Transfer and disclosure of personal data

Data processors 
To meet the purposes of our processing of your personal data, we engage suppliers of IT services and systems, website services, marketing services (e.g. marketing automation and optimisation tools and services for email marketing), CRM system, prospecting tools, and sales systems which process personal data on our behalf (data processors). Our data processors may only process personal data in accordance with our instructions and are required by law to take appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect the personal data. 

Aspia group companies 
We may also share personal data with other Aspia group companies to be able to fulfil our administrative purposes and to carry out the processing activities described in this document.  

Other data controllers and authorities 
We may disclose personal data to recipients other than those specified above and who act as independent data controllers (e.g. when we organise events and activities with external organisers), as well as to other recipients to comply with applicable law, a request/order by a competent court or government authority, and to ensure our legitimate interest to establish, exercise or defend legal claims. 

Transfer to third countries outside the EU/EEA 
We strive to process all personal data within the EU, but in some cases we may transfer personal data to recipients in countries outside the EU/EEA which do not have the same level of protection of personal data as in the EU. To ensure that the personal data is adequately protected, we will take necessary measures such as entering into the EU Commission’s standard contractual clauses (available here: https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/data-transfers-outside-eu/model-contracts-transfer-personal-data-third-countries_en), or ensuring that there are other appropriate security measures in place.
