(see "WILL YOUR INFORMATION BE SHARED WITH ANYONE?" above), in and other countries.
If you are a resident in the European Economic Area, then these countries may not necessarily
have data protection laws or other similar laws as comprehensive as those in your country. We
will however take all necessary measures to protect your personal information in accordance with
this privacy notice and applicable law.
European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses:
We have implemented measures to protect your personal information, including by using the
European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses for transfers of personal information between
our group companies and between us and our third-party providers. These clauses require all
recipients to protect all personal information that they process originating from the EEA in
accordance with European data protection laws and regulations. Our Standard Contractual Clauses

(such as tax, accounting or other legal requirements). No purpose in this notice will require us
keeping your personal information for longer than the period of time in which users have an
account with us.
When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will
either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because
your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your
personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

technical security measures.
We have implemented appropriate technical and organizational security measures designed to
protect the security of any personal information we process. However, despite our safeguards and
efforts to secure your information, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information
storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so we cannot promise or guarantee that
hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our
security, and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information. Although we will do
our best to protect your personal information, transmission of personal information to and from
our Website is at your own risk. You should only access the Website within a secure environment.

circumstances, you may also have the right to object to the processing of your personal
information. To make such a request, please use the contact details provided below. We will
consider and act upon any request in accordance with applicable data protection laws.
If we are relying on your consent to process your personal information, you have the right to
withdraw your consent at any time. Please note however that this will not affect the lawfulness
of the processing before its withdrawal, nor will it affect the processing of your personal
information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent.

your personal information, you also have the right to complain to your local data protection

12. CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES
Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a
Do-Not-Track ("DNT") feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not
to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage no
uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As
such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that
automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online
tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in
a revised version of this privacy notice.

charge, information about categories of personal information (if any) we disclosed to third
