If personal data is transferred to a third country, Qnister will always ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place to ensure the secure processing of your personal data. Such appropriate safeguards include, but are not limited to, ensuring:

- that the European Commission has decided that the country outside of the EU/EEA to which your personal data are transferred has an adequate level of protection, which corresponds to the level of protection afforded by the GDPR, or

- that we enter into the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses (SCCs) with the recipient of the personal data outside the EU/EEA.

Where necessary, we take technical and organizational measures so that the protection of your personal data remains during the transfer to the relevant country outside the EU/EEA. Due to for instance American security regulations there is still some risk that American agencies, in order to fight crimes or protect national security, may access the personal data transferred to the US despite our technical and organizational measures taken.
