Weshare your data within the group of companies of which we area part. Where this involves the transfer of personal data outside the EEA, oursister companies we will ensure that personal data is protected by requiring all companies within the group to follow the same rules with respect to personal data usage. These are known as “binding corporate rules”. More information on binding corporate rules is available from the European Commission.
