In our balancing of interests, we have assessed that our legitimate interest in performing the processing outweighs your interest and your fundamental rights to not have your personal data processed.

Where your personal data is processed
As a main rule, we and our suppliers and partners with whom we share your personal data only process your personal data within the EU/EEA. We have taken all commercially possible measures to ensure that personal data processing takes place within the EU/EEA where possible.
Some of our IT service providers are based outside the EU/EEA. However, we have tried to protect your personal data and reduce the risk of transfer outside the EU/EEA by only handling them on the IT service provider's servers within the EU/EEA - in exceptional cases there is still a risk that your personal data will be transferred to the country where our suppliers are based.
In the above situation, such transfer only takes place in accordance with applicable data protection legislation, which means that we will transfer your personal data outside the EU/EEA when we can ensure an adequate level of protection for your personal data. We will transfer your personal data according to the standard contractual clauses (Article 46.2 (c) of the GDPR), Module 2 (data controller to data processor), together with complementary measures.
