  • For personal information collected in the United Kingdom (UK), we will ensure that the transfer is subject to appropriate safeguards or is otherwise permitted under applicable law. For example, the jurisdiction to which the personal information is transferred may be approved by the UK Government or the recipient may have agreed to standard contractual clauses approved by the UK Government that oblige them to protect the personal information.
