  • where the recipient is located in the US, it might be a certified member of the EU-US Privacy Shield scheme; or

  • in other circumstances the law may permit us to otherwise transfer your personal data outside Europe.

 

In other circumstances the law may permit us to otherwise transfer your personal data outside the EEA. In all cases, however, we will ensure that any transfer of your personal data is compliant with data protection law.

 

You can obtain more details of the protection given to your personal data when it is transferred outside the EEA (including a copy of the standard data protection clauses which we have entered into with recipients of your personal data) by contacting us in accordance with the “How to contact us” section below.

 

6. How long we keep your personal data

 

How long we will hold your personal data for will vary and will be determined by the following criteria:

 

  • the purpose for which we are using it – we will need to keep the data for as long as is necessary for that purpose;

  • and
