4. Data Recipients in Third Countries

We and many of our affiliated entities and third-party service providers are located in the United States or other jurisdictions outside of the EU/EEA that are not subject to an unqualified adequacy decision by the EU Commission finding them to provide a level of protection of fundamental rights and freedoms that is essentially equivalent to that guaranteed within the EU.

However, to ensure an appropriate level of protection of your Personal Data, we enter into data processing and data transfer agreements with our affiliated entities and third-party service providers outside of the EU/EEA that incorporate the provisions of the Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the EU Commission or implement other appropriate safeguards with them. 

5. Data Retention

We implement appropriate retention periods for your Personal Data collected or otherwise processed on or through the Site.

Depending on the circumstances and subject to the conditions set out in the applicable law, you have, without limitation, the right to do the following in connection with our processing of your Personal Data:

• Request access to your Personal Data (commonly known as a “data subject access request”).
