We place a high priority on data security and implement a number of security measures to protect the data that is sent, processed, and stored on our computer systems and website.

For instance, there's a possibility that your personal data will be moved to the United States. When information is shared with third-party contractors during the processing step, contractual measures are used to offer the proper protection.
