefit of an adequacy decision. This does not necessarily mean they provide poor protection for personal data, but we must look at alternative grounds for transferring the personal data, such as ensuring appropriate safeguards are in place or relying on an exception, as explained below.

Transfers with appropriate safeguards

30. Where there is no adequacy decision, we may transfer your personal data to another country we are satisfied the transfer complies with data protection law, appropriate safeguards are in place, and enforceable rights and effective legal remedies are available for data subjects.

31. The safeguards will usually include using legally-approved standard data protection contract clauses. In relation to transfers to our overseas offices or other companies within our group, the safeguards may instead include legally binding rules and policies which have been approved by the European Commission.

Transfers under an exception

32. In the absence of an adequacy decision or appropriate safeguards, we may transfer personal data to a third country where an exception applies under relevant data protection law, for example if you have explicitly consented to the proposed transfer after having been informed of the possible risks or the transfer is necessary for the performance of a contract between us or to take pre-contract measures at your request.

33. We may also transfer information for the purpose of our compelling legitimate interests, so long as those interests are not overridden by your interests, rights and freedoms. Specific conditions apply to such transfers and we will provide relevant information if and when we seek to transfer your personal data on this ground.

34. If you would like further information please contact us. We will not otherwise transfer your personal data outside of the area comprising the EEA or to any organisation (or subordinate bodies) governed by public international law or which is set up under any agreement between two or more countries.

Keeping your personal information secure

Those processing your information will do so only in an authorised manner and are subject to a duty of confidentiality.

47. We also have procedures in place to deal with any suspected data security breach. We will notify you and any applicable regulator of a suspected data security breach where we are legally required to do so.

How to complain
