The recipients of data are not only located in Switzerland. This also applies in particular to service providers that we use for the processing of personal data and their subcontractors. These have locations both in Switzerland and outside, in the EU or the EEA, but also in other countries around the world. Not all of these countries have adequate data protection. In this case, we ensure adequate protection by, for example, concluding so-called EU Model Clauses with the recipients, which you can find here . These are contractual clauses that are binding on the recipients. These are contractual clauses introduced by the European Commission to provide adequate protection for personal data in cross-border transfers. In certain cases, we may transfer data in accordance with data protection requirements even without such contracts, e.g. if you have consented to the relevant disclosure or if the disclosure is necessary for the performance of the contract, for the establishment, exercise or enforcement of legal claims or for overriding public interests.
