5. Are your personal data transferred to third countries outside the economic area?

Some of our service providers are located in countries outside of the European Economic Area (EEA).

The location of these companies outside the EEA implies the existence of an international transfer of your personal data, which may involve a lower level of protection than that provided for in European legislation. However, from SESAME we have implemented measures to ensure that such transactions do not result in a lower level of protection of your personal data.

In this regard, service providers outside the EEA have signed the corresponding standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission („SCC„), an agreement signed between the two entities by which the non-EU company guarantees that it applies European data protection standards.

Therefore, the use of these providers does not result in a lesser degree of protection of your personal data than the use of providers located in the European Union. You can consult the content of the SCCs at the following link:

https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/publications/standard-contractual-clauses-controllers-and-processors_en

The following are the international transfers that we carry out from SESAME:
