Where permitted by applicable law, we may transfer the personal data we collect about you to the United States and other jurisdictions that may have different data protection laws, or may not be deemed to provide the same level of data protection as your home country for the purposes set out in this Privacy Notice.

Where such transfers occur and the target jurisdictions have not been deemed to provide the same level of data protection by the relevant authority, we rely on legal mechanisms that require the data recipient to protect your data in accordance with the standard required in your home jurisdiction.

We reserve the right to use such anonymous and de-identified data for any legitimate business purpose without further notice to you or your consent.
