We may store or transfer some or all of your personal data in countries that are not part of the European Economic Area (the “EEA” consists of all EU member states, plus Norway, Iceland, and Liechtenstein). These are known as “third countries” and may not have data protection laws that are as strong as those in the UK and/or the EEA. This means that we will take additional steps in order to ensure that your personal data is treated just as safely and securely as it would be within the UK and under the GDPR as follows.
Where we transfer your data to a third party based in the US, this is only with Third Parties that are part of the EU-US Privacy Shield. This requires that third party to provide data protection to standards similar to those in Europe. More information is available from the European Commission.
Please contact us using the details below in Part 16 for further information about the particular data protection mechanism used by us when transferring your personal data to a third country.
The security of your personal data is essential to us, and to protect your data, we take a number of important measures, including the following:
• Secure Servers/database
• Websites on SSL (https).
• Server/database software upgrades
• Encrypted passwords
• All backups are performed in three stages:
• A) A dump is created locally where the container lives on our server.
• B) All data, including files such as dumps, code, images and other assets are encrypted locally
• C) Encrypted files are sent to cloud based servers within the EU which are an infrastructure made of multiple servers.
11. Do You Share My Personal Data?
We contract with the other third parties for the following reasons In some cases those third parties may require access to some or all of your personal data that we hold.
• Email Service Provider - for the purpose of sending Our emails

If any of your personal data is required by a third party, as described above, we will take steps to ensure that your personal data is handled safely, securely, and in accordance with your rights, our obligations, and the third party’s obligations under the law.
If any personal data is transferred outside of the EEA, we will take suitable steps in order to ensure that your personal data is treated just as safely and securely as it would be within the UK and under the GDPR, as explained above in Part 10.
In some limited circumstances, we may be legally required to share certain personal data, which might include yours, if we are involved in legal proceedings or complying with legal obligations, a court order, or the instructions of a government authority.
